One of the longest post I will ever do, and the most real too. Everyone will go through some hard times at some point. Life isn't easy. Just something to think about..did you know the people that are the strongest are usually, the most sensitive? Did you know the people who exhibit the most kindness are the first to get mistreated? Did you know the ones who take care of others all the time are usually, the ones who need it the most? Did you know the three hardest things to say are I love you, I'm sorry, and help me? Sometimes just because a person looks happy, you have to look past their smile to see how much pain they may be in. </div><p></p><p><a href="http://www.ibosocial.com/visions2/pressrelease.aspx?prid=393618" target="_blank">Continue here...</a></p><p></p><p></p></td></tr></tbody></table></div>Confront and Replacehttps://syndicationexpress.ning.com/profiles/blogs/confront-and-replace2014-07-13T16:53:10.000Z2014-07-13T16:53:10.000ZMeredith Elizabethhttps://syndicationexpress.ning.com/members/MeredithElizabeth<div><p><strong>I'm so thankful that I don't have depression.</strong> I used to struggle with it.

He noted that taking care of our physical health is “a spiritual discipline.” So how do we practice such discipline?</div> <div> It’s easy for me to tell you to eat healthy, exercise, meditate and relax more, but we all know doing it consistently is hard. We need to set SMART goals and take action. SMART goals are Specific, Measurable, Attainable, Relevant and Time-bound. So here are four tips to help you keep on track with your health and fitness goals:</div> <div> 1) Make a Plan: Before you can do anything, you need to make a plan. This helps put the intention firmly in your mind and part of your memory. You can make a plan by visualizing what you plan to do and how you are going to do it or by writing it down step-by-step. I suggest you write it down, review it often and share it.</div> <div> The more detailed you are with your plan, the more likely you’ll stick with it. Just saying you’ll go to the gym is not enough. Try being specific by planning to go to the gym at 5:30 and attending the step class on Monday.</div> <div> 2) Put Something of Value on the Line: There are two ways to do this. The first way is to set aside money that you’ll give away if you fail to maintain your goal. The second way is to exercise with a friend. Studies show that people are less likely to cancel on a friend than they are on themselves.</div> <div> 3) Bundle Your Temptations: This tip involves combining things you don’t like with things you love. Say you love reading novels or watching a certain TV show on your iPad, but don’t love the gym. Tell yourself you can ONLY watch the TV show while you are on the cardio machines at the gym.</div> <p></p> <div> 4) Seek Social Support: Research shows you can achieve mo</div> <div> re if you have the support of <br /> friends, a mentor, a trainer or even a F</div> <a href="{{#staticFileLink}}3818725977,original{{/staticFileLink}}"><img src="{{#staticFileLink}}3818725977,original{{/staticFileLink}}" width="278" class="align-right" height="242" alt="3818725977?profile=original" /></a> <div> ace</div> <div> book group that has the same goals you have.

But I truly didn’t have a clue … I was just not understanding what it took to get myself branded….and it wasn’t over yet ….along came blogging and making videos on YouTube …. I felt overwhelmed and kind of a failure.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> I realized I needed help but I wasn’t sure where to find it. It actually kind of found me when a friend told me about a company that offered tools to generate my own leads , autoresponders, mentoring and training webinars to teach me all the things I was struggling so hard to master. It took me over two years in the business but I had finally found the secret!</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> I’ll tell you what it is: The secret to becoming a success in Network Marketing is to find a company that trains you to market yourself in attraction marketing. One with the experts who have already mastered the skills of attraction marketing and are willing to mentor you, share their knowledge and techniques and teach you to perfect them.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> The companies who promise you $1,000 checks your first week in the business are offering the fulfillment of your dreams but there is nothing to back up their claims. How do you go about earning those checks? Their software or their systems cannot train you to build relationships the first week in the business or even the second or third.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> Master the skills of making your name recognizable, share good information with your Facebook friends, your groups, your Twitter followers and develop a relationship with the people you would like to have join you in your business.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> Learning to sell is important but people are not buying your opportunity or product …. they are buying you … your personality, your expertise, your integrity. People searching for an online business or tools to help build their primary online business want to know that the person they see online is real and reliable… someone they can trust. That’s the key!</p> <p class="MsoNormal">It takes time and when you don’t see those big checks right away don’t be defeated. Be persistent, be consistent and don’t focus on the money. Before you know it you will have more friends and followers than you can possibly imagine right now....people who want to be part of whatever you are doing.</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> Believe in yourself!</p> <p class="MsoNormal"> Great Success & Abundant Blessings in All You Do!</p> <p class="MsoNormal">Sandy Blomstrom<span> </span></p> <p class="MsoNormal"><em> “What I am, is not out there.

So many spend their entire lives trying to make as much money as possible so that they can afford to do what they really want later. It makes no sense to settle in life until you’re 65 so that you can retire and do what you want when you’re already WAY past your prime. We only live life once so why wouldn’t you want to spend it pursuing your bliss? To do anything else would be a tragic waste of the freedom you are allowed if you are reading this right now. Follow your bliss and you will be a thousand times more happy than your retirement date and 40+ years younger.</p><p>Choose your friends wisely.</p><p>You are affected far more than you think by the people you spend your time with. Do your friends share your values? Do they encourage you when you speak of your goals and dreams or do they scoff? Make sure the people around you are conducive to the lifestyle you want to lead or you will find yourself being dragged again and again into behavior that distances you from your desires. Friends with a habit of producing negative thoughts will especially hinder you. This can be a hard task to follow through with if you realize you good friend is one of these saboteurs, but you must be firm! Don’t let anyone get in the way of you being all that you can be.</p><p>Don’t burn bridges.</p><p>By that I mean maintain your relationships with people even if you think you are never going to see them again. For example, if you are quitting your job, don’t chew out your boss before leaving! You might run into him/her again later and life and wish you had never severed ties so harshly. You never know when you might need the help of someone you knew in the past. Plus there is already too much hatred in this world, why add more towards the people you interact with?</p><p>PLEASE LIKE MY PAGE!
