I cannot wait for the release of my website mentalimagefitness.com to go live
so that I can share with you all the success stories
of the many lives M.I. Team is changing!! :)
In just the last two weeks I have been faced with a lot of challenges, choices,
and feelings of empowerment and failure. I know what my dream is, and I have
been defining it daily for the last 4-5years.
Recently, I am sad to say I have let some people nearly break me,
discourage me, and bring to the point of nearly walking away from my dream
to become "normal" in their eyes. I perceived their normal to be
getting a full-time job and wearing clothing that isn't workout attire.
Telling me that what I do on a daily basis is just too hard, or
too much for one person, or it’s not worth it, or that's ridiculous, or
you work too much, or you’re not smart enough, or what happens when you
want to have a family, whatever their opinion on what I am doing is/was
so on and so forth. I nearly let them change my mind and almost let them
redefine my dream.
But with the help of people who do believe in me, I have renewed my self-confidence.
(Even the strong & BOLD need a shoulder to cry on and I have shed many
tears through the years)
I was recently provided with a gift of a very inspiring trip where I met a
lot of amazing individuals.
We all had one
crazy thing in common, we all want to change lives in one way or another.
I surrounded by like-minded individuals who were almost all entrepreneur's and
fitness nuts, and there I was able to really discover myself even further. The
trip was very empowering and I was able to bring that empowerment into many
different aspects of my life in a short amount of time strengthening
friendships, relationships, and DREAMS!
Being an entrepreneur takes guts, it takes a work ethic unlike any average
person. It takes multiple failures and public embarrassments, it takes belief
and passion, it takes love and support, and ultimately it takes a DREAM! I am
fortunate enough that my dream is small enough to share with others who relate
to it and live it, yet big enough to change the world, even if it is one life
at a time!
I encourage you all to believe in your dream and no matter how many disappointments
big or small, persevere!
I believe there
are big things out there for each and every one of us- don’t be afraid to find
it and fight for it!
As long as I am influencing lives- even if it’s one at a time in a positive
way, I am changing the world! :)
