The you that you were 5 years ago is not the you that you are now.

& if you are - then that's a problem.

So if that principle applies to yourself- that should apply to your life too, right?
Correcto!
The life you had 5 years ago should not be what it is now, nor 5 years in the future.

The life you had 5 years ago was created by the you that you were at that time. It would be impossible to have to life you do right now and be the person you were then.

You weren't "qualified" to build this moment right now then.
Meaning, you are not qualified to build your life 5 years in the future by being you as you are right now.

To continue growing, you must continue to put in the work.

I like to visualize the me I want to be 1,3, & 5 years from now.
It effin' excites the 💩 out of me!

When I struggle with taking action & making decisions to better myself, I like to ask "Is this what Ashliegh 5 years from now would choose/do?"

& by asking myself that question, I am propelling myself a minimum of 1% further each day to the Ashliegh I want to become.

How are you moving the needle forward daily for you?

Let me help you create the 5-year you!

"But I'm just not there yet." She said, as she lowered her head, feeling defeated.

As the other replied, "Oh, honey, you don't have to be "there" yet. You are here, in this moment. You have arrived to the person you are supposed to be in this very moment. Whatever that looks like."
_______________

We get too consumed with "I'm not there yet."
As you gawk up the metaphorical mountain of work that it takes to get "there".

As I am also guilty of both of these things ⬆️.
I am not an exception to the rule of human nature.
_______________

While instead, we should focus on what we can do today
What we can do in this moment right now to take impactful action towards bettering ourselves into the person we want to become.

❗️Every action is a vote for the person you want to become.❗️

Your actions are entangled around the identity you give yourself and the stories you narrate (consciously or unconsciously) to yourself.

_______________

Everyday the goal is to just do 1% better. That's it. You don't even have to make the best or right decision for every action... because were human, and were not perfect. But if you can sum up the day to 1% better. Then you've won.

That is 365% improvement in a year.
1095% better in 3 years!

If you do 1% better each day it's impossible to be the same person in 3 years.
Every day the goal is to just do 1% better. That's it. You don't even have to make the best or right decision for every action... because were human, and were not perfect.

But if you can sum up the day to 1% better. Then you've won.

How are you voting for yourself?

The people who are unwilling to grow & try new things are not willing to leave what is comfortable-what they know, what they have practiced.

Being comfortable means being in your comfort zone. And we like to stay in our warm comfort zone, it feels safe.

But while hangin out in the box that you keep yourself in locked away in, you look out with binoculars - screaming, wondering why your life isn’t changing, why things aren’t happening, or why the wrong or bad things are happening.
You’re pointing fingers, placing blame, pacing back and forth on what to do, while at the same time snackin’ on envy of others.

Being uncomfortable means stepping out into the unknown.
It means fear, anxiety, unpredictability.
It means you’ll be cold for a bit - until you find your new warmth.

& THAT’S OKAY.
IT’S OKAY TO BE UNCOMFORTABLE
It’s not the end of your world
No one has died solely from being uncomfortable

People who are unwilling to grow & try new things cling to what they know then blame that their life turned out wrong.
If you are a person who is closed minded, unwilling to grow, change, & try new things. You will always keep yourself in this metaphorical box wondering why your life hasn’t turned out the way you want.

Don’t let that happen.
I don’t know if you realize this (cause I didn’t until about 22). But you are in control of yourself and your life. You are the key holder to that box 🔐

Hop on over in the drivers seat, babe.
It’s pretty fun once you catch the hang of it. ✌🏼🤙🏼

Do you know the things in life that make you happy, bring little bouts of joy to your day?

If someone asked you to make a list of those things, could you?

If you answered no - maybe do some thinking on this. If you don’t consciously identify through speech and/or writing the things that make you happy - then you’re brain isn’t wired and prepared to be on the lookout 👀 for happiness and joy.

Your brain searches for whatever you tell it to. You say, “Brain, today is a 💩 day.” Your brain is going to find any and every speckle of a reason to keep checking off that mental clipboard you brain likes to keep to reinforce things - usually negative.

Why not get a new mental clipboard to check off positive things, things that bring you joy?!

Sit down and WRITE out a list of about 5-10 things that bring you happiness and joy. If you have to come back to it later, then so be it. The objective isn’t getting it done or a time frame. It’s identifying your joys in life.

Before I started my online journey I was already in the personal development space. But not like this. Whew. I stepped into a whole new world of personal development

*cue the scene from Narnia where the girl walks into Narnia for the first time through the wardrobe 🫣* .

