Visualize

The other night I was watching Jerseylicious (don't judge). In the episode, Olivia made a visual board that has her dreams on it. Of course her dreams were about owning a certain cat, living in an apartment of her dreams, and having certain make up brushes. She was talking about putting out positive energy and having the visual board somewhere near so she always sees it (at home or at work). I need more positive energy while I'm at work so I figured I would make my own so I can look at it everyday and understand why I go through the hell I do from day to day: To one day have my dreams. I encourage everyone (if anyone reads this) to create...

Exercising for prizes

I know exercising can be dull and sometimes you're not motivated enough to get off your couch. Well I found this cool pedometer watch that keeps track of how long you exercise. Every 60 minutes you work out, you will get a code to redeem for gift cards to places like Best Buy, Sears, etc. The watches only cost $19.95. I need to get one asap, maybe it will help motivate me to get out there and get movi...

7 tips for handling a mean manager

Now how do I get my boss' to read this? Hmm.... Michelle Ward has worked for a slew of mean managers in her career. One of the most notable, she says, was a bully. "The better you did your work, the more he'd verbally abuse you," she recalls. The second was when she was an assistant to an executive who made her unpack five boxes -- which she had spent all day packing -- so he could have diet orange soda when he came into the office that night.But Ward, now a career coach, says that dealing with these types of managers came down to one thing: standing up for herself."By standing up for myself and/or not engaging, it allowed me to keep...

4 down

On Easter I started my new adventure for weight loss. This time trying to find something that I will stick with and knowing that this is something I will have to stick with until the day I die. This in mind, I thought Weight Watchers would be an excellent choice for me. It allows me to eat the foods I want so therefore I won't be falling off any wagon and it's a more realistic weight loss/diet method than I have seen. Since Easter (April 24, 2011) I have lost 4 lbs. That's 2 lbs a week. And what makes this more exciting is that not only have I not worked out yet (which will help with more lbs. per week lost in the beginning stages) but I don't...
