Ok, How do you possibly work with your clients when you are SICK SICK SICK?!?!

Today's blog post, though a bit off topic, I think can be appreciated by all.

I just got over the flu, FINALLY feeling human and 100% again! I hadn't been cursed with the flu since age 11 I think? Anyhow, I must say, I am glad I have yet to attain a client roster as of yet, because I don't know how I would be able to work with the flu! I am assuming alot of you more established agents have an assistant, are on sales teams, or somehow have someone who you can count on to back you up should something like this keep you out of commission for a bit (in my case 8 whole days).

Needless to say, this has inspired me to encourage all of us to take care of ourselves when we are well. Such a line of work is going to need us to be as healthy as ready when the time calls for us to go above and beyond for our clients. I am going to share a recipe I found which is to help maintain your immune system. I HIGHLY encourage all of you to research and google various natural remedies and other things that will help keep you well so that you are not u attacked with something that keeps you in bed for several days...

RECIPE FOR IMMUNE-BOOSTING SMOOTHIE:

2 cups of milk (soy or rice beverage)

1 cup of plain non-fat yogurt

1 serving of a multinutrient suppliment

1 frozen banana cut up

1/2 cup of frozen blueberries

1/2 each of your favorite fruit, frozen (eg. organic strawberries, papaya, mango)

1 tbsp of flax oil or 2 tbsp of flaxseedmeal (because fiber steadies the absorption of carbs and therefore contributes to a steadier blood sugar, it's suggested using rich sources of fiber, such as flaxseed meal-ground flaxseeds containing the oil and the fiber)

3 ounces of tofu

10 mg of zinc

100 mcg. selenium

50-100 iu of vitamin E

1 serving soy isolate powder (optional)

2 tbsp peanutbutter (optional)

Combine all ingredients until smooth, serve immediately while the mixture still has a bubbly milkshake like consistency
