Many times people are unsure of what it is that’ll make them happy. Here’s a trick.
Start paying attention to what doesn’t make you happy and do less of that.
Before you know it, you will gravitate towards doing more things that make you happy.
Would you say you spend time doing the things you value most?

Self care is giving the world the very best of you, instead of what’s left of you.
Make sure you’re making a little time every day to take care of you. The world needs you at your best.

Who do you speak to most every day? Yourself.
You speak to yourself more in your head, than you do to anyone else in your entire life.
So, be kind.
Be your own cheerleader, best friend, supporter.
And, if you wouldn’t say it to a friend, don’t say it to yourself.

Do you suffer from the thinking the grass is always greener on the other side?
It’s human nature to compare ourselves to others, especially because of social media.
But don’t forget, most people are showing the highlight reel.
Anytime you feel yourself comparing your life to others, stop your thoughts and think about something in your life you’re grateful for.
You’ll no longer be comparing, but rather thinking how much you enjoy your life.
Give it a try.

How often do you say, I’m too busy to_____? We all do it.
There are so many times we say we’re “too busy”.
We’re too busy to play a game with the kids, too busy to have a chat with a friend, too busy to meet for lunch, too busy to even think about slowing down.
Don’t let the life you deserve to be living go by the wayside because you’re “too busy”. It’s your life, choose how you’re spending your time.

“I’m building a life I don’t need a vacation from.”
Does that type of comment make you want to roll your eyes?
Did you ever think people who are doing that may be onto something?
Wouldn’t it be nice to not have “the Monday blues” or constantly work for the weekend?
Don’t just daydream, work to make your dreams a reality.

Are you using the same skincare that you were using five years ago?
If you said yes, it’s time for a skincare routine check-up.
Your skincare products may still be working for you, but it may be time to add a couple new things or change routines all together.
Let’s talk about skincare through the ages:
20’s – Establish a routine both morning and evening. Cleanse, use an eye cream and a day or night cream. And make sure you’re using sunscreen.
30’s – Time to step it up. Fine lines start to creep in so, it may be time to look at anti-aging moisturizers. It’s also a good idea to exfoliate once a week and treat your body with a nice body lotion.
40’s – Use products that treat signs of aging like serums and masks. And don’t forget, whatever you do to your face, do to your neck and hands, too.
50’s – Add products that focus on lifting, tightening and brightening. Continue taking care of the skin on your body including your neck, elbows, knees and feet.
60’s – Skin tends to be drier, use heavier moisturizers and avoid harsh exfoliators. Make sure you are getting skin checks at the doctors.
Is water good for your skin?
Drinking water is great for your skin, but water on the outside of your body may be a different story.
Showering, saunas/steam rooms, hot tubs and even swimming are all very drying to your skin. Hot temperatures, chemicals and soaps are the culprits. They strip your skin of the natural oils that help moisturize it.
These things are hard to avoid, so here are a few tips to keep in mind:
Avoid showering in excessively hot water. While you want to be comfortable, water that is too hot will strip the oils from you skin.
Avoid long showers. A nice, long, hot shower is the best! But not great for your skin.
Quicker showers are better.
Use a gentle body wash and only focus on the areas that really need it. Don’t scrub your skin. Unless you’re extremely dirty, your skin doesn’t need to be scrubbed.
Same with drying off, gently dry your skin with a towel.
Moisturise! Because you are removing the natural oils, it’s best to add some moisture back.
At some point we’ve all experienced sore muscles. Even light activity or participating in something your body is not used to can lead to achy muscles. And if you work out, you will have, for sure, experienced muscles so sore it’s even hard to move!
So what can we do to help our muscles? Here are three tips:
Foam rolling: can help muscles relax, breaks up knots, improves circulation and lengthen your muscles.
Stretching: can increase blood flow, reduce soreness, reduce stiffness, relax muscles and make them more flexible.
Massages: can ease inflammation, reduce soreness and improve blood flow.
Actually, these three things are good for your muscles at anytime!

Do you have a “to-do list” that’s a mile long?
Let’s look at sorting that out. Grab your to-do list and a blank paper and let’s re-do your list...
Create four categories and put the items on your list under the appropriate one:
• Doit
• Delegate it
• Delay it
• Delete it
What? Delete it? Yup! There are probably things on your list that really don’t need getting done!

Three Health and Wellness trends happening in 2020:
1. Self care
This trend goes beyond pamper days. It’s more about overall happiness in your life and the activities and experiences that
contribute to it. Eating healthy, exercising, down time and healthy relationships are all on the list.
2. Sleep
Lots of chatter about all the benefits of sleep. It’s not about all the sleep we didn’t get last night, it’s about how many hours of deep sleep we’re getting! Sleep quality is becoming top priority because of the awareness of health benefits to a full night’s sleep both short and long term.
3. Mental health
Mindfulness towards mental and emotional health is front and center. People are talking more openly about the things that are causing them stress and mental fatigue. Plus, they are taking the next step and actually getting the help they need as a part of their overall wellbeing.
These are three great trends that I think we can all stand behind!

