Road Trip!

I've been busy in the office this morning!  Trying to get the last minute things done before I go on my Dallas trip!  I'm leaving tomorrow afternoon and picking up Mom and then we will be on our way Friday morning bright and early.

ROAD TRIP!!

Brian will have to "bach" it this weekend.  I'm hoping he will have something to occupy his time....  wait a minute, what am I saying???? LOL!!!

 I see trouble with a capital T!!!

I'm going to Dallas for business training.  I'll be learning and can not wait to see what is in store for us!  So many great things coming up this year for Nerium International!  If you are in the Dallas area and would like to join me, get in touch right away and I'll reserve a spot for you!!  You will have a blast  - I promise!

Dreams and Visions

I got my vision/dream board done for 2012!  I love doing one every year and have done so for the last 4 years.  I always love seeing how many things I have accomplished at the end of the year.  It doesn't matter how big or small the vision/dream is, I know that with hard work and intention I can achieve it!

If you haven't ever made one and are unsure about it, this is how I do mine.

I get a piece of poster board, you can make it whatever size you like.  I like to use the poster board because it fits into my frame!

Then get you several magazines or find photos that appeal to you online and print them off.  Cut out anything that "talks" to you.  Don't worry about picking all of certain items, just look through the mags and get whatever speaks to you..  Get several items.  Then get your poster board out and start placing the ones you like the most.  Just glue them on the paper however it appeals to you.  I like to get some scrapbooking stickers just to make it look pretty, but it can be like a collage or you can put only a few on there and even write on it if you want.  It's YOUR vision/dream and anything goes.  Don't think that you are dreaming TOO BIG.  Just go for it!  You never know how things will turn out.

Then put it where you can look at it every day.  I like to frame mine and hang it in my office so I look at it everyday and know what I am working towards. 

Then you will be more aware of your goals, dreams or visions.  It is amazing to me how many things come to fruition each year!

The photos don't have to be of your family, they can just represent what you have in mind.  So if you want to be closer to your spouse, you can get a photo of a couple, if you want to workout and get a certain body type, any photo will work that has that body type.  It is up to you!

All I recommend is that you have fun with it! 
Last year several of my girlfriends came over and made them together. We had a BLAST!!

As you can see, everyone's board is different.  I love that!!

So, are YOU going to make one?

My goals!

I am going to challenge myself to write here more often!  So I hope that you will be reading more often as well!

2011 was an up and down year for us.  Up in that overall it was a good year, the down was the tornado, the deastation in our area, but I really feel that I have to move past it at this point!

Nerium became a part of my life in 2011 and I am forever grateful for many reasons, I've met some amazing people, started a booming business and my skin will never be the same ( and this is a GREAT thing!!)

You too can have amazing skin and see the results for yourself.  Take the Nerium 5 day challenge OR just order your own bottle and try it RISK-FREE for 30 days!  Can you say Money-Back Guarantee baby????  Yes, you can!

Don't take my word for it, look at these results:

If you have any questions at all, please contact me.  I'm so excited to share this wonderful product with you.

I'm going to be making my vision board tonight!  That makes me so happy!  I have so many things on my board from last year that came true!! 

Do you make a vision/dream board?  I'd love to see a photo of yours!

Ancient Chinese Secret?

I've always looked young for my age, I didn't used to love it.  I would get upset when I got carded to purchase alcohol, or the time I got carded at the casino ( I was in my 30's).  It's a compliment, I know, but I would get irritated.....

NOW, I LOVE getting carded or told that I look young for my age.  I've been blessed with good genes (thanks Mom and Dad) and I eat right, drink my water, exercise and use good skin care products.

My niece told me that I look 30.  I'm 46, so that is a big compliment!   (She is 15)  I'm sharing my secrets, so to speak with her and I want to share them with you too!  No, it isn't an ancient chinese secret (now I'm really showing my age....)

 
What you eat, drink and put on your skin makes such a difference in how you look.

The foods you should eat include a diet rich in fruits, veggies and nuts.  These all provide your skin with the nutrients, vitamins and fatty acids needed to maintain beautiful skin.

  Drinking plenty of water ( at least 64 oz per day) keeps you hydrated and flushes out toxins in your body that affect your skin.

The products you use on your skin certainly affect how it looks.  Use natural cleansers and moisturizers and of course Nerium AD.  I am seeing such great results with Nerium.  My age spots (yes, I have some) are fading, the wrinkles are going away, especially around my eyes, and my pores are getting smaller.  I am loving it!

So, remember that what you eat and what you use are so important.  Make the right decisions and you will have younger, healthy skin!!  Isn't that what we all want?

Black Pumpkins?

I've had a GREAT weekend so far!  We came to the lake and have been taking it easy and enjoying some time with Brian's parents!

Today was a trip to Tulsa, We shopped at Whole Foods and Bass Pro.  What wouldn't be great about that?

When we got home, Brian and I went for a walk and checked on our pumpkin patch.  It's funny, this patch has just sprouted up on it's own and it is HUGE.  When we were here last time, the patch was full of pumpkins, but someone has taken almost all of them.  There are more growing, but this was the only one large enough to pick.

I don't know much about growing pumpkins, do they turn orange after you pick them?  This one was so much darker than the other, smaller ones, it looks black.

We headed out for the evening and saw an amazing sunset.

Of course, we had to make a stop at the casino and they are all ready for Halloween....

Tomorrow is another great day at the lake and then it's back to reality!!!

My Real Results

I've been using my Nerium AD for 8 days now and I thought I'd show you my results. 

I'm so excited that you can even see results after 8 days!!  How awesome is that????

                                                 Before                                           7 Days

The wrinkles (horizontal) on my forehead are fading, the redness in my face is diminishing. 

and even though I cut my chin off (it's hard to take your own photos), I had these red bumps on the bottom of my chin - kinda like acne scars, they are GONE!   My skin is sooo soft and smooth.  One of the best parts!!

I'm continuing on this path and I am quite pleased with my results after just one week.  I can't wait to see how I look in 30 days!

If you want more info or want to order (remember we have a 30 day money-back guarantee),get in touch with me or check out my website - http://www.dana.nerium.com

Are you a positive person?

or a Debbie Downer?  I know way too many people that look at everything negatively.  Personally, I have to look at the positive side of things, it's just my personality.  However, I am finding more and more that life is just too short to spend time with negative people.

Everyone has their own problems and things going on in their life, but you may not ever know it about some people.  Others seem to shout it from the rooftop and expect everyone to think they are the only one.

As I get older (well, I'm not THAT old....) I am just cutting out the people that are too negative.  It isn't fun to be around them, they never ask how things are with you or your loved ones, and it just makes me angry. 

Don't get me wrong, I understand that there are times when things get us down, I have been there several times, but I truly believe that you are in charge of your moods and happiness.  I CHOOSE to be HAPPY!

Spend time with loved ones and people that make you laugh,  do things that are fun, whatever that is for you.  For me, dancing around the house to my favorite music always puts me in a good mood, being around my family and friends is a mood lifter and I always laugh.  Doing my workouts and spending a few moments to be thankful for all the blessings in my life are great ways to get in a better mood.  It may not make the problems go away, but you will feel better, even if it is just a few moments.  Try not to be so focused on the negative things in life,  count your blessings.

Let's face it - when we are happy:

we feel better

we look better

we sleep better

people want to be around us.

So, this is my motto for life:

Three small rules for living a happy life

1. Start each day with a grateful heart.

2. Focus on the positive aspects of every person you encounter.

3. End each day with a grateful heart.

How do you CHOOSE to live your life!

Remember - to Genuinely Glow - Be HAPPY!!
