The 10 Things Every Woman MUST HAVE to Live a Life of Abundance

In order to live a life of Abundance every woman must have a few things in her possession.

1. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE......Atleast one best girlfriend who is not afraid to call her out on her irrational behavior or when she has crossed a line. She will also be her partner in crazy making her laugh until her sides hurt and she almost pees her pants. This is the friend she tells everything to and knows beyond a shadow of a doubt her deepest fears and scariest insecurities will remain safe within her best friends hands. This friend will also remind her how FABULOUS she is when she forgets!

2. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE......A dream in her heart, so big it is overwhelming to imagine how it will every come to be. But this dream is full of her passion and deep inside she knows this is part of her destiny. As she grows so should the dream.

3. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE...... Atleast one pair of truly unpractical totally sexy COME HITHER stilettos that make her feel like her legs are 10 feet long and remind her she is drop dead sexy.

4. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE......A full length mirror where she can stand in front of it naked and embrace every bump and curve and bulge and ripple. Loving each and every imperfection because she knows that imperfections are truly beautiful. She will let go of the voices in her head telling her she isnt good enough, for there in front of her is the woman she is and she knows in her soul she is WONDERFUL!

5. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE......Atleast 3 outfits in her closet....one to SEDUCE...one to SUCCEED...and one to SLOB OUT....For every woman is more than one dimensional...she is a vixen, a competitor and has a freespirit within who just wants to do cartwheels.

6. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE......Enough money saved to rent a place of her own in case she needs to break free. A clean slate is sometimes the best thing she can do for herself.

7. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE......A journal to write out her inner dialogue and get to know the woman deep within. She must document her struggles and record her joys so that she never forgets the places she has been on her journey.

8. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE......A special place to go that gives her solace and a place to think & reflect on all the things that fill her spirit. Even if its a tub full of bubbles.

9. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE......Someone or something to love more than she thought was humanly possible. For without the ability to give the love she has inside she will never have the means to accept an even greater love in return.

10. EVERY WOMAN MUST HAVE......The ability to move forward. Life is not a permanent state of being and for every tear that is shed a belly laugh is not far off on the horizon. Sometimes getting stuck in the mud makes it hard to believe we will ever dance in fields of wildflowers. She must always keep putting one foot in front of the other no matter how hard it feels at the time!
