Happy Tuesday!
I’d LOVE to have you join my new Facebook page Robyn Beazley :: Living an Amazing Life - where I share my thoughts, quotes I love, and interesting articles and videos I come across.
If you enjoy it – I hope you’ll suggest your friends “like” my new page also!
Live Inspired,
done! In 6 days – a conference I’ve been coordinating for just over 3 months, will be complete. WOOHOO! Did you hear me scream?? If not – I’ll yell it again – YAHOOO!
This journey has been interesting! Last week, I made my Facebook status read:
“Having an unbelievably productive 1st day of March! Excited for a conference I’ve been planning in the nooks & crannies of my day (for 3 months) to happen (& be done!!) in 12 short days. No more “side” contracts for me for awhile ;)”
In November 2009 – I saw a posting for an Events Coordinator contract – to work with a committee to put on their annual Conference. I didn’t “need” anything else to do, however I love Event Planning/Coordinating - so I saw this contract – as a fix for my passion.
I bit off WAY more than I ever imagined! My experience with the Calgary Stampede and personal endeavors, has taught me that every committee has different expectations and needs. I underestimated the amount of time this contract would require. SO – life has been a bit out of balance – specifically the past 2 months – but I’ve embraced the challenge and personally grown more than words can describe.
I created a website for the committee - if you want a sneak peek at the ECE Conference (www.ececonference.ca), I’m helping coordinate.
Aside from this “side” event coordinating contract – that was supposed to be a few hours a week. I finished the full time management contract I was doing – that I talked about in the post “New Contract” AND started another fantastic contract at the Lethbridge College, that goes until June 30th.
Luckily – my schedule in the evenings and weekends can be flexible – since John is gone lots and we don’t have kids, that I need to spend time with.
Two months ago, I made my Facebook status read:
“excited for the new week – so many amazing things to work on! Keeping my feet moving – I don’t want to be doing the same thing 5 years from now ;) Creating options and multiple streams of income with my hubby.”
I had so many people ask about this status update and want to know what it “meant”. Simply, it relates to our (Team Beazley’s) quest to constantly be investing our time, energy, and money into various opportunities – instead of putting all of our eggs into one basket. After this conference ends, on Saturday, March 13 – I’m going to be sitting down, taking a hard look at what adventures I commit to, and reprioritizing my life!
Last Thursday afternoon, I had a meeting with my main contact for the Conference – she brought me a gift:
These napkins absolutely made my day. You can bet that I’ll be enjoying a few of these after the Conference is done!
Have a phenomenal week – I know I will ;)
“Refreshed & focused! SO pumped to attack this week. I can already visualize next Sunday, after helping a committee put on a fabulously successful conference.“
Live Inspired,
Robyn
I’m often asked how I find time for everything in my wild life! Well – I believe this morning is a perfect example of the multi-tasking that goes on and how much fun I truly have living life.
The first 4 hours of this morning (Tuesday, March 2) in my world!

Woke up before my alarm at 6:17am
Remembering my last dream about the ECE Conference (I’ll have to tell you about this lovely “side” contract I took on).
Opened my eyes
Leaped from bed and got ready
Got a make shift lunch together with leftovers (I “don’t prefer” making lunches – definitely a huge pet peeve)
Notice leftover coffee sitting in pot
Grab my Arbonne bag of makeup
Walk into our garage
Turn on my car CD player to a Learn & Burn Arbonne track
Get to my office
Power Hour
Got brain wave – take 5 minute sidetrack
Another power hour
Take break for 10 minutes
Finish action step #2
Decide to throw this blog post together
Back to reality!! Lots more to attack today – the day is young ;)
Here’s to a productive, amazingly fun day.
Live Inspired,
Robyn
It blows my hair back imagining what the future has in store for us! I’ve been so blessed by the new and renewed relationships I’ve developed since email, then MySpace, Facebook, and even on Twitter.
I love how Susan Poirier from Ace Concierge, LLC explained this phenomena (I subscribe to her ezine and love the social media tips & tools she includes):
“Social media is here to stay!
Learn what it can do for you.
Learn what it WILL do for your business!”
HE Said (John): Have you ever wondered why some guys have all the luck? A beautiful woman, a great … [Read More...]
