Pearls of Wisdom


Words of wisdom from Vivacious Vicki!!

*life's a marathon, not a sprint

*if you work 24/7 like moi that's ok - you're working while others are resting, I honestly believe people who are successful worked their arses off; they didn't get to that level by accident or by loafing! They also got to that level by learning. Taking risks. Being smart. And surrounding themselves with good people.

*sometimes you get what you pay for

*time is often more precious than money. Don't save a few bucks like taking a local bus from the airport which will take you 2 1/2 hours instead of a 40 minute cab ride.

*bling is beautiful! But you risk the possibility of overaccessorizing, watch out for the matchy-match.

*Don't waste calories on bad chocolate!

*You can never be too rich or too thin or too happy....wheeeeeeeeeee!

*Cupcakes really do make you feel better.

(yeah, and you thought all of my pearls of wisdom were gonna be serious? HA!)

*Manhattan is the center of the universe (I am so not kidding!)

*Always be the best you that you can be, be your authentic self, be comfortable in your skin

*Ask the universe (not the NYC Universe silly, THE Universe) what you want. Check that - you have to know what you really truly madly deeply want first. Then ask and sit back and let it happen. Kidding! Go after it, go, go, go, what are you waiting for???

*Yesterday's history, tomorrow's a mystery, today's a gift that's why we call it the present! ~Eleanor Roosevelt