Personal development allows you to learn, connect, & grow with yourself on a much deeper level. You get to learn about the core of you.

And if you ask me, that’s pretty slick 🤭.

You may ask - Okay, Ashliegh, so what is your happy list?

Well here’s some things that kindle joy within me :
1. The laugh, smile, & sweet voice of my son.
2. Feeling the warmth of the sun on my skin
3. Ice cream. Anytime. Anywhere, baby.
4. Seeing the color yellow anything.
5. Smiling at or receiving smiles from others
6. Knowing I have made someone’s day &/or life better in some way, shape, or form.
7. Sunsets and sunrises

What brings you joy and happiness?

After you have a child -
There are many things you …or your family no longer do by yourself.

Travel is one of them.

This week I traveled home to visit family for thanksgiving.

As someone who does not live near my family, it is always fun to travel and see them. All of us act as a family unit for the children. We all entertain the kids, care for them, feed them, keep them from accidentally killing themselves- as that’s our sole responsibility as parents in the early years.

Something that our modern day society has gotten away from.

Each time I visit home I get to see the love in my family grow & the love embraced.

Traveling with my child is something that brings me the upmost joy in my life. A top 3 priority in my life really. Some people may bash at that.

But my whole life I have DREAMED of a life of travel & taking my children along with me. Taking my family with me. Wherever that may be.

That is something I am not willing to compromise on.

This is something that working online to make a passive income can offer me.

AND STILL work when I’m traveling. Any place. Any time of day. So that means I can enjoy my travel time with my family and save work for down time or after bedtime.

You may be thinking “I can’t do that. That isn’t for me. It sounds too good to be true.”

Well, how do you know? You don’t.

Just as we tell our children - you never know if you don’t try 👍🏻

"Learn to work harder on yourself than you do your job. If you work on your job you'll make a living. If you work harder on yourself, well, you'll make a fortune."

These are the wise words of Jim Rohn.

When you begin to shift your focus and work from your job to yourself, your life changes. Now, am I saying abandon all work ethic you have, be a bad employee, & do just enough to keep from getting fired. No.

I am just saying to take some of that energy, some of the work ethic from your job and channel it into YOU. Your job will quit on you, fire you. But you'll never quit on yourself. You can never be fired from being you. Only you can make yourself a fortune - in many aspects other than just financial.

When I think of "fortune" for myself I think of time fortune. Having the time fortune to live my life as I please, to focus on working on myself, to focus on raising my family without the stress of a boss, job, & all the other baggage that comes with your specific job.

If you don't take charge of you & your life & begin consciously choosing EVERYDAY to work harder on yourself then you do your job, then you will always be left feeling let down.

Do something different the next 90 days that you didn't do the last 90 days!

In the picture on the left, I had just graduated college with my BS in public health. I was ecstatic. But I had no idea of the road ahead of me. Now, while this picture was taken a little over a year ago - I couldn't limit the description of the growth in myself to just the lsat 90 days.

The growth that has only been possible due to my business. Without my business I would not be the person I am, met the amazing people I have met. The girl in the picture on the right has a whole new confidence and way she carries herself. I have shed many tears, said many cussings, and pushed myself to new levels that would never have been possible without this.

You can have this too.

You gotta know you're gonna win.
Every. Single. Day.

You gotta get obsessed in order to win. If you're only half in and half out. Well, you're gonna get half ass results. Then be left disappointed when you're not seeing the full result.

Think of some of the successful people in the world (regardless of your opinion of them). To achieve the amount of success they have - do you think they half assed it?

Every single day I get up and look myself in the mirror and say "I am going to win. I am a winner, I will achieve my goals, see the results. I am successful." And then I follow that with the daily action of achieving my level and definition of success. In my head, I've already achieved it, it just hasn't materialized.

That is the key to success for anyone. Believing it's POSSIBLE FOR YOU!

In my business, I help coach individuals towards achieving their definition of success. We will break down limiting beliefs that keep you where you are, learn how to set goals, create new habits, learn marketing, business, and communication skills while also getting to be a part of an online community who are all reaching for the same things!

If this is something that you know you need to propel you to your next level in life comment "ME" below and I will personally reach out to you!

Has the world ever felt bland to you?

Boring, grey, maybe even like you're experiencing it through a dirty window?

Give YOURSELF PERMISSION to find and kindle joy in your life.
Give yourself permission to find the beauty.

I have said this before & and I will say it many times ag*in. Your perspective is either your passport or your prison. The quality of our lives is fundamentally based upon the goggles in which we choose to view it.

