30 Days of Hustle Day 9: Hustler Unrest
Jeniro's
Day 9
Today Jon tells us to cut our coal in half, expecting "Hustler Unrest". He differentiates between be good goals and get better goals, advocating for the latter. Reducing the goal, according to Acuff, will propel you into April instead of failing and quitting. So what's half of double? I guess now I want to increase my Facebook followers by 50% instead of 100%!

30 Days of Hustle Day 8: See Yourself
Jeniro's
Day8
Vision time! Even though I'm a creative person, vision boards never really helped me. I get my inspiration from within. Even when I shop. I imagine what I want and then go find it; this is why it takes me so long to shop for anything. I may go to the store and leave with nothing because they didn't sell what I had in my head.
All that to say, vision boards can't inspire me. By the time I find a picture of what I want to see, I will have wasted so much time. For people like me, Jon had this suggestion:
Write that article as if your goal already been realized. Think 100-250 words for length.
ByJRochelle doubles its Facebook followers in 30 days by Cultivating Relationships!Through her company, ByJRochelle, she seeks to help others get their message across. Unfortunately not many people knew about her company’s capabilities, so she set out to double her Facebook followers in 30 days, and she did! In addition to working in communication she consistently connects with people through service because she believes that if she can help, the she should help. Consequently she developed a strategy to get the word out about the media services offered through ByJRochelle so that she could help others tell the world about their services. We asked Jeanicia to share her strategy, but she says that her strategy may not work for others so she didn’t want to jade anyone’s perspective leading them to believe that if they do X then Y will happen. What she did say was important is that groups work. Whatever strategy that you decide to implement should involve as many people as possible. These people should be individuals who you plan on cultivating long-lasting relationships with because in the end good business is all about good relationships.
This article is totally fictional and part of my 30 Day Hustle Assignment but you can help me make it a reality by clicking over to the ByJRochelle Facebook page and liking my company!
Here's my "Vision Board"

30 Days of Hustle Day: 7
Jeniro's
Day 7
This day is all about WHO! Jon says that having a helper makes it easier to accomplish a goal. This person will play the role of my accountability partner; he/she will call me on my excuses, celebrate my successes, and track progress with me! Jon warns against choosing a BFF or spouse to avoid undue pressure. So today I pick who.
I like the idea of picking a "who" but I don't know if there is a person other than a BFF or spouse who will care as much about my goal. I started my business 3 years ago and most of the "random" people in my life don't seem to care much about how things go with my company or me. I have one person in mind with whom I have been friends with since 2008.I hope that this will help!

Day 6
Those these first few challenges focus on preparing for goals Jon made it clear that the hustle goes on! I constantly work on increasing the ByJRochelle Facebook page engagement and I started working on ways to specifically double my facebook followers on Day 1. These first few steps will help "refine the method". With that said, today we need to establish the WHERE!
Jon references a study by Peter Gollwitzer from the University of Konstanz, Germany, where researchers asked two groups of students to work on essays over the holiday break. They instructed one group to write down when and where they would work on the essays. The other group received no instruction. At the end of the experiment, 32 percent of the students who did not make a plan failed. Twice as many who made a plan succeeded.
Jon wants us to specifically decide where to work on this goal. We need to say “My home office in the red chair" not simply "My home”. I'd tell you specifically where I will work, but I don't want to encourage stalkers! So until later!

30 Days of Hustle: Day 5
Jeniro's
Day 5
Today’s challenge is Macro and Micro goals. Micro goals focus on what time and macro goals focus on what day. I generally make Macro goals all the time but I have never made micro goals for myself. In true Jeniro-style, I'm creating a graphic calendar. Sure, writing it would be faster but my way is more fun.Tuesday, March 4, 2014
30 Days of Hustle: Day 4
Jeniro's
Day 4
Today’s challenge is about fun. Jon is challenging us to add an element of fun to my goal. As much as I love fun, the Day 4 challenge really got me stuck. I googled "fun ways to increase facebook followers" while rendering a video for Escape From Poverty (because rendering seems endless). The top hit went to 4 Fun Ways to Improve Your Facebook Engagement By Cas McCullough. He suggests 4 games to engage followers. I like the concept. I'll have to think of a game that will suit ByJRochelle and me! I'd like for the game to include pictures. Monday, March 3, 2014
30 Days of Hustle: Day 3
Jeniro's
Day 3
"If you want to get something done, don’t just trust your hard work, trust your HOW work too." Today’s assignment is to write down three answers to this question: HOW will you accomplish your goal?" I won't share those answers here, but be sure to click here so that you can like the ByJRochelle Facebook page to experience the answers for yourself.30 Days of Hustle: Day 1
Jeniro's
Day 1
A week or so ago, I was flipping through Instagram ( Click here to follow me or my company) and I came across a post from Jon Acuff inviting his followers to the 30 Days of Hustle. I was introduced to Jon Acuff through a friend who fashioned her own "challenge", Dream JumpStart, based on his book Start.
I still don't know all the details but this is Day 1; this is actually day 3 I am only just realizing that he started sending e-mails so I'm playing catch up! I'm supposed write one personal goal and post it somewhere that I will see it. My plan is to post it on my social media because I look at my own pictures and blogs the most; I'm also a graphic designer so why not create something visually cool for my own goal right?

