Show me the money!!!
How awesome would that be? If someone gave you some simple tools to make extra income to help out with groceries, or to be able to pay for all your kid's sports needs, to be able to quit your job and be home with your children. Do you hate your job and want to take control of your career and work for yourself? I have decided to be home with my children AND help bring in some income WHILE helping others reach their goals. Sort of reminds me of a coach or teacher (which I was a teacher for 9 years).
So are you curious now? AdvoCare pays you in 5 ways...yes I said 5 different ways!
1. Your retail sales
2. Wholesale commissions (when someone orders from your site)
3. Override commission (up to 7%)
4. Leadership commission
5. Bonuses and Incentives
Advocare pays out a total of $20,000 in Rookie Advisor Bonuses every two weeks!
1st place- $6,000
2nd place- $4,000
3rd place- $3,000
4th place- $2,500
5th place- $2,000
6th place- $1,500
7th place- $1,000
Now who is curious? Leave a message or email me if you'd like to hear more. AdvoCare is a GAME CHANGER for your life. It is up to YOU to make it happen!
Kids and TV
Let me start off with one confession....this has been a very long weekend at my house. It has been rainy and wet and a 4 day weekend. So we have been cooped up inside. Which leads to my next thought...am I a referee or a mother? Lately feeling more like a referee!
In a conversation between hubby and I we were discussing TV and our kids. We stated we hated they watched so much but at times, it is our only relief. (sad to admit). So in an effort to cut back on TV watching and lower cable costs, we decided we would cut back our cable to the very basic plan....Great idea right! If you only have a few channels (Disney not included) then they won't have such an interest.
So being proactive, I called Knology to discuss our options. Well, this is where it gets funny. I explained what I wanted and they said ok. We currently have a bundle package for home phone, cable and internet. They are offering a new customer package they were wiling to give me. Only saved about 20 bucks a month). So I asked for individual services for each and that total for very basic/local cable, home phone and high speed internet was MORE than what I am paying now- WHAT JUST HAPPENED HERE?
So my great idea completely backfired and I am at a loss on the whole cable thing- how can they do that?
So today, I see on a friend's FB page this link. The effects of TV on kids – brain development Health Nut www.healthnutblogger.com. Some of the things they list are things hubby and I discussed this weekend. Like more reading, getting more stuff done around the house, more games....
How do you limit TV for your kids? Would love some ideas from fellow readers.

Great way to start Monday
"You can think about the past, you can plan for the future, but the only time you experience life is right now. This is as good as it gets! Life is always happening right now. If you are constantly re-running the "to-do" list through your mind, or rushing to get one thing done so you can do something else, you miss this moment. In the blink of an eye, life goes by and you wonder how you got to be that person in the mirror" (read on a friends FB page).

This picture is proof
Megan's Photos
This is a big deal to me to post this picture. No one except for me will know how much of a struggle weight has been since I had children and even before children. I want to motivate other people and new moms, if I can do this YOU CAN TOO. But this is my before and afters of the past month of eating healthy.... I am no where near what I WILL be and what I need to be.. but as of right now, I am HAPPY and oh so HEALTHY. Not Biggest Loser kinda weight loss.. but I am proud bc I did it the right way. The before picture literally makes me sad, not only was I very big, I felt awful all the time.

Motivation
As I was blog hopping tonight, I came across a blog that asked it's readers- What Motivated You? Have you ever stopped to think about motivation? Is there too much or a lack of motivation in your daily routine. Everyone has the same amount of time in a day but there always seems to be- not enough time.
I pondered the question for a minute and by far my BIGGEST motivator is my three darling children. They keep me on my toes at all times (even during the night). People are constantly asking me, "how do you do it?" Well, how do you not! God has blessed me with three healthy,beautiful and creative children and I DO IT for them.
So what motivates you?

Meeting New Mommies
Tonight was the Mardi Gras celebration at church with a fundraiser. The girls represented our Sunday School class as the "queens". I wanted to dress them up and get really into it, but glad I didn't because all they wanted to do was play on the big playground.
I have a friend who has fallen in love with AdvoCare products. She has done a wonderful job of sharing how great she feels with friends. Through her I met another mommy tonight. She has two small children and runs marathons....WOW! I don't think I could run a mile with a monster chasing me:( Anyways, her hubby is deployed and she was telling me she used AdvoCare products in 2003. She was asking questions and wanting more information. That's always exciting!
I love sharing quality products and TRUE stories of success.

Where are you?
Where are you? So many times I am asked what is my purpose? I am a stay at home mom with 3 children under 3 for a few more months at least. I know my primary purpose is raising my children in a Christian enviornment and making sure they are taken care of in every way. So that lleads me to my next thought...how can I make it better? That is how AdvoCare comes into my picture. I started on products because I needed more energy and wanted to get back down to my pre-preggo weight. Once I drank a Spark energy drink, I was hooked! Then I moved on to telling others how AWESOME the products were and decided to start an in home business to increase our income to help provide for our children (college, sports...whatever).
I have found an amazing family through AdvoCare and love interacting with all of them. Everyone is so willing to share information, ideas and give. Do you have that where you work? I was a teacher before and some schools were like that or better yet some teachers. But I ave also worked in a school where no one wanted to share and give. A me vs you mentality. Not my cup of tea. I love to help others and I am able to do that with thhis great company called AdvoCare.
I have people ask how I do it and my first thought is how do you not? My second thought is that I put world class nutrition in my system and that SPARKS my body in order to get through my day. Think about it like this- you service your car and change the oil to make sure it runs at it's best. Do you do that for your body? If you don't you SHOULD!
I continue to meet knew people and share my story and it's amazing how my business is growing. But then again, it's easy when the products are safe and they work!
Just some thoughts for today!

New Probiotic Boost
Attention all mommies and daddies!! Guess where 70% of your children's immune system is found...in their gut!! If you want to ward off illness, re-balance the gut flora after antibiotics and majorly help digestion, then your kids need to be... on a high quality probiotic (and not yogurt...not a good choice if you want actual results). This is great for kids: sprinkle on food, mix in milk/juice or eat straight out of the package like a pixie stick. Do you and your kids this one little favor...Helps with intestinal health, good digestion, immune system support and regularity!
Where have I been....
I have not been a good blog host but have a lot to share about AdvoCare.
I have decided to really get going in my business and help others who want to look good, feel good, and have extra income. My business has been doing very well in 2012. I completed the January BASIC TRAINING and have the tools and knowledge to hit the ground running.
I have people using products, people who love the products and want to get them at a discount and some that are thinking about a home-based business. Whatever you are looking for, there is something for everyone in AdvoCare!!!
I plan to do a better job keeping up with my blog by posting success stories from clients and product information. Please take a minute and subscribe as a follower.....
