Out with the Old, In with the NEW!
Well, 2006 is almost over and I'm about to begin an excitng year with new goals and plans for my Gourmet Candle business. I just finished reading 3 books over the past few weeks in December. If you want to read some awesome material? Read Mach II with your hair on fire!
Who moved my cheese? Spencer Johnson and Dare to Dream by John Maxwell
Three exciting books that will make you think about your life and where you are going. All books are very quick and simple hence three in one month. I'm not typically a fast reader but I couldn't put these books down. I'm starting a new book now: Why your Dumb, Sick, & Broke.. and how to get Smart, Healthy, & Rich by Randy Gage So far it is very exciting and I think it will be hard to put down too once I get a good start. I have only glimpsed at the first chapter but have been interupted by my 3 small children on both of my attempts to start. lol
The year ended with a wonderful scent Peppermint Truffle as our candle of the month but 2007 holds some promising new scents being introduced including Sandalwood, Hot Orange Danish, Hazelnut Coffee, Cashmere, and Blueberry Smoothie! I can't wait! My January candles should arrive in about 6 days, most of the time it is sold before I get it out of the box. Seems I always have a visitor over when they arrive. Great for me! I'll take the money and buy myself a new one at wholesale prices. Learn how you can too right here http://www.smellsoynow.scent-team.com/newsignup.php

Here is to a new bright new year!

Thanks to the Owners!
Thanks to the owners Bob, Charlie, Carmen, and Lynn, my office smells delicious! I feel like I have stepped into a dream world, like the chocolate factory was to Charlie. Mary Poppins was to Jane and Michael Banks!
The scrumptious, inviting smell of Peppermint Truffle, this months candle of the month scent lingers through my office as I gaze into the future. It is to Die for! I think I have found my new favorite scent!
Is it a Dream? Or is it reality? It is BOTH! Americans dream of the lifestyle this business is bringing to families. Becoming debt free, taking the kids out of daycare, bringing dad home, the list is endless and its happening right now somewhere around you. Its not easy, but the end result wille make the Blood, Sweat, and tears forgettable.
Everyone has heard the expression, Blood-Sweat-Tears, but I want to eaxpress what it means to me with my candle business.
The Blood: What sacrifice must I make today to live better tomorrow? I will need to invest my time and my money. It is as simple as that. Is it easy? No, but you have to look way into the future and see yourself relaxing on the beach or in the mountains. The results you are looking for will come.
The Sweat: Determination and Consistency! Decide what you want and do it. Take the time to figure out what needs to be done to obtain that relaxing day on the beach. Stick to it, don't backslide. You may not reach the goal as fast as others but with consistency you will reach your ideal end result. Have you ever watched people "Work out" for the very first time? They look like they are going to die! The sweat is pouring off them, their hearts are beating a mile a minute, their faces are so red it looks like their head could explode but they make it through that first frustrating day. As time goes by, and they are consistent with their "Work Out", a change occurs and the "Work Out" becomes easy.
What about those people who make it thru that first "Work Out" day but don't show up again until a week later? Not so easy day again. They must endure the exact same pain they endured one week ago. Why? Its like starting over again, No consistency! They look at the person next to them in frustration but that person works out 4 days a week 2 hours a day.
What could you do in your business 2 hours a day 4 days a week? Think about it!
The Tears: Ahh! The tears of Joy from watching my team grow and seeing others accomplish so much with just a little consistent effort!
