Creating Balance in an Always Busy World

Whether we are a married, not married, with kids or without kids we are all always busy. We often find ourselves lost in the busyness of our day. Have you ever thought about what a balanced life would look like for you?

What is balance? Balance is taking care of yourself and all that is important to you.

Because each of us our unique in our own way, we will also have different ways of creating balance in our lives. What may seem crazy and out of whack to one person, may be the perfect balanced schedule for another.

So, how do we go about creating balance in our life? First we have to decide on what balance means to us.

What does your ideal balanced life look like?

· What do you have time for?
· What do you get to enjoy?
· How much down time do you have?

Once you have decided what your ideal balanced life looks like try this great exercise to help with re-organizing your schedule, so that it more closely reflects your ideal balanced life.

Clear the clutter from your calendar: Imagine that your calendar is like a room that you are going to clean out and organizze. Start by removing everything in your calendar. Once you have cleared your calendar, start by inserting what you absolutely must have to survive, like sleep and work. Then start to add things back in order of importance. Make sure to add "me time", just like it is an appointment with an important client.

Special Note: Make choices based on what YOU want and not on what YOU think other people want. Stop doing things because YOU think you "should". Remember that it is OK to say NO!

Today is the day to begin living in balance. Reconnect with your passion and interests and establish a sense of purpose. Remember a good plan and budgeting your time is a fabulous way to maintain balance in your life.

10 Fabulous Ways for Women Entrepreneurs to Stay Motivated

Running your own business is a lot of work and sometimes it can be hard to stay motivated. We all have days that we feel inspired, on track and powerful and we also have days that we want to crawl under a rock and ask ourselves what was I thinking… why in the world did I go into business for myself?

Here are some great ways to stay fabulously motivated as you grow your business:

  1. One of the most important things you can do is focus on your vision for your business each morning. Remember WHY you started your business and WHY it is so important to you.
  2. Re-connect with the excitement you had when starting your business. Let the feeling of endless opportunity soak through your body, then harness that feeling to move you throughout the day.
  3. At the end of each day celebrate what you have accomplished, even the smallest task. Keeping a positive attitude about yourself and what you have accomplished each day goes a long way to keep you motivated.
  4. Read, Listen and Watch. There is nothing like a great affirmation, quote, book or fabulous song to get you reconnected and motivated to move forward. In a slump half way through the day? Throw on one of your favorite songs and dance around for 5 minutes.
  5. Educate. Be willing to continuously educate yourself. Continually educating yourself builds self confidence and equips you with the knowledge needed to build your business.
  6. Surround yourself with high energy, positive people. The excitement and positive energy of others will rub off on you and get you just as excited about your business.
  7. Keep your space organized. Having a messy office space is a quick energy zapper. Before the end of the day straighten up and prepare for the next day by prioritizing your most important tasks to get done.
  8. Join a networking group. The right group will keep you inspired, motivated and can be a great place to share and support each other through issues and problems.
  9. Take time for yourself. A key factor in losing motivation is not taking time for you. It is easy to get wrapped up in business and lose yourself, but it is vital to your success that you take time to enjoy down time that is just for you.
  10. Judge yourself on the progress you’re making and not by the balance in your bank account or by the word success… What is success anyway? It is the continuous progress you are making.

    You are an amazing person. Cherish yourself in all that you do and the value you have to offer to others. Believe in yourself and keep moving forward and your vision will come forth.

Saving Relationships One Month at a Time!

PMSbuddy.com, the company that is literally saving relationships, one month at a time, just made their subscribers’ lives a little easier with the introduction of the PMS Buddy application for the iPhone and iPod Touch.

Available direct from any web ready iPhone or iPod Touch and via iTunes, the PMS Buddy application is quickly becoming a must have download for both men and women everywhere.

“Let’s be honest, no man has ever been given a kind answer to the question Honey, do you have PMS?” explains Jordan Eisenberg, Founder and CEO of www.PMSbuddy.com. “It’s hard to put a price tag on never having to ask that question, but we did, and for $.99 cents, the PMS Buddy application keeps guessing games at bay with convenient updates.”

Eisenberg also stated that while women have been slower to publicly accept PMS Buddy, many users are indeed female and rely on the application to track their own cycles. Regardless of gender, most find the application to be both comedic, and useful. Reviews can be found on www.PMSbuddy.com and when purchasing.

Currently, the PMS Buddy service is utilized by over 100,000 people worldwide allowing users to track PMS (Premenstrual Syndrome) via the website www.PMSbuddy.com. The new iPhone application features:

• A unique PMS meter that shows green to red warning levels
• Display of date when PMS will begin
• Automatically calculates upcoming PMS dates
• Ability to track up to 10 women

About PMS Buddy
Launched March 2008, PMS Buddy is the first and only user based digital service to keep men informed of when the women in their lives will be suffering from PMS. Complete with a “National Alert Meter,” Facebook application, iPod application and interactive message board, PMS Buddy has amassed more than 100,000 users. For more information, visit

Hot Pink Pick of the Week


Spring is in full bloom and before we can blink an eye Summer will be in full force!

Have you ever thought about getting a body wrap to tighten and smooth things out? Wondered if it works? I have got some great gals who will not only take care of you, but give you a fabulous Body Contour Wrap that you will be raving about to all your girlfriends!

Body Contour & Detox Wrap is great if you have been losing weight, working out or just taking care of your body.

It's a wonderful natural way of detoxing the body of UNWANTED cellulite & toxins. This helps to free and remove trapped waste in connective tissue, eliminating internal disfiguring deposits and stimulating inch loss. From 2 to 14 inches lost in 1 wrap!

This is not a water loss but a permanent inch loss. This contours the body so the muscles will be more defined. We recommend a series of 3 to 6 sessions to achieve the best results. There shouldbe 4-7 days between each wrap or 5-10 lbs if on a weight loss program. Eating the right types of foods, proper exercise and drinking 8 glasses of water a day are always recommended.No shower or bath after the wrap.

The skin will be hydrated and refreshed. The creme will continue to work up to 24to 36 hours due to the stimulation of increased flow though the lymphatic & circulatory systems.

Our wrap hydratesand tightens the skin, leaving it looking and feeling soft. While you are wrapped on the table, the therapist will massage your feet, scalp or shoulders. You will feel Pampered and relaxed while losing inches.

Schedule your appointment this week and receive a special Always Busy Woman offer: 10% off your first visit.
