Skyrocketing debt?

After reading about the national debt skyrocketing,
I’m super curious: how many of my friends actually stick to a monthly budget or financial plan?
Be honest, who’s got their finances in check and who’s just winging it?
I would like to know.

Did you know…

There’s an online store that…

  • Manufactures everything here in the USA
  • Is way cheaper than Walmart and Target
  • Carries non toxic everyday essentials (no child proof caps)
  • The company is 39 years old
  • Has over 400 products you currently buy
  • Ships to you FAST (1-3 days)

Yeah… neither did I, until someone told me about it twenty years ago, and now I can’t stop shopping.

You’re Welcome.

Staying “Focus”ed

I have been taking this product since June 2024. I have to say that it is an absolute game changer for mental clarity and consistent focus ability.
One small capsule per day first thing in the morning, and it literally lasts all day long. I feel amazing. I am fully alert and focused throughout the entire day.

BEWARE OF ASPARTAME

Artificial Sweetener called Aspartame is actually a brain drug that stimulates your brain so you think that the food you’re eating tastes sweet. You’ll notice that when using Aspartame everything you eat at the same time also tastes sweet.

Aspartame breaks down to Aspartic Acid 40%, Phenylalanine 50%, and Methanol 10%at 86 degrees—which to some, it becomes as poisonous concoction
For example, there is mounting evidence that the “Burning Mouth Syndrome” experienced by the Desert Storm troops was actually Methanol poisoning from the Diet Coke they heavily drank after it had been exposed to desert temperatures.

Aspartames 40% Aspartic Acid is an “excitotoxin” in the brain and excites neurons to death, that is, it kills brain cells and causes other nerve damage and it triggers Migraine Headaches. If you consume foods containing aspartame and begin to display some of the symptoms displayed below, you may want to stop. using those products to see if your symptoms showing sign of improvement. Sometimes, avoiding added chemicals is the best action you can take.

Happy Valentines Day!

This is a day that is often filled with roses, cards and CHOCOLATE!

Believe it or not, dark chocolate is a heart-healthy choice (when not loaded up with sugar and saturated fat). Combine it with almonds and it gets even healthier because almonds can help reduce blood clots. When enjoyed in moderation, studies show that Dark Chocolate can be a heart healthy choice.

Dark Chocolate can help in:

  • Making platelets in the blood less sticky and able to create clots, which can cause heart attack or stroke.
  • Processing nitric oxide, which helps improve blood flow throughout the body, including the brain.
  • Lowering the risk of insulin resistance, which reduces the risk of diabetes.
  • Controlling chronic inflammation, which can lead to heart disease..

Keep in mind the higher the percentage of cocoa, the greater the amount of flavanols, but also the greater the bitter flavor. Just a bite or so a day is all you need to reap the cardiovascular benefits.

Time = Freedom.

Being self-employed or building a side business has many benefits for the right person:
– Flexible schedule
– Creative freedom
– Unlimited impact and income potential
– Personal growth opportunities
– Independence and autonomy
– Tax deduction advantages
– Pursuing personal passions
– Building a legacy

At the same time there are challenges … like having staff meetings with yourself.
In my experience, the benefits far outweigh any challenges. Just this past week a friend needed my support and I was able to make a choice to be there.

The benefits of being self-employed:
– Work from anywhere fitting my purpose around a personal choice.
– Being in-touch but out of reach as I decide on what gets priority at any particular moment
– Being in business for myself, but not by myself with colleagues with a common purpose who can cover for me.

What do you love about being self-employed? Or are you looking to build a PlanB side business into time freedom?

Make it a great Tuesday!
