When your busy planning....life happens

I have always been a planner.  I plan most of my day even if I am just staying at home.  I plan almost every aspect of my life.  I found that if you follow a plan life happens a little easier. But....on anther note when you are busy planning every part of your life you miss the adventure. I am learning very slowly how to unplan my life.  (If that's even a word? Ryan Hunt, any comments?)

I have read over the past couple of months how these wonderful women live life and still accomplish what they need to. I aspire to be one of these women. Real ladies being successful at not only selling Avon but turning it into a million dollar business for themselves.

As I have said many times before you are in charge of  making your dreams come true.  Sometimes things will fall in your lap and make your dreams easier to attain but you have to do some work to make them happen.  So with all that in mind write your dreams down and make a plan. What do you want at the end of the tunnel?  What do you have to do to make it to the end?  Don't forget to enjoy the ride on the way!

 My ultimate goal with Avon is to become a SEUL (Senior Executive Unit Leader). For some of you nonavonians (another word for Ryan) this is the highest in team building you can earn. I am currently a Unit Leader with approximately 40 on my team.  I am continually adding men and women to my team that want to make their dreams come true.  It is my job to show them how.  Wish me luck.

I hope I didn't bore you all that much.  Thanks for reading. May God bless you and keep you.

Thanks

My Avon story

Good Morning!  I am so excited to be starting my own blog.  My goal of having this blog is to help my fellow Avon representatives and also to answer questions about products.  Hmmm...where do I begin....how about the beginning.

I started my Avon business about 10 years ago, that being said I wasn't really serious about my business.  I did it as a hobby, not realizing the potential income I could be making.  I was more of a personal shopper and had a few customers.  I was going to college full-time and had two part-time jobs as well as selling Avon.  Talk about crazy huh? Avon did pay for my books and part of my tuition. I only sold for about a year and at that point as any hobby it was costing me more money that I was making.   So I took an Avon sabbatical. Boy was that a mistake.

As time went on I was looking to find an Avon lady and failed to find one.  That got my wheels turning, how many other customers are looking for an Avon lady and can't because no one every approaches them.  I will talk more about this later. I started selling again still as just something on the side.  Long story short....I decided after having baby Noah (now 4) that I wanted to be able to stay home. I put my hopes and dreams on paper and started speaking them into my life.  (Ask anyone I am a millionaire)   Just this year I started working my business seriously and now I am a full-time Avon lady and loving every minute of it.

I now earn enough income with my Avon business to make my car payment, mortgage payment and also help with many other expenses.  I am not going to lie it does some hard work and perseverance but you too can make any of your dreams come true. With God's love, grace and patience I am on my way.

Thanks for tuning in!
