Just Start. Just Do It.

                                          Just START #Exercising.  No Excuses.  No Procrastinating.  Just START.  www.EyemarkRealty.com:
As I write this post, this is an area that I too struggle with. Charting uncharted waters is always a daunting task especially when you have no idea where it will lead you or what exactly you are looking for in the current moment. I say to you friends ' just start!' Not only start, but start TODAY! Tomorrow was never promised to you. Live in the NOW. What will you do to help your future self? Do NOT allow anyone to tell you that you can't when you can. Gain skills,get stronger, create, give.Whatever it is you wanted to start now. Start by writing it down, setting a goal,taking baby steps then celebrating the milestones.

I've posted the video below that has inspired me to do better. So I pose the question to you. What does amazing look like to you?

RoTravels: Things to do Martinique

I recently went to Martinique because I mean, why not?! The flight was dirt cheap $250 round trip through Norweign airlines. Below are some pictures and things that we did and some tidbits of advice. Martinique is a french- speaking island so I highly recommend brushing up on basics.I was able to get by using my barely non existent french, but I am also very good at understanding french just not speaking. In times where you do not know the language use gestures and body language. It works just as well! Do not allow language barriers to deter you from traveling! The weather and beaches were very beautiful and not super populated. I've included some hotels and things to do below!



Key phrases (I've listed pronunciations based off how I would explain it someone else, hope that is easier)
