BEAUTY FROM THE INSIDE

MEDITATION
If you can’t find time to meditate for at least a half hour a day, then break it up into ”mini moments” throughout the day! You can do this while you’re waiting for your computer to come on, having a coffee break, picking up kids, running errands, and the list goes on. There’s nothing like taking “mini moments” throughout the day to get still, breathe and take in a little bliss!

Tips from Marla, Chief Inspiration Officer of eCreativebiz.com, and her business building eBook “Innovate Your Marketing with a Compelling Personal Brand”

Tip 1: Strategy

As an entrepreneur, the blending of your business brand as your personal brand is the secret to excelling in your marketing today. This allows you to be a savvy, innovative brand connecting with people worldwide and positioning you to have a global business.
In today's "Social Reward" economy, every business owner needs to think of herself as a brand; it's no longer an option, it's a necessity if you are to succeed in your marketing using Social Media today.

Tip 2: Mindset

Gratitude is a multiplier of good. The more you are in a state of gratitude for things small and large, seen or unseen, the more you effortlessly attract more good in your life. This is based on the “vibe” of your emotions. These emotions are of the highest vibrational frequency, and through the Law of Attraction they will attract even more to be thankful for.

We will cover these topics in more detail at the event!

Living Your Life Authentically

This week’s Beauty, Bling and Branding “Free Lifestyle and Business Tips”

From Laura Weintraub, Founder and Creative Director of Classy & Chic Makeup Boutiqueand her upcoming "Beauty Tips and Tricks from the Inside Out" eBook!

BEAUTY FROM THE INSIDE

HYDRATE, HYDRATE, HYDRATE
Did you know how to figure out how much water you should drink a day.  Take your body weight and divide it by 2 then divide that by 8oz and that’s how much water you should be drinking.  For example if your body weight is 130 divided by 2 equals 65 divided by 8oz of water equals 8 glasses of water per day.

BEAUTY IS IN THE MIND OF THE BEHOLDER!
This applies no only to what you see but what you think.  If you’re catch yourself thinking negative thoughts, simple ask those thoughts “how are you here to serve me”?  99.9% of the time they’re not there to serve you at all so simply shift to a thought that does! Place close attention to how your body feels when you shift your thoughts!


TO BEAUTY ON THE OUTSIDE

STRIP LASHES
Remember that strip lashes will cause a cast shadow against the lid so go easy on your shading color.  You can always apply more shadow after your lashes are on to enhance the look.

PERFECT LIP PENCIL
Dip your lip pencil into some lip conditioner first then draw your lines.  This helps the lip pencil glide smoothly and evenly over the lips for perfect lines every time.

Here’s YOUR Free Tips (share with your other entrepreneurial women friends):

From Laura Weintraub, Founder and Artistic Director of Classy & Chic Makeup Boutique and her upcoming "Beauty Tips and Tricks from the Inside Out" eBook!

BEAUTY ON THE INSIDE
Inspire Yourself
Start each day by taking 10 minutes to inspire yourself with a quick read from one of your books by a spiritual teacher or mentor. I love to grab a book and ask myself "what do I need to know today"!  I fan the pages over and over until they start to stick together and then when it feels right, I land on a page and read it.  This is based on the "law of attraction" and 99.9% of the time, it's exactly what I need to know in that moment!

BEAUTY ON THE OUTSIDE
Get That Eyeshadow To Stay All Day
Before applying eyeshadow use a waterproof primer then apply your shadow.  My favorite is Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer from Sephora.  It's not only water resistant, it's creaseproof too!
~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~ ~ ~

From Marla, Personal Branding and Social Media Expert/Strategist of eCreativebiz.com, and her “5 Truths About Social Media Marketing.”

1. Social Media is first and foremost about building quality relationships in a community format, while delivering your personal brand (storytelling) via your profile not just a fan page. Watch your mindset and intention as you post. Gratitude, appreciation, kindness, giving, and serving are all energetically responsible intentions. Success on this platform is building the KNOW, LIKE, & TRUST factor first to prospective and existing community members, selling/promoting second. Social Media is the NEW PR.

2. I liken Social Media to a game of golf. You are having a good time socializing in a casual, enjoyable environment as you play a mindful game that is enhanced by the quality discussions and interactions with your golf partners. With that, you build the KNOW LIKE TRUST and deals go down on the golf course; as they do on Facebook and Twitter. New clients and customers will show up as a result of your consistent postings (and that’s not hard or time consuming when I teach it!) and peer-to-peer marketing.

We will cover these topics in more detail at the event! Join us for an evening designed for the professional woman who seeks a quality look and brand for her professional image and how to strategically market it on Social Media networks!

Embrace Your Own Spotlight Before You Connect to Others

In a recent conversation with my 21 yr old son, we explored how challenging it is to be more authentic in front of hundreds with his new motivational speaking career working for Tony Robbins.  

We talked about how learning to be emotionally intimate with yourself in a loving way precedes how well we can connect with others while on that speaking stage. It's so different from one-on-one. When you are in the SPOTLIGHT, something starts to happen. 

As Taylor develops into a public persona speaking to businesses nationwide inspiring employees and their bosses to invest in themselves via Tony's "Unleash the Power Within" 4-day training, he also realized he must "walk the talk" in his own life. He understands if he's encouraging others to live a life of fulfillment in all areas, he knows his message must be authentic and transparent. In other words, he better live what he preaches!  

I so relate with the where he is. I had to learn over the last five years how to be more compassionate and loving with myself before I could be that to others while in the spotlight. Not easy, but very rewarding knowing you are inspiring others to transform their lives.  

This has everything to do with how compelling your personal brand can be.

The more I emotionally evolved, the more results occurred in my business including the money I created. In a sense, I cleared my energy field and raised my “vibration.” Money is an energy first; not a concept or a tangible. Money flows from our own energy consciousness. Acronym for money,  "My Own Natural Energy Yield."

I share this scenario about Taylor because this is exactly what happens when you EMBRACE own your personal brand. Start within before the outer manifests. Before you can really excel at placing the SPOTLIGHT on you and your expertise, we all must learn to be emotionally intimate with ourselves in a loving way before we can connect with others in a meaningful way.

The blending of your business brand as your personal brand IS the secret to excelling in your marketing today. Emotional content ranks high on Google for your SEO, too!

3 tips for you to begin embracing your own brand that allows you to deliver YOU with confidence, savvy & ease:

1.  You know those annoying tolerations you put up with every day? The small ones to the large things that drain your energy every time you see one? It can be a rug in your bathroom needing to be replaced, to the bike that needs a new tire, to the files on your desk needing to be filed or thrown out, to the drawer that needs to be cleaned out and the debts that have you stressed out. You get the picture. Make a top 10 list and begin clearing this energy in your life. Seriously, even clearing the smallest tolerations create big results for your life. Try it for 3 months. See what happens.

2. Invest in personal development with a mentor, coach, or via a book, live seminar or audio. I highly recommend "Coach Yourself to Success” by Talane Miedaner or any Tony Robbins training starting with Unleash the Power Within (the one Oprah featured on her OWN show in Feb - my son and I shared that training with her). (Email me and I’ll connect you with Taylor for registration).

3. Develop a robust relationship with your higher power if you have not already. This means communicating with it as if it’s your best friend (because it is).  Quiet time alone. Then journal about what comes up. 

To your branding success. :)
