2. What inspired you to start doing your own business venture?

In October of 2011, I was suddenly fired from my job. It didn’t come as a surprise because I was disenchanted and no longer interested in the industry that I had worked in for 10 years. I didn’t have any backup plans and my income stopped abruptly.

I knew I had something more to give and I wanted more than just a six-figure salary and 3 weeks’ vacation. But I didn’t know what I wanted to do or where my next source of income was going to come from. As this began to sink in, I realized that I was going to take on a huge challenge if I was going to build my own business and continue supporting my family.

On the recommendation of a friend, I uttered this prayer “Spirit I want to be doing something that inspires me where I can be with my family as much as I want – guide me and show me the way.” The very next day I received a call from my friend’s father, Ken Graham, and he pitched me on a business opportunity.

As I sat there on the phone, I thought to myself, “could this be the answer to my prayers.” I decided to trust in perfect timing and took a leap of faith.

Over the course of 6 months, I worked on building a network marketing business. I was constantly struggling trying to find open-minded and willing people, out late at meetings and traveling.

Then, while traveling to Salt Lake City, I manifested a chance meeting with Dave Blanchard, CEO of Og Mandino Company. After getting to know each other a bit, he suggested something that I would have never considered. He said that “I would make a good coach.”

I returned home with a newfound inspiration for becoming a coach. Then, I manifested a conversation with Bob Proctor, personal development guru, and contributor to the hit movie The Secret.

He again reaffirmed that I would make a great coach. The only problem I had was justifying investing $20,000 to learn what Bob knew about the power of the subconscious mind and how to build a coaching business. It was totally illogical. But as you can guess, I went against my critical counter-intuitive mind and invested in my education and growth.

But my decision began to take its toll. My health and relationships started to falter. As my focus on business increased, I stopped exercising and ignored my family and friends. I ate more food and began to gain weight and expressed a lot of anger and frustration to my family.

I eventually ended up suffering from physical pain and alienated myself from family and
friends.

Thankfully, I wasn’t too far gone. But it scared me and got my attention.

I realized that while I had a plan for building my business, I didn’t have a plan for my lifestyle. If something didn’t change, I was going to destroy my relationships, break down or burn out.

I began soul searching for a solution and made a discovery that profoundly changed my view on how I thought the world worked and it even profoundly changed the way in which I operate in it.

I learned that life didn’t have to be this way. I could live my life on purpose and with balance by creating a “Lifestyle Plan.”

As it turns out there’s a pattern. And if you look deep enough at the happiest people, you
will find patterns, you will find that they have a system they follow for creating and
managing their lifestyle.

forest near a lake or on a beach.

Otherwise, I would bring an indestructible inflatable raft, a purification/filtration system for converting salt water into drinking water and 4 weeks or non-perishable food.

Persistent, consistent, focused, diligent, and committed.
