RockStars Weekly
Incorporating teams within Rockstars. Jan 10th 2016
This week is a key time in the year to think about what you really want from your business and from your life.
Scribble some thoughts down and think about how you want your life to look in a year.
- What changes do you need to make to reach that?
- What skills do you need to improve?
- How much money will it cost? (& how much do you need to earn to make it happen)
- How much time will it take?
- Whose help will I need?
- What do I need to learn?
- Where do I need to go?
Break your goals down into a 12 month goal and a more tangible 90 day goal.
Often we adjust our 12 month goal depending on how we are doing with our 90 day goals, to keep us on the right track.
You can email me your Goals if you would like some help in making a plan stylistmichele@gmail.com - although for business goals you should also share this with your sponsor and/or upline leader.
The Importance of Goals & Why You Should Write Them Down!
"A Goal without a Plan is just a Wish"
- Goals propel you forward
- Goals transform insurmountable mountains into walkable hills
- Goals help us to believe in ourselves
- Goals hold us accountable for failures
- Goals narrow down what we truly want & what matters
- Goals enforce personal growth & development
- Goals help us live life to the fullest
Your goals become real when you write them down.
Before you actually record them they are just in your head. They are thoughts which may or may not come to fruition. They are merely wishes. Things that you would like to have or do. But the minute you write them down they become tangible objectives that you can imagine yourself possessing. The more detail you write the more realistic your goals become.

Welcome to Stella & Dot!
About Me:
I am a mum of three school age children, this is my second business in this industry, I joined S&D when we launched in the UK in 2012 when my previous jewellery company closed down, I have been in the biz for about 6 years. When I first started I had babies, toddlers and another job, and to be honest, I joined to get discount on my wishlist! however after my first party, I knew that this was what I wanted to do, so I made a plan with my sponsor and quit my job within 6 months and have never looked back. I still work part-time and do about 6 parties a month.
I live in Surrey, I'm married to the very patient Mr P and I survive on black coffee and gin.
I look forward to meeting you soon!
Michele
XOXO

Connect with your Sponsor
It's important to be honest with your sponsor about what you want from your business so that she can offer the right level of support.
During your Jumpstart period (your first 60 days) we recommend having a quick chat once a week with your sponsor.
Not on Facebook? You're missing out!
I use this Facebook page to do give-aways and share important information as it happens. it is also a useful forum for you to ask questions and share tips.
Even if you don't want to use Facebook for your personal life, you really need to use it for communication purposes within the team and wider Stella & Dot community.
Add me as a friend and I'll add you to the group: www.facebook.com/michele.porter1
Attend a Monthly Meeting (every month!)
Stylists who regularly attend a monthly meeting have much stronger businesses and are more likely to have longevity. Without connecting with other Stylists doing the same job, it's very hard to get motivated and inspired. Also, it's more fun together!
If there isn't one, then tell me!! I am working with Head Office to get the nation covered.
Making the Most of Jumpstart
Familiarise yourself with what you could be earning in this period and chat to your sponsor about it.
Read & Watch The Weekly BUZZ
