I'm EXHAUSTED! But it's BLISSFUL exhaustion!
WOW! What a week I've had! In the last 4 days I traveled from Anchorage, AK to Fairbanks, AK then from Fairbanks back to Anchorage then from Anchorage to Vegas and from Vegas back to Anchorage! and....BOY ARE MY ARMS TIRED (buh-dum-dum)!
In Fairbanks I was able to see my son at the airport! Passing like ships in the night! He was coming in as I was headed out! There is ALWAYS time for kiss, a hug and a SELFIE! He works as a Firefighter and Medic at Kuparuk which is in the Prudhoe Bay Oilfields at the very tippy top of Alaska... GOOGLE IT!
I was also able to meet with one of my favorite people in the WORLD! SueAnn!
SueAnn was the second person to join my Younique adventure. She is also a Founding Presenter and she is one of my First Generation Elites! Its so nice to spend one on one time with other leaders in our company. Its rare! Mostly because we are all so busy managing our own books of business!
SueAnn is HILLARIOUS! Here she is mimicking the cover photo from our Fall 2013 Catalog! CRACKING US UP! Love that woman!
I saw a few other team members while I was there as well. BUSY 12 hours! PHEW!
This weekend was my only free weekend in MONTHS and I needed to pop into our home in Vegas to take care of a few things so OFF I WENT! While there, I was so fortunate to be able to interview with an amazing woman named Susan! I'm so hopeful she chooses me as her sponsor. Regardless, Younique will be lucky to have her! So many beautiful women with so many amazing stories!
I met with Katrina which was GREAT FUN and she gifted me this awesome 3D Keychain! HOW SWEET IS SHE?
Vegas is always GREAT but I made one HUGE, ROOKIE, Direct Sales mistake that I still can't stop thinking about! Wanna hear what it was? CLICK HERE FOR THE VIDEO RECAP OF MY MISSADVENTURE! Hindsight is always 20/20 right?
BELIEVE YOU ME! I more than made up for this on the plane ride home! The poor guy next to me went home with a catalog and 4 business cards with a challenge to give them to 4 very specific types of women! LOL! Oddly, I don't think he thought I was nuts at all.... hmmmm....
I have had sleeping issues for years. Before I even started working my Younique business, it was very rare that I would experience a full 4 hours+ of sleep! I'm not sure why exactly. I did all the right things. I have a beautiful and relaxing environment, set to the ideal temperature, fine linens, a great mattress, perfect pillows... THE WORKS! I've read every article, consulted my doctor, changed my eating habits, taken sleep aids...I've TRIED IT ALL I TELL YAH! No dice!
Then I started my Younique business (Mar 2013) and for the first 6-8 months NEVER slept. Literally didn't sleep more than a couple hours at a time. But, the difference was, I had my business to work on instead of laying there in bed, frustrated that I was awake when I should have been sleeping! I WORKED ALL THE TIME! I loved it! It really isn't work at all of course if you are doing something you are MADLY IN LOVE WITH right? SO TRUE!
For about the last 3 months or so I haven't had any problem sleeping at all. My brain is so exhausted each night, I just seem to collapse in the sack! LIGHTS OUT the instant my head hits my pillow! Sleeping every night with a huge smile on my face. That has been a great improvement!
For the last couple of weeks I have been feeling exhausted though. Like during the day. I think I need to work on setting some office hours and finding a bit more balance. I don't feel stress about it but I don't like feeling tired during the day either. Im exhausted but it is BLISSFUL EXHAUSTION!
If you struggle with no sleep...I invite you to feel BLISSFULLY EXHAUSTED WITH ME!
