Two teammates crossline from me sent nice posts to a group I'm on where we all share success stories, tips, advice, and encouragement for our candle business. I thought I'd share the posts/stories so you can enjoy them too. The first one, I apologize, I do not know who the author is that wrote it but I like it just the same. The 2nd one is funny but it's so true, lol. ;-)

An Old Man and His 3 Sons
An old man wanted to leave all of his money to one of his three sons, but he didn't know which one he should give it to. He gave each of them a few coins and told them to buy something that would be able to fill their entire living room. The first man bought straw, but there was not enough to fill the room. The second bought some sticks, but they still did not fill the room. The third man bought two things that filled the room, so he obtained his father's fortune. What were the two things that the man bought?
==========================================
The very wise son bought a candle and a box of matches. After lighting the candle, the light filled the entire room.



If I'm Dreaming, Don't Wake Me!!
Once upon a time, an ambitious woman enters a successful store with a reputation for beautiful, fine quality merchandise. She walked right up to the owner and said, "Sir, I am very impressed with your establishment. I'd like to come on board and build a career here. I can promise you that I'll work hard and do a great job. In return, I ask for the following:

1. First, I'd like to earn 50% commission on everything I sell.

2. Then, if I bring in and train new people, I think I deserve some commission on everything they sell.

3. Now, when I do well, I expect lots of praise and recognition, not to mention products, special rewards and gifts.

4. By the way, I'm afraid I'm not into the 9 to 5 scene. So, I'll want to set my own schedule and work when it suits me best.

5. And of course, my family ALWAYS comes first.

Okay, I think that's about it. So, when can I start? After the storeowner recovered from the shock, he roared with laughter, "Lady, you can't be serious! You're living in a dream world. You'll never find an opportunity like that ANYWHERE!"

HE WAS WRONG!
I found that opportunity as a Mia Bella Distributor!!
