Blair Critch’s success secret? Visualizing your goals and setting an intention every day.

What’s the big deal about being 200K? Well it’s always nice to be at the top, right? I’m not going to lie. That’s the top of our compensation plan but what’s most important, is that means you have been able to build a strong team and so for me, that makes me excited because now that I’m a 200K it doesn’t mean that I stop and I slow down. Instead, I’m excited and passionate to be able to help other people get where I am now.

I am originally from Atlanta, Georgia, born and raised and grew up in a home where your parents teach you: you go to school, you know what you want to be before you go to college, you go to college for that profession, you graduate and you start a job. And then while you’re in that job maybe you go back to night school, get your masters or your doctorate, and then you retire after 30 years, so that was my game plan.

My friend Elise Lininger introduced me to the jewelry business and she left because she absolutely fell in love with this product called THRIVE and I thought she was nuts. I thought she was absolutely crazy. So I watched for about six months and I even took the product. I took it the wrong way at one point, thought it was garbage, didn’t like it, talked bad about it and actually made fun of Elise and the business. But after watching her for six months and visiting the Facebook fan page I saw these stories and I saw that there was a difference in this product and I decided to take a chance on myself.

I ordered it — I didn’t even tell my husband — and day three was when I really noticed. They noticed the energy and I was like, “well this is awesome.” I felt good in the afternoon when normally I would want a nap. But I still thought, “a lot of vitamins make you feel like that on day one.” Day three I woke up and was like, wow I didn’t hit the snooze button at all and normally I would hit it two or three times. I actually wanted to get out of bed and I felt refreshed. I remember my husband looking at me on Saturday morning and saying “Hey, wait a minute. You have been amazing this week. You’ve cooked dinner every single night, you’ve been in such a great mood, I feel like you’re acting like you did before we had kids — what’s going on?”

So I called Elise and she said, “Awesome! If you get two people to THRIVE with you, then you get your product for free every month, but before you get them to order, we really need to talk about the business, because it’s free. There’s no yearly fee, there’s no website fee, there’s no stocking of inventory — they just go to your website and order and the product gets shipped out to them. So why not get paid for those two orders and also get your product for free?”

This company allows us the flexibility to be able to have layered leadership and help each other out and no matter where we are in each other’s teams. You always have an upline and upline to that upline and so forth and so on. For example, when Kelly Hoover was at Disney World with her two little girls and her husband, we all pulled together. She wants to be 100% connected with them and involved so she said, “Hey, I’m going to be able to check in in the morning and at night, but I can’t check in during the day because we’ll be on rides and at Disney and I don’t wanna have to be attached to my phone, can you help out?” So all of her 200K leaders stepped in and helped out her team. When it was the month end I went on her team page to answer questions they’re having, and make sure they know that their people — their upline leaders — are available to help them with any calls that they need. It’s so different to have a business where everyone’s helping each other out and they always have somebody they can use for a three-way a call or to ask questions. I just love that.

For me personally, the price of the THRIVE Experience is the biggest obstacle. How many of you can relate to that, right? At first that was an obstacle for me and then I got on the THRIVE Experience. Once I got on the THRIVE Experience and I felt those life-changing differences within the first week, I realized that you cannot put a price tag on changing your health and your life. As soon as I changed that mindset, I knew that I had to get this into the hands of every single person I knew. There is no price tag that you can put on making yourself feel this great.

I am a huge believer in vision boards. When there’s moments in my business that I’m sitting behind my desk and don’t feel like working, I look at it and think, “This why I’m working so hard, or this is why I need to pick up the phone and call that person that I’ve been putting off.” It’s what keeps me going.

I have to be able to really visualize what it is, and I also need actionable steps. I like to break mine up based on what’s important to me. And for us and our family it’s God, family, and then my business. And so I have my family stuff, my personal stuff, my business stuff and I have specific goals for each one.

I do a vision board quarterly, so I do it every three months. And by doing that, I make my subconscious believe that it really can happen.

We are headed to the beach to do a little walk with some of my team members. One of the coolest things about a business like this is that we have a flexible schedule, but a lot of people join this business because they love the product and they want to share it with people. Some people join the business because they love the product and they need the money, they want to see some financial freedom. And some people join a business like this because they love the community.

One of the things that I always try to make sure I do for my local team — the ones that are available during the day — is to meet up with them at least once a month. Whether we go to lunch or we do a workout together, people can see us having fun in our local community. And if we do a once a month meetup at night, we’ll meet up at a wine bar, or maybe at a local gym or, my house, and have a really casual introduction to the THRIVE Experience. So we’re going to meet the beach so that we can do a little walk together, hang out and just get some fresh air.

There’s always something to be grateful for along the path of where you want to be, so we start off our day as a family with a devotion every single morning. Every single person in our home has a gratitude journal. We write something that we’re happy and grateful for every day. No matter what kind of day you’re having or how annoyed you are in the morning, when you set your intention, you shift your mind and heart to be focused on the things that are truly important. We all got that from Le-Vel, because our mindset changed. When you start to feel better, and start taking care of your body, and when you have amazing CEOs that are constantly filling your mind with the right vision and the right words, it just totally transforms your life.

Are you inspired? See you at the top, THRIVERS!
