Stay Strong Stay Confident

Have you read, "The Secret"? If not, the gist is to always keep a positive mind and positive things will happen. Well, that is quite basic, but it is the truth. Negativity shuts people down, closes people off. You know that little voice inside of you? It can be shut off! I write this not only as a reminder to everyone, but also a reminder to myself. With changing times, in order to keep things afloat, sometimes we have to work really hard to find those positives in our life. SO, some things I do are to take a deep breath and look around. Take some perspective is what I tell myself. Some days are easily bogged down with the nitty gritty. SO I try to smile and look for the sunshine it it all. Please join me to do the same.

Going to San Diego

I can not possibly contain myself! I am off to San Diego in one week! Each year, Stroller Strides holds a National Conference. Franchisees and Instructors come from all over the country to meet and greet fellow Stroller Striders. It is an amazing way for us to get rejuvinated. We come back with new techniques and fresh ideas for teaching classes and running the business. The hardest part will be leaving my 4 year old and 4 month old. I am already dreading how much I will miss them, but it's just a small sacrifice I will make. I can't wait to post about all I learned when I return.
