Welcome to my Corner

Hi Beauties!

I have a question? Where do you go to get those creative juices flowing? I'd like to think that everyone has that one spot they can go to for a little quiet time and inspiration. Maybe you have a favorite room in the house where you go to watch a good movie, get some downtime? Maybe it's the room with good lighting where you go to do your hair or apply your makeup?

We'll I must admit that I do my best work in my closet! Now I know what you're going to say...is she nuts? A closet? Yes, my closet. I have transformed my closet into a multi-purposed, high-functioning workroom. I do everything in my closet (business, meditate, pray) I watch television, model clothes for my clothing #boutique and more. I have transformed my closet into a photography studio and workroom in addition to the primary place for storing my clothes and shoes!

I know you be asking, "why? don't you have other rooms in your house?" The short answer is yes....I could use other rooms but I use my closet as a multi-purpose room for a few reasons.

Reason (1) I grew up as the youngest child in the #home and I'm not accustomed to sharing my space or my things! Therefore, since my household includes four other people, the chances of someone else entering my space or using my things are pretty high! (2) I can actually sit things down and they still be there when I return. (can anyone relate) I hate wasting time looking for things it's one of my biggest pet peeves. (3) It actually feels like I'm in a different place, a space of my own, a place that no one else has the right to be in. I guess that goes back to that youngest child thing, I have always appreciated having my own space.

Do you have a favorite place or space in your home that gets the creative juices flowing? I hear so many people say that they lose their motivation when they're at home. Finding something in your space that inspires you, and if you don't have that, create a space that inspires you. I would take it a step further and say that it's necessary to build a small, intimate sanctuary in your home. I go into my space to write in my journal and jot down business ideas and once I start they flow so seamlessly.

Find that space, dress it out with things that #inspire you, #calm you and bring you a sense of belonging and #peace.

Attracting What You Desire

Hey friends!

Whether it’s love, money, friends or peace, we have the ability to attract what we want. The first and most important thing for us to realize is that we do, in fact, attract our current circumstances, the good the bad and the ugly! Energy is transferable so therefore we must pay close attention to our thoughts, feelings, and actions since actions are a result of the energy we project. Do you have supportive friends in your life? Are you working your dream job or running the ideal business? Does your bank account reflect a balance equal to your efforts? If you answered no, you must begin to attract the outcomes that you desire by changing your thoughts, feelings, and actions. I put together some action steps that will help you begin to attract your heart’s desires.

1. Visualize

Visualizing or daydreaming, allows you to form a mental picture of the things you desire. When you think about your next car, relationship or even your ideal career, you’ve probably seen a commercial of someone else with it. Visualizing allows you to see what you want before you actually possess it. This not only applies to physical objects, but you can also visualize how you will look and feel when you have supportive friends. Visualize the freedom you’ll feel when you leave that terrible job to finally work for yourself, how does it look? How will you feel? These are all visualizations. It helps you prepare your mind and physical responses for future events.

2. Work on Yourself

Work on yourself! People often underestimate the power of working on the “self.” You might say, I don’t need to work on myself, it’s everyone else who has the problem! In a perfect world, it’s everyone else’s fault but truthfully, we’re all in a constant state of evolution and change. The hustle and bustle of everyday life can wear us down and dull our sense of awareness. The stress of trying to balance everything at once can lead down a dark road to a point of no return. Truthfully, if we would focus on ourselves and the way we feel physically, mentally and emotionally we could make huge progress in becoming who we are meant to be. Making small adjustments will have a huge impact on how you feel about yourself. Prepare yourself for the life you want by setting boundaries that will help to hold you accountable. Be kind to yourself but be realistic about the things that prevent you from functioning at your highest level.

3. Celebrate The Success Of Others

Now I know you might ask what the success of others has to do with my own? I can assure you that when one person wins, we all win! I am inspired by the success of others because it reminds me that it can happen for me as well. Cheering on and supporting the success of other people immediately propels the efforts of your own endeavors. The energy used to feel love and support for your friends, family or colleagues circulates the atmosphere and makes a deposit right back into you. Celebrating the success of others lifts your vibration to another level and solidifies your connection to the things you desire the most.

In times where I have worked hard trying to force success is where I have experienced the greatest failure. I’ve learned that my greatest accomplishments come at times when I least expect it. My philosophy is that we should let our hearts shine through all that we do and let our work speak for itself. These two things alone will attract every resource you will need in order to be successful.
