If You Want Something, Go Get It

Money. It’s always on our mind. Regardless if we are making our desired amount or not. We always want or need more. Well, at least that’s how I think. Let me ask you a question. Are you happy with what you are currently making? Do you want more? If so, how far are you willing to go in order to make your desired income?

It’s about sacrifice and hard work. No one ever said making money would be easy. Not in the beginning at least. No one ever said that making excuses would get you far in life either. So stop giving up when you think you can’t make enough or do enough. You can make and do what ever you want to do. The sky is the limit and you are the bird. Soar through the clouds with your imagination and make whatever you want happen. Don’t tell yourself “I’ll do it tomorrow,” or the next day. Do it NOW! If you want your life to change, stop everything you are doing right now and take 2 minutes and 28 seconds to watch this motivational video that changed my mindset forever.

“You want more that you have now? Prove it. You want to be the very best there is? Get out there and earn it.” Stop wasting time because every minute that passes from the palm of your hands, you are losing that minute to change your life around and to help others change their life around. Don’t quit and don’t stop doing what you want to do. Don’t ever let anyone tell you that you can’t do it. You are capable of doing whatever you want to do. So do it, and don’t stop doing it until you make it to where you want to be.

I’m not happy with the money I’m making. I never was and wont be until I hit my desired income of $1,000,000 a year. You may call it greed, I call it motivation to succeed. At this point, today, RIGHT NOW, I’m willing to do whatever it takes to change my life around and to make that desired income. I know I can do it, but I know it wont happen overnight. Time, patience and sacrifice is all included. I know I can do it though because I have what it takes. Do you?

I decided to take my first step. I became a customer of Empower Network because of two millionaire masterminds behind the network, David Sharp and David Wood who did whatever they could do to make the amount of money they make today. Now they teach over 100,000 people a simple system on how to market and make more than six figures in just a small period of time. They motivate you with their daily audio recordings in the Inner Circle Membership and they teach you step-by-step exactly what it takes to make the money you want to make. With the chance to make 100% of commissions by selling their products, I knew that I’d be a moron if I let this opportunity slip away from my fingers.

Empower Network helps you rise to the top. They help you bring out your inner strength and strive for your desired income. Will Smith said, “If You Want Something, Go Get It.” If you want more money, go get it. Take the step I took, and become an Empower Network Customer by clicking this link right now: /almostasecret.php?id=marymillions

By clicking the link, you will learn about how this once homeless man and ex-construction worker discovered a solution that changed lives forever and continue to change more every day. Online marketing is where the money is at. Have no experience? Do not fear. David Wood and David Sharp are here!

Skin Secrets: Murad Product Review

A few days ago I shared a few of my healthy skin care secrets. I've been introduced to a product that I'm in love with, Murad Skin Care Line. I've tried so many different skin care lines over the years. This is by far my ultimate favorite. My face has been breaking out due to high stress levels I've been recently experiencing. I have a wedding coming up in two weeks and need to eliminate my acne ASAP! A friend recommended that I should try the Murad Acne Complex Kit (You can purchase it below!). The kit includes a Clarifying Cleanser, Exfoliating Acne Treatment Gel, Skin Perfecting Lotion and the Acne Spot Treatment. When I researched the product before purchasing, I was beyond amazed from customer review. I received my kit and started using the products right away. The very next day, I realized that all of my acne spots either reduced or diminished completely. I was amazed and still am. I'm on day four right now and my face is almost flawless. Pretty crazy!

So if you are looking for a magical potion to get rid of unwanted blemishes, I highly recommend you try the Murad Complex Kit and other Murad products below:

Murad Acne Complex® Kit Why you need it: Clinically proven to rapidly clear breakouts and restore smooth skin without dryness or irritation. Primary benefits: 92% of users experienced a reduction in acne breakouts in just 3 days.* Restores skin's health, clarity and appearance. *In a Murad-Sponsored clinical study

Murad Perfecting Serum® Why you need it: Smoothes fine lines and wrinkles while creating a long-lasting and refined finish. Primary benefits: Primes skin for flawless makeup application. Creates an invisible barrier to lock in moisture.

Murad Renewing Eye Cream Why you need it: This triple threat to eye area aging combats puffiness, crow's feet and dark circles. Primary benefits: Increases elasticity and firmness. Reduces wrinkles and sagging.

Murad Firm and Tone Serum Why you need it: Helps reduces the appearance of cellulite. Primary benefits: Improves the overall appearance of skin up to 80%. Restores firmer, smoother skin.

