Digital Business Opportunity...

I've mentioned my new adventure but haven't really given a lot of details out.  All I will say it's been a blessing to start this business.  It's a business I own.  I need to put in the work if I expect to get returns.  I need to build up a following if I'm to get trust with people.  I'll never steer anyone to do anything they don't want to.  It's simple.  If people want to have an online business then they need to have a source of money to start it up as you would any business.  I feel like people can't change the thinking that someone needs to pay for it for them.  Then it's not your business.  You just work for that business.  Owning something means changing your mindset from employee to owner.  It means taking responsibility for what you have to do every day.  It's not hard work but it does take work and time.  I've seen some people complain about the money they are being charged to get the training and coaching call.  The coach needs to be paid for her time.  They've earned it.  I feel lucky to have found this opportunity and this is why.  I have mentors and coaches available to help me, plus an entire community of people who will also help.  No one is alone on this journey.  I've met great people and feel I've made lifelong friends from this.  I'm just saying there is so much personal growth I've already accomplished in just a few short months.  I've learned so much from the training and still learning every day.   I know I can succeed.  I will succeed.

My new adventure needs help...

So I'm going to post here what I'm doing as well as on Facebook.  I'm starting an Online Digital Business using "Attraction Marketing".  In other words, I signed up, paid a small fee, and bought a product.  I then get amazing training to learn how to do the same thing.  I set up a business page, got lots of likes on my page (would like more followers), running my first conversion ad, etc.  I did it all myself with the help of my mentor. She's amazing by the way.  I work in advertising but know nothing about this stuff.  It's an amazing learning experience and I believe I can succeed.  I will succeed because I'm that hot-headed enough to not give up.

I hope you visit and join up.  If you want to start an online business to earn extra money, fund your retirement, or save for your kids' college, then take a chance and find out what it's all about.  This community is amazing.  I see the possibilities and no, I don't plan to bother my friends or family to join.  This is strictly for people that are interested and want to do this.  It's not for everyone. Some people have no interest and some don't have the drive.  It's also not a get-rich-quick scheme.  It's hard work that I hope will pay off in the end so I can pay our debts and not get a second job that'll take me away from my little girl.  And don't think I didn't think about it.   We have debts to pay back and since my husband was off for an entire year (thanks COVID) it has hurt us.  The measly money the government gave us was just a taste of what's needed to fix our debt. 

Anyway, I hope all hs had a wonderful Mother's Day.  I did.  I'm blessed.

My new adventures...

I've been so busy building this business that I've been neglecting my blog. I'm loving this new project.  This new business that I'm setting up, I'm learning so much.  I gather some may not understand but the wealth of knowledge I'm getting is priceless to me.  I can't see the future but I'll do my best to go in the direction that gives me growth, takes me out of my comfort zone, and will possibly get me further in life.  I'm learning about Facebook, Instagram, YouTube and LinkedIn advertising.  Starting with Facebook for now but maybe I'll learn about the others too.  It's all at my fingertips, I just need to do it.   

Growing up....

 My daughter never ceases to amaze me.  We've been giving her melatonin for kids to help her get to sleep at night.  It's been a battle.  Melatonin has changed that.  She went to sleep without fuss last night, got up while I was getting ready.  She dressed herself with clothes she picked out.  And she was happy and smiling.  Amazing.  

Getting toddlers to eat...

So this is a big challenge in this house but things have been changing.  First off, I discovered melatonin for kids and it's a huge lifesaver.  G just wasn't going to sleep.  Kept getting up, fix my blankets, I'm thirsty, I have to potty, etc... Anyway, we tried this and it worked so well.  She went to bed on her own, slept all night and got up early without any fuss.  

Next issue is mealtime.  Every night same question, what's for dinner?  Next question, do I eat it?  I always say yes.  On the weekend we had tacos.  I thought she liked tacos but suddenly she wouldn't touch it.  I saw that they had these soft taco boats.  I thought, why not, maybe that's why she won't eat it.  It falls out of the shell and frustrates her.  Well, that was it.  She loved it.  Ate almost the entire taco.  I guess the secret is to just get in the head of the child.  At least this time it worked.

Thank you El Paseo for your taco boats :)

Cleaning up....

So I'm more motivated than ever to get out of this house.  I want G and us to live a normal life and I don't think that will ever happen in this state.  The leadership here feels mighty powerful and doesn't want to let that power go.  So we need to move to a place that G can meet and have friends over.  Go to school full time.  Have after school functions in person.  Places like that exist but not here so much.  Any excuse to shut it down, happens.  Last year was hard.  But now we are in a groove and I want out before they get another excuse to shut it down.  

This month, I'm working on the office.  I'm getting rid of G's current bed and replacing it with the daybed in the office.  It'll look much nicer than what she has right now.  Then it'll also be easier to start packing up things and throwing things out.  Just taking baby steps to get there.  Once this room is done, I think it'll be easier to do the rest.