Think about how you view your life. Do you place blame on others, events, situations, & circumstances? Are you stuck living in the past?

Or do you view life through a more clear lens - viewing the good in life, the good in people, the good in your mistakes, the good in most importantly - YOURSELF?

If you ask yourself and don't like the answer to this question, then it might be time for some work within yourself.

For some reason in our world, we feel a large to seek validation & permission from others, from ourselves.
So start by giving your own self permission to just find joy. When you start seeking it, you will find where it has been hiding. You will begin to see things that have been there all along, but you couldn't see - because it's not what you were looking for. You were too busy staring out the dirty window, complaining about how dirt it is and that no one has washed it.

Loneliness.

A human emotion that we all are all to familiar with.

We live on a planet with 7 billion+ others of our kind - why are we feeling this?

Because loneliness (is not only) being isoloated by yourself…

But mostly by being surrounded by a room full of people and not being fully known.
(Especially around family)

Whew. That’s some deep s**t.

Ouch. My heart just pulled & sank as I typed this.
It wasn’t long ago that I felt this feeling TO MY CORE.

When you are in the trenches of this feeling, you look around & wonder if you’re the only one feeling this.
It may feel like you’re living your life through a piece of plexiglass.
You wonder if the others around you know you feel this way.

This feeling can feel absolutely debilitating. . . .

But I can assure you, there is a way out. It takes work. But it can get better.

https://ashlieghdollarmarketing.com/

You just have to find “your people”. The people you vibe with, the people that bring out the best in you, that make you want to be and do better, the ones who think like you.

These are people that you likely dont even know yet, cause if they were - then you wouldnt be feeling like this.

You gotta search for them, attract them, put yourself out there. Search for new opportunities.

My business has given me my way out. Not just solely from the business but also in my personal life. It has taught me how to be me - the version of me I am supposed to be on this Earth - not what society wants me to be.

I have met my group of people. Which has taught me how to find these people in my personal life. I am now “choosier” of who I pick to associate with and let in my life. My business is so much more than a business to and for me. I have grown in ways that would have never been possible without it. I am forever grateful for choosing to look outside of my normal “box” (comfort zone).

If you continue each day to never change, to reach out of your comfort zone - then nothing will ever change. S**t don’t just happen. You gotta make it happen.

Till next time,
Ashliegh ❤️

Finding your passion in life isnt just about what you do in life…but creating who you are.

That’s the great thing about being human and living life - you get to CREATE who YOU want to be.

Finding your passion in life isn't just about what you do in life…but creating who you are. - well HA! That’s just a bonus.

The alluring thing about my business & my life - there's this thing called the internet that makes it a hell of a lot easier and provides an unconventional way from earning a living to help you get out of the office, hospital, ambulance, fire truck, car, or whatever job that is keeping you stuck from fulfilling your dreams.

*i

So, there’s this thing I need to tell ya bout’.

This thing - it… it is … phenomenal.
Some might call it addicting…energizing.
Like nothin’ they’ve ever experienced before.
When they finally get their hands on it, wrap their brains around it - they can’t let go.
They can’t do anything except keep going. It’s all-consuming.

& until you do find this for yourself, you’re left feeling drained, resentful, nihilistic, depressed, anxious, mundane, aimlessly wandering, & no fire in your life or light to show the way.

This thing I’m talkin’ bout’ - it’s your purpose. Your Ikig*i.

Your purpose, your Ikig*i in life gives you everything. It gives you true meaning, direction, light, energy, purpose, fuel & will to live - to life your head up & keep going. You are fueled with an energy you have never experienced before.

The first time I discovered my 1st nugget of purpose was in a car accident at 16, being extracted from a vehicle I was entrapped in for 3 hours, hanging upside down by my seatbelt.

That little nugget told me it was my purpose to help & be of service to others. I have gotten many more nuggets of direction since that day. I have since honed down how I am exactly supposed to be of service and help others.

I AM HERE. I have arrived.

I have not been able to stop since that day. I am fueled with an energy and a happiness that would have never been possible without finding & chasing my TRUE purpose on this earth.

When you are not doing what you are “supposed” to be doing, you must find and muster up the energy.
But when you are doing what you’re “supposed” to be doing - the universe provides that energy, it flows through you. It is nearly effortless.

This is how you are rewarded for finding and following your life's purpose.

So now, I want to ask you if you haven’t asked yourself.
What is your purpose - your Ikig*i?
How are you going to find it, if not?
How are you going to chase it, if so?

Comment below what your passion is or if you are struggling on finding that passion. I will personally reach out to discuss this with you more!

