Ladies, the Joneses are everywhere lurking around this holiday season. Who are the Joneses. Well , in particularly they are so called friends and even some family members. You would think in this recession they would let up, oh no, they won't. If you want to beat them at their own game you must do the exact opposite of what they do. Most Joneses do not save , they slave over fashion, hair, products, spend like there is no tomorrow, talk about everybody and everything they have no knowledge of and are literally poor. They are poor in spirit and strength.

You must come to realize that people are different and  you  can not impose your will on them and certainly they can not impose their  will on you. So, I implore you for this holiday and moving forward to put the Joneses on the fence. Redirect your inner voice back to you. Get   involve in something you passionately love to do whatever that may be; discover your own strength and stay motivated. More importanly,  make a decision  to bring prosperity into your life not for the new year but today because tomorrow is not promise.

For more  ways to live out your passion read my published article " Compass is encouraging women throughout the world " in the New York Examiner.

I am so feeling your post. We need to get back to the basics of life and stop trying to compete with our neighbor.
