Happy Thursday, Doll!
How are ya??
Is the morning rolling smoothly for you?? Having a warm beverage for me?? I will for you!
So first off, this will not be much of a healthy eating post as yesterday I feasted on Gummy Bears {Sugar Free of course} again…partly because of needing to nibble, and partially because we were Celebrating!
I don’t talk much about my work life of business here on the blog.
This is honestly, mostly because I was afraid, didn’t want people to look at me in the certain “light” that they may look at me in and, well, because I just didn’t think you’d be interested as I know you are in Grain Free Cookies and Motivating Mindset, but today, I’m sharing the excitement with the world!
By no means am I sharing my life story with you to brag, I want to showcase the last 9 months of my life and open up about where I came from, what we’ve achieved and how “On Track” things are right now and hopefully help someone else go after what they set in their mind.
For the last 9 months Ryan and I have been promoting a business we’ve fallen madly in love with, not just because you get rewarded GORGEOUSLY, but because we’ve helped many, many people lose weight, tone up and feel confidence again. We’ve helped many close and new friends be home from their 3 jobs to be with their families again….and this makes my heart sing. When we first started with the business we were BROKE. Flat in Debt, Broke.
Yesterday we achieved the rank of Ambassador in the company, which means our team has grown to amazing levels, of course increase in pay and a little bonus, hubba hubba! Blissfully Amazing and a huge accomplishment for us!
{us yesterday when we found out we achieved the new rank!! HAHAH!!!}
I wanted to open up today and share the different emotions that came up over these last 9 months…
Worry Wart used to be my middle name. Well, I don’t have a middle name {for real!} so that’s what it could have been 
Starting this journey I was worried about EVERYTHING! I was worried about what people would think {ie. not posting it here on the blog}, worried about putting all my time into this and not leading as I should, worried that it wasn’t a “Traditional Job” and then I took my Life Coaching Course, DOVE into my wounds, pain, worry and fear and realized all I needed to do was change my thoughts.
If you feel you’re a worrier or in constant state of fear in your life, you will benefit from this, I promise.
I needed to lay out my plan and so do you!
If Fear or Worry is popping up in that noggin of yours causing those pits to sweat and you’re Chocolate Cravings rampaging out of control, do this for me:
Get CLEAR on what you want in life. How will the universe know what to deliver if you’re not clear?? Write out your life now!
Affirm to yourself where you ARE in your life! “I am helping 8 people this month get healthier” Use “I AM” when rocking affirmations!
Define Your WHY! Why on gods green earth are you bustin’ your booty for your life?? Do you want to help people close to you? Get outta debt?
Make a Vision Board surrounding your Goals, Journal Daily and express your why, and as we said before, re-write your Story!!!
Fear is just your veil holding you back from greatness!
As we climbed ranks in the business, my worry faded to nothing because I was in power and I was helping others which was my WHY. I visualized everyday and changed my Worry Wart Attitude into a Focused Frenzy!! At night I would be in tears visualizing me being able to take my family on a vacation with my earnings, helping even MORE people be home with their families and packaging up Christmas Gifts for families in need…..
I posted this on Facebook yesterday:
You know that DREAM you have living within?? That was placed in your heart for you to discover, feel and LIVE! For many it just needs to be rediscovered again and placed back on that pedestal 
What’s your DREAM??
I feel I’ve rambled, yet again, but want to encourage you to let worry fall to the side and allow yourself to get really focused on what it is you want to get out of this life. You deserve to live it. No one holds you back.
TAKE ACTION!
Ok, so now after many long nights and early rises, its coffee time, and shake time. I’m going to figure out how I can reward myself for the hard work of February and Celebrate!
Oh!!! A new Lovin’ Likin’ and Lickin’ Video will be up very, very soon!!
Comment Below! How do you deal with Worry?? Are you a worry wart??
To Your Glam Life,
xxoo

I am SUCH a worry wart. And it really holds me back from greatness because I worry about being good enough, doing things properly, what people will think. It’s terrible! But I’m learning to see beyond that because it does not serve me AT ALL. And the more I let go – the more these amazing opportunities come my way. I have a special opportunity coming up that I hope I can make somethign of…send your postivie thoughts my way!!

MAJOR congrats Kris!!! I understand being a worrier – especially about what people think, I get that big time! But eventually I learned that you can never please everyone. Well, I’m still learning that. I’m certainly not ‘there’ yet but I am not sure any of us ever really get ‘there’. It’s all a process! Congrats again!!! Business is so fulfilling and it’s great that you have found a job you love so much and find rewarding.

Congratulations Kris and Ryan! Hearing of your success is really inspiring.

CONGRATS! SO happy for you two! Love the pic of happiness! You guys are so sweet together! Hard work and dedication pays off!
I am a worry wart, so funny because Mike called me that yesterday! I try not to, but I find myself worrying too much about others and not myself too! Bad habit!
Happy Thursday! You guys need to celebrate this weekend I say! <3

Congrats on your success!! My friend and I are actually trying Body by Vi – we’re just waiting for our order to come in – I’ll let you know what I think!
I am a total worry wart. I worry about things that MIGHT happen which I know is ridiculous but the thoughts go crazy before I have time to gain perspective! This is one of my qualities that drives my husband nuts because he handles worry and stress in a completely different way.

Wow, congrats girl!! You’re inspirational.

Congratulations! You really are so inspiring! I love hearing this stuff on your blog
I am an utter worrier, but I am learning to overcome it slowly. I try to remind myself when I really start worrying and future tripping that what I am thinking is “just a thought”, and not a real situation.

Congratulations!!!!! Very exciting and well-deserved!!!!
And THANK YOU for this post!! I’m definitely a worry wart – I stress myself out too much for no reason, haha. But I AM getting better at preventing that

Thank you, Liz!!!! I ALWAYS appreciate your support and lovin’! I’m very grateful to have such supportive friends as yourself!
Ahhhhh stress is funny, sometimes it can be good and other times it can cause the “issues” in life…..I would suggest making a list of goals and KNOWING that you can achieve them so that stress doesn’t need to pop in

Ahhhh, M, you and I could be two peas in a pod
I used to worry a LOT, but am totally open to what possibilities the world has for me each day. Trust me, sometimes I still worry, but at a lesser extent now

Oh my goodness girlie! SUCH a worry wort over here! But, my Mom always says “don’t worry until there is something to worry about”
I don’t know what I would do without her

Hey Love!! What a GREAT support system you have there with your mom, I love it!!!! I think your mom is a wise woman…..I would have to agree with her

Oh my goodness babe, we must be on the same wavelength!!! I had to let go of my fears, worries, and anxieties in order to move on with my life. Most of them centred around an ugly eating disorder and wanting to be perfect. But perfect doesn’t exist! I learnt to listen to my body again, and quash those negative thoughts over time. I decided i wanted to be real! Embrace life, live generously and hopefully help others along the way. Words can’t describe how happy I am for you and Ryan. All your hard work has paid off and you deserve to revel in your success!

Girl, you are in your power!! WOO HOO!! Own that gorgeous life of your just being YOU! It is a little scary seeing the fears, worries and anxieties in the face, but in the end, it all feels so much better!
You are helping so many people on your journey, so proud of you!
