My Daughter, My Inspiration

I don’t know why I introduced Alexa to Keyani.  All she wants to do is to talk to her and sometimes they get into arguments. However I do enjoy listening the back and forth conversations. Sometimes I’m glad she is around and sometimes I feel I want to return her. (Not my child, Alexa)haha!
_______________________________

I remember the times when my little precious gift was all a cloud in my head. So little, didn’t know how to hold her, I was so afraid of her choking on her food, I was super afraid I would roll over her in bed when she was next to me. Anyway is was an adventure that I know you lived if you have kids.

Sometimes as parents we feel paralyzed for a lack of better word.  Parenting can be very challenging, but I want you to realize how blessed you are.

As a parent my role as well as your role will never end until you are six feet under. If you do parenting right, the memories,  experiences and seeds of wisdom that you deposit in your child will last throughout your lifetime,  and for many generations after.

That is the legacy you want to leave to your child and their children’s children.  If the legacy is going to happen, we as parents must rise up and begin to take back our children and families.

Keyani was my inspiration to become a Family and Parenting Coach. I am on a mission to have a better life for my daughter and children in this world.  I’m all about providing tools, techniques and tips on how to effectively lead, guide, direct and train my child and your children in a way where they are able to reach their full potential.  I have the best parenting coach there is that helped me get certified. She helped me be where I wanted to be as soon as I found out I was pregnant. She was my GPS and I am greatly blessed. ❤

Cuanto Tiempo

Si tan sólo supieran cuánto tiempo, esfuerzo, miedo y lágrimas me costó volver a reconstruirme, entonces entenderían porque ahora tengo mayor cuidado al elegir quien entra en mi vida y quien no. Hay personas que no les importa destrozarnos el alma, por ello debemos cuidarnos.

I Speak Three Languages, Body, Spanish and English

Your body language just doesn’t just affect how other see you. It affects how you see yourself.

Small tweaks in your posture and appearance can mean big changes in your love life, your career, and your bank account.

Becoming more attractive is easier and less superficial than you think.

According to multiple studies, positive emotion expands your ability to deal with adversity and stress. It broadens your scope of thinking, meaning that you make better decisions after experiencing a boost of positive emotion.

You are also more likely to engage in healthy behaviors such as exercise. Those who experience more positive emotion over time are more likely to get promoted, obtain a raise, and find themselves in a strong , lasting marriage.

Understanding the power of your body language is about much more than controlling your image and how other people feel about you. It is also controlling how you feel about you and what you think. What you think is what you become.

Appearance is a language of its own. And like any other language, you must learn to speak it well in order to communicate successfully.

Our brains are always on the lookout for cues. Is this person trustworthy? Are they credible? Are they out to get me? Should I spend the finite amount of time I have on my calendar with them? Should I invest my resources here? To answer those questions, we must begin somewhere. And the easiest place to start is with what we see.

As much as we’d like to believe that looks don’t matter , they do. Putting effort into your appearance yields results that influence people’s decisions about you.

APPEARANCE CAN BUILD YOUR CREDIBILITY OR DISMANTLE IT.

When trying to influence others, consider whether your appearance builds a bridge to your goal or a detour from it.

What story your appearance tell about you? Since we are talking about how successful women speak differently, it is a reasonable question to ask: “What exactly does your appearance speak of you?”

Your appearance is a form of communication. So ask yourself. What does my appearance communicate to those around me, at work, in social settings, at church, and in my community? Is that the message I want to communicate, or is it time for some tweaks and changes?

The Importance Of Knowing Who You Are

I finished reading this book for the second time, however I don’t remember talking about it, may be I did, maybe I didn’t.

I want you to understand how important it is for you to know yourself. We tend to always learn about others, specially a person we admire, a singer, someone successful or someone we like to have in our lives like a boyfriend/girlfriend, etc… but very seldom we try to learn about ourself.

I won this book in a raffle few years ago in a women leadership event at my alma mater Mary Baldwin University and I was so excited when my named was called.

If you are interested in knowing more about yourself, your strengths and how you can make an impact in your life and others I would recommend this book for you. It is never too late to start.

Sometimes we have a hard time trying to understand ourselves, that has happened to me and I always like to find all different tools possible that will give me more wisdom about how I am wired and where I can do better by strengthening my strengths. I do not want to waste my time working too hard on my weaknesses. I like for other people to help me where I need help, instead to spend to much time in things that I am not good at and things that do not interest me.

The strengths based leadership book is for great leaders, teams and to make you gain knowledge as to why people follow. This is developed by members of the Gallup organization. It is a survey that nearly 10 million people have used to discover their top five natural strengths.

Staying in your strength gives you an advantage. In a world where people spend much of their time shoring up their weaknesses your focus on maximizing your strengths will set you apart from others.

I am going to share with you my top five.

1. Learner: Because I have high Learner, I have a great desire to learn and want to continuously improve. The process of learning, rather than the outcome, excites me.

2. Responsibility: Because I have high Responsibility, I take psychological ownership of what I say I will do. I am committed to stable values such as honesty and loyalty.

3. Deliberative: Because I have high Deliberative, I am best described by the serious care I take in making decisions or choices. I anticipate obstacles.

4. Relator: Because I have high Relator, I enjoy close relationships with others. I find deep satisfaction in working hard with friends to achieve a goal.

5. Significance: Because I have high Significance, I want to make a big impact. I am independent and I prioritize projects based on how much influence they will have on my organization or people around me.

The more you focus on your strengths, the better you will be positioned to see and seize opportunities as they arise.

#Givethanks

You need people in your life that are further along than you, people that have a bigger vision, people that are more experienced, people that are out of your league. You need to be exposed to new levels so that you can go to new levels.
I’m extremely thankful for all of those people in my life. #givethanks
