Has This Happened to You?

“People are like stained glass windows. They sparkle and shine when the sun is out, but when the darkness sets in, their true beauty is revealed only if there is a light from within”~Elizabeth Kubler Ross

Have you ever thought you knew someone so well until all of a sudden when under pressure they CRACK revealing their not-so-pretty colors? After working at Craig Hospital for several years, I found myself witnessing this particular setting day in and day out.

It separated the strong from the weak, the experienced from the newbie. More over, it separated the nursing staff who were there caring for their patients because they had compassion to do so. Like owning a Urilife home based business, nursing is one specialty that must be led with heart and not greed.

We are all human, we will all crack at times. But those whom possess this light from within will shine in any given situation.

Radiated Lettuce, Coming to a Town Near You!

It is official, the FDA approved radiation on lettuce, spinach and other greens hoping to ward off the all too familiar salmonella and e-coli scares. The radiated produce is said to hit grocery stores as of yesterday.

Once again, the FDA refuses to allow labeling on this radiated produce. I mean come on it’s in our best interest not to know why we are suddenly giving birth to incredible hulks!

I have to agree with Gerry from http://diseaseproof.com, if it’s not natural I’m leery. Which is why I encourage you to grow your own vegetable garden. If we were meant to live this life of high tech genetically modified food, why are we suffering from more disease now than ever before?

Radiation is not the answer and I am afraid that it will be the least of our worries to come.

Will you be eating radiated lettuce?

Your Friend,

Failure is That of an Illusion

“One great source of failure is found in a lack of concentration of purpose. There will be adverse winds in every voyage, but the able seaman firmly resists their influence, while h takes advantage of every favorable breeze to speed him on his course. so in our aims and pursuits we shall find much to counteract them, much to draw our attention from them, and, unless we are armed with a steadfast purpose, that can subordinate the lesser to the greater, that can repel hindrances, resist attractions, and, bend circumstances to our will, our efforts will not be crowned with success.”~ Unknown

The last few days have been spent in deep thought, yeah I do find a few spare moments in the day to think sometimes, lol!

What have I been thinking about?

All that I have given up in life, not that I am by any means regretful for the decisions I have made, but more for the fact that I have come to the realization that it is never too late to become what you might have been.  While the timing has never permitted me to do so, it has been a life-long dream to become a teacher.

The last few days, I have thought to myself WHY NOT?

Why can’t I go back to school, sure it will be difficult returning after 7 long years.  Yes, it will be time consuming.  And now with two young children in tow, you bet it will be hectic. I will be making more with Urilife than I would as a teacher, and yes I am scared to death of failing!

None of that Matters.

I am determined to do this, to prove to myself that I can do this!  I will no longer let fear stop me from growing to be the person I have always dreamed of becoming.  I will not fail, why?

Because failure is that of an illusion.  You can only fail unless you stop trying.  As long as you have faith, you can conquer any obstacle…even education for that matter!  Your faith is your greatest weapon against adversity, and with faith comes persistence.

When you embrace obstacles instead of giving in to them, you reaffirm that life is precious and worth fighting for.  You can’t let the fear of failure stand in your way from growing!!!

Is there anything you have put off for fear of failure?

Cheers to Education!

The result, within the hour I felt like myself again:~)

If this is the first time you have heard of this tiny little seed, rest assure you can find more info here.

3 Tips to Stop Kisses from Making YOU Fat!

We all over indulge sometimes, but very few of us realize just how powerful proximity can be for promoting that overindulgence. When I worked at Craig Hospital, I swear I packed on 10lbs for each holiday. All of our patients would bring us chocolate kisses to show their gratitude. If you don’t know by now, if it’s in front of me, I’m eatin’ it!

Apparently I’m Not Alone

A study done at the University of Illinois using Hershey’s Kisses showed that when workers kept chocolate on their desk, they ate an average of nine per day. When the chocolate was moved just six feet away, they ate an average of four per day.

3 Tips to Stop Kisses From Making YOU Fat:

1. You know the old saying, “Out of Sight, Out of Mind.” Well, go hide it so you aren’t tempted!
2. Dump out the jar of candy, fill it with some raw nuts and make sure you have plenty of fruits and veggies in close proximity instead.
3. When all else fails and you can’t rely on willpower, don’t bring chocolate into the house! No need to be ashamed, I can’t bring chocolate into my house unless is raw cocoa powder:~)

So where do you have your kisses hiding?

Love,

Brandi

Wish You had Softer Skin?

Try using sea salt. The grainy texture of sea salt makes it a super-effective exfoliant! Since each granule is packed with minerals like potassium, iodine and magnesium, sea salt increases moisture in the outer layer of the skin. A quick scrub in the shower will slough away dead skin cells, leaving new skin glowing and extra-supple!

Why Not Make Your Own Sea Salt Scrub?

Ingredients:

1. 1 cup sea salt
2. 1 cup olive oil
3. 1 tsp your favorite essential oil

Mix ingredients together in a small jar and there you have it!

Cheers to Soft Skin!

Hug Your Pet, Heal Your Bones

Did you know that cozying up with your dog or cat helps relieve mental distress and anxiety, plus puts you in a relaxed frame of mind for a more restful sleep?

No wonder animals play such a significant role in therapies around the world. And guess what? Studies suggest that the vibrations from a cat’s purr improve bone density and promote healing!

Don’t tell my daughter, she’ll actually have a sound argument for getting a cat now

A Bubble Bath…in the sink…at Burger King, What?

Since when is your birthday an excuse to bathe in a restaurant sink? I could think about 50 other ways to spend the day, but apparently this Burger King employee couldn’t. You can read more about the story here.

What do you guys think about the rest of the staff being fired too?

One more reason NOT to eat Fast Food!

Are You More Committed to Your Dreams or to Your Reality?

If there is one thing I’ve learned since starting my Urilife Home Based Business almost a year ago, it’s that you need to serve as a model of integrity by meaning what you say and saying what you mean.

If you want respect, you need to demonstrate to your team, family, friends and community that when you say you are going after your dreams, you mean it!

“Let go of the past and go for the future. Go confidently in the direction of your dreams. Live the life you imagined.” -Henry David Thoreau

The road to making your dreams come true starts with where you are now. Most people fail at making their dreams happen because they did not make an honest assessment of where they were and where they wanted to be. They allowed that inner voice to make them quit before they even got started.

Has this happened to you?

We all fall short at times, we are only human and aside from what some may think, not one of us is perfect! If you allow your self sabotaging ways to flood into your dreams soon that negative attitude, those beliefs and ultimately your fears will not only be your reality but it will also become your dream.

What is my dream, you ask?

I want to be the healthiest I have ever been. I want to share this passion with my family and friends and anyone else who will listen for that matter:~) I want to find the balance between raising my children and providing for them financially as well. I long to find a way to get out of debt and no longer allow our check book to dictate our fate for the month.

This is my dream and I am 100% committed to making it happen and guess what, it is happening! While it was difficult at first, my family and friends now see just how committed I am and they now support me in making this dream a reality!

Which are you more committed to, your dream or your reality?

If the answer is your dream, prove it. Demonstrate that you are serious about achieving your dream by taking action today!

See You at the Top!
