I think a lot of people in this world would be happier if they apply that rule to life. And they would find that people will look at them different too. I know if you treat me with respect, I will do the same to you! So why not make it a goal to live by this rule? I'll get off my soapbox now. Goodnight and see ya on the flip side!

Life's Golden Rule
When I was little, I learned about the Golden Rule: do unto others as you would have them do unto you. I can't preach this enough today. If you treat me like crap and take me for granted, why would you expect me to put you on a pedestal and let you do whatever you want without saying what I thought? Or if you don't give me the time of day when I'd like to enjoy your company and then if I'm doing something all of a sudden you want me to spend time with you and you get mad when I don't want to?!?!

Thoughts, thoughts, and more thoughts
Any time that I have free time, my mind thinks about all sorts of things. But there are some thoughts that come up daily. These thoughts make a lot of my life choices questionable. Don't get me wrong, I am very happy with my life but it seems like I have these "What ifs" going on in my head daily.
I'm happy with the career that I chose because I want to help people and turn a bad day into good along with getting to know them too. But is this really what I want to do for the rest of my life? I didn't make good grades at all in Math, Science, or English to excel in any career involving those, so that leaves out a LOT of careers.
I'm a quiet, shy person at first but once you get to know me I can be outgoing and fun. But I'm not confident in myself whatsoever. If I had only been more outgoing at first, I think I would be more confident in myself today. I was the baby of the family and was picked on a lot so that didn't help with my confidence as a child. If only I wouldn't second guess myself and not let fear take over.
Another thing is I want to travel to many different places in the U.S. and around the world. My 2 main places that I'd like to go to is Paris, France and Rome, Italy. I'm just scared to fly. I also feel like the need to move from my current home but why would I uproot my children from their friends and family. And how in the world would I be able to move hundreds or even a thousand miles away from my mom?!?!
So many thoughts going through my mind daily but these I'd say are the main ones that I really think about. Being scatter brained doesn't help any either....Let's just hope I will be able to settle some of these or be able to fufill a couple of them! ;)
It's late and after being up since 4:30 in the morning and working a 12 hour shift, I'm going to try and go to sleep without thinking! Goodnight! :)

Unmotivational Days
This is the first time I've ever blogged so here goes. I created this in hopes of finding others that go through or relate to what I go through. On the flip side, maybe I can help others too! But getting back on the subject....
I am completely unmotivated to do ANYTHING here lately and I can't stand it! I recently signed up to be a Beachbody Coach (2nd time around) and started to do the Shakeology shakes along with ChaLean Extreme but with working weekends and hubby playing video games then, and taking care of the kids and house, I can't really do the workouts. Then come Monday, I'm behind on the workout schedule. I want to get a different workout but would like to earn a little money first. I'm trying to be optimistic but it's hard to these days when you don't have the time needed to devote to getting your business started.
Another thing is I'd like to bring in extra income to help make up hours that I'm not working. I only work 24 hours every weekend. It's great though because hubby works Tuesday through Friday and me on the weekends, which a babysitter isn't needed. So that prompts me into wanting to make something, whether it be making something crafty or baking something. But that brings me back to being unmotivated and too complicated and much for my brain to process.
Although these past few days (and weeks) have made me not want to accomplish anything, 2013 is coming to a close and a new year is upon us. So, here's to 2014, may you bring me ideas, a lot of motivation, and extra income!
I guess I need to tell you a little bit about me too! Lol
My name is Natalie Cortelloni and I'm 27. I've been married to Daniel for 7 years. We have a wonderful, smart son, Christian Anthony, who will be 7 tomorrow! We also have an awesome, beautiful daughter, Danielle Rose, who just turned 1 Nov 12th! I'm an RN and love what I do!
