From the heart...

This post was inspired by Laura Burgum

So I have just this minute ended a business call, yes, New Years day and working, I was working last night and this morning too!

Anyhoo, two things in particular are on mind 1. a question asked in the meeting was “What has this business done for you?” (HealthBabes/Just A Girl/ Juice Plus). Frequently I hear this question asked and frequently the responses are how much money someone has earned and in a short space of time, other answers I’ve forgotten now BUT that’s not the point, the point is what my answer would be. I joined the business November 2016 after being on the products for just over 4 months – I haven’t earned any money, not sold one thing and got minimal interest – sorry not really selling it am I am? Bear with me – let me tell you what I HAVE got:

I got my mojo back, I’m hopeful for the future and I have a belief in myself that I thought was lost, I take time not to stress about the little things, and when I start thinking that something I’m working on isn’t going to work I quickly give myself a mental slap and say “shut up” I’m setting goals and implementing plans on how to smash them. WHY? Because of who I work with, there is a saying in this business and it’s “Your vibe attracts your tribe” and I love the tribe I’m with. I speak with a group of women on a daily basis, and I don’t think I would've ever spoken to them had it not been for this business (correction 2 are old school friends). They lift each other up in ways I have not experienced before, self-doubt and being unsuccessful is not an option in my tribe. So quite frankly no, I haven’t made any money yet BUT I’m going to! I will try my hardest and work my but off because I want to remain apart of my new tribe. That’s how I’m promoting this business opportunity, if you’re ‘Just A Girl’ like me with big dreams, debts to pay off, holidays you want to go on and a job you want to leave, if you’re ‘Just A Girl’ who wants to feel better about themselves inside and out, feel healthier and look forward to the future then this business opportunity is for you.

The second thing on my mind that was mentioned in the meeting was how to expand your business – simplest way is to share your love for the products. That’s why I started this blog, to share my love of fruit and veg in a capsule and show how much my body has changed since being on the shakes. My skin in glowing, I have changed the way I think about food and for the first time in my life I am drinking more than 1 glass of water a day – don’t look like that, THAT’S A BIG THING FOR ME! Instead of saying “sod it” and eating crap, more often than not, I now choose the right things to eat and in fact, my body is starting to crave good food – strange but true. So it’s not just about the products and taking some magic pill, the products, plans and support provided have changed my whole outlook which has benefitted me in ways I find hard to describe.

We were told to share our goals – I didn’t want to because I felt mine was stupid or that it was too small, but the reason I’m writing this post is because I shared my thoughts with my ‘tribe’ and Laura said “Does your goal matter to you?” I said “yes” she came back with:

“Then who cares, it’s your business, your goal is important to you… Sod everyone else. Go get your goal. Don’t worry about anyone else but yourself. Your goal. Your business. Your dreams. They’re never gonna be crap because they mean something to you and that’s what’s important.”

So my goal is to make money this month, doesn’t matter how much, I’ll be happy. I want to figure out what’s working for me and carry on doing that. I personally feel that if I carry on being me and sharing more of myself it’s going to work, just might take me longer than someone else. Everyone has to walk their own path; I’ll walk mine and stay focused on my goals.
