Warning:Increase Awareness When Baking For Teenage Daughters

My Daughters And Eating

Our teens are watching us! What we eat, they eat! What we cook, they cook! Maybe not tomorrow but as adults, they will follow our lead!  Teaching our teen daughters to dress may be your first priority.  “Are you going to wear that to school”?, you might ask.  Well, what about what they are buying in the cafeteria? Are you concerned about that?

Teaching Our Daughters To Cook And Bake

Our daughters are so cute as babies. We feed them anything to get a giggle or grin out of them. Grandma’s especially like to feed them cookies and ice cream. While this is adorable, it sets our little darlings up for bad habits and addictions.

So What Should I Feed My Daughters?

We generally feed them what our mom fed us! Sadly, food choices have changed dramatically and preservatives and substitutes are causing weight gain for many young daughters.

Raising our daughters is our responsibility. They are our legacy! They may come back to you later in life and thank you or “curse you” for being a hippocrate or even worse, a poor example!

We don’t want that, right?

Daughters Become Wives and Mothers

Our daughters will be as wise, smart, and intelligent as their parents. It’s been said, “if your daughter goes to college and then stays home and raises her children, she is just wasting her degree.” This is an absolute mistake. Daughters who study for 4 years, learn many things. At the very least, they learn how to seek knowledge, to take tests, write papers, and study for exams. Of course, they learn how to work as a team, to obey instructions, to honor professors, and establish friendships. All of these are advanced skills and our daughters can become excellent parents after graduating from college.

Unfortunately, there are some skills not taught even in college. Primarily we call them “leadership skills” and “wealth training” skills. Of course, there are many students who enter college with some of these skills and it makes them all the more prepared to achieve high ranks in their careers and an ability to create wealth.

Educating Our Daughters

As parents, we have been given the responsibility to teach our children manners, civil duties, and morality. Leadership begins at home. There are some daughters who become dishonest employers. There are some women who are morally corrupt! Telling a lie here and their, they promote themselves over others. This little bit of error in judgment can bring our daughters to ruin later on in life!

Help For Daughters

Our daughters need us! The world has many obstacles in the way of understanding how to be a leader over our bodies, minds and moral life. We are not totally corrupt. But there are parts of us that need help throughout our lives to become the kind of daughter we are proud of.  Let’s help our daughters see someone special in the mirror each day. Lets teach them to cook and bake and eat healthy so they’ll stay fit and trim.  Let’s lead them on a healthy path their children, and your grandchildren, will one day tread.

Let’s help our teenage daughters begin life with honest awareness about habits of eating, thinking and leadership.

Branding You The Brand New You Book Review – The Fears Of Branding Yourself

Branding You The Brand New You Video Book Review

Branding You The Brand New You Video Book Review By Clicking The Picture.

What does branding you as a trusted authority mean?

Branding yourself in order to market your goods and services online can be quite a challenging endeavor. Before I wrote my first book about it, I experienced 2 years of hit and miss strategies, here now gone tomorrow online mentors, skill-set trainings, scam programs, manipulative messages, as well as some great skill and mindset development before I felt like I knew enough to enlighten and teach others. The test of skill is your ability to teach others with proficiency. In “Branding You The Brand New You, I share my experience and secrets as your trusted authority!

Offline Businesses And Branding You

Branding yourself online draws your followers to a specific niche you market to. It is something offline businesses need. It is also what network marketers who are part of Multilevel or Direct sales companies are doing to build huge businesses using the internet. I have been in several companies and have experience with good teams and bad teams, with good leadership and poor leadership.

Leadership and Branding You

Leadership has become one of my passions and it’s due to the poor quality of leadership demonstrated in all these platforms using online marketing. This type of team building draws charismatic leaders but needs much more to keep a loyal following. One must learn how to build “know, like and trust” in order to keep that following. While large businesses like Pepsi, Apple, and Nascar have tremendous skill at this, new wanna be leaders to online marketing training and team building are manipulative and greedy and the followers lose heart over time and jump from company to company looking for someone who has both skill and moral values in leadership.

Mindset + Skill-set X Performance = Branding You Results

Thousands of businesses are busy marketing their goods and services and customers only see the results of their efforts. Training systems are springing up all over the internet. I’ve been part of a few of them and learned alot using them.

