What motivates you to keep going?

“My goals, dreams, and aspirations for the future.” ~ Elle Harper

“When I graduated high school, I went to college … and I hated it. So, I quit. For two years I worked at a couple of different jobs, trying to find my ‘knack,’ but nothing was appealing to me. Then, a friend suggested that I go to beauty school and from there I heard about aesthetics. Eventually, I received my license and I’m so happy! My motivation is remembering where I was, what I’ve been through, and where I’m going. NEVER give up on your dreams or your desire to be happy! ” ~ Juliet Duncan

“My family!” ~ Sydney Powell

“In life in general – love and hope keep me going. In my career – it is the plans for the future and the pride I feel after helping a client.” ~ Brianna Reaves

“Every challenge I face. Why? Because I feel like each challenge only makes me stronger – whether it conquers me or I conquer it. In the end, it is all a growing experience. I learn from my mistakes and from my accomplishments!” ~ McKinnley Sullivan

“The desire to make a difference in the world – that’s what motivates me.” ~ Erma Speigel

“There are times, days … sometimes weeks, when I feel like I just want to quit my job. But, what keeps me going is always remembering that there is someone out there who has it worse than me. Sure I might be tired, sure I might feel underappreciated, but I’m alive and I’m healthy and that is truly what is important!” ~ Lucy Rearden

“The beautiful thing about being an aesthetician and working in the beauty industry is that there are a multitude of opportunities to make someone happy. For example: A female client who has been having trouble with her dry skin – I helped her by creating a new at-home regimen; A teenage client who had a bad case of acne – I helped clear up his skin; A male client with a horrible case of razor burn – I suggested a new product … and it worked. All happy, loyal clients; that’s what keeps me motivated!” ~ Pamela Jeschonek
