Include protein and carbs with every meal.

WHAT????? Did you just say carbs??

You bet I did. Carbs are needed by the body and are absolutely essential to functioning of your brain and nervous system. That’s why people who cut out carbs are always so grumpy or in a fog. Their bodies and brain can’t function properly.

That doesn’t mean go hog wild on a bag of chips. Stick to veggies, whole grains, fruits.

You need protein to help build lean muscles which increase metabolism, and it also helps keep you full longer.

You should strive for a ratio of 20-25 grams of protein, 40-45 grams of carbs, and 10 grams of healthy fats per meal.

Just this switch alone can make a HUGE difference in your weight loss success.

We are all very sad about this, but it also is a HUGE reminder that life is so very precious.

So, what does this mean for you and your business?

Live your life, NOW!!!

Is there a business idea you’ve been toying with but haven’t gotten started on? Do it now, don’t wait.

Right now, you get to design your life. What are you passionate about? What makes you happy?

Do you go to bed at night thinking, “I can’t wait to get up in the morning and be with my family”, or “work on my business”, or whatever it is that gives you those warm fuzzies?

If you haven’t started that gratitude journal, get started now. By creating this abundance, you bring even more abundance to your life.

Do wait until it’s too late and think “If only I had done that sooner”

I would love to hear what you are going to get started with. Design your life filled with passion and happiness. Share your passion with others. And most importantly, be grateful for all that you have.

Let me explain. A lot of people try to make money doing what they think they SHOULD do, not what they FEEL great about doing.

If you aren’t super excited about getting up the next day to work, then you probably aren’t being authentic.

People who are authentic follow their passions. They can’t wait to get to work. They feel such a great sense of satisfaction from what they do. In fact, they usually have to force themselves not to work because they are having so much fun.

I know that I have to pull myself away from the phone or computer because I am doing what I’m passionate about. I am being true to myself and I think people really respect that.

So, how do this transfer into wealth. Well, have you ever heard the saying “Do what you enjoy and the money will follow”? There is truth to that statement.

When you enjoy what you’re doing you tend to go all out with it. You work with enthusiasm and that makes people want to know what you’re up to.

People want to be around you when you are excited and happy, and enjoying what you’re doing to make money. People want to be a part of that. You naturally attract clients and customers.

Authentic abundance is the way to great wealth. My question to you is, why wouldn’t you do what you enjoy? and if you can make money from it, doesn’t it just make perfect sense.

Do what you love and the money will follow. Now get out there and practice authentic abundance and create great wealth doing what you love.

Successful women think in abundance. They look at this time as a time to prosper.

This is also one of the benefits of being an entrepreneur. You have control of how you deal with situations.

Look around, companies are downsizing, laying off people, even shutting down.

Is that acting with abundance? Is that a successful mindset?

NO!

That’s the scarcity mindset at work.

When everyone is cutting back and shutting down, successful women expand, do more!

Many of the most successful companies were started during a recession.

There has never been a better time to build your business. While everyone is dropping back, take a giant leap forward.

Less competition (as if you’re afraid of the competition ) People are going to be looking for what you have to offer.

Remember abundance feeds more abundance. Create your own abundance now! Don’t wait. Now’s the time to make more money than ever and create you’re fabulicious lifestyle filled with HAPPYness, more time with family, and whatever you’ve been working so hard to achieve.

I’d love to hear from you and what you’re doing to propel your business in this entrepreneur abundant economic times.

Yours in HAPPYness,

Teri

Admittedly, I am not a naturally organized person. I found that having all the clutter and the piles drained my energy. I would sit down to get started on a project and immediately get overwhelmed and accomplish nothing.

That’s not thinking like a millionaire.

Now I work from a beautiful, neat, and organized environment. I have beautiful pictures, and of course pictures of my children. My desk is clear except for my computer and a notebook and pen.

Feeling free to be creative and productive has jump started my business.

Now that’s having a millionaire mindet

Yours in HAPPYness and Success!

In the next room there was a table set up with wine, fruit, cheese, and crackers. There was a group of women in there too. Some were getting their hair done, some were getting their makeup done. The rest were standing together talking and enjoying themselves.

SO, what does this have to do with a millionaire mindset?

Well, I asked what was going on in that room, I was told it was a bridal party. Apparently they always do this for groups that are getting services there.

And they don’t get charged for it.

The owners of the company are practicing abundance. It’s brilliant!

These women came together for a service that could be provided at any number of hair places. But they were treated like queens there.

Do you think they’ll spread the word about the great service they received?

You bet they will.

The women who own the business have a millionaire mindset. Their business is booming and expanding despite the economy.

Practice abundance and it will all come back to you.

SO, you’re probably wondering why I’m sharing this on a blog about HAPPYness and being a successful entrepreneur.

Being HAPPY does not mean that you walk around bubbly and giggling 24/7. It does mean that even when bad things happen, you still feel inner peace and happiness.

Even though I felt a lot of grief over the loss, at the same time I am so grateful for the time I had with him.

When you focus on Health Abundance Passion Purpose and You, you can handle the good and the bad. Life will give you good and bad experiences. It is the bad ones that help you appreciate the good.

When you’re struggling with your business or your life, having trouble managing it all, take a look at all you have to be grateful for. Appreciate all you’ve been given.

Remember, we are only given a certain amount of time in this life. Spend YOUR time being HAPPY.

With an ever growing list of things to do it’s easy to get overwhelmed. Here is my suggestion for making the process of tackling the To Do list fun.

Whenever I read people suggestions about conquering the To Do list it always suggests tackling the biggest thing on the list first. That way you won’t need as much energy to tackle the small things. Doesn’t sound like much fun to me. My goal is to be HAPPY!

Instead, look at your to do list and see what are the small, easy, quick to do things. Pick one of them and just do it. Once it’s done, revel in your accomplishment, no matter how small. Do it again with something else small and easy on your list. Bask in the satisfaction of that accomplishment.

Do you see what I mean? It’s so much more rewarding this way. And, after each accomplishment, you’ll be more jazzed to do something else. If you get a whole bunch of things on your list done, go treat yourself to a great magazine or hot bubblebath.

See, the To Do list can be fun.

Enjoy!!
