GRAND ACHIEVER

No, it's not pink...at least not YET!
Let me start from the beginning. As you may or may not know, I have been a beauty consultant with Mary Kay for since May of 2001. Mary Kay was a bright light in my life and offered love and stability when it seemed my world was falling down around me. I worked my business consistently for about a year and even started to build a team. By the end of the first year, I had gotten divorced, moved about five times, and changed jobs. I was also getting to know Jesus better and better, and I began to hear Him calling me to bigger and better things. I traveled overseas four times in eighteen months, and went back to school for two years where I prepared for leadership in the Church. For a few years, my business took a back seat. I still enjoyed the products, of course, so I placed an order whenever I could to get my 50% discount. The thing I have loved the most about Mary Kay is that my sister consultants, the company, and my business have always been here waiting for me. Even when I went all that time, not paying any attention to any of them.
Almost exactly one year ago, I decided it was time to get back in business. By this time, of course, I had a new, wonderful, amazing husband and a baby boy on the way. I worked hard for four months until Andrew was born on April 30th. Since then, as I have adjusted to being a working mom, I have been filling reorders but not really holding appointments. Until now.
My husband and I have been recently been looking at our finances and trying to find a way for me to stay home at least part time. Over the holiday break I have thought and thought and prayed and prayed and thought and thought about what to do. The answer is obvious to me - and a little scary. It is time for me to overcome my fear of falling short. Its time for me to stop making excuses and really get serious about this business. It is time for me to set some real goals.
Today, I decided that I am going to have a free car from Mary Kay by July 1st. You all can help me. Support my business by calling me or ordering from my website. Earning a car is not just about sales; it's also about team building, so introduce me to anyone you know who might love our products OR be interested in starting their own business. This is a wonderful company - and I can't wait to share it with anyone who wants a BIG DISCOUNT on their skin care, positive interaction with POSITIVE WOMEN, and a chance to EARN MONEY to support their family (or their addiction to shoes)!
If you can't be a customer or a team member, you can still help...PRAY for me and my future team! Remember, my DREAM is not the car - my DREAM is to be at home with my baby boy. Look how fast he's growing...I don't want to miss a minute of that!
Love you guys!
