When you have a plan for your year, month, or week you expect it to go that way.  However, life is unpredictable and my motto at work is, "you've got to roll with the punches."  And I find that very true with life.  Since moving to Omaha I have been...fortunate to experience a myriad of changes and obstacles.  All of those experiences whether frustrating or so much fun have lead me to look back and feel an abundance of fulfillment.  Looking forward I see the path that I have been blessed with more clearly...why certain changes have happened and what I can do now to reach my goals in the near future.

It took me quite some time for me to sign up, like everything else, I wanted to be completely sure that investing in this company was beneficial for me.  I asked tons of questions to my sponsor, customer service via chat option on their website, and researched a ton.  I have the great support from my boyfriend who believes in it and me. He loves that I now have a business that I love and feel passionate about.   My sister will even tell you, since I was little, I've always adored gorgeous jewelry.

~Audrey Hepburn

Getting back to my smoothie metaphor...

when life gives you a bunch of different avenues to succeed, find a way to blend them together for a common goal.

Motivational quotes have always helped me. 

Let me ask you this:  How do you view life when it tries to throw you off balance?
