4. Intentionally recite these affirmations each morning and before going to bed while looking at the mirror. Do so with prayer.

5. Develop corresponding actions to support and reinforce your thoughts and affirmations.

6.

an abridged excerpt from

ENTER THE CAVE

by Sheila Durden

Unbeknownst to her, she set about a mission to acquire as much knowledge as she could – if she couldn’t be right within herself, she would amass enough knowledge to have the right answers. She wrapped her value in the ability to be exceptional at everything she did, but didn’t translate her value into her business pricing to avoid the risk of rejection. She feared being exposed as inadequate, to being as wrong as she felt inside.

She accumulated many raving clients who undoubtedly appreciated the low price of the excellence she provided.

Yet, a persistent desire to expand her business never allowed her to get comfortable. Her vast dreams called to her incessantly – begging her to take steps to propel forward. She responded by striving to acquire more skills and more knowledge.

Ultimately, her greatness was being strategically developed; yet, she sold access to it for far less than it was worth. www.unstoppablewomensempire.com

One day, a new client told her a specific dollar amount that would have been willingly paid for her services. She shuddered under the weight of the realization that she had left 90% of unrealized profit on the table. It was time for real change.

She decided to enter the cave.

Identifying & Overcoming Hindrances In August, I delivered a God inspired, two-part message series to my church.

The topics were Hindrances to Receiving, and Removing Hindrances.

There is an answer and a way to remove any hindrances, so that we move forward.

Sometimes we see our hindrances, sometimes we don’t. With all that God provides for us, we can still find ourselves in situations that hinder His blessings from flowing freely into our lives.

A few keys to help overcome hindrances:

Here are a hindrances:

common

Lack of Vision Lack of Trust Unbelief Unworthy to Receive Ignorance Distractions that arise from: Lifestyle Social Group Routines Activities This message is relevant in every area of our lives. We can ask ourselves, what is creating difficulties, resulting in delays, or what has gotten in the way?

Faith in God Faith in your purpose Confidence Trust Hope Obedience As we move to the ending of 2022 and approach a fresh season of 2023, let’s finish strong.

In everything that I do – whether it’s walking by faith and not by sight, working as an HR Professional, or Designer & Owner of Y-Vette Creative Jewelry – I’ve made up my mind to move forward in all that God has for me.

Come on and let’s go together!

She's also an aspiring author.

Welcome to fall! Here in Michigan, the temps are dropping, & yet it also feels like a time of renewed energy & new opportunities. Kiddos are back in school & the flurry of the impending holiday season is upon us. Transition, stress, progress...all wrapped up together. Yes! That's fall. Here are a few tips to help make your fall FABULOUS! 1) SLOW DOWN & SAVOR. A huge part of self-care is setting your own pace. While more & more things vie for our attention, decide upfront that you will live your priorities rather than just reacting to whichever voice is screaming the loudest. Boundaries are good, & "No" is a complete sentence. Reserve your BEST for things & people that you love. This means your time, energy & affection.

2) REMEMBER TO HAVE FUN. For me, I LOVE playing with new colors in the fall! That means busting out my fall wardrobe & maybe finding a few new pieces. It also means switching it up with my make-up & accessories. Explore new music. If you are a "classical" fan, try hip hop or jazz. Leave your desk & take a walk outside. Fall is a time to "switch it up".

3) EMBRACE NEW VISION. Everything laid on your heart IS possible. You just have to have a great plan, great support, & great character. Sometimes year-long goals seem too "far off". Why not break your goals into QUARTERS? Think, "what can I accomplish in Sept./ Oct./ Nov. quarter to propel me into abundant success for 2023? Your time is NOW!

For me, I am OVER-THE-MOON thrilled to be launching into a new season with new office space! Thanks to Dr. Carmen, I'll be working my Mary Kay business from Transformation Gems office in Lansing. This also means that once or twice a week, our conference rooms will serve as "DIVA studio". (Divas walking In Victory & Abundance). If you don't already have a MK consultant, I would LOVE to meet with you in our studio & work together to discover & enhance your unique beauty. Just reach out! 517-861-1601 It's all part of being FALL FABULOUS!
