I am back from my little adventure to Yakima, Washington. I attended "Hometown Seminar" with my actual Unit. It was a beautiful drive and only took 2.5 hours. My cow and sock monkey enjoyed the ride too.
I blasted the music and opened the windows and sang at the top of my lungs. I think I offended a few farm animals, but I am pretty sure none of the humans heard me, at least I pray they didn't. I arrived at the hotel around 1:30pm and was able to check in right away since my room was empty. My room had a little deck that over looked the river and court yard. It was very beautiful and peaceful. Even though it was in the 100s there, I opened the door so I could hear the sounds of the running river. After I unpacked all my belongings I freshened up and headed down to dinner. I met up with my Sales Director and a few other team members and helped them bring their luggage up to the room. Then we all went back down to eat and chatted.
After dinner, we met in the Court Yard to discuss our visions and who we are. It was an eye opener for me. This class was being ran by Jennifer Snyder (one of the other Sales Directors in the area). It was her words that made me have an AHA moment and that moment carried me through the weekend. "Are you living in your reality or are you living in your vision?" Your reality contains self doubt, limitations, obstacles, constant hassle and stress of everyday life. Your vision is who you are going to become, how you will get there, and your life as it will be. So do yourself a favor and close your eyes and dream of the success in your life. Where will you be when you consider yourself successful? Visualize it. No, seriously do this.

Okay, so what did you visualize? Me, I visualized debuting on the Seminar Stage in 2013 as a Sales Director. Then Jennifer told everyone to close their eyes again but only this time DREAM BIGGER! No matter how silly it may seem or unrealistic dream it. When you think you have it, dream bigger still. I visualized going on the Elite NSD trips and belonging to the Inner Circle of Sales. Then her voice haunted me . . . . Jennifer asked "Now why didn't you dream that to begin with?" The ONLY person that can limit you is YOU. You put the cap on your dreams with the every day reality of life and we lose track of our dreams.
It is crazy the way one persons words can affect you to the point where that is all you think about for days. But it has. Those words were spoken Friday night and here it is almost midnight on Monday night and those words still consume me.
So live in your vision and always remember to dream bigger <3