Let’s chat!

IKIGAI 🌼

Your reason for being.

This is a Japanese concept born from traditional Japanese health and wellness medicine centered around finding your purpose in life.

It combines the terms iki, meaning “alive” or “life,” and g*i, meaning “benefit” or “worth.”

Ikig*i is based on 4 principles :

* What you love ❤️
What brings you the most fulfillment in life? What gives you goosebumps when you think or speak about it?

* What you're good at 💪🏼
What are your talents, skills, or hobbies?

* What the world needs 🌏
This can be the world as a whole, a small community or niche of people, or anything in between.

* What you can get paid for 💵
What do you love, what are your skills, who are you serving, and what does the market need?

Have you ever asked yourself these questions?

It wasn't until I sat down and gave my full attention to these questions that I could put the puzzle pieces together for myself. That I could really begin to make my passions line up with what I can get paid for.

How can your passions and the things you are good at then line up to generate a stream of income for you?

If you don't know how, or even the answers to those questions above...
drop a "👋🏼" below and I will personally reach out to you and we can discuss how you can figure out your puzzle!

To have more
You simply have to become more

Tonight, as I sit at my kitchen table working part-time towards building my fortune, I get in the mood to jam the hell out and sing. Singing is one of my favorite things to do & I don't do it often enough. My partner, who is gaming in the other room comes in and tells me jokingly "I didn't know it was karaoke night". He came in later with another smart-ass joking remark.

I had two choices here.

F*** it & keep singing at my own karaoke night....or shut it down and send everyone home (everyone including just me, myself, and I).

I decided to keep it rollin'. 🎵🎤

You also hold that power. That choice.
Every. single. day. we have others around us trying to shut us down, keep us quiet, and discourage us.

& what do you do more times than not?
Listen to them?
Let them shut you down?

You're left feeling down, maybe embarrassed, and down on yourself.

NO,NO, NO. 🚫👎🏼

Don't you let others quiet you.
You are fierce, you are valuable, your voice and words are beautiful.

You are a force to be reckoned with!

& the ones who can't see that - well that's just a reflection of how they feel about themselves & don't you pay them no attention.

So, next time someone wants you to quiet down, you refuse. Keep it rollin'.

Cause they just can't see what you see, what you have.

Keep it rollin', keep it real✌🏼

As you see more of my face and my posts, you may be thinking “ Who is this chick with the cockatoo hair, & what is she up to?”

Well, lemme tell ya.

Hello there!
I’m Ashliegh!
I want to thank you for giving me your time to read my post and allowing me to bring value to your days.

I am currently a working mom who works full-time for a living & works part-time on my fortune. . .

But have big aspirations to become a MOM.TRA.PANUER
( Mom. Traveler. Entrepreneur )

“Well, how the heck are ya doin’ that, Ashliegh?”

I help working parents get out of the 9-5 tornado of balancing a job with family life. So that they can just focus on anything besides the stress of the 9-5 tornado.

“Okay, but like howwww?”

I provide digital marketing and lifestyle coaching using a network marketing platform.

While I have not been able to leave the 9-5 tornado yet, I am well on my way to doing so. I have the first thing necessary - a promising opportunity ... & I know a good opportunity when I see one.

Within the next 5 years I WILL have achieved:
- Leaving my full-time job to stay home and raise my kids
- Traveling frequently
- Be debt-free (or almost)

This can be your shot. This can bring you the peace you so long for.

Maybe you’ve tried other side hustles and they just never panned out…& you blamed you. Maybe it wasn’t all you- did you think of that? Maybe it was the business model, the lack of support and education, maybe?

What is an experiment? 🔬

C’mon, you know you remember from the 3rd grade.

A procedure used to make discoveries, test a hypothesis or demonstrate a known fact.

You know what else is kind of like an experiment?
Life

Life is all about making discoveries, asking a question, researching it, testing it, and analyzing your results over and over ag*in in many different aspects, daily.

Sometimes we glare at others and think “Hmm, why/how are they so much farther on their experiment than me? They really got it all figured out.”

None of us actually have it all figured out and know exactly what we're doing each step of the way. Although it might seem that way.

They don’t. & I bet if you said that to them they would laugh.

I know I would.

I do.

Sometimes, the ones farther along can look over at our struggles, when we just can’t get the concentration of the solution right - & lend a helping hand or a tip to help us along the way.

We are all scientists, & we’re all performing the same but different experiments on this thing called life.

We are all in this together, just at different stages of the experimental procedure. . . . .

How can you be a better lab partner for yourself and others?