Branding oneself requires the 4 P’s of high performance.

  1. Psychology
  2. Physiology
  3. Productivity
  4. Persuasion.

Experienced marketers are busy keeping up with the changing market for making money and have no desire to teach strategies for future competitors.

Some teachers and trainers are excellent at sharing this information for monthly fees to be part of a training and support community. However, Branding You The Brand New You is a book resource to equip you with coaching to prepare you with a firm foundation for marketing anything online. share my personal journey for the past 2 years. I tell you the people I met, the businesses I was in, the times I was scammed, robbed, and beaten up! Not literally, of course. I was online, behind my desk, so to speak!

Social Media and Branding You

Social media managers are the new trend. Marketers are creating trainings for business owners and affiliate marketers are getting commissions for sharing these training companies. In “Branding You The Brand New You”, I share my social media tips using Facebook, Skype, Linkedin, Twitter, You Tube and other communities and ways to brand yourself as a trusted authority.

Bitter Root Judgments and Forgiveness

At birth, a child cries instinctively in order to receive the pleasure of security. The pain incurred when a baby is delivered into the cold world removed from the warm stomach of the mother, causes at birth a feeling of fear and lack of security. As a child continues to grow, security is desired through many different avenues of satisfaction.

The moment a child feels the threat that brings a fear of lack of security, the child begins analyzing the surrounding for ways to feel safety again. A child may protect himself by deciding that a parent doesn’t have his safety at heart and the reaction may cause a judgement about that parent in hopes of preventing pain the child wants to avoid.

While the judgments are based on the immediate needs of the child, they are most likely not true, though this small immature mind has begun planting seeds of protection for himself. In many instances, these judgments bear fruit that causes the child to form ideas that take him further from the truth and more insecurity is created.

Parents may see fruit of these ideas being formed. However, they have no way of helping the child unless the child can plainly explain how the idea was formed earlier. These fruits must become grown up to bear fruit so as to decide whether the fruit is good or bad. At that point, a child or adult needs to take responsibility for the forgiveness to oneself as well as forgiveness to the parents or others they formed the judgment of. Forgiveness releases the judgment from the ground in which it grew and essentially, the pulling of it at it’s roots leaves room for the truth, a seed replacing the lies now exposed by the light.

Seeds and The Bitter Root

Parents are to provide the safest, loving environment they know how to provide for their children. As a child grows it’s the parents responsibility to do several things to assist the child in his discovery of a positive, successful life.

  • Children must be told they are in charge of their own mindset and must take responsibility for making good choices.
  • Growing children will make poor choices until they have a handle on the truth that they are unconditionally loved to live their true potential, to give the gifts they were born to give, to co create in true prosperity, and to become agents of change for those they will influence throughout life.
  • Parents must help them to feel safe.
  • Parents or those responsible for children must provide a belief system to support a life of  freedom, beauty and wonder of life, and  the possibilities to create available to them.

Competition and The Bitter Root

Some children feel there is no time for them. This judgment about their parents, especially when both parents work or when the children are raised by a single individual, cause the child to feel they must compete for their parents time. When their are other siblings, the competition stalls the productivity of the child’s mindset growth. This judgment is opposite to the truth that if a child is born, time makes a way to provide for him opportunity to grow, develop and have the love and safety needed.

  • Teach your child that their value is in the clay. They are valuable because they were born. They didn’t have to earn their value. The safety of their value grants them true life because they deserve it! God has SERVED (De – Serve) them to this earth for a purpose and it’s their privilege to live it out by seeking true life.
  • Children have purpose and should write out their “chief aim” for the next 5 years, repeating this every 5 years for the rest of their life. Thinking with the end in mind, children will reach forward toward the legacy they have purposed from early on. We have the freedom to believe in a positive future, whatever it is. Focus, get clear, and step forward believing it is happening daily!
  • Teach your children that nothing will get in their way. There is always a door to go through to take them towards the safety, security, happiness and joy they desire. This truth is so valuable, you may want to read it again!

Security and The Bitter Root

  • Remind your child that you are learning too! With age comes wisdom. They must expect to have more wisdom with age as well. Help them feel secure knowing you are working towards greater knowledge of living a happy, productive, successful life as they desire also.

