It only takes one to make a start...

Each month begins with the number one. It only takes a spark to get a fire going. It takes one step in the right direction to make something happen. I'm looking forwards to a positive November.
As much as I wanted to stay in bed and sleep this morning, I got up and got ready for work - letting the dogs out, taking my shower and getting out the door as close to on time as possible...As I drove to work I was cut off by a big yellow bus who didn't understand the concept of a stop sign or the safety of children but thankfully it didn't cause an accident. I experienced a day that was mostly positive and then got the best news - I had finally signed a coach for my Beachbody business!

I had signed up back at the end of April partly as a favor to my old roommate from Disney (who would've thought 10 years ago when we both arrived at the Disney College Program property, Chatham that we would be put together and keep in touch this whole time?!) and partly as a kick in the butt to myself to get my lazy but in gear and motivate me to workout and try to lose weight.

Like I said in my last post - it is a lifetime journey - and so is my journey with weight loss and working out. My family has never been the ultimate workout fiends and we know that if we do not exercise like we should, the weight will come on and we'll have a hard time taking it off - but then its the internal fight of what to eat and what not to eat. That is the focus-by finding like-minded people who desire to workout and eat heathier, I eventually will become the person I was meant to be - the way God created me.

As I close out this night, I think about how cool it would be if I signed one coach a day for a month - think about how that would totally change my business. One of my goals is to have over $26,000 of student loans paid off by July 2011. Some will say that I won't make it but I believe that if I apply myself to my businesses (Beachbody, Lia Sophia, Rovia/WorldVentures) then I will make money and have that and other debts paid off and have the money for Geoff and I to enjoy our house remodeled the way we want it to be.

Life is a journey that we take like a race - one step at a time, one breath in-one breath out - helping one another.
