About the Book
JOURNAL YOUR WAY TO SUCCESS provides a way to organize your life with intention. Mindful self-care is the key to success at work or at home! It helps individuals prioritize self-care by taking one hour per day to engage in six activities and journaling about their experience, plans, and ideas inspired by these activities. The goal is to become more organized, more successful in your career, stronger physically, and find more balance and peace in both your personal life and career.
The six key activities to participate in each day are the following:
- Quiet Time, where you find 10 minutes in the morning to be quiet, still your mind, and control your stress.
- Goal Setting, where you set goals for the day or for a longer-term, such as a goal for a meeting that day or a more longer term professional or personal goal you want to achieve in the next month, six months, or even a year.
- Gratitude List, helps you focus on the positive things in your life by listing all the great things in your life that you are happy for, this positive attitude can carry you throughout your day.
- Daily Workout, where you move your body in different ways, using whatever type of exercise that best fits you -- anything from exercising at a gym to walking the dog.
- Healthy Eating, where you focus on your diet and intentionally eating more healthy, nutritious food, this is not a diet but a lifestyle with baby steps.
- Important Things to Do Today, where you list the appointments or meetings you have each day, along with details about those appointments and what you want to achieve.
After each activity, there is space to journal what you have learned, and two more pages to write down additional ideas as you think about your experiences. This journal challenges the individual more deeply as the weeks continue with the end goal being more success, balance and happiness in life, but don't stop there, after 12 weeks of progress, most will want to continue the process in another journal.
The ideal result: a happier, healthier, more successful you!

About the Author :
Sandie Troup grew up in Danville, California, where she was the oldest of three girls and is very close to her younger sisters, Linda and Jennifer. Sandie attended the University of Arizona in Tucson, where she received her bachelor's in Business Administration. After she married, she raised three kids, who went to the same high school as she did in Danville. Now her grown children Tyler (who is married to Alexa), Karley, and Lexy, and a granddaughter, Aria, all live in Colorado. Sandie loves to visit them often, and they all enjoy hiking, shopping, getting massages, and dining out together! Sandie moved to Mesa, Arizona in 2017, where she began a new life after getting divorced after 33 years of marriage. Although Sandie lives in Arizona nine months out of the year, she spends summers in Colorado to avoid the heat of the Arizona summers. In 30 years of experience as a Corporate Executive Recruiter and Career Coach, Sandie has helped global organizations manage complex recruitment programs and has hired thousands of qualified candidates. Seven years ago, she started her own business, where she focused primarily on headhunting and career coaching, but now she is redirecting her energy to the Career Coaching side of the business. Sandie recognized that the job search can be a great opportunity for a life transformation if you have the right tools to navigate it and that most struggle with those tools. Sandie's says, "In my program, we go above and beyond the frustrating online applications that recruiters don't read to building strong self-confidence, efficient networking ability, and powerful negotiation skills. The secret of success is rooted in one's beliefs about oneself, and the perfect time to shape it is at a young age." Sandie offers professional guidance and support with the entire employment process. While maintaining her growing business, Sandie also supports an Environmental Health & Safety Consulting firm headquartered in the United Kingdom, where she supports their recruitment program for Professional Services in the West and Gulf Coast. Sandie is passionate about her career but also passionate about her family and living a healthy, balanced life. She enjoys yoga, hiking, working out, reading and spends quality time with her friends. Sandie is extremely involved in her local church where her faith has grown tremendously. She realizes that before she found her faith, she was lost and life never seemed to fall into place, because it was not built on a solid foundation. But now she has found that life is full of joy, passion, and unconditional love.