Things To Consider about Bitter Root

  1. Who is responsible for your success in business and life?
  2. Decide to believe the best!
  3. Follow the fruit to the root of Bitter Root Judgments
  4. Turn on the light of failures in thought which caused bitter root judgments.
  5. Speak out loud with the same vigor of emotion used when you first “believed” the lie, and state the truth about it, denouncing its power. Forgive yourself and others with a simple statement from the heart.
  6.  Plant and protect the soil with a seed of truth that will grow a crop of good thoughts toward prosperity instead.
  7. Ask God (higher power, universe) to show you His love for you.
  8. Ask questions of others to clarify truth.
  9. Be a communicator.
  10. Direct others towards a fulfilling life free of bitter root judgements.

Life Insurance as Retirement Savings Option – Things to Consider

life insurance after retirement exercise

Our Plan For Life Insurance  After Retirement Includes Brings  Freedom

Thinking about Life Insurance?

If you are someone who is thinking of investing in a Life Insurance Policy to add on to your retirement savings then you must consider a few things before that. It is important to understand whether such a cover will at all be of any substantial value addition to your post retirement savings or not.

Firstly as soon as you seek expert advice, there might be chances that you will be flooded with mixed advice. Most of them will ask you to refrain from investing in a policy cover. According to them, it is mainly provided by people who are at the peak of their earnings willing to ensure that their families do not have to face financial hardships in case they die. So according to them it would be useless to invest in something like this when you already have reached your stage of retirement and do not have a large family to take care of apart from your spouse.

Life Insurance Cover

On the other hand, there will be others who will opine that it would be better if you invest in a Life Insurance Cover in case you have an estate that is subject to estate tax.

Whatever the expert opinions are, the decision to invest in such a scheme, lies with you. Here are certain questions that you must ask yourself before availing the benefits of the Life Cover:

Are you someone who has received substantial death in service benefits of your spouse?

If you are someone who has had the misfortune of loosing your spouse while he or she was still in service, and are entitled to considerable death in service benefits from the company you need not invest further in a Life Insurance in your retirement— these benefits are high enough to see you through your troubled days in case your children are grown up and you have nobody to look after

Are your premiums going to be costlier than usual just as you are older?

Life Insurance Premiums

Yes as you age, the premiums of the Life Policy will increase. For instance if you are 70 years old and are thinking of buying a level term insurance you will be charged double of what you would have paid in the age of 40.

Do you have anyone to look after even after your retirement?

If yes, then you can think of taking a Life Insurance Policy

Are you thinking of buying an insurance with the pension funds you have received, keeping your spouse as a nominee?

If yes then please remember that the road ahead is going to be very complicated. You have to calculate the total amount of pension that you are supposed to receive and substitute it accordingly with your life insurance policy— yes it is going to be that costly. In case you fail to pay the premiums regularly then both your Life Insurance and Premiums are gone.

Author Bio: Alan Starc has been passionately writing about informative insurance articles for quite some now. Relevant Life Policy is something about life insurance that he has been writing about in recent times.

Why Am I Here?

 

Did we come with a “life’s manual” to answer “Why Am I Here”?

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if all human beings were born with “manufacturer’s  instructions” tied to their wrists, explaining who they are and how they work? Of course, even if we did, most of us would probably skip the instructions and try to figure out life as we went along!

I believe human beings do come with the equivalent of operating instructions  that give us answers to our deepest questions about ourselves and our world like “why am I here”? Some of this information has been placed within us; the rest has been given to us by our Creator or “manufacturer” in written form.

Are You Confused about why am i here

There must be a reason why am I here!

Why Am I Here And Uncertainty

The reason we’re filled with such uncertainly and confusion about life is that we’ve lost our connection to these original instructions. We haven’t stopped to recognize our internal programming, or to read our life manual in order to understand our personal potential or how we work answering Why am I here? This is why we can’t see the purpose of the world itself and how it is supposed to function.

When we try but fail to solve what is broken in our lives and in our world, it is because our manufacturer’s labels have become faded, and we haven’t read this crucial instruction: “Do not try to repair yourself.  Return to Manufacturer.”

It is the Manufacturer who…

…has the original blueprints.

…knows how to repair what is broken inside us.

…can provide the replacement piece for what is missing in our lives.

