In our society, we are always looking for "what's next," even when we reach a huge goal or accomplishment, sometimes the celebration is brief, and its already planning the next endeavour.
I always talk about being present, and overall feel like I am making a good effort, that must be why I am so exhausted at the end of my day :) However, I have always been driven, especially when I was single, it was always more about adventure rather than money. Marriage and children brings different priorities and dreams, as well as a realization that money is not happiness, but in order to provide your children with the tools they need to become happy independent adults. My amazing Yoga teacher said those exact words, our children do not owe us anything, we brought them into this world, and we owe them 100% to enable them to realize all their hopes and dreams and become who they are meant to be.
In my Jewish culture, ancestors and family stay close, children look after their parents, because they want to, and because it is one of the foundations, honor your mother and father. So it's not like the children owe anything to the parents, I really believe that respect is earned no matter who you are, I would go to the end of the earth for my parents for everything they have done, and are still doing for me. The word that describes it all is completely "unconditional love."
I love my balance, but I love extremes as well, one of my favorite quotes is:
The best things in life are free, and the second best are expensive.
I have always known one day I will have a private jet, simply for travel. I have worked on cruise ships mostly for the adventure of it, and have travelled all over the USA as well abroad. I also firmly believe that it is important to be happy in your life, listen to your gut, and money would not make it better unless it was already wonderful. In saying that, at this point of my life money is the only thing missing, but I am exactly where I want to be to build it my way.
On one hand when I see people being successful, especially in my Herbalife business, the competitive side of me knows I am a hard worker and if I just do exactly what the training instructs, I can get there too. Then life happens, my priority is my community and my family, and I see things moving forward, just at a slower pace then everyone else, and I am OK with that. That is where I have to compare and see that many of my fellow coaches are single, in their 20's, athletes, and this is their 100%. There are other coaches that have families as well, and anything is possible, but just like anything in life, everyone has to find the right fit for them.
Coming up October 18-21 is EXTRAVAGANZA, our annual grand event, where we get trained by UCLA doctors and our CEO explains exactly why our company is in the top 5 of the NYSE, and how the Wellness industry is the only one that hasn't been affected by the economy. Everyone is looking for preventive maintenance, investing in gyms, health food, nutrition programs. Also our aging population and hardships in the economy is making people take a chance on something new.
Are you ready to take the chance? Join me for an event that may change your life, it changed mine.
