Dear Dotsie,

December15, 2009

"The greatest good you can do for another is not just to share your riches but to reveal to him his own."
~Benjamin Disraeli
 

Tis the season of giving. I don't know about you, but this year I'm not exchanging gifts with any friends. Money is short for many, and most of us don't need a thing. But what I hope to give this season is a way to focus on the God-given gifts of family and friends, then find a way to share their riches with them. Either by letter or plain old spoken words, I intend to lift others up by sharing what I see as their gifts to this world.

I don't know if you've ever done this. I have. The results have been mixed. But I will share that I once told a girlfriend what I thought her gifts were, and she was blown away, denied them, and could hardly believe her ears, repeatedly saying, "Really?" I took tremendous pleasure in doing so because I would bet dollars to sugar cookies that she still remembers what I said. Pleasant words spoken gently may be the best gifts given this season.

As many of you know, I spend some of my free time visiting my FIL in an Alzheimer's care facility, and Dad in his home where he's fortunate to remain at this stage in his life. I continue to find this stage in life fascinating because it forces me to consider what my life might be like when I'm in my 80s, if I live that long. This is one of the pieces that makes me live life to the fullest because I don't know what lies ahead. Because eldercare is a big part of my life, and possibly yours, I want to share what my friend, Barbara Friesner has to offer.

Did you know that more than 1/3 of eldercare givers had long term health problems because of eldercare giving? In fact, researchers have found that there is a 63% increase in mortality over 4 years, compared with non-caregivers. And the numbers are worse when there is also financial strain.

Did you know that almost all respondents reported that they paid one or more expenses in order to help the care recipient. (Food, transportation, and medications were their three most common expenses. And these are just miscellaneous costs - not including loss of pay, pension, social security, etc.)

Statistics like these break my heart.  That's why I'm so delighted that Barbara Friesner, NABBW's Eldercare Expert is putting The Ultimate Caregiver's Success System on sale for $100 off the regular price - just in time for the holidays.  

The Ultimate Caregiver's Success System is an amazingly comprehensive and information-rich resource that is guaranteed to address your most difficult questions, roadblocks, and communication breakdowns that are so typical for eldercare givers.

If you're a caregiver or care about someone who is, please don't wait. Give yourself or someone you love the gift of love and order "The Ultimate Caregiver's Success System" at this special sale price and get the help you need today.

We are gearing up for our FREE 30-Day E-Course in January.

30 Days To A New You:
Get What You Want Through Authentic Change:

Have you wanted to make certain life changes, but just haven't had the oomph to do so? If so, let the NABBW and Monica Magnetti, BFA/CPCC, author of 30 Days To A New You: Get What You Want Through Authentic Change be the help you've been waiting for. Join this essential self-development 30 day e-course, led by life/business/wellness coach Monica Magnetti.

This e-course is based on her book 30 Days to a New You: Get What You Want Through Authentic Change, as she gives step-by-step proven, breakthrough processes that will transform you into the woman who gets what she wants. Beginning Monday, January 11th, 2010 there is a 30-day program which comes to your email box daily. This is our FREE gift to members of the NABBW only. If you have friends who also want to make life changes, tell them to join us now so they can get in on this excellent opportunity. Here's a quote from Monica about living a life of happiness:

If there is only one thing you take away from this "experience," let it be this: you are the sole and exclusive creator of your own happiness. To expect something or someone outside yourself to bring you happiness is completely unrealistic, and it relinquishes your power.

The sooner you surrender to this simple yet profound fact, the sooner you will tap your own resources when life goes sideways. Being happy does not mean you'll no longer experience unexpected turns; it means you'll be able to dance with adversity, no matter which way life turns.

When we are happy, there is flow and synchronicity in our life. Happiness is the way, not the destination.

with
Monica Magnetti

www.lunacoaching.com
Author of 30 Days to a New You
Beginning ...
Monday,January 11, 2010


Join this essential self-development E-Course being offered in January, 2010, led by life/business/wellness coach, Monica Magnetti. This e-course is based on her book, 30 DAYS TO A NEW YOU:  Get What You Want Through Authentic Change, as she gives step-by-step proven, breakthrough processes that will transform you into the woman who gets what she wants. During this E-course, you'll learn:
  • To open up your perspective of goal achieving to a vision that includes you, your journey, and your goals.
  • To define your heart's desire first, who you are when you are happy, and to then itemize goals and their steps that will sustain that.
  • To discern and subdue your limiting thoughts, words, and actions so that you can live a life of intention and choice. 
  • That when you are happy, you reach your goals much more easily.
Imagine living to the fullest along the entire journey of your life rather than waiting until you've attained all your goals. As Monica says, "Living for your goals is only icing; living for your heart's desire is the cake."

Got questions you'd like to have answered on the call? Email Dotsie Bregel at dots@nabbw.com prior to the teleseminar.