Why Am I Here Replacement Pieces

When we discover the manufacturer’s original intent, we come to understand our purpose, our potential, to answer the question “why am I here?” and the significance of our role in this world.

Read more to answer the question “Why Am I Here?” and live with purpose and power.

What Is Direct Sales? How Do I Lead Others When I Join A Company?

Do You Have A Prosperity Mindset When It Comes To Direct Sales?

What is Direct Sales?

Can An Average Person Make Money In Direct Sales?

In a conversation I had recently, about direct sales with my friend and business partner Todd Gragg, we exposed some lies and shared some wisdom about direct sales.  The conclusion we came to is that we those entering into direct sales must take responsibility for the success that is at their disposal with the leadership training offered. Whether in direct sales, network marketing and MLM’s both online and off, leaders are being developed in these organizations and teams of leaders are being trained help others coming in after them to make money and achieve levels of success expected from companies of this sort.

Direct Sales and The Poverty Mindset

There are still some individuals who see the words MLM, Network Marketing, Direct Sales, Multilevel Marketing as  pyramid schemes.The Direct Selling industry is  a billion dollar industry.  There are nearly 5000 direct sales companies presently. All these companies are governed by the federal trade commission. If their was something illegal going on, the industry would be shut down. But it’s NOT!

poverty head in sand about direct sales

I Listen To The Wrong People About Direct Sales

All MLM’s, networking marketing, internet marketing and affiliate marketing is the same thing. Direct Sales.

Direct Sales And People Skills

So you’ve come online to generate income and you say you don’t want to deal with people? So do you know what you just said? You may as well leave the online industry because it’s all about PEOPLE! The beauty of this industry is that “the whole is greater than the sum of it’s parts“..

You can leverage people to create an income without the costs of franchising on your own. Companies have already laid out the big costs and you’re income is directly related to the work you put into any program.

You are the owner of your company or “brand”. Posture yourself as a leader. Who do you listen to? Kevin Trudeau says it best. “Listen to those who have what you want“. If you want wealth, listen to someone who is wealthy. If you want wisdom,

listen to someone who have the results a wise man has. If you want specific leaderships skills, listen to a leader who’s track record proves their leadership.

Direct Sales Business Investment

You tell me you haven’t the money to get started in a direct sales company.  There are companies which cost little to nothing to be part of. I joined them in my learning process before I found one that I felt I wanted to stick with. Don’t be afraid to experiment. The most important thing is developing your skills as a leader so that your investment is worth it. Your team will benefit from your self development.

The way to get the knowledge is to sacrifice something in order to achieve the great gains that the wisdom of a mentor and self development training will give you. In the end, you will have not only a prosperous mindset but a prosperous wallet as well.

Direct Sales is a model that works for an average people like myself, who was a stay at home mom turned online marketing entrepreneur. I came to realize that if I were to become wealthy in my purse, I had to strongly desire to develop leadership skills. Anyone who thinks like an average person will indeed prosper when they begin to trust that Direct Sales is a legitimate way to generate wealth over time and become above average.

Secrets For Making Money Online- How To Start Making Money Now

 

making money onlineMarketing Education Before Making Money Online

The need for a good marketing education with a proven system, a good mentor and coach and a community is the secret to making money online. In this article I will explain the simple strategies for getting the best marketing education before without getting scammed or spending your kids future.

 

Like all experienced marketers, I have been reading marketing materials, joined membership sites, learning about article, video, forum, classified ads marketing for over a year at the time of writing this article. I have talked to newbie, novice and guru marketers and I have observed that everyone at every level continues to educate themselves.

 

They all had the same problem.

 

They started out with little to no money and they wanted to make some quick. They had no knowledge and they scrambled to anything that promised millions. In their naivety, they lost more money and many left defeated. Some stayed and those are the ones who discovered the secret I am about to expose!

Making Money Online: Coaches and Mentors

 

Finding like-minded marketers through social media sites is the best way now to network for business success. I have been forming bonds for a long time that have influenced my marketing and helped me to exercise leadership and sometimes keep me from making mistakes if I had marketed without help.

 

Making Money Online: Training

 

Many marketing training systems are being developed by “novice” marketers and they are an attempt for these marketers to teach what they have been learning. These marketers are also building their brand and exercising the power of ‘perceived authority’ to those who know less than them.

