the details... of "2010" & the I Do's...of "2011" LET THE COUNTDOWN BEGIN!


This Year we're going back to the BASICS
for Bringing in the New Year
Can you believe the year is almost over? It seems that the older I get the turning of the clock comes faster, Is it just me who thinks that? So many wonderful things happen this year that I'm pleasantly pleased with, however I did learn a few life lessons along the way.  The most important part is when you encounter circumstances that may not go as plan do you buckle under the pressure or do you pick your head-up and move forward even better & stronger?  I take a hard look at the situation & re-evaluate the steps that brought me there. Did I see signs along the way & completely ignore my navigation?  The New Year is about making changes re-evaluating absolutely everything in your life and making a new. If something isn't working then take steps to change it so you'll live a more fulfilling life.

I thought I was done with  my personal goals for "2011", but just added one additional item to the list. If you have written down resolutions for "2011" & come January 20th something else comes-up; add it to your list-Do not ignore. You may not complete everything, but visit your life actions daily, so the more you dedicate time & effort to the better results you'll have. It's all a process & as long as you are working towards the process eventually you'll see "RESULTS".

I  try to always  provide positive words of wisdom to my friends, clients & associates which we call drezrehersal Tips... I am a person who believes in saying it like it is and not sugar coating it. One thing my friends appreciate from me & know if they want it real ASK KIMBERLY.  Why would you even want someone to tell you what you want to hear verses what is the right thing you should  hear? It's key to be in-tune with yourself  so you recognize certain situations along your journey in life.

drezrehersal Tip... Recognize reading people's subliminal motives and assess who is a true ally and who to avoid at all costs ;personal or business.

Time to say Goodbye to "2010" & Welcome in "2011" Looking forward to a fantastic year of fulfilling my dreams, new opportunities & new relationships all while Living, Loving & Laughing through this journey we call Life. We only have one so why not make the best of it.



Thank you for sharing this journey with us. We have many exciting details that will take place in the New Year. I'm really blessed to have a career which I call a "PARTY" that I truly LOVE with every breath that I breathe. My Theme for "2011" is: the 3P's

PASSION~PLAN~POWER

PASSION~ Stoking the fire, desire, strength
of conviction, and drive
 that sustain the discipline to achieve the vision.

PLAN~ Clearly defining a detailed outline to live my best life.

POWER~ Having Grace, Faith, Hope and
following the footsteps of GOD.
Next to life itself, the power to choose is your greatest gift.
We are self-determining through our choices.
 It's your life ~your journey
"You" decide to have the freedom to choose.

GLAM'ONDAY ALERT... CASTING~TAKING YOUR POWER BACK!~SEQUEL



Less than a week left until its "2011"  What are you changing if anything at all? Change is good and there's no time like the present to make re-writes in your life. Why do I say re-writes? Well life is much like a movie, a true story which you are the lead cast member. Every movie has a storyline sometimes its a feel good , action, love story, drama & even a thriller. First step to a movie is the writer. There must be a writer to get the storyline going. Once the script is complete you need to pitch it to the studios, then start the casting process that also includes who the director & producer will be. Does any of this sound familiar yet? Let no one write your movie but you, it's your life & your journey. Should you decide you want a feel good movie with a love story ending or do you prefer lots of drama that can ultimately be a thriller in the end? Create a vision board & set goals for where you like your life to be. Start small & do 2-3 yrs out and once you get the hang of it re-write do long term 5-7 yrs. If you can see it daily you'll be able to envision the storyline even more.




Who's the Director of Your Life?
Recently I watched the WIZ for the umpteenth time. One of my childhood favorite movies, which brings back feel good feelings, since my Nana took me to see it when I was about 10 or 11 yrs old. The first time seeing it I didn't quite understand it completely, but loved the music & storyline & hearing Diane Ross singing When I Think of Home. I get chills every time I hear that song very powerful. If you really listen to the words it says a lot. The older I got the more & more that song meant to me. That you could achieve & be anything in life if only you Believe. The WIZ is a perfect movie if you are trying to Take Your Power Back. Cast: Dorothy-Wanted to get Back Home ;Scarecrow- Wanted a Brain; Tin Man- Wanted a Heart; The Lion- Wanted Courage. Long story short in the end they had everything they needed all along, but just took sometime to BELIEVE.

