Hello Beautiful, DC Metropolitan Ladies Networking League

As we move into the New Year 2014, don't pounder to much on the so called  "New Years Resolution" but seek a "Better You Resolution."  We need to do our best to stay on the path GOD has for us. Some of us know exactly what that is, and others are still searching for that. I do know that treating other humans with kindness, respect, love, and care will help us stay on that path. Stop taking one another for granted, or putting money first.  We are on this earth together as Christians to look out for each other. Lets make 2014 the year we start.  Have a Most Wonderful Christmas, and a Very Prosporous, Productive, Loving New Year. ❄❄❄   As Always, Be Blessed...... Something Amazing is Coming! Nykea Williams😊

Make big bucks, from home, having fun? These women got creative and figured out a way to have it all. You can too. By Debbie Koenig on MSN   Think about what you'd like to get up every morning and do, and let these women motivate you to follow their well-paid path. If you love: Travel Crafts designer:  Pamela Roskin lives in Brooklyn, NY, but fell in love with Bali, so she started working with Balinese artisans to create sterling silver jewelry. She sells pieces—like gorgeous bangle bracelets—from her new company, Nineteen Seventy-Four, on QVC.com. If you've got connections to a particular region, seek out artisans whose work you can interpret for the North American market. Travel agent:  From her Indiana home, Julie Sturgeon runs Curing Cold Feet, a full-service travel agency and website. Her secret? She's actually an independent contractor with MTravel.com, which is the "host agency" division of Montrose Travel. Host agencies provide their contract...

Great Nutrition info ladies, for your inner and outer beauty. :) Fruits and dark green veggies. It should be no surprise that this section of the food pyramid made the cut. Fruits and veggies are one of the best things you can incorporate into your diet for overall health. In terms of your hair, leafy green vegetables like spinach and broccoli are an excellent source of vitamins and they provide you with iron and calcium. Fruits high in vitamin C and A help your body to produce sebum. (Sebum is an oily substance in your hair follicles that acts as a natural conditioner.) Strawberries, oranges and grapefruits are the best vitamin booster fruits for hair. Foods with omega-3 fatty acids. If you're having déjà vu, you may be remembering this category in my Tuesday Ten list for healthy skin . Omega-3 fatty acids are a powerhouse when it comes to giving you a good glow. Munch on flaxseeds and walnuts to add some serious shine to your hair, and choose fish like salmon, mackerel,...

Nuts, Nuts, and Nuts....... A healthy treat.     As Always, Be Blessed...... Nykea Williams

Ladies, I heard this encouraging message on Opera's Lifeclass with Joel Osteen. "If the dream you have for your life is easily accessible, then your not dreaming big enough".  Believe that GOD can do anything in your life. It was also said that " GOD can make any dream you have greater than you could ever imagine". You all deserve a Blessed life, and We all deserve to have all of our dreams to come true. Stay positive Ladies, speak positive words into your life. Smile more, and encourage each other. Have a Wonderful week......... :-) As Always, Be Blessed...... Nykea Williams