 

Making Money : Advanced Training

The internet is evolving and it’s important to keep up with the current trends. Continual change in social media, ownership of the big sites, and shutdowns, new sites and products are continually showing the need for advanced training. Those in the know are generally those who have learned what to focus on. The novice to experienced marketers are generally up to date because of the focus on optimizing their sites, product offerings and mastermind groups they formed or been part of.

 

Making Money: Spending Your Money

 

The biggest deception is that making money online requires spending lots of it. When starting out making money online, more grunt work is done. The new marketers secret weapon is the “Novice marketer”. They will give away value in order to earn trust. After a while, may choose to spend big money on a product by the “gurus”. I will tell you though, more importantly, getting plugged in to a community will serve your interests way better. A mastermind group is a great benefit for you.

 

Making Money: Education

If you are new and want the basics for making money online, find a system that’s free to start. If you want an MLM to exercise new leaderships skills, find one that’s inexpensive to join. A good foundation is necessary before you jump into big time. If you have the money go ahead and join an expensive system. They will have optimized things for you and it may save you time.

Making Money: Spending Your Time

 

If you go the free to learn way, you will save money but spend more time. That’s the way I started. Or if you have a couple hundred dollars extra per month to spend on training, go ahead and do that. Either way the learning curve demands you give yourself some time to absorb and then take action on each step. There is so much to learn that I can’t really put it all in this article.

Leadership and Teaching Self Confidence To Children

Leadership and Raising Self Confident Children by Caryn Elizabeth on Mixcloud

Self confidence is a leadership quality

Are you a leader/follower Or are you a leader/leader?

A child’s self confidence begins at home with parents as leaders. Every child will become what his parents teach him or her. If a parent is afraid of mice, it’s likely the child will be also. A confident parent will raise confident children, providing that parent is confident in honest endeavors.

Skepticism is the deadly enemy of progress and self-development. Parents who feel that the “rich” are out to take all their money, or the poor are a waste of humanity will subconsciously teach their children the same.

successful entrepreneurs life

Successful entrepreneurs have self confidence

What do we know about self confidence?

Truly, this is an age of illumination and unfoldment, but we have as yet barely scratched the surface of knowledge. However, when we shall have unlocked the gate that leads to the secret power which is stored up within us it will bring us knowledge that will make all past discoveries pale into oblivion by comparison.

This is the knowledge that becomes power to our successful life and to the lives of those we lead, be it our children, our teammates, our employees, our board, or whatever human being comes across our path.

Thought is the most highly organized form of energy known to man, and with the experiences of time, it is sure to bring us into greater understanding of that mysterious force called thought, which reposes within us. As parents, we have a responsibility to model a healthy thought life to our children.

The mind of a child which has not come into the age of general understanding, during an average period covering,say, the first two years of its life, is plastic, open, clean and free.

Any idea planted in such a mind by one in whom the child has confidence takes root and grows, so to speak, in such a manner that it never can be eradicated or wiped out, no matter how opposed to logic or reason that idea
may be.

Children Leaders Are Both Male and Female

Children leaders exhibit self confidence in business

Are your children learning self confidence from others?

Many religionists claim that they can so deeply implant the tenets of their religion in the mind of a
child that there never can be room in that mind for any other religion, either in whole or in part. The claims
are not greatly overdrawn. If our churches can do this, (and perhaps our schools as well), we as parents must oversee faith and scholarly teachings or suffer the consequences of another force outside of us leading our children in a way we would or would not want them to go.

Sad to say but some parents with lack of knowledge, fear things. This ignorance is passed to their children as truth even though what they fear may not be true. One example can be a fear of ill health. I have heard many lack confidence in their own health because they have heard their own parents say “because I got diabetes, you’ll get it too.”

poverty head in sand about direct sales

I lack self confidence when I listen to negative people

Does fear stop self confidence?

This fear (false evidence appearing real) is a lie but many take it as truth. Self confidence expresses truly taking responsibility for our health by researching for ourselves the best lifestyle for good health. This assertion is a great asset for both the parents health and the children’s future healthy life as well. While my children sometimes bauched at some of the healthy foods I made while they were young, are now reaching for the same healthy foods on the grocer shelf. For some ignorant parents, their now ill nourished children are reaching for Twinkies instead of fruit snacks.

