Screen shot 2010-03-27 at 1.35.47 PMAre you living your life the way you really want?

I’m generally weary of life “coaches” who promise to transform your life in a few hundred pages or an afternoon. This kind of stuff takes work, so I approached Michael Neill’s book Supercoach: 10 Secrets to Transform Anyone’s Life with the same skepticism.

However, I found this to be a highly useful reference book to read and reread.

If you’re feeling a little lost or stuck in terms of what direction to take or where you want to go with your business, this book is a great stepping stone.

Neill will help:

  • Suck the negativity out of your thoughts and show you how to create positive energy in your life.
  • Figure out what you want to create.
  • Suggest ways in which you can make good decisions.
  • Show you how to create systems to better manage your time.
  • Teach you how to ask for something you really want or need.

Whether you think you need it or not, this book is a nice read that will help you get more out of business and life. I found useful tips for various aspects of my own life in nearly every chapter.

Now that you have these Supercoach tools, get started! Transforming your own life takes lots of work and it’s completely up to you…

This Crazy Delicious ‘Gimme More’ Minestrone Soup is fit for a Goddess and thinfully delicious.

The idea? Be creative and use what you have in your kitchen for dinner.

I looked through my fridge and realized I had nearly all the fixings for a creative minestrone soup (i.e. minestrone soup… my way). I threw this soup together, chopping included, in under 30 minutes. Delicious & nutritious food doesn’t have to take a long time and you don’t need to make that extra trip to the grocery store for missing ingredients. Learn to work with what you have!

When you do go grocery shopping… remember this: VEGGIES, VEGGIES, VEGGIES! Your body will thank you.

Hopefully this video will help inspire you in the kitchen:
