FAQ- Question & Answer Time

2010 Top 10 FAQ About Yours Truly

These questions came from several sources this past year; my website, Facebook page, youtube channel, and e-mails.  I thought I'd dedicate a blog entry to answer some of the inquiries.  ;-)

1.  What inspired you to start a blog?
I started reading blogs a long time before I actually decided to write one.  I've always enjoyed discussing, sharing, and exploring random ideas, products, and concepts. It's not uncommon for me to try something new, fall in love with it and then passionately tell all my close family and friends how they "Have to Try it!"  Additionally, I love to write.  I'm not that great writing but I love it just the same.  Blogging seemed like a great forum for me to do what I love doing on a larger scale.  Blogging has provided me a forum to share my random thoughts and things I'm passionate about with a larger audience than just my family and friends.  (I'm assuming  someone out there is really reading these blogs!) lol!

2.  How long have you been blogging?
I wrote my first blog entry in October 2009.

3. What age/sex are your children?
My son will be 21 years old February of this year.  He's a college junior.  Elijah's hobbies include playing video games &  listening to music.  He's a low key guy with a great sense of humor.  My daughter is 19.  She is a sophomore in college.  Imani's a dancer and has a passion for art.  Elijah & Imani are 17 months apart and get along very well with one another. 

4. Favorite food?
Honestly, I don't have a favorite food.  I enjoy eating lots of things.  Crab legs, lobster, shrimp, fish, Italian food, chicken gyros, Spanish food, blackberries, cheesecake...I love a good salad and homemade soup and fresh piece of banana bread out the oven.......Yes, I can keep going.  Let's just say I like to eat good food. 

5. Are you a health professional?
No, I am not a traditional health professional.  I have a degree in Psychology.  I have been in the social service field for over 20 years.  I am a certified wellness coach & nutritional advisor.  My passion is to bring awareness to help people live a healthy life and make healthier lifestyle choices.

6. What do you use on your skin?
I get comments/questions about my complexion often.  There's no denying, I definitely have been blessed with good genes.  Despite the genes, I've been an avid user of skin care since I was about 18 years old.  I am very anal about cleansing my face morning and night.  My current skin care is by It Works  I use the entire system.  It's a good skin care system however, lately I'm starting to think I need products with more anti-aging properties because I am in my 40's now!  Don't want to push the whole gene thing too far.

7. Current relationship status?
I am single. Casually dating.

8. Do you have a favorite blog ?
I subscribe to quite a few blogs.  Here's 4 that I really enjoy  :
Cupcakes and Cashmere
Mane &Chic
The Noshery
Whole Story


9. Book Recommendations?

Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill
The Science of Being Great by Wallace D. Wattles

10.  What keeps you inspired?
My inspiration comes from faith in God, my family, setting goals, and surrounding myself with positive, like-minded people.

I will be doing this.  I believe there is an unbelievable power that is grounded in gratefulness.  

Join Me, let's start a movement of praise.  

"In All things Give Thanks!"

Sometimes You Have to Encourage Yourself!

Reflecting today on my goals and ambitions.  Taking inventory on the relationships in my life that feed me and those that drain and deplete me.  I'm taking a moment this morning and focusing on what it is that drives me.  Focusing on my strengths and celebrating my accomplishments.  I'm so grateful for vision in my life.  I'm grateful for that inner voice that won't let me quit.  You can't stop my "Go!"  All things are possible.  Les Brown sums it up best here:

“If you want a thing bad enough to go out and fight for it, 

to work day and night for it, 

to give up your time, your peace and your sleep for it…

if all that you dream and scheme is about it, 

and life seems useless and worthless without it…

if you gladly sweat for it and fret for it and plan for it 

and lose all your terror of the opposition for it…

if you simply go after that thing you want 

with all of your capacity, strength and sagacity, 

faith, hope and confidence and stern pertinacity…

if neither cold, poverty, famine, nor gout,

sickness nor pain, of body and brain, 

can keep you away from the thing that you want…

if dogged and grim you beseech and beset it, 

with the help of God, you will get it!” 

---Les Brown