Leadership over children and adults begins with taking responsibility over our own life and no longer listening to those who wish us ill, because they are ill. Thankfully, there is much help on the internet and in books like “The Science Of Getting Rich” available today to empower us toward lives of success as we strive toward our definite chief aim.

Our children are our first responsibility. Teaching them self confidence will come easier when they see us living an honorable self confident life. Why are you confident? Because you are living honestly, without fear and with knowledge of the things that make life good.

Healthy habits and self confidence

Raise your children well and you have set into place habits for also raising up loyal employees, team members, and any group you may desire to lead.

Self confidence begins with you. Its now or never. Be the leader/leader you are meant to be. And when you look back over your life, you will not see regrets too much to bare. You will see obstacles overcome, risks confidently taken, habits created by discipline, and love for yourself that made it all worth it.

If you like this post on self confidence, you may want to get the whole series.

How To Explain “Definite Chief Aim” To Children

What is your Definite Chief Aim? by Caryn Elizabeth on Mixcloud

 

What is a Definite Chief Aim?

Definite Chief Aim is another way of saying “our purpose”. Stephen Covey said “Think with the end in mind”, when you write down your purpose for living. Teaching our children to create a purpose statement will help them to go more directly to the success that is their birthright.

We as parents can stimulate our children to organize  and direct to a definite end the forces of his or her mind  thus harnessing the stupendous power which most people waste in spasmatic purposeless thought.

Singleness of purpose is essential for success no matter what may be ones idea of the definition of success. This calls for thought on many allied subjects as a fighter must learn many types of punches and exert himself in many forms of exercise to win the match.

The punching bag for speed and eye coordination, running for leg strength, proper food, and other forms of strength building to make him well rounded and ready to win in every battle.
arrow and target

The Battle For Achieving Your Definite Chief Aim

So do we need to stimulate our children regarding the training of their mind  that will give them the needed information to grant them success in the battle of life.

The mind needs to develop success steps by habit and repetition using a variety of thought inspiring stimuli. Hopefully as you read and study this series of leadership posts for the benefit of your children,  it  will stimulate ideas for your own leadership education.

To get an in depth study of these principles, you may want to get a copy of “Think And Grow Rich” by Napolean Hill.

In sharing these principles with your children, both parent and child need take the stand that no man knows enough about any worthwhile subject to entitle him to feel that he has the last word on that subject.

It is wise and honest that we wipe out ignorance and make way for some of the useful truths of life.

Being Teachable While Pursuing Your Definite Chief Aim

Humility is a for-runner of success. Until we become humble in our own heart, we are not apt to benefit from the thoughts and experiences of others.

Training ourselves and our children to be teachable will take us much further in life. As parents, forcing children to do things teaches them to compete for power. Rather, explaining to our children the benefits of listening  only to those who have what we want and are the kind of person we want to become, we are helping them tremendously.

The bottom line is that our children need to develop a mindset that includes the value of having a definite chief aim in life. Using the examples of our heroes, our children should write down the way they want to be remembered when they die.

While this may seem daunting to you, children have great imaginations and can come up with plenty of ways they want to be remembered. This forms their definite chief aim in life.

An Exercise To Establish Your Definite Chief Aim

Perhaps the both of you can do an exercise. Take 20 minutes and on white lined paper take a blue pen and  answer this question, “Why am I here?”.

As you keep writing reasons why you are here, you will see similarities and after a while, your sentences will become more clear and simpler. When you have written for about 20 minutes, you should have a very good sentence you can post in your journal, on notes around your home, in your car, locker, notebook or inside your bike helmet or on your mirror.

This is your definite chief aim. Any child who comes up with one and aims to reach for that purpose will have an extremely high chance of achieving that purpose.

This will help your child to be a leader over his life.

  • Peers will not shake him.
  • Obstacles will be only temporary setbacks.
  • He’ll look for friends to help him get to that end.

The shortest distance between 2 points is a straight line and a chief aim helps us get to where we are headed as if it were a magnet drawing us to it.

Help your child become the leader over his own life. Help him or her write his purpose statement and share yours with him. In humility, you will both become accountable to each other through life as you reach for that definite chief aim!
