Motivation Monday by Magda

Why not wake up in the morning and make it great day every day! Everywhere I go people ask me why I am so positive? It’s a choice. It’s my belief. If you choose to be this way, nothing can stop you. The truth is, I have a ritual that I’d like to share with you for free. No webinar, no video, no membership costs!

Wake up today and get your heart rate up for twenty minutes. The rate you are looking to achieve is between 115-120 beats per minute. Go old school and put your hand on your wrist and count for sixty seconds. The pulse should be in this range. Once you have achieved that rate maintain it for twenty minutes. Run through the neighborhood, make love to your committed partner (heart health is better when you have a loyal partner) chase your toddler, jump for joy- just maintain.

A study conducted in the University of Georgia concludes that if you exercise moderately, three times a week before your day begins, you mitigate daily stress and protect your mood from being disturbed. This type of exercise does more to boost thinking than thinking does! Just twenty minutes a day creates a mood enhancing effect which translates to a happier more positive YOU!

Everyone can do this. Like keeping positive, it’s a choice. I wish you only healthy choices. It’s never too late! This way, nothing can break your stride. Stride, I can’t believe I run marathons! Amazeballs!

and if you don’t know, it’s better than coffee,

ho! ho! ho!

Dear Santa, (you sexy thang)
At the dynasty this week, at least four wonderful deliveries arrived from people, places and businesses that Atrevete, Inc. touched (I need touch). I saw dancing delivery men wearing ear buds holding elaborate baskets and bags and gifts almost daily this past week. Every time they knocked on the door, I smiled. I didn’t know who the gifts were from, but I knew it was mad appreciation for the work we performed. The light we shed, the pitches we successfully made and the profits turned on behalf of our clients- worked!! Eureka, we struck gold! Other than Doctor Dribble, as he is the only athlete we represent, the professional firms, and stores we represent were already established businesses. The only baby born in front of me was StopSmokingStartLiving. All of these businesses increased sales and surpassed financial goals. Did you put this success in my stocking? I knew it was you, thank you!
Your little elf must have placed individual goal reaching in a box too, because I was able to stomp on some of my own limits this year as well. I ran marathons, I became a Certified Professional Coach and I am a day trader.
So in three days, when you land on my roof, be careful it’s a 1920’s home and very expensive to insure, all I want for Christmas that I haven’t received this year is …………….

– Jimmy Choos (Size 7.5, just one more pair)
– A gift Certificate to Studio LX (the girls to help accessorize too)
– A gift Certificate to Shop Splash (Bibi and La Lopez for advice)
– Ten hours with Suzel Vazquez MD (magic hands)
– Ten hours with Jhonny Salomon (rounder bottom)
– A lifetime Membership to Newton’s Method (jail tight WHAT)
– A lifetime Membership to Body&Soul (a lil Jugo Fresh too)
– The Stop Smoking Start Living anecdote for all smokers
– Marlyne Alexander to include me in the book
– A yearly tax return from Lopez & Partners, LLC (can’t forget the IRS)
– Duck Dynasty to return (Uncle Phil for Prez and I have gay friends)
– An honest, gorgeous, loving boyfriend (Strike this, I open my eyes to him everyday)
– Health (I earn it daily)
– A wonderful, producing, healthy son (Oh yeah, I own this already)
I was good this year and promise to come at you strong in 2014. Back up, I am braced to fight hard!
Santa, I really wanted to tell you how grateful I am for Roman, Darren and my health! I am not trying to get extra brownie points or anything, just like to say thanks a lot! It is important to never forget who loves you, so you can love them back.
Love,
Lil’ Ball Magda (it’s our little secret)
and if you don’t know, I believe in magic

