This has been a long journey of late. I have been going through a lot, all of which stems from one poor yet NEVER regrettable decision. I truly feel that the lord has been putting me through all of my trials this year because something big is about to happen. I have been putting in a lot of applications, going on a lot of interviews, and working on some personal projects. I really don't know which way I will end up but I feel like I have gotten my second wind. I have been admittedly depressed and have been going through your classic signs, lonerism, sleeping alot, self doubt, etc. but I have no doubt my pain was not in vain. I feel im about to do something big, no matter if it is on a personal scale or a more grand public scale. My one and true goal still stands, I really only have the mind to do what makes me happy. On that note I have started a DIY sewing projects blog and will soon be posting tutorials on that site and on youtube. Check it out at reconlution.blogspot.com and stay tuned for some really cool easy projects teaching you how to recycle your old clothes into new fun wears.
Thats all for now.
Thanks,
Rachel

Are you debt free?
I doubt it. Debt is everywhere, everyone has it (at least everyone I know) ... IF YOU DON'T HAVE DEBT, YOU'RE A ROCKSTAR AND I WOULD LIKE TO MEET YOU. Of course my blog today is coming from a place that is relative to me. Here it goes. I could give a shit about credit card debt. If you have more than $10,000 worth of credit card debt I care about your problems. But what I most care about is that everyone promotes college. I love my college education and I don't for one second regret going what I hate is that no one is standing up and saying that there is a huge problem with the fact that a huge percentage of college graduates leave college with more than $50,000 worth of debt. I personally know 10-30 graduates who have between $75,000 and $200,000 worth of debt. Those numbers are crazy. Where are the financial counselors and debt solutions experts specializing in student loans help. You can scour the internet and find dozens of services that will help you get out of Credit Card debt but I never see any promotions for the services that will help you get out of student loan debt. I need help. If had paid for 5 years of college on credit cards all of those services would be helpful but since I didn't they mean nothing to me. I went the same route everyone else did... the government and private lenders. !! Brainblast!! I just had an idea. Everyone knows student loan lenders are a dime a dozen. I think that to become a student loan lender you should be required to have a service that offers debt elimination information. I know they make money on all the interest you incur but ask yourself this... How much money are they making if you can't pay? hmm? exactly no money whatsoever.
Sorry for rambling. If you made it this far thanks for sticking around, I appreciate it. I hope you understood what I was blabbing about.
I am seeking for a service that will help me create a financial plan to get out of loan debt as soon as possible. If you know of one let me know.
THE END. guh >:/

Your heart repeats itself when you don't listen
I have been in the dumbest rut ever for the past month. I quit my job at the end of december. I'm not sorry I quit it because I wasn't happy there. I was a good change for me to get out of a dead end job that I knew was not going to propel me into the direction I want to in my life. I don't believe the classic conceptions of life that say you have to go to work to be happy or successful or just to live. I feel like if everyone did what their hearts told, what their passion was, we would have a happier, better world. I have decided to just try doing my thing for a while, which I have only been passively doing for the past month, I will now actively do my own thing... craft some things, use my new sewing machine, try some things from DIY videos. I choose to live with all abandon and see where it leads me because obviously that opposite is not working.
I love fashion and I love all of the wonderful things I learned in my education at multiple universities. I feel a surreal sense of accomplishment from having completed my two degrees and as much as I would love to work for a fantastically successful fashion company in the big apple and gain fantastic life and work experience I want to live on my own accord. I want to be in charge of my day to day. That is my decision. JUST GO. no looking back.. no regrets.

Research. Do lots of research
Hi. so i started off with a bang calling people like crazy Jan 5. then after a week I realized i might be going about this the wrong way. I don't want to recruit my family like they say you should and the best leads to have in the cold market are targeted ones. so i went on the prowl for free or inexpensive advertising. I found some great sites like TrafficSwarm and LinkReferral fantastic traffic exchange websites. you visit or peoples site and people visit yours. I have received hundreds of hits this way. I also turned to some opt in email marketing which i have used before with other business and gained some success with. I have started promoting on a few of the social networks i am involved with and have gotten some mild response from friends. basically i just went crazy. I believe in the next week these methods will payoff and i will be able to make my goal by JANUARY 31. Director. = $800 bonus check.
Thanks for reading, please send your prayers and belief.

So Far So Good.
Hi out there,
This week was my first real week working my Melaleuca business. I'm happy that i chose Melaleuca. I left my job and was hoping for the best. I had dreams of getting back into Fashion, which I still want to do, but I just don't know how I could mesh the two. I see myself down the line being one of those people on the videos at the launch saying I was at work one day and the next day I had the best life ever.. and now I make a million dollars a year. (If your going to dream, dream big) lol. Anyway I just wanted to let you all know how I was doing. I'll keep you updated.
Thanks for reading.
