Sharing my Message
I am feeling a little stuck in my business life at the moment so I decided to re-read ‘Millionaire Mumpreneurs’ by Mel McGee, for a little advice and inspiration – or more so for up kick up the ass: a little something that we all seem to need every now and then.
Millionaire Mumpreneurs
The first page that I opened up on read as follows:
“Here’s to the crazy ones, the misfits, the rebels, the troublemakers, the round pegs in the square holes, the ones who see things differently – they’re not fond of rules. You can quote them, disagree with them, glorify or vilify them, but the only thing that you can’t do is ignore them because they change things…. they push the human race forward and, while some may see them as the crazy ones, we see genius, because the ones who are crazy enough to think that they can change the world, are the ones who do.” ‘Think Different’, Apple Inc marketing campaign 1997
This paragraph really allowed me to understand that I am ok. Actually, I am much more than just ok; I am sensational.
Just because I believe that I am different to a majority of the population and sometimes I do feel like a misfit, doesn’t mean that I have to shy away. Actually it means the complete opposite. It means that I must stand up and share my message and my knowledge.
I am one of these people who see things differently and I am here to push the human race forward.
I am here to help change the world and make it a much better place.
My problem at the moment is that I am not serving enough people.
As T. Harv Eker said: ‘If you’re not earning enough, it’s because you are not serving enough people’.
I know that most people in business go through the same phases where they lack confidence and have some sort of hang ups. It’s perfectly normal but I must get over it.
I am NOW committed to serving people and am so passionate about my message that it is time to get out of my own way. I have all the knowledge and information I need. It is time for me to focus my energy on the people that I am going to serve instead of having it tied up with my own ego and sense of self.
So if you would like to get Healthier, Wealthier, Happier and More Successful then watch this space as I start to share my message and knowledge.
Have an awesome day.

Parenting – Being a role model
Good or Bad
Today as I sat on the rocks, at Short Point Merimbula, pondering about life and death I asked myself “what was I really doing with my life?”
You see, last night we got a message from home (Melbourne) that my Uncle Noel had passed away. He was a wonderful kind and gentle man who had been a part of my life for 40 years and he had lived a great life. So, as I sat there I couldn’t help but wonder about where I would be when I was in my eighties (I have no doubt that I will make it to 100).
I know where I want to be and what I want to be doing but what am I actually doing about it NOW?
I have made some big changes in my life over the past few years, some positive and some negative and I have an extremely postive outlook, but I have come to the realisation that I am a bit of a ‘Gunna-might’.
Gunna do this! -Might do that!
Although I have huge dreams and aspirations and totally believe that every will work out fantastic I seem to say a lot of things but never really take action. I get annoyed with my two children (Maddi & Riley) when they do the same thing but today it really struck me that I was their biggest role model. They are learning from me everyday and when I get annoyed with them it’s really myself that I am annoyed with.
I am very good at wasting time and looking busy and also letting fear get in my way. So today I made a promise to myself that I am going to take massive action everyday to ensure that I am extremely successful, a fantastic role model for my children and that I am able to leave a legacy when I die. I have so much knowledge and potential and I am letting self sabotage get in my way.
The Time Is Now
Everyday I now choose to take the necessary action to create the happy, successful life that I desire and to be an awesome role model to my children. I will share my knowledge and expertise with the world and give enormous value.
Are you creating the ideal life that you truly desire or are you too self sabotaging and teaching your children bad habits?
I would love to hear from you.

Following a DREAM
For many years my husband and I have talked about the idea of packing up all our belongings and travelling around Australia with our two children. But, like many people it was just something that we only talked about and dreamt of.
How the Universe Works
In August 2010 we received a letter from our land lord stating that we needed to vacate the property that we were renting. As this is the third time this has happened to us in as many years we decided that the universe was trying to tell us something. It was time to follow our dream.
First we thought that we would travel for 3 months.
Then we decided 6 months would be better.
‘What the heck, it’s a big country and who wants to rush? - Let’s just go for 12 months’.
We had no clue about how we were going to do it, we just knew that we were going to make it happen. We researched websites, we spoke to other people who had done it and we did lots of reading. Thankfully we were able to borrow a caravan from a friend and we already had a 4WD.
We enrolled our children in distant education, packed up our furniture into storage and gave notice at our J.O.B.’s.
So here we are, 3 weeks into our trip (we left from Melbourne) and we have only made it as far as Pambula. We are so excited about our journey and the fabulous things we are going to do and see together as a family.
Making it happen
Did we have thousands of dollars in the bank? – Definately not!
Are we a little scared about how we are going to get by? – Of course!
But we were not going to let fear hold us back.
One of the main commens we get from people is – ‘We’re so jealous. That’s something we’ve always wanted to do, but we just can’t’. My question is can’t or won’t. Because as I tell my children there is no can’t in life. If you want to do something bad enough you will just make it happen.
What are you not doing that you would really like to?
Are you going to say in a few years time ‘I wish I had done that’?
Follow our Journey
I will be posting about our adventures as well as about Health, Fitness, Lifestyle and Wellbeing on this site as we travel.
You can also keep up to date with our trip at www.2kidsandacaravan.com.au where Maddi and Riley will be posting blogs weekly. They will also be writing about different things they did and places from a teenagers point of view at www.throughteenageeyes.com
Tomorrow I will share my goals for 2011 and you can keep up to date with them throughout the year.
I would love for you to share yours also.
Have a fabulous day because that is what you choose.

The 100 Day Challenge – Let’s Do It
We all began this year at GO, and all roads lead to a final rendezvous; the difference is what we’ve done en route. Goals set, actions taken, and results realized determine if you get to call this year a success or not.
September 23rd is an important date as it marks the 100 day countdown of 2009.
With that in mind, I have put together a number of questions for you to consider as you progress toward the finish line and call this year a wrap:
1. What specific results have you achieved so far this year?
2. Are you healthier, wealthier, and wiser?
3. Are you winning, losing or just holding ground?
4. What results are you committed to achieve by the end of the year?
5. How have you grown and what have you learned this year?
6. Is there any unfinished business that needs to be tended to in your life?
7. Are you actively pursuing what’s most important on a daily basis?
8. What habits do you need to change to ensure better results?
9. What is the key issue that inhibits your ability to perform at your best?
You must live to answer and honor these questions, because when it comes to the last 100 days of the year, every day and everything you do counts.
With that in mind, I wanted to share with you an exciting opportunity to finish the year strong—it’s called the 100 Day Finish Strong Challenge!
Learn more here: www.goalsguy.com
One thing we all have in common is that we all love a challenge. For some it could be a goal that puts you to the test, an obstacle that says you can’t beat me, a belief system that is begging for a breakthrough, or even a mountain that just dares you to climb it.
Whatever it is, you’re attitude should be BRING IT ON, as there’s nothing quite like a good old fashioned challenge to see what you’re made, to push the boundaries and tests your limits as it is ONLY when we overcome these trials that we get to reap the sweetest rewards.