This blog has been more than what I bargained for. People do scream my name. the waters did rise and I did have to build walls. I did fall in love. This time, there is no pain. I met so many wonderful people. It has been surreal.
“dare to be different’ happened because I lost what I knew to be mine. I lost my marriage, my family, my normalcy. I was dared.
I chose to accept the dare and be different. My son chose this slogan for my company and these words mean much to both him and I. they ring true every day.
I was the girl that kept wearing the same black dress. And then Marilyn came into my life. Her army, michelle, lauren and christina started texting me. Poking me, rebuilding me. Simple kindness and Jimmy Choos will cure all ailments. Studio LX became part of my firm. Old friends came out of hiding, Bibi and christy made a Splash and introduced me to Ivette. We did a television promo in everything Alexis. Now, I was ready.
The choice to quit smoking, saved a lot more than my life. It gave me purpose to pay it forward. I became humble. I am grateful. stopsmokingstartliving is my duty now. Shacky started me moving with this movement. That’s a great record to make.
My body is my temple, my soul is hard to touch. Body & Soul opened during my transformation and is a great part of my success. Pharrell and Kim Kardashian were memories only a big guy like Alex can afford me.
Doctor Dribble walked into B&S and my heart simultaneously. he brought with him a new method. A new method of living and a new method of loving. Without any hesitation, he is my favorite client.
I am a beast. I am a marathoner. (Roman likes to clarify half- marathoner) I have abs. I squat properly. I swing. The credit is mine and the venue in which this took place is Newton’s Method.
Chrsitie’s fitness fuel revolutionized brownies. How does chocolate become so sexy? #eatmeguiltfree

Suzel Vazquez MD cuts like a non-invasive laser. Impressive list of clientele. Marlyne Alexander Photography memorialized MLB and the greater Miami area. Unique Me Magazine elected A Femme Fatale that turned out to be an angel, a fellow blogger.
Not only that, they discovered a Man with Heart, my heart to be exact.
Throughout this blog, I did many good deeds and they deeded me back. Its no cliché that when you help someone else, you help yourself the most.
I am still one big bang away from the end of this year. I will be rapping up two more goals on my list before 2013 comes to a close.
I celebrated Hanukkah. Why not? He loves me, I love him – it’s cool.
As all greatness, it’s a constant work in progress. My site is being revamped. I was told I cannot blog for a month or two. Haaa!
The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you cannot do. #iwillblogon
Im not sure how, not sure when but please keep checking in- I will be back.
In the meantime, we can set up camp on facebook temporarily or maybe ill pop a squat on a friendly website. What I do know, is that I will come back stronger, larger and better in 2014. I’m dope like that, hard headed.
Till then, raise a glass and know that YES, I did it all!!

and if you don’t know, I’ve only just begun,

I don’t twerk, I work

Sweatlife is addicting. I am an addict. I replaced Marlboro Red at a pack and a half a day for a Real Ryde with m*ergy and now too, a Method created by a formidable golfer.

I have tried many ways to sweat, to get strong, to become empowered. All of them are effective. You take out what you put in. It’s immediate. It’s loyal and gratifying. If only love was so easy.

This weekend however, I tried something new. I drew blood from my assailant. I punched a six foot two inch man in the face. I have bruises all over my body. My manicure is in tact, thankfully. This experience is Self Defense instructed by my friend, (I hope still) Orestes Sampson. He gave a short (Ha!) seminar explaining why people attack, what happened to them, how they think, what provokes these incidents and then we got physical. Not Olivia Newton John physical more like MMA material. My favorite part of the seminar was when he said, ” in result, the biggest mistake an assailant will make is picking me as his victim”. The tone was set for the physical aspect of this class. I sweat like a pig, learned how to tenderize a mistaken attacker and make regret any fool who thinks I’m scared. I encourage all men, women and children to learn how to defend themselves. I highly recommend the Big O, be your choice for instructor on this topic. Thank you Orestes, I am stronger.

My Business Mag coming out in November will be featuring one of our blossoming clients, Soy Delicious. The article is about Hispanic Entrepeneurs. I hope they include the tiny fact that she is a Super Spartan and soon an IronMan. This month M2, send me Burberry candles or more Bond whatever suits you.

