Business Savy?

I recently read the Knockout Entrepreneur by George Foreman. I was pretty disappointed by this book. It seemed random and scattered and repetitive. It also seemed like a glorified advertisement for George Foreman and the products he endorses. I was hoping for a book that would give me solid business advice as I pursue building my own Mary Kay business. www.marykay.com/msurrena
I found this book to be a way for George Foreman to "toot his own horn" and I was very disappointed.

I would like to thank BookSneeze www.booksneeze.com for allowing me to read and review this book!

Back to our regular schedule!

It is really nice to be back to our regular schedule! I loved having my kiddos and husband home for the holidays but it is really nice to get back to being more productive with a little "free" time for myself to accomplish some things, especially as I try to really grow my Mary Kay business! I have some BIG goals for myself, our family and my business this year! I've been reflecting on these catagories and what I would like my goals to be in each: Spiritual, Health, Family, Relationships, Mary Kay, Fitness & Financial. I can't wait to look back and see how much I've (we've) grown, accomplished, etc.
Some of our big goals include:
- to find a house we LOVE and move!
- to discover what my husband wants to call his career and really pursue a job change.
- to grow my Mary Kay business in ways I can only dream about at this point!
- to (as a family) start volunteering with Kids Food Basket - because NO child should ever have to wonder whether or not they will have food for their next meal!
