What a beautiful Saturday morning! Just finished cleaning up the house a bit. Next on the agenda is doing some more shopping for my trip next weekend...my 7-day Mediterranean Cruise compliments of my Soul Purpose business. I am off-the-chain excited about the adventure and being able to check this off my "bucket list" but as I thought of it, I had a sudden pang of sadness. It took me by surprise and I thought...what's that all about???
It's about all of my business partners who will not be on the ship with me! We started the journey together...saw and embraced the vision of Soul Purpose. We had the same visions of success and the thrill of being the first to introduce Soul Purpose in our local markets. Yet, so many are not making consistent progress in growing their business. That does sadden me. But I can only let it sadden me for a moment and use it to grow. As my friend (CEO of Soul Purpose), Nadine Thompson always says, "What is the lesson I'm supposed to learn from this?"
The lesson is...I don't have control over what other people do or don't do. I can only control what I do. This is such a brilliant opportunity and it's hard for me to understand how anyone can see it but not take advantage of it. I know many of us have prayed for being able to live a debt-free life or having our own business or being able to empower others. But recognizing the blessing to be FIRST with a ground floor opportunity with the wonderful natural products we have and the ability to make outrageous money, that's a very individual thing. I wish everyone could get it but that's just not realistic.
The outcome..I can just continue to pray that the RIGHT people who are READY to be EMPOWERED will come along. That they will be COACHABLE, ACTION-ORIENTED and PASSIONATE! And when they show up, I'll be ready to coach, train and mentor...that's what I can do.
But the question is what blessing are you sitting on? Are you moving forward to do your part to take the blessing to it's highest heights? Yesterday is gone, tomorrow is not promised. Get busy, it's what you do this moment that counts!
With thoughts from the heart,
