Right, all of you know how rough the last few weeks have been for me. I seriously started making “plans” and was “preparing” my family and friends. I spoke to the Community Mental Health Team and advised of my plans and they said they would call me every day to see how I was doing. Till today, I have heard nothing from them.
Then, all of the sudden, things changed. A year ago I started a Network Marketing business, since I believe in the concept and have seen it works. On Saturday 3 September was the Christmas Showcase (I know! Christmas in September!!!). I must say, it was absolutely amazing. The positive vibe, the laughter, the dreams flowing in a place full with over 3,000 people was just amazing. Lots of speakers within the business and the guest speaker was Darren Hardy, who I absolutely admire for all the concepts and philosophies he teaches. This particular company also promotes as an incentive a 5 Star holiday completely paid to different destinations around the world. When I joined last year the destination to aim for was New York, but to be honest, it was not really inspiring for me. Next year the destination is Miami! Now that is something to work hard and look forward to.
They are lining up various events, including staying 5 Star hotel stay at Fontainebleau Hotel, in which most of the rooms have amazing views of the coast line. They are also taking us to the American Airline Arena, where we will be watching all the action there and then meeting some of the Miami Heat players. We will also be going to Bongos Cuban Cafe, which is owned by Gloria Estefan. Now this really excites me, because of all the Latin background and music, which will bring me back home, in some sense. We will also be going to the Everglades and visiting the Gator Park and not forget the Conference and Gala Dinner, packed with everything we need to grow our business.
I think this is what has happened to me and has made me so fired up and focused. Yesterday my car broke down whilst I was dropping some catalogues and instead of going straight down with depression, sadness and desperation, I bounced right back and thought to myself “I will not let the Devil trick me into falling down again”. I am determined to stay where I am, enthusiastic and focused in a goal. This will also bring me a decent income and I will not longer need to claim benefits. It also helps that as one of the criteria for my up-lines to qualify for Miami as well, they need to help one of their team reach a certain level in the pay plan, and they have decided to help me, which is really, really exciting. On helping me, they are helping themselves, and that is what Network Marketing is all about.
So just wanted to report that I am feeling extremely excited about my future and really looking forward to going to Miami next year, which coincidently falls really close to my birthday, so I could also take the chance and celebrate whilst I am there!
I must say though, that ALL of you have helped me tremendously in realising that I am not on my own and that things DO get better.
THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU!!!