Hope you all give Murad Skin Care Line a try and share your review with me in a comment below!

The Day Of Love

Do you know what tomorrow is? The special day of love, Valentines Day. I'm excited to celebrate it with Fiance. I'm preparing a special dinner for him, but I have no idea what to make yet! Any suggestions? Now I personally adore days like Valentines, but love is strong between Fiance & I so everyday feels like a holiday. I guess tomorrow gives me an excuse to love him a little extra with good food and a bottle of Tanqueray (his fave.) Where are my single ladies at? Whoever told you that the day of love is only for relationships was smoking something, and it wasn't hookah. Call up your bestie or a few single girlfriends and have yourselves a night filled with love & happiness. Do a Valentines Pot Luck! That would be a great idea since we all LOVE food!

Comment below and let me know what you are doing for Valentines day! I appreciate & adore each and every one of you!

Breakfast At Tiffany's

I recently discovered a new favorite movie, "Breakfast At Tiffany's" and ever since the day I saw it (a week ago), Audrey Hepburn has been bumped up to #1 on my inspirational figures list. Absolutely loved her in that movie. I started doing a little more research on her after I saw "Breakfast At Tiffany's" and she is truly an angel on earth with a glamorous sense of style to top it off! In the movie she makes herself believe that she lives a semi-luxury lifestyle which motivates her to go after wealth. Now, the movie is a little older, yet her fashion was still outstanding in the film. I've created this set in thoughts of Audrey Hepburn's luxurious character "Lulamae." Have you seen "Breakfast At Tiffany's?" If so, do you love it as much as I do?

My Top 5 Secrets To Healthy Skin

"How in the heck is your skin so flawless?" The number one question I've heard since I was in high school! The question is a shock to my ears because truthfully I could always point out a blemish, pimple, unwanted scar, etc. My face isn't perfect, trust me! But I've always took very good care of it. Maybe that's what gives it a flawless appearance.

OK, so you are probably thinking "What's her secret!?" To be honest sweetie pie, it's not a secret at all. You've read these tips everywhere, over and over again. You've probably even heard it from many others. But you've never acted upon the tips below, which has left you with unwanted blemishes and/or a face filled with acne. Now it's time for you to read the common tips one more time, but this time ACT upon what I tell you and then you'll see a difference. I pinky promise! And if you don't see a difference, email me directly at Contact@BellaMariella.com... I'm willing to help you get healthy skin as soon as possible!

My Top 5 Secrets to Healthy Looking Skin:

1. Cleanse, cleanse, cleanse!! OK, so I am in love with a skin care line by the name of Dermalogica! The line is highly recommended by The Michigan College of Beauty (one of the top beauty schools in MI) when training future Estheticians. It is dermatologist approved and doesn't contain any fragrance or bad, funky stuff that will hurt your skin or body. It is a bit pricey, but so well worth it and it lasts for a long time because a pea size of each product is all you really need. I'm not saying you HAVE to use this brand for healthy skin. I love Murad Skin Care Line just as much! Use any cleanser that doesn't contain any fragrance. Something with very pure & natural ingredients.

2. Eat healthy & exercise! Believe it or not, maintaining a healthy diet is the second secret to maintaining healthy skin. You know that common saying, "You are what you eat." Well, that's 100% true! Go ahead and eat your fruits & veggies as much as you can (7 days a week!) Add a fruit to each breakfast, add a veggie to each lunch and/or dinner entree!

3. Hide from UV Rays! I cannot stress this one enough! Flaunting bronze and tan skin may look sexy, but getting it from the sun isn't. Wear sunblock when being exposed to the sun or it will damage your skin over time! I use Fake Bake Instant Air Brush Tanning Spray to maintain a healthy glow during spring & summer time and I love it. You can actually get 20% OFF of the price (sale expires in 10 hours!) if you order it from the link I've provided.

4. Do NOT pick at your skin! Try your best to keep your hands off, even if they are clean. The oil from your hands will cause bacteria to spread from the blemish you are picking at! Eww.

5. Try Apple Cider Vinegar to clear your face from unwanted blemishes & pimples! My fiance introduced me to Apple Cider Vinegar. He considers it as the perfect home remedy. It's good for weight loss, killing bacteria and like 10 other things. If Gus Portokalos from My Big Fat Greek Wedding was introduced to Apple Cider Vinegar, he'd never use Windex again.

What are your tips for maintaining healthy skin?! Share below in a comment, I love responding back!
