The first time I saw the word “fabulosity” I had no idea what it meant. Now everyone has heard of the words fabulous and luminosity. I mean, those two are household gems. I was surfing online when my eyes scanned across “fabulosity” for the first time. It was underneath a picture of the gorgeous and talented Kimora Lee Simmons. I was hooked. I had to know more. So I did some research and found this book:
Fabulosity: What it is and How to Get It.
I bought the book, read it in one sitting and thought “Man, I’m not sure what to do with the advice I just read.” Kimora talks about looking good, feeling great, keeping our doc appointments and a host of other things. I just wasn’t sure if I had missed some secret code behind her words or what. But I felt kind of flat after reading the book. Β I’m a single mom and there are so many of these self help books geared towards single women. And then, I decided to take Kimora’s advice, to set a goal no matter how crazy it might seem at the time and work towards achieving it. So I wrote a check for a million bucks out to myself (and no, I’m nowhere close to being ready to cash it…lol) and placed it inside my bag of important documents and goodies, aka homeowner’s insurance files. That was six years ago. Since then, I’ve been on a roll. I finished my Bachelors in Business Management. I completed an MFA in Creative Writing, published several Young Adult, Fantasy and Romance novels that have sold close to 100,000 copies to date. And now, I’ve partnered with some really great folks around the world so I can bring this lifestyle blogazine to other women out there who might feel as though the world won’t allow them to dream, let alone cash a check for a ridiculously HUGE amount of money. Well, don’t let anyone tell you what you cannot do. Instead, take some advice from my little friend to the left. An agent of fabulosity is someone who believes in the greater good. She’s positive and kind to others, even though she might not always receive the same treatment in return. That’s where her the agent of fabulosity shines best. In showing the world that she is a first class act no matter how difficult things may become. Thank you Kimora Lee for creating this fantastic new concept. Now head on out into the world today ladies and gents (this applies to you too) and put your strong face on!

Thank you so much! It’s nice to meet you too. π
I agree. I told my daughters. Respect yourself and have class. Two kind of woman. One, you take to the hotel and one, you take home to mama. Thank you for your outstanding blog.
That’s exactly right John! I bet you have great daughters. Thanks for being such an inspiration. π
Sometime daughters listen. They are good girls. Gave me three grandchildren already. Keeping me young.
That’s so good to hear John. I don’t have any grandkids yet, but I’m looking forward to the day when I do. π
Do you mind if I quote a few of your articles as long as I
provide credit and sources back to your site?
My website is in the exact same niche as yours and my visitors
would certainly benefit from a lot of the information you present here.
Please let me know if this ok with you. Thanks!
Hi Coco,
I don’t mind as long as you link back to this website. I try and do the same for the bloggers I choose to feature on LWBF as well. Be sure and leave your website address so I can visit yours too.
Congrats on the degree and publishing! I started my fashion and body positivity blog almost a year ago. Every new viewer or post makes me feel like an agent of fabulosity!
Thank you Lei. You are fabulous and gorgeous! And I’m sure the folks who stop by can see those qualities in you. Keep doing your thing, and thank you for stopping by and commenting. π
I think everyone could learn a little bit from your own experience.
Incredible story! You should feel so proud of yourself for what you have accomplished. This story is so inspiring and has motivated me to work hard to accomplish my goals, just as you did. I don’t know if you believe in the law of attraction, or if you have even heard of it, but I highly recommend reading The Secret, or watching the movie. It is an excellent book and I have found what it says to be true. I definitely recommend it.
Thank you Maddie. I have read the Secret and watched the movie. Both rely heavily on the concept of visualizing your dreams which I can testify holds plenty of truth.
Love this sentence: “In showing the world that she is a first class act no matter how difficult things may become.” Great post and I enjoyed reading it today! π
Take care and keep in touch!