Break Out
I acted in a television commercial today. The commercial will seek to raise awareness about Joel Osteen's book, Break Out.
Break Out discusses how God Created us to leave our marks on our generations and not just get by with average, unrewarding or unfulfilling lives. God created us to leave our marks on our generations. This book gives five ways to go beyond our barriers and live extraordinary lives.
I'm not sure that any book can give 5 ways to go beyond my barriers. Every time I talk to anyone about what I can do to be successful usually, everything that they tell me is circumstantial and good luck. But Joel Osteen is very encouraging. He has a way of saying things that encourages me to want to try anyway. So even though I thing it's all luck, I say if it's all luck, then why not try. It may not work, but what if it does. It's funny how most people are eager to believe the worse when there is an equal opportunity that the best can happen.
Either way, I had fun today. I can't wait to see myself and my friends in the commercial. They shot the commercial with a Canon C300 and the videographers seemed to be excited about that. All of the extras in my scene are members of Lakewood Church's drama team. Many of us are working actors, some of us act on the side. I feel so honored to be a part of the drama team and I'm believing that we will all break out soon. :-)

I Serve a Big God!!!
Louis Giglio @ Lakewood Church
Psalm 19:1-2 The heavens declare the glory of Day unto day utters speech, And night unto night reveals knowledge.
The sky is a billboard for the greatness of God.
*I LIKE THE MSG VERSION
Psalm 19:1-2 God's glory is on tour in the skies, God-craft on exhibit across the horizon. Madame Day holds classes every morning, Professor Night lectures each evening. Madame Day holds classes every morning, Professor Night lectures each evening.
• God spoke the UNIVERSE into existence so I need to upsize my prayers.
• Isaiah 40:25-26 To whom then will you liken Me, Or to whom shall I be equal? says the Holy One. Lift up your eyes on high, And see who has created these things, Who brings out their host by number; He calls them all by name, By the greatness of His might And the strength of His power; Not one is missing.
• 1 light year=9.4605284x10^15 meters.
• God spoke light into existence 299792458 m/s…that's fast.
• It suddenly struck me that that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye and my thumb blotted out the planet earth. I didn't feel like a giant. I felt very, ery small.
-Neil Armstrong
…sin makes you feel bigger than you are but when you realize how small you are you see how big God is.
• Psalm 8:4-5 What is man, that thou art mindful of him? and the son of man, that thou visitest him? For thou hast made him a little lower than the angels, and hast crowned him with glory and honour.
• Psalm 103:8-12 The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever. He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.
***************************
Victoria Osteen's Talk
Joshua 24:14-15 Now therefore, fear the Lord, serve Him in sincerity and in truth, and put away the gods which your fathers served on the other side of the River and in Egypt. Serve the Lord! And if it seems evil to you to serve the Lord, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.
Choose this day what my attitude is going to be, choose what I'm going do, choose what I'm going to say...Jesus already did the work for us.

The Titantic Church
Bishop Dan Goodman @ Church of the Living God Temple °1
• A lot of people lose their lives who didn't have to.
• Jesus used the word to defeat the enemy, so we should too.
1. Keep my relationship with God in tact.
• Study his word.
• Obey his word.
• Pray his word
* 2 Timothy 3:16-17 All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, 17 so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
2. Be purpose driven!
• Once you find your purpose, you begin to walk in it.
• Proverbs 3:5-6 Trust in the lord with all your heartand lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him,and he will make your paths straight.
• 2 Chronicles 7:14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.
3. Love people.
• Deal with them honestly, fairly, and with service.
BONUS
>Little Faith
Mark 9:24 Immediately the boy's father exclaimed, "I do believe; help me overcome my unbelief!"
• Basic Faith
>Great Faith
Matthew 9:20-22 ...Jesus turned and saw her. "Take heart, daughter," he said, "your faith has healed you." And the woman was healed at that moment.
• Faith after a looooong time.
>Perfect Faith
Daniel 3:16 Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego replied to him, "King Nebuchadnezzar, we do not need to defend ourselves before you in this matter. 17 If we are thrown into the blazing furnace, the God we serve is able to deliver us from it, and he will deliver us from Your Majesty's hand.
• Faith beyond circumstances.