Are you driven by caffeine?
Do you know what caffeine does to your body?
To be honest, there isn’t an easy answer (it’s fairly scientific) but, at it’s most basic it pushes your body into “fight or flight” mode by releasing adrenaline.
Not all caffeine is created equal.
Synthetic caffeine (the kind found in “those” canned energy drinks) is quickly absorbed by the body, but also quickly released by the body.
Ever experienced the crash after one of those drinks?
Helpful tip: synthetic caffeine will be listed in the ingredients as “caffeine”
Then there’s natural caffeine – derived directly from the plant it comes from.
This type of caffeine takes a little longer for our bodies to absorb, but also means you won’t get that crash feeling the synthetic kind gives you.
Helpful tip: natural caffeine will have the plant it’s derived from listed in the ingredients – could include green tea or guarana and, sometimes, coffee.
Take a second to read labels and understand the ingredients you’re putting in your body and where they come from.
What’s your favorite pick-me-up?

The month of love...let’s give a little love to our lips.
Are you a lip gloss, lip balm or lipstick person?
What about lip liner?
So many people shy away from using this because they don’t know how to. It’s much easier than you think.
And did you know a lip liner helps to keep your lipstick or lip gloss in place?
Three easy steps to applying lip liner:
- Starting on your top lip at the center, follow your lip line (or make your own line if you want to make your lips look bigger).
Do the same with the bottom lip.
- Fill in your lips, pressing lightly.
- Apply your favorite lipstick or lip gloss.
Helpful tip: make sure your lips are hydrated before you start – using a lip scrub and lip balm will help!
There you go!
See, that wasn’t too painful?

Four easy, healthy snacks that taste good, leave you satisfied and are good for you
1. Fresh Fruit
Wash all fruit before you put them away, this way they’re easy to grab when you’re hungry and you don’t have to waste time washing them!
2. Protein Bars
A great way to get a hint of sweetness and protein to hold you over until your next meal.
3. Hard boiled eggs
Packed with protein and easy to do a bunch at one time – they will keep in the fridge for up to one week.
4. Hummus
Dipping vegetables in hummus is a great snack!
Serving size is the big consideration here, make sure you’re portioning out the right amount so you don’t eat too much!

There are absolutely no excuses for not taking off your makeup at the end of the day...thanks to makeup wipes.
Makeup wipes are also great to have around for pre and post workouts. They are convenient, easy to use and great for quick clean ups.
If you wear very little makeup you may be able to get away with cleansing with just a makeup wipe. However, following up with cleanser is a good practice to remove any remaining residue.
One last thing on makeup wipes, be careful not to tug at your eyes too much. You don’t want to damage your eyelashes. Adding a bit of eye makeup remover will help remove mascara and eyeliner more easily.
Do you like this on-the-go skincare staple?

“I think I’m coming down with something.”
How often have you said that in the last month?
Taking care of you is incredibly important. If we’re not healthy, how can we do anything else effectively?
Here are some easy ways you can boost your immune system...
1. Wash your hands
Ever notice how doctors rarely get sick?! They wash their hands 10000000x a day. So wash your hands often and keep antibacterial on you when you travel.
2. Stay moisturized
Colds can enter the body through cracks in the skin, so keep your hands, lips, face, feet moisturized to keep those colds at bay.
3. Take a probiotic
More and more studies are linking everything to our gut. A healthy gut allows the rest of our body to function as it should, so make sure you’re keeping your gut clean with a probiotic.
4. Get your beauty sleep
Your body rests and replenishes itself every night, it’s why sleep is so important. Make sure you’re giving your body a chance to take care of itself.
5. Get moving
Exercising promotes an all-around healthy body, which in turn, will keep you healthier! So, get moving to keep those colds away.
6. Eat right
Make sure you’re eating foods that fuel your body. If your body is functioning at it’s best, it is more likely to ward off a cold and keep you healthy!
If you’re nice to your body and treat it right, it will keep you healthy!

Topic: How Much Did I Invest in Starting my Business?
I started my business in ______________ (season/month/year). At the time, I expected _____________ (a big financial layout/that money would be tight/that I’d have to buy a lot of products) and I was _________________ (nervous/anxious/worried about the burden on our finances), but I was pleasantly surprised.
I had to pay a small fee to join my company, which covered ________________ (set up fees/personalised website/starter pack/ training materials) but it was a drop in the ocean compared to starting a business from scratch.
Once registered, I was ready to go. There was no need for me to buy _________________ (100’s of products/personalised business stationery/expensive training courses), all I had to do was start sharing the benefits of the products with my network.
So tell me, if you could launch your own side business for as little as ______________ (insert signup costs for your business), and gain free coaching on how to make it successful, would you consider hearing more?

