Gifts of destiny

Before Oriflame entered my life I thought I was clear about my professional goals – teaching and scientific work. At the time, I was combining work with caring for our three children, who were 2, 4 and 11 years old then. I joined Oriflame with the idea of learning more about cosmetics and how to take better care of myself.

 But with the help of my husband, I soon saw in Oriflame the prospect of a better career. We anticipated a more interesting, more beautiful and financially secure life for our family. And we weren’t deluding ourselves.

Over the past 11 years our standard of living has vastly improved. We appreciate this but don’t think of it as happiness. Happiness is the road we’ve walked in reaching this goal, the pleasure of doing things –
the people we’ve met, the different levels of training, the presentations, demonstrations and our development as managers and leaders.

 The change is deep within us. We now take difficulties in our stride, seeing them as gifts of destiny rather than obstacles; because as we surmount them, we are getting better and better all the time. And what we learn makes us more skilled in the most important and hardest profession of all – being human. Climbing the ladder of the Oriflame Success Plan, we have become better parents, better friends and better partners all at the same time.

As we see it, Oriflame is a school about life. The result is neither a diploma nor a medal. It is something far more important: a team of followers, beloved as a child. I am a true Libra and have a painful need for harmony – harmony with myself, with my relatives, my team and the leaders in Oriflame.

Today I dream of finding greater harmony and balance in my personal and professional lives; I’m sure that this will
make me even happier.

To those who want to start a career with Oriflame, the most important thing is a passionate desire to succeed. From this point on, the most important ability is to establish trust in every aspect – with customers, Consultants, Leaders, administration and the management team.

Don’t forget that the biggest abyss is the one between knowledge and action. Put everything you learn into practice immediately, analyze the results, be perfect. And be careful with your dreams! Because at Oriflame dreams come true!