Let It (The Silent Frustration) Go
T.D. Jakes @ Lakewood Church
Luke 15:11-32
25 "Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 27 'Your brother has come,' he replied, 'and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.' 28 "The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. 29 But he answered his father, 'Look! All these years I've been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!' 31 "'My son,' the father said, 'you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. 32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.'"
• Imagine looking at this family from the neighbor's perspective.
They were obviously doing well. Even though everything looks good you don't know know what's going on in the inside.
• We've lost a little of that facade and the "last frontier" is what's going on in our head.
• The prodigal son gets all the attention and no one says anything about the son who is doing good.
• v.26 You can tell there hadn't been a party in a while because the "good son" said, "what's going on."
• v.28 The older brother became angry but he was already frustrated. He probably had to work harder. The dad was probably always saying "i wonder when brother is coming home" and etc...All the while he's thinking I'm here being faithful and working hard, can you be happy that I'm here.
• Sometimes it's hard to determine the makeup from the man.
• v.28 when the brother went out, the father went after him...he same father who celebrated the one who came home. The Lord says, "Before you miss my party, I'm coming out to get you."
• God is to wise to allow my happiness be predicated on someone else's behavior.
• It's time to let go of the silent frustration.

LEVEL56: WORSHIP (Week 2)
John 4:23-24 23 But the time is coming-it has, in fact, come-when what you're called will not matter and where you go to worship will not matter. God is sheer being itself-Spirit. Those who worship him must do it out of their very being, their spirits, their true selves, in adoration."
Worship reflects our relationship with God.
Worship us not about me.
Leave it at the alter.

It's Under Your Feet
Joel Osteen
• How you see your difficulties determines how you react to it.
• The first place that I lose the battle is in my mind.
1 Corinthians 15:25 For Christ must reign until he humbles all his enemies beneath his feet.
Psalm 59:10 In his unfailing love, my God will stand with me.He will let me look down in triumph on all my enemies.
Nehemiah 8:10 And Nehemiah continued, "Go and celebrate with a feast of rich foods and sweet drinks, and share gifts of food with people who have nothing prepared. This is a sacred day before our Lord. Don't be dejected and sad, for the joy of the LORD is your strength!"
• Joy is an emotion but it creates something physical.
2 Samuel 22:40 You have armed me with strength for the battle;you have subdued my enemies under my feet.
Ephesians 6:11 Put on all of God's armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies of the devil. [v.11-20]
• I'm armed and dangerous
Psalm 110:1 The LORD said to my Lord,"Sit in the place of honor at my right handuntil I humble your enemies,making them a footstool under your feet."
• When something is a footstool, it serves you and makes your life easier.
Psalm 23:5 You prepare a feast for mein the presence of my enemies.You honor me by anointing my head with oil.My cup overflows with blessings.
• The people who tried to push you down will see you when you reach the next level.
• Peace is a position of power.
• God knows how to apply pressure.
Isaiah 54:17 But in that coming dayno weapon turned against you will succeed.You will silence every voiceraised up to accuse you.These benefits are enjoyed by the servants of the LORD;their vindication will come from me.I, the LORD, have spoken! (NLT)
• Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord. (KJV)• Just because a problem forms doesn't mean it has to prosper.
• God will vindicate me.
Ramiro was born with no ears and the doctors gave his parents a grim prognoses. The problem had formed, but they saw it as under their feet!

Set the Tone
I just want to take this time out to say that I have the BEST husband ever. He made me breakfast in bed: homemade waffles, scrambled eggs, sausage, and coffee! This simple act of service makes me think that the morning is a good time to do something nice for someone. In the morning, people haven't had a chance to offend you so you can go all out and set the tone for the rest of the day!

Office Space
Once you enter the library there is a cafe style sitting area where you can have a snack before you dive into work or take a lunch break once you start. The large window makes this an ideal seating area for anyone waiting on a ride.
Along the walls in front of each large window is a table near an electrical outlet that has 4 sockets. There is sufficient room for your Mac, your iPad, your iPhone, all of your notes, your research materials, your study/business partner, and ladies your purse!
Needless to say, I had a pleasantly productive day at Looscan. I cleared my to-do list and the time flew by! If you are looking for a surrogate office try out this great locale!