So let's review: The Writer: (You) Producer: (You setting goals)  Director: Following God's footsteps & not mans footsteps and Cast: Surrounding yourself with like minded individuals who are on the same path as you. There's an old saying my mother use to tell me. You are the company you keep. If you want better you must allow yourself to be better. It's OK if something isn't working, just know when its time to move on & end the sequel. Create a movie of substance that you can be proud of & want to re-wind ,play all the time. Those are the movies to be cherished that you can always pull out watch over & over. Just as I do with the WIZ- I learn something new each & every time I watch it.

GLAM'ONDAY ALERT...TAKING YOUR POWER BACK!



With the New Year quickly approaching it's not only a time of celebration, but also reflection. Reflecting on what's working & what isn't working in you or around you. I had a conversation with a good friend recently on "Taking Her Power Back".  An Aha Moment shared between two friends the power you recognize in yourself, however have a momentary set back to please someone other than you. I often share with my clients, friends & associates; If you're no good to yourself, how can you be good for someone else.

GLAM'ONDAY ALERT... means more to us than just beauty & fashion. GLAM'ONDAY is about sharing, connecting with ones true self to make them a better person in life. That inner beauty that shines beyond you & brings out your best qualities, which in turn radiates to others.

I'M TAKING MY POWER BACK...




"POWER" is Glamorous-not a controlling power where one runs the opposite direction of you because they see you coming. To be a strong self-sufficient individual where you're completely in control of your life & lead by your example & not what you think others expect or want from/out of you. If you have lost yourself in some way "NOW" is the time to take your "POWER" back and let your true self shine through. You are a priceless jewel that exceeds ever definition of Glam. In order to achieve this surround yourself with like minded individuals who are on the same path as you. No, I'm not saying they need to be exactly like you, however in order to achieve Greatness you must surround yourself with Greatness. Individuals who hi-light your enthusiasm & not drain it like they are taking a vile of blood. You can totally tell when someones energy has been kidnapped. How? It shows on your face the natural radiance you desire to have with a life of peace & happiness has been kidnapped. A Fabulous Life of pure happiness is out there for you to enjoy, so grab hold of it and don't look back.

drezrehersal Tip...There's no better time then "TODAY" to make CHANGES for "2011". If you face it head on "NOW" you're likely NOT to crash & burn later.

On Taking Your Power Back!

2.  Your Best Life Now-7 Steps to Living at Your Full Potential

GLAM'ONDAY ALERT... BEAUTY, FASHION (MAYBE) CHARACTER (YES)

Being GLAM isn't just about Beauty & Fashion...Having a good character compliments the inner essence of being GLAM. What's inside is much more important than what's on the surface. Be your true authentic self  & you'll never need to cover-up with material things of the world.
Make-Up & Fashion are just accessories that compliment you & aren't who you are. Once you take everything off & look in the mirror, Do you recognize who is looking back at you?

BITTER to BETTER PART II


In the Process of Finding & Loosing
Love~ You Found You...

A Mini Love Story on Finding & Loosing Love
Read BITTER to BETTER PART I

You arrived & showed up ready to go with your sweet nothings & overzealous ways to impress & court me 100%. The journey of us wanting to know one another more is amazingly blissful, my heart can barely contain the steady beats, but my head is saying GIRL please this isn't a fairy tale this is reality & you better get real & recognize the storm is coming. You take a moment & evaluate the situation as if its a business plan, but should be more like a partnership out-weighing the pros & cons. Before you know it a revelation has presented itself! This could be the best relationship you have ever encountered, just what LOVE should be. You start to understand the only storm that is coming is your past meets present. You're bringing past hurts into your present & turning something GREAT into "BITTERNESS"  from the past. Just because you were disappointed in the past doesn't mean its your present.

