Repositioning

Recently I picked up a book that was given to me as a huge trial was unraveling my world.  I started but never finished reading the book as life got busy & the book ended up on collecting dust on a bookshelf.  I must have known that 2 years into my Asian adventures that I would need to read it as I packed it up w/ a few belongs that I had shipped to Hong Kong.  The book is all about repositioning yourself to live an abundant life, not just a run of the mill, average life.  I'm about half way through "Reposition Yourself, Living Life Without Limits" by T. D. Jakes.  Even if life seems to be going okay, I fully believe that life without limits is achievable.  Attaining said life however requires some out of the box thinking and putting yourself out there.  And opening yourself up to the possibility that life really does have more to it than this.

All this being said, I am learning allot from T. D. Jakes' book.  I am hopeful that the next two years will be more prosperous, blessed and full of new adventures than I can even begin to dream about right now.  I am also hopeful that the real estate, relocation and design business that I own with my husband and our partner will grow into a full time, consistent income business.  And that my Mary Kay business will also grow.

So on that note, I will leave you with this quote from the book.  "If you don't like the way your life is going, redesign it."--T. D. Jakes

Summer has more than arrived here in Hong Kong.  Yesterday my husband and I celebrated Independence Day with some fellow American's at Deep Water Bay beach.  Based on the lobster-like look that all of us are sporting today I'd say that summer is here!  Not quite the same festivities that we might have enjoyed if we were still living in the US but Thai food by the gorgeous South China Sea is a good way to spend an afternoon.

So no matter what part of the globe you call home, enjoy the trips to the beach, BBQ's and fireworks of summer!

Happy Easter!!!

Easter is always a wonderful time to celebrate!  New life, resurrection and new beginnings....are ya sensing my theme for 2012?  New!!!!  I fully believe in new beginnings, new blessings and new paths.  And I trust that the Creator of Heaven & earth has good things in store for me, and for you.  

I hope that your Easter celebration was blessed.  It was a bit cloudy and a bit cooler than I had hoped but that is okay.  The past two days of sun shine have made up for it.  

On the business side of things, a few prospects in our real estate business have given me new hope.  I am still looking to start some design projects but until then I will throw myself fully into our real estate business.  And continue to seek out the best route to grow our business in all directions.  

Blessings,

Happy weekend!

It's Friday night in Hong Kong and I'm ready to go for a busy weekend.  I have two appointments lined up for tomorrow morning and lots to catch up on with my online course that I started earlier this week.  I hope that you have a fun filled weekend planned ahead of you!

New beginnings and grand adventures...

Today starts the first week of my new adventure.  I have heard that confidence comes in your 30s...guess that it true.  I've finally taken the leap to focus full time on my own business.  Growing our company, Xpat Logistics, Ltd. will be my primary focus this year.  We handle all forms of orientation, relocation, real estate investment and interior design services to our clientele.  I will also be launching E-Design via this blog and our website soon.  So if you hear of anyone looking for a good designer, give me a buzz.  Much of the design process can be completed via emailing of photos, story boards and resource information.

So here's to new beginnings as I set off into deep waters of a grand adventure!

Year of the dragon

I can't believe that it is already half way through January.  Here in HK we are all getting ready to ring in the new year...Lunar New Year that is.  I can't tell you that I completely understand this holiday, 15 day long holiday, but I like it.  A week off from work, decorations, lion dances, food & candy abound.  And if I were single it would be a very profitable holiday.  As I am married, instead it will hit the pocketbook a little...as tradition is the hand out "red pockets" to single co-workers, family and children in your life as a blessing of new money for year to come.

I admit that there are many traditions that I miss from America but I am embracing some new ones along the way...so bring on the parades, fireworks and crazy lion dances!

Happy year of the dragon!  Or as they say here, Gong He Fat Choy!  (which loosely translates into wishing you good health & good fortune for the new year)
