Fast forward 3 months from the time I went through the goals and objectives exercise.
I was at a party for a healthy supplements company and was immediately drawn to the products and thought it was a great fit with the food company I was representing. So I signed up then and there acquiring 4 customers with me. I was excited and energized with what I had seen from this company. The support and online presence is nothing like I have experienced with a direct selling company before.
As energized as I was, I was fearful to tell my spouse. Now that I look back on it, I realize it was because I failed to analyze the decision and to see how it fit with my why and why criteria. I also did not consult with my spouse first. The whole purpose of doing the exercise was to give me a guideline and help me stay focused and at the first chance, I threw it out the window.
If you learn anything from me, learn that in order to be successful, you must use the tools, not just buy them or compile them.
At this point, I realize that in my effort to make my life more balanced and free up my time for my family, I may have pushed it over the edge. I believe I am in a transition as I define what truly matters to me and focusing on what's important.
Through my direct sales company, I got to meet Lisa Woodruff of Organize365.com. Lisa is a professional organizer and helps women organize their busy lives. That is exactly what I need! I was drawn to Lisa and knew that she was someone I could learn from. I have been to 3 of Lisa's speaking engagement and picked up great tips with each one. I decided to hire her to help me focus all of my activities taking me on my next step. My appointment is set and I look forward to seeing how Lisa can help me.
