# Create Momentum

      

        Many of our goals and desires differ from one another, whether a person is trying to master a sport, learn a business, or loose weight one thing that is essential for all is MOVEMENT. If a person has a strong desire to fulfill theirs goals then they must create momentum in their lives. One great way to create momentum is through performance and consistency. By creating momentum through performance and consistency it will allow you to stay involved and relevant to your goals. By just staying proactive and involved  you will be in momentum. You can educate yourself about anything at anytime but only your commitment to it will help you achieve it.  If something is not working for you then you must determine your own limits of staying in or getting out, but regardless movement is needed to get to the next possibility.  In addition, if your not sure where to begin with your goals then start by knocking on a bunch of different doors and see which ones open for you. You have the ability to create the best version of you.

My three simple rules to create momentum: 1. Take Action 2. Stay involved 3. Be consistent

You have to be in it, to win it!

Connect w/ your Cleanser!

     
        It is unanimous that it is important to use a good facial cleanser for your skin because it protects the skin from dirt, dead cells, and free radicals. In addition, by using the right cleanser your skin will appear more healthy, radiant, and fresh. However, by using the wrong cleanser it can make your skin dry, dull, and irritated. So how do you choose the right cleanser for you?  It can be overwhelming to choose the right product for your skin with so many skin products being on the market, so here are a few tips that will lead you in the right direction:

1. Identify Your Skin Type
It is very important for you to know what type of skin you have so you can determine what it needs.
Skin Chart:
Normal = proper ph balance, moisture, and oil            
Oily= shiny or quickly oily                                           
Dry= flaky and dull
Combination= oily, dry, little ph balance
Acne= hormonal, bacterial
Sensitive= hypoallergenic, easily irritated

2. Connect with your Cleanser
By knowing your skin type it will help you narrow your choices by excluding what products you don't need. For example, if you have dry skin then you want to stay away from alcohol based products and for sensitive skin you would want to avoid chemical and fragrance products.

-Read ingredients
-Research Products
-Ask questions

3. Stay as "Natural" As possible
I personally like to use natural based products with the least amount of chemicals and alcohol. Products containing a lot of chemicals and alcohol can actually cause long term damage for the skin by damaging layers of the skin. Know what you are applying on your skin.


4. Monitor Your Skin
Keep in track of your skin and monitor its results. See if you can notice a difference in your skin and if your skin likes what your using on it. Like a relationship, you'll know if it is a keeper or if its time to move on!

ANTICIPATION

      To "anticipate" means to think, speak, act, or feel an emotional response in advance of a situation's time. I think many of us get caught up in anticipating a situation because the emotion brings up feelings of curiosity, anxiousness, and impatience. It is difficult to remain sturdy especially when you are anticipating the outcome of a situation, but the important thing to remember is that the outcome is going to be exactly what its going to be and it is not worth wasting energy on something that can not be determined until its actual time. Life is a journey and the mystery that comes along with it is actually what makes the journey possible. We never know the outcome of a situation until we are in that exact moment so therefore it is best to stay away from the " what ifs, why, hows" and just relax and let the Universe unfold whatever it has in store for you. The interesting thing is that even when something ends it is the beginning of something new!


Live in the moment and be open to ALL possibilities!