November will also be the month of the official launch of my life saver “stopmokingstartliving” x+ The Kerry Gaynor Method . I read on Instagram the other day about how a man couldn’t believe how you can quit smoking without medicine or crutches. I chuckled. He’s never sat in Kerry’s presence. I dare you.

So the Doctor did it again! He took Philly down like a great meal at Roaster’s and Toaster’s. His next race is in Providence, Rhode Island. How romantic?

Doctor Dribble is racing two of his future races (Chicago and New York) for Diabetes. I’m enclosing the link to donate on his behalf. One of my choice quotes is “You haven’t lived until you do something for someone that can’t pay you back.” It’s a no brainer! #g1ve #doctordribbletour for #Diabetes

Unique Me is coming out first week in October. The month of Halloween! Yay! I’m so excited for this year’s costume. It’s very appropriate. I’m keeping it classy.

New client Shout Out- B Force Bands! You mean, I can travel with functional training? Oh boy! Please show me how tho?

m*ergy is enforcing the tactical approach to the Benjamin Dash weekly in her training sessions at body & soul. Leader that leads and never misleads. Let’s raise money Mari, let’s get muddy sista, I need another frame in the m*ergy room.

This week includes Free People, a sizzle reel and CNN!!! More Yoga, it’s Yoga month. April is enthused- back off, back up it’s time to breathe victoriously….

Dolphin Season, winning!!! I got ring side seats, look for us on the field.

Congrats Big Vic and Lulu Brea!
If you don’t know, schedule self defense with O!!

Why You Mad Tho?

When Alex took me to a construction site not to long ago, he mentioned a juice bar. A few years later, the Jugo Fresh logo is up in the heart of Body & Soul! My drives to Miami Beach will suffer, sorry Mr. Big. Medicina is now down the street from my house. YAY!!

Vilar Cigars in South Miami made a 360! Located next door to the Booby Trap in South Miami, Vilar will be hosting a bikini party weekly for all the folk that can’t get enough from their neighboring business. Manny, I am a non-smoker, but I know the events in your boutique cigar bar will be unforgettable. I know two spinners who happen to be married that might be making cameo appearances from time to time.

So m*ergy is completely booked as her team grew to a massive number in a short seven days. The Benjamin Dash doesn’t know what kind of a tsunami is headed their way. Team m*ergy will be private training for the dash also. If you didn’t sign up for the team, don’t fret- just call 786.253.1589 and beg. Maria loves Chicken and Waffles from Yardbird.

This week I have received over twenty applications of wonderful local vendors trying to get into the Gulliver Holiday MarketPlace for 2013! Please email mighty@atreve-t.com for an application and know it becomes open to the public on September 25. This year already looks to be bomb! Interactive Booths?!

Shop Splash will be having a surprise line coming to their store as soon as Bang gets the Olufsen up! Construction is only making me more anxious. I can’t wait for a chance to wear this stuff. Enough to make me wanna help lay tile and hammer nails in….

Ask Cristie ‘s Fitness Fuel fed shoppers at LuluLemon SouthMiami on Saturday as she danced to a DJ spinning Lulu records. Too cool, and very sexy. Cristie should be a contestant on Dancing with the Stars.

Virginia Beach is his next stop. Doctor Dribble is on his third marathon of the tour. This Superwoman will be amongst the 100,000 fans cheering for you! When can I blog about the official sponsor???

Blog for next Monday will be posted on Tuesday the third of September, the day before New Year. I am learning how to write in Hebrew. It’s a goal.

LULU is the best presence this week. AAPL dipped but stayed strong. Shorting the market took a twist on Friday at 4pm. I’m learning Turkish get ups and stock tricks. Keep teaching because I’m thirsty.

Whadya say this week we hashtag and retweet SuperLove? Neat!

Happy Labor Day peeps, I’ll be blogging from the beach next week.

If you don’t know, now you know!

atrevidamente,
