Failure IS An Option! Failing In February.

I’ve been doing some life coaching through Life Compass, which gives me 2 coaching calls a month.  My coach is Randee Krumwiede, and she is really great.  This month we are working through Failure.  Using Failure as the foundation to success.  Because without failure you can not know success.   I was going to write about this earlier today because the topic really hit home for me, but I kept putting it off.  Not because we were busy with work, though we were in the morning.  No I didn’t write about it because it was a scary topic for me…. I was failing!

Thankful Thursday – My Spirituality

I’ve been reading a book, “A Course In Weight Loss: 21 Spiritual Lessons for Surrendering Your Weight Forever” by Marianne Williamson, that has been really speaking to my soul.  It’s not an easy book to get through because each chapter is a different lesson on  reconnecting yourself to the Divine and letting go of all the emotional pain that has caused you to gain weight.  So although I’ve been reading the book for a few weeks, I’m barely into the 3 chapter.  This is a true WORK book.  The part of chapter 3 that I’m in right now, talks about letting go and giving to God (or whatever you want to call your higher power) all the things that are too much for you to handle.  I found it very fortuitous (maybe even coincidental) that I”m reading that part of the chapter the night before “Thankful Thursday”.  Because now I have what I’m thankful for!  I am very thankful for the Divine in my life.

Dreamcatchers for Abused Children Fundraiser

Dreamcatchers for Abused Children is a non-profit organization that helps to save, and prevent child abuse of all kinds.  They are an organization that I found out about through MommyPR.  They do wonderful work and help to spread news, information and educate the public about child abuse.  For a limited time One Busy Moma is helping them with a fundraiser to provide Scentsy Buddies to abused children.  Let’s help them spread the word and give a little love and comfort to children who have none.

365 Days of Thank Yous – Double Post

This weekend was a nice one.  I got to see one of my best friends and her new little baby, got to spend some “quality” time with Steve, and even got to meet one of my long time customers face to face.  There’s so many people I have to say thank you to, I don’t know where to start!  Since I didn’t post yesterday, I figured I’d do a double helping of thanks though!  Maybe more.  ;)

Thank You!

The other day we received in the mail a wonderful Thank You note from Steve’s sister.  She was thanking us for the gifts we sent them for Christmas.  Along with her note was another note from her eldest step-daughter, thanking us for her gift as well.  It was so sweet.  Steve’s mom also sent us a thank you card, thanking us for the gifts and the time she spent with us over the holidays.

Inspiration Comes From The Strangest Places

So here’s our brand new (new to us) Lincoln Towncar.  We bought it the day before New Years Eve!  Believe it or not, we don’t owe anything on it either!  That’s right, NO car payments!!  WOOT!  We traded in my cute, sweet, adorable Beetle and paid a few K in cash and we own it outright!  That’s a testament to how well our business is doing, because we didn’t sacrifice or really even save for this!  No, we still have savings in the bank, money for our business, money for rent, bills and fun on TOP of buying this car!

Happy New Year!!

This year instead of making resolutions, I’m making goals.  Every year I’ve made resolutions and end up failing at them.  Of course that makes me feel horrible and ends up making things worse, such as gaining weight.  LOL!  When I make a resolution to lose weight, I fail and gain weight instead.  Not productive at all.  So this year, instead of making resolutions I’m making goals.

Finding Direction

I have found myself a little loss lately.  I’ve thought about blogging, but really, my motivation to write, blog, and talk has been lacking.   I guess I tend to go further within when I’m trying to work through something.  It’s not usually very healthy to bury yourself when you’re having a difficult time with something, but that’s how I roll.  Half the time, I don’t even know that I’m having trouble or worrying about something.  I don’t see myself closing up, until someone or something happens to point it out.  This time I knew I was retreating, but I didn’t know why.  I’m still not sure why I’m retreating, but I know that I need to figure it out and move on!  It’s time for some change to happen!

The Woman’s Belly Book

If you’ve been reading my blog for very long, you’ll already know that I’m overweight and have been trying to lose weight and feel good about myself.  Most of the time I feel badly about my body and that’s not healthy.  But there’s another part of me that KNOWS that my bad feelings are from the inside, and about emotional issues that I haven’t quite worked out yet, not about what shape my body is in.
