Air Head Me

This is what I wrote on Thursday the 13th:

I don't know what it is about this week, but I just cannot get myself to stay on track! First, I started off by playing games instead of working Monday. That put me completely behind when it came to getting books out and collecting orders on Tuesday, and even Wednesday. Today, I am suppose to start getting ready for my table at Fast Wireless on Saturday, but it took me over 5 hours to write my social media posts! I keep getting distracted with other things (okay, so Facebook), and my mind is wandering a million miles a minute it seems like. I keep thinking about 3 or 4 other things I need to do, yet not getting any of it done. Not sure how I'm going to get anything done if I can't figure out what I need to do today to stay on track.



Today is Monday the 17th, and I still feel the same way. I feel like a complete air head. I have plenty of stuff to do, but I've just been going blank and spacing out scrolling Facebook. At least today feels like it was more productive than last Thursday or Friday. I got my social media posts done for today and tomorrow, looked up the discontinues for 1st quarter, and read a blog article on getting more customers. I feel like I did such a crappy job at my table on Saturday (one customer and their info only), that I hope I get invited back so I can try again. I have orders to deliver tomorrow, and books to get out, so hopefully I will get that stuff done. Having my social media done already will help a lot.

I wish I could figure out why I am like this lately. I know I have to get this stuff done to be able to earn the trip to Los Cabos, but I just don't seem to be getting it done. I still need to contact leads (haven't done it in a couple of weeks), message my down line, find more leads, and try to get two more people to sign up and become QNRs (Qualified New Recruits) before the end of Campaign 2 so I can get double points for anyone else I get signed up. I just feel overwhelmed with it all, and don't feel like I have any help (and in all reality, I don't).

I have a list of posts I want to write, but hell, I wanted to finish this one last week and I'm just now getting to it, and it's 3:32 PM, so I'm rushing because I have to leave around 4ish to go get Midget.

My husband said over the weekend that I'm going to have to work this 80+ hours a week to be able to do what I want, and I think it actually sunk in for him that that is what I will have to do. And he's been working 60-65 a week.

I know this business is a waiting game, but I'm having a hard time. I barely see any movement in my books it seems like, barely any phone calls, and having to tell people we don't carry what they are looking for doesn't help either. I'm trying not to get frustrated, but it is hard. With all the shorts we have this year, and reading all the complaining in different Facebook groups, it makes it that much harder. Older reps are saying that this is not normal, and a lot of the problem is the trade war going on, but it's so hard to stay positive when you see as much complaining as has been going on for over a month now.

Well, unfortunately it's time to move on to the next thing. I'm hoping to get to write another post by the end of the week. I know I want a lot of this blog to be about Avon, but just being able to put my feelings down, and to put my thoughts into written words helps a whole lot. Have a great day!
