Weight Loss & Senior Care- Rehash

This is a special episode, like to other.  We bring on guess speaker Lisa Ivancich.  She is a business partner of mine.  She has more than 20 years of experience in the senior care industry.  We do a deep dive and rehash the previous episode (Secret #50 Weight Loss & Senior Care).  I think my ideas are great, but it is oftentimes best to hear from other sources.

If you want to fast track your success in care for yourself or a loved one, create that vision, game plan and make living home or living situation a safe and a viable option as well as remove some of the risk in senior care, all you need to do is go to seceretsofseniorcare.com and download your FREE guide called “Safety Gadgets for Seniors.”

“Safety Gadgets for Seniors” shows how family caregivers just like you keep their senior loved ones safe and happy in their homes.

We are going to share what we call the “3 Secrets to Senior Care.” We are going to show you how to have faith & confidence in senior care, save or even make money in care of yourself or a loved one, and how to create new memories instead of relying on the past.

Secret #51- Weight Loss & Senior Care

Secret #51- Weight Loss & Senior Care

At the beginning of the year, I shared with you my goals for the year. I shared with you a personal goal as well as a business goal. My personal goal is the most common goal for New Years Resolutions, to lose weight, more specifically body fat percentage. We are just past the end of 1st quarter of the year and I wanted to share with you on an update on that goal as well as something I have learned along the way.

There are questions I have to ask myself when it comes to the goal and why am I following short.

How do we know from day to day activities that I am losing weight and not just water weight? Once on that path to losing weight, how do I stay on it?

Who or what is holding me back from the losing the weight?

What am I doing that is holding me back from being successful at losing weight, more specifically body fat? Once I am losing the desired weight, that can I do to keep losing the weight to reach my goal?

If you want to fast track your success in care for yourself or a loved one, create that vision, game plan and make living home or living situation a safe and a viable option as well as remove some of the risk in senior care, all you need to do is go to seceretsofseniorcare.com and download your FREE guide called “Safety Gadgets for Seniors.”

Secret #50- The Unspoken Journey

Secret #50- The Unspoken Journey

The struggles of the daily grind of life at work or in life can be difficult and strenuous on us physically and or mentally. I couldn’t count the times that I look back and wonder where the time went. When I am successful I get excited and what I was able to accomplish over a given time. When I fail or fall short I have felt before that I’ve wasted my time or ask myself, what could I have done different?

There are several things that I have changed and added to my personal life and business so that I end up more successful than on the failure side. To get on the trail of success there are several questions that we need to ask ourselves.

How do we know if we are on the trail of success? Once we are on the trail of success, how do we stay on it?

What can help me to stay on the trail of success? What is holding me back from the trail of success?

What can I do to stay on the trail of success? What am I doing that is holding me back from the trail of success?

The struggles of daily life at work or in life can be difficult and strenuous on us physically and or mentally. How do we know if we are heading the right direction?

Secret #49- How Martini's Relate To Senior Care

Secret #49- How Martini's Relate To Senior Care

Almost nothing brings us happiness more than having success. In business getting that big promotion or being recognized by your boss and or by your peers. In our family it could be a simple thank you by your loved one who noticed what you have accomplished around your home. A lot of success is built on previous success just like building blocks, one on top of another. I call this process, the trail of success. Once you are on the trail of success, you’ll want to stay on it. Success is the journey, not the result, that’s why it’s a trail not a destination. How do we get on the trail of success? Once we are on the trail of success, how do we stay on it? What can help me to stay on the trail of success? What is holding me back from the trail of success? What can I do to stay on the trail of success? What am I doing that is holding me back from the trail of success? In this episode we will answer these questions and much more. If you want to fast track your success in care for yourself or a loved one, create that vision, game plan and make living home or living situation a safe and a viable option as well as remove some of the risk in senior care, all you need to do is go to seceretsofseniorcare.com and download your FREE guide called “Safety Gadgets for Seniors.” “Safety Gadgets for Seniors” shows how family caregivers just like you keep their senior loved ones safe and happy in their homes.

Life is tough. Demands at work. Our relationships take a lot of work; combination of time and effort. We may feel that our strings are being pulled at all different angles. As we take care of our family, friends, business or even ourselves; others are relying upon us at all times. We may feel as if the weight of the world on our shoulders.

All we want is for the tough times to end. Spread the weight a bit onto some one else. We may just want a break to catch our breath.

What or how do I get the tough times to end? When are the tough times going to end?What am I doing wrong? What am I doing that is stopping me from getting this to end?

Secret #47- Why Motivation is Crap

Secret #47- Why Motivation is Crap

We are always trying to get an edge or advantage to what we are doing whether it be in our relationships or in business or in fitness. Anything to help us out we usually will do, especially if it is a quick fix.

We read books, blogs, talk to others, attend seminars, webinars and listen to podcasts like this for inspiration. I am a huge fan of podcasts and ebooks. It is so easy nowadays to put a podcast or ebook on while we drive or when we’re just lounging around the house. We use this as motivation to drive us or to push or encourage us that what we are doing is right or to get a task done and help us continue to move forward. We do all these things to make us feel good but more times than not they fail. We fall short. 

Why does motivation fail us so often?

Is what the person is teaching about wrong, incorrect or misinformed? 

Do we not fit the mold or the system or take in the information that we were supposed to get from that motivation? 

The motivation made me feel good, but why am I still struggling to keep the motivation?

In this episode we will answer these questions and more.

If you want to find your purpose and make living in their current home or living situation a safe and a viable option for your senior loved one and to remove some of the risk in senior care, all you need to do is go to seceretsofseniorcare.com and download your FREE guide called “Safety Gadgets for Seniors.”