Topic: Why Building a Business Doesn’t Need to be Hard
You don’t need to trade your time for money. It’s all about working smart, not hard. Let me explain.
When I first started out, I felt like ________________ (I needed to know everything/I had to be on every social media platform/I had to be an expert for people to trust me).
Looking back, I realise __________________ (I just needed to know I could reach out to my business partner/I just needed to know where to find the right information to help my customers/I didn’t need to be on every platform, I just had to pick 1 and start/it was the service and care I delivered that built trust).
Today, I work smart by ________________ (putting time aside each week to learn a little more about the customers I help / nurturing the relationships I’ve built with customers and team members so they feel valued).
I no longer feel _______________ (overwhelmed by long to-do lists/like I need to know everything about every product before I can promote them/like I could lose valued customers and team members at any moment).

Topic: How My Business Changed My Life
Many people have a lot of things to say about the industry I’m in, and like any industry, there are a small percentage who give it a bad name.
But the majority of _______________ are purely in it to _________________ (help people/build a better life for their families/gain the freedom that comes from being your own boss/ create the sense of financial security that comes from having a Plan B).
The surprising bonus to becoming a _______________ is the personal growth that happens. I’m not sure there is any other industry that promotes ________________ (getting out of your comfort zone and building confidence/feeling the fear and doing it anyway/paradigm smashing for money mindset/creating huge visions for your future) as much as network marketing does.
When I look back to the person I was before I started my business, I see someone who _________________ (lacked confidence/didn’t believe in themself/was always a glass half empty/always made excuses/couldn’t see a better life being in my reach).
Today, thanks to the personal growth journey I’ve been on, I know I _______________ (am capable of achieving my dreams, no matter how big/am able to help more people than I ever imagined/am able to take life’s challenges in my stride/have a much healthier relationship with money/can inspire others to become the next level version of themselves).
Are you ready to make a shift?

Topic: When Life Gives You Lemons...
Did you ever have one of those days when nothing seems to go right?
Days when it doesn’t matter how positive you are, how much gratitude you have or how glass half full you normally are, life just keeps delivering lemons.
I had one of those days recently. I started the day with ________________ (a stubbed toe/dropped milk/water pipe leak/ burnt toast/dog poop on the carpet/whatever bad or annoying thing you can add).
Then, I had to deal with ________________ (a flat tire/being called to collect my poorly child from school/a large and unexpected bill/ emergency trip to the vet/missed parcel deliveries/your own list of things that might go wrong in your world).
But there is a silver lining to this story. While the day may have been turned on its head, ______________ (I didn’t have to negotiate time off from my day job/I was able to take time out of my day job and not feel a financial pinch) thanks to having my own business.
Isn’t it time you started working on your side hustle for those days when life gives YOU lemons?

Procrastination comes from a place of fear, so when we’re putting off things that we know we should be doing, it’s often just because we’re ________________ (scared of being judged by others/ worried that we might not get it right or do a good enough job/ concerned about our ability to handle the workload).
Beating procrastination is as simple as taking the first step. So by _______________ (writing a list of what needs to be done/taking one small action involved with the task/gathering the resources needed to complete the task) you’ll have broken the spell.
You’ll either be happy to keep going, or content with coming back to it now the first step has been taken.
Either way, you win!
Hands up who’s a procrastinator. Are you going to try this tip out?

Success for me means ______________ (being available for my family by not being tied to someone else’s schedule/having the freedom to choose where I focus my passions/having a positive impact on the people around me/being able to give and support foundations, campaigns and charities that are important to me).
I believe that when you are _____________ (following your passions/living in your purpose/doing something you truly love and believe in), life becomes a lot easier and everything falls into place. And if you’re impacting the people around you in a positive way at the same time, you’ll inspire others to follow your lead.

Everyone has those little luxuries, the things that make life infinitely better.
It might be _____________ (the fluffy pillow that supports your back when sitting at your desk/the pretty planner and stationary set you keep yourself organised with/the blue cut crystal glass you always drink your gin & tonic/wine from).
For me, it’s _____________ (the particular brand of tea/coffee I have in my favourite cup every morning/my smoothie blender that helps me kick start my day in a healthy way/my super soft and warm slippers that I slip my feet into as I head from my bed to the shower each morning). Just this very simple thing makes me so happy that I feel like I’m missing something when I don’t have it/ them.
The value that this gives me far outweighs the cost, in fact, I’d probably pay way more than I ____________ (did/have/do) to keep that luxury in my life.