One thing women need to learn is how to release past hurts. What you're holding on too as luggage can jeopardize your future. Life is about many lessons- you either get it or you continue to go through life with a knife in your heart that you just can't seem to pull out. So as you try & move on to the next relationship you wonder why your heart still hearts.

What needs to be the Life Lesson is God has a "BETTER" plan for you. Yes, that old saying you need to kiss a few frogs to receive your prince. It goes both both ways- its called dating for a reason. Don't get wrapped-up & all involved in the dating process & mistake he/she for Is This The One? Before you can be 100% with your future prince you must be one with yourself. Love You~Learn You~Be You before you can be a friend, girlfriend, wife to your prince. He's out there & waiting for you, however your time-line & plan is not what matters. Once God is complete with you , he will openly send you your destine mate because you are now open to receive & be a "Better" you.

Align your gifts, talents & know you deserve "Better".  It's God's priority for you to have a mate that will honor you & cherish you as the Queen you are. From this day forward step out of "Bitter" & move towards to "Better". Leave your past hurts in the past so you're able to openly receive your "Better". Relationships take work, however know when Bitter should be Better & if you aren't receiving respect than its time to pack your bags, honor yourself and move on to the present, as there's a "Better" prince in your future.

drezrehersal Tip... Act in Faith & not Fear, that its God's plan for you to recognize Better want Better because you deserve "BETTER".

Disclaimer: This story is based on a one-on-one with a beautiful individual.

BITTER to BETTER PART I

A Mini Story of Finding
& Loosing Love






Thinking back to the beginning when the sky's opened-up & you had my heart, my mind all wrapped-up in you. The days when everything was effortless, but the anticipation of getting to know you more was magical. Magical that we both wanted the same thing to know more than what was on the surface. Too know ones dreams, aspirations & desires for life. You listen mesmerized to the every breath that I breathe without interruption. Just wanting to know me on a deeper level. Taking it way back to courting, chivalry the way our parents did it. Could this be a dream? Let me pinch myself too good to be true you say? Our conversations would be for hours on end; closing down the restaurants to look-up & be the only patrons still there. The people, good food, great ambiance didn't matter. The most important thing at that very moment I was with you & you with me & we were learning something new about one another every chance we got. Even when we weren't together you made sure I was thought of if only for a moment & vice verse. Yes, we were courting & it felt so good. I had no problem showing you just how much I was feeling you. Romantic dinners even after a long day of work, taking walks through the canyons & discovering new sites not only with the universe, but in each other. As we said our evening good byes we hug for long intense moments like we would never see each other again. Finally to let go after what seemed like 15 mins. to walk away & continue turning back often a wink or to blow a kiss. The essence of falling in "LOVE" is hitting us both like a mack truck. The words go Un-spoken, but we both know we want more of what we our now calling a committed relationship.


Now is the pressure on? Will things change now that we are definitely an item? I'm yours-you're mine, however not so much as property. We have total respect for each another & the connection is mutual. You continue to tell me there's so much I want to share with you, do with you bring you into my world 100%. I want to court you & treat you as the queen you are. You questioned once again could this be true? Is this real? Just waiting for that thunder storm to come in. The skies have been sunny for way too long the thunder storm is coming you tell yourself. But until then your rain protection is on & internally you continue to enjoy the ride. You look forward to the good morning calls-he saying babe have a beautiful day & some added extras of sweetness, followed by a text saying "TOU" code for Thinking of You, along with weekly deliveries of something that only he knew was special to you. The connection, the communication, the substance you're receiving was oh so tender & sweet.

Months-Months go by you both have put in time with the relationship. What's the Catch? You're still waiting on the thunder storm this is too good to be true. Now he's discussing a future with you, he tells you he's even more motivated to expand his business because of you. You bring inspiration to him, however this causes him to put in more time. It sounds good in the beginning but slowly the quality time is taken away from you, the communication is still there. You see he's trying to juggle it all, but you start to give him grief. What use to be several days a week of quality time has turned into 1 maybe 2. You're not happy with it at all & make it know. You start to turn something GREAT into BITTER & sabotage the relationship. Internally you always felt it was just too magical & maybe you didn't deserve a man like this. Could it have been the perfect scenario to hurt him before he hurt you?

