Are you wearing your make me feel important sign?

Everyone wears a sign that says "Make me feel important".  We want to be seen and heard and make a connection.  There is a Ted Talks that says if you want to live longer - we need to make more connections.  So everywhere I go, I try to make someone feel special.  A compliment, a kind word, thank you, just a litte extra something.  It doesn't really take more time, but it makes you feel good and the person on the receiving end of your kindness.

My hubby and I were in Las Vegas in a line up for tickets to a show.  The people in front of us gave the agent at the desk the worst time, horrible treatment that a person doesn't deserve.  The woman was amazing being so polite and professional.  When we got in front of her we said we were so sorry that she had been treated like that.   She went out of her way to help us get great seats.  When we left we went to find her boss and shared how great she had been to the nasty people and the great service she had given us.  Now that took a few extra moments but we wanted this person to know we were impressed.  Saying thank you and letting someone know they have a great employee is something I would want someone to do for me.

What you send out in the lives of others comes back tenfold into your life.  You can call it Karma or whatever.  Why not make it your mission to pass along some kindness and see how great it feels??

Make it a great day!

When you open your wallet, what do you see?

Don’t you love my $1,000,000 bank note. Great gift for someone who has everything. Notice in big letters – non- negotiable!! Like Bare Naked Ladies song “ if I had a Million Dollars.” What would you do with a $1,000,000. My hubby balances his bank account in pencil and to the penny. I have a running total in my head and have never been overdrawn but never balance it like my hubby. Needless to say, we don’t share bank accounts. It took me a long time to understand money! My money usually ran out before month end. With my last full-time job my most vivid recollection was my every two weeks 20-minute thrill – getting paid and it usually only lasted 20 minutes and I was broke for another two weeks. I was always looking for a way to make extra cash. When you open your wallet what do you see? For many of us we use debit or credit and rarely see money is the wallet. What I see when I open my wallet is my million-dollar bill so I never feel broke. I was at a McDonald’s with a friend an

WHAT'S YOUR CLARITY?

Ever wake up one day and realize this is the day you must make changes? Thanks to Ann Perry, a numerologist and remarkable woman that I had been working with for several years, I was exploring my options. I am a planner and want to know where I am going – what direction am I headed this year. Where am I going? Ever feel like you are going in circles or you keep ending up at a place where you don’t want to be. Book an appointment with Ann! A pivotal  moment for me was while passing a kidney stone in February, 2014! No wonder they tell you not to make major decisions while under the influence of drugs! I was so happy and said to my hubby – Oh maybe I need a change,  and,  I am done! He looked at me and said you are right! Wow wasn’t expecting that! That felt so good to say that outloud but also likely the most frightening. After you have done the same thing for so long, I wondered whether I could do anything else. Walking away from a business with 4 to 5 million a year in sales
