Mary Crowley No Fear in the New Year By Jon Gordon On Saturday I saw the movie The Secret Life of Walter Mitty and absolutely loved it. While driving home it occurred to me that we are all Walter Mitty. We all have dreams and visions but to life a meaningful and rewarding life we have to step out in faith and take the leap. Each year I share this article and I hope it s a reminder for you to take the leap this year. Thirteen years ago I looked out into the Atlantic Ocean on New Year s Day with fear in my heart and uncertainty in my life. I had been fired from a dot.com company two weeks earlier with only two weeks of severance, no insurance for my two young children and only two months of savings in the bank. My wife and I had just invested every dollar we had and even took out a second mortgage on our home and $20,000 on a credit card to open what would be the first Moe s Southwest Grill in Florida. The restaurant was set to open January 13th and we had no earthly idea how we would pay our home mortgage and other bills since I planned on keeping my salary and job while my managers built the restaurant business. Now, it was New Years Day and I had no job, no salary and a restaurant opening that at worst would fail miserably or at best take a year to be profitable. I thought of all this as I prepared to jump into the icy cold water-to take a symbolic plunge that this would be the year of NO FEAR. Regardless of the circumstances I was facing, this would be the year where I would trust and go for it. This would be the year I would be bold in actions and faith and humble in spirit. No longer could I do it alone. Now I needed a miracle and I decided to act as if my future depended on me and pray like it depended on God. By jumping into the ocean I was declaring that no longer will I allow fear to cut off the flow of abundant and positive energy in my life. No longer will I allow fear to paralyze me. Instead of fear I would trust. Now, thirteen years later, as I write this I am preparing to jump into the ocean once again on New Year s Day. It has become my yearly ritual to remind myself to follow my passion, live life to the fullest, surrender and to stay one step ahead of the fear that hovers around me. And as I take my leap into the ocean I want to invite you to jump in with me. Perhaps not in the ocean but in the depths of your mind. This jump doesn t necessarily require water but rather a leap of faith in your belief system and a shift in your mindset. The antidote to fear is trust and it is only a thought away. No one is going to push you over the chasm of struggle to the life that you want. God will nudge you but you must take the leap. You must make this jump in your mind and then with your actions. You must make this jump with trust, determination and faith. After all, they don t call it a leap of fear. They call it a leap of faith for a reason. You will always feel fear. Everyone will. But your trust must be bigger than your fear. The bigger your trust the smaller your fear becomes. And the more you trust the more you become a conduit for miracles. I know. A consulting project presented itself out the blue and we were able to pay our mortgage. A check came in the mail, the right opportunities came our way and somehow, some way my family and I were carried. A year after the restaurant opened I started this newsletter which eventually lead to me writing books, speaking and doing the work I do now. Maybe 2013 wasn t a great year for you but I believe New Year s Day represents a fresh start and presents a new opportunity to create the life and career you want. All you have to do is jump in with all that you are and all that you wish to become. We Appreciate YOU! Randy & Elizabeth

2 This is a booking activity using the boxes of "Sweetheart" candy. Hand one to each guest when they arrive and tell them they are a "Sweetheart" for coming to the show. Let them hold it, (with no explanation) until after you share the fashion ideas, show a lot of jewelry and are ready for the booking activity. Say, "if you know right now you want me to come to your house and put my jewelry on your table, or to your work place for a show, hold up your box of candy. (wait a minute and let them think about it, and then say,' you'll be glad you did') SAY - You are really a "Sweetheart" for booking a show, and you will call me a "Sweetheart" when you receive all that free jewelry at your very own jewelry show..." :-) Then ask them to look on the bottom of their box. If it has a sticker on it, they win a prize that night, but the real prize is the FREE jewelry they receive at their show. Make sure there are at least two-three boxes with stickers on them when you pass them out. Use the stickers on boxes according to the number of guests. Your prize may be a tennis bracelet, or any of the small incentive items from Premier Incentives. Often, ladies will decide at check out to book. If they have a sticker, give a prize then. If they like the gift they saw someone else receive and their box did NOT have a sticker, let them know they can have a prize too! Ask to share some information with them about how our business works when you bring their packet for their show, and you will bring a prize to them as well. Have Fun!!!

8 The Right Valentine Gift Mr. Right was in a pickle, For his Mrs. Right was fickle, And he was left not knowing the right gift to buy. He went right to the store Thinking he d find the right gift for sure, But when he left nothing had caught his eye. He left the candle isle, for they were not right, And he braved the perfume isle with all his might. Then at last he left in his car with a sigh. He thought, Mrs. Right deserved more As he turned right out of the store Then an idea popped right into his mind! He remembered a Premier catalog left on the counter. But how will I choose the right GIFT without her? He thought as he pondered the right jewelry to buy. He wondered, Maybe a ring for her left or right hand, Or maybe a bracelet to wear right by her watch band. He thought choosing the right jewelry is hard for a guy! As he flipped through the pages, it was right there The wish list Mrs. Right had so carefully prepared! That piece of paper she left was a beautiful sight! He decided on the right piece of jewelry to order. Then called the jeweler and left a message on her recorder. She delivered it right to him wrapped in red and so bright! Almost the whole day had passed, But Mr. Right was done shopping at last, And he knew he had the right valentine gift that night. ~Paula Phillips
