Retro Chic

Image
Retro Chic isn't in unless you are in the lower east side of New York.  If you are in Charleston, SC you need to take the Retro look to the local Goodwill or the nearest Thrift Store... I'm not saying that Retro Chic is a bad thing but very few people can pull off this look. You must know your body type before you start dressing it with the newest trends or the vintage look.  I truly believe that everyone has a style but some individuals need to explore there style more especially if you fined yourself wearing Retro Chic....This would included not only your clothes but you hair styles also.  I believe imaging or branding yourselves is wonderful.  But, is it imaging or branding when you are the only one who thinks you look fashionable... So, what do you think is Retro Chic?

Friendship, Right or Wrong for You

How do you know when your friendship with someone is over? When you started to grow and the people around you started to say it doesn't take all of that to have a successful lifestyle.  This is the first sign that you don't have the right people in you circle of friends.  A true friend will always push you to get better and when you get better those same friends will be there to celebrate you and celebrate your successes.  When you tell your friends that you're living your dreams and they can see that you are living the way you have always wanted to.  And, those friends tell you that they think you should slow down and be careful because you could lose everything you have worked so very hard for then those are friends you need to weed out of your life. Sometimes, people want you to stay in one space because they don't want to see the dreams and goals in their own lives that they haven't accomplished.   These are something you need to look for when you are getting

How do you know if you married the right person? cont.

I'm not saying that you couldn't fall in love with someone else. You could. And TEMPORARILY you'd feel better. But you'd be in the same situation a few years later. Because, THE KEY TO SUCCEEDING IN MARRIAGE IS NOT FINDING THE RIGHT PERSON; IT'S LEARNING TO LOVE THE PERSON YOU FOUND. SUSTAINING love is not a passive or spontaneous experience. It'll NEVER just happen to you. You can't "find" LASTING love. You have to "make" it day in and day out. That's why we have the expression "the labor of love." Because it takes time, effort, and energy. And most importantly, it takes WISDOM. You have to know WHAT TO DO TO make your marriage work. Just as there are physical laws of the universe (such as gravity), there are also laws for relationships. Just as the right diet and exercise program makes you physically stronger, certain habits in your relationship Will make your marriage stronger. It's a direct cause and effect. If you

How do you know if you married the right person?

EVERY relationship has a cycle. In the beginning, you fe ll in love with your spouse. You anticipated their call, wanted their touch, and liked their idiosyncrasies.   Falling in love with your spouse wasn't hard. In  fact, it was a completely spontaneous experience. You didn't have to DO anything. That's why it's called "falling" in love - because it's happening TO YOU.  People in love sometimes say, "I was swept off my  feet." Think about the imagery of that expression. It implies that you were just standing there; doing nothing, and then something came along and happened TO YOU.   Falling in love is easy. It's a passive,  spontaneous experience.   But after a few years of marriage, the euphoria  of love fades. It's the natural cycle of EVERY  relationship. Slowly but surely, phone calls  become a bother (if they come at all), touch is  not always welcome (when it happens), and your spouse's idiosyncrasies, instead of being cute, 

Is YOUR Mindset Holding You Back?

Where you are in your life does not determine where you are going, it is just a reflection of your achievements or failures.  So you haven't made your first million yet, keeping pressing towards that mark.  Don't you know consistency is the key. Hang arounnd people who have achieved you are aspiring to obtain and ask them if you can intern with them.  You have to count the cost for whatever you are aspiring to be or do. You can not be lazy. If you are not willing to work your vision, please believe no one else is going do it for you.  If you are the type of person that have grand ideas and goals, but you loose focus easily, my question to you is What is your purpose?  Why do you want to do what you do?  Who is it going to benefit?  Can you do this for free and still produce a great product or service?  What is your motivator?  Time, Money, Status, Advancement of Humanity...etc... I am an event planner/designer and I love what I do.  If I never get a celebrity platform/milli