Stay Tuned for Part II Bitter to Better. A Mini Story of Finding & Loosing Love. Have you ever thought you meet Mr. Right, but the timing was all wrong? Please share by replying with a comment to this post.

RELAX~RELATE~RELEASE... 3R's to get you through the "HOLIDAYS"



Tis the Season to Be "STRESS FREE"- Just around the beginning of November ones stress level usually peaks. Yes...The Holidays Are Coming, The Holidays Are Coming! You don't need to let the anxiety of others expectations elevate your stress level. The Holidays are more than about shopping, giving, & receiving expensive gifts that you'll be paying for well into the New Year. Let me help you enjoy two holidays when people simply loose their minds-Thanksgiving & Christmas. I'll share 3R's with you to help ease the pain most of us encounter during this time of year & the true meaning behind both.

"RELAX"
Definition: To make less severe or stern; to loosen or ease-up
Suggestion: Surround yourself with people who have your best interest at heart; non-judgmental, positive reinforcement. Be your authentic self. Once you allow yourself to loosen up you'll be able to enjoy the true meaning of the Holiday Season. Should you feel yourself reaching your peak point: Take a deep breath/hold it & internally tell yourself I will not let others put a value on my happiness. When finish Relax and Release the air into the universe.


"RELATE"
Definition: To tell; to establish relation between; to refer connected by blood or marriage; Dealing between persons or nations. Kindred connection by consanguinity or affinity.
Suggestion: Holidays are meant to be spent with Family & Friends. Sharing a closeness with those you truly love & care for is the ultimate connection. There's nothing better than connecting, sharing the true meaning behind the Holidays~Loving Un-Selfishly without any expectations in return. Before dinner make a lasting connection & ask others to share something they are truly thankful for. Make sure everyone present shares something, you'll be surprise as to what others are thankful for. It's a Aha Moment to be grateful for the smallest pleasures of life. Your Aha Moment may connect & RELATE to someone who really needed to hear what the true meaning of the holidays are all about.

"RELEASE"
Definition: To set free; to allow to quit; to exempt from obligation
Suggestion: Release all your cares & worries to the higher power & remain at all times your authentic self. Do not step out of your normal character to please others, because you think they'll be happier or appreciate you more. Once you are able to release the expectations of others & do what makes you happy your Holidays will be more pleasant. Ask God for guidance & assistance to get you through the Holiday Season. Don't let things of the world be the decision maker for what may turn into a moment that is not in your normal character. Release only blissful thoughts & the LOVE of the pure existence of Thanksgiving & Christmas. Giving of yourself un-selfishly to others whether is feeding the homeless, volunteering your time at a Hospice or even visiting a Children's Hospital and reading a story to God most precious gift. Release the GREATNESS within you with someone who is not as fortunate to enjoy a time that should be spent with family & friends.


Bottom Line: RELAX without feeling guilty, RELATE with family & true friends, RELEASE what you feel others expect from you.

drezrehersal Tip: Allow yourself to be thankful for the smallest pleasures in life, don't sweat the details or expectations of others. The Holidays are about Living, Loving & Laughing while enjoying the blessings & gifts that you have been given. The true meaning behind the Holidays. My motto is: Live everyday like it's a FABULOUS Party! If you keep that in mind then those special times of the year won't be so stressful.

Our mission is to provide quality services to our followers, present & future clients by sharing all things relationships, weddings, events & everyday lifestyle experiences. Please share "What You're Thankful For" by replying with a comment to this post. Remember we are all here to share our experiences & you sharing a little bit of you may touch someone during this time of year.

Peace & Blessings for a Prosperous Stress Free Holiday Season~Kimberly
