Well, 2010 is here...Another decade. Where does it all go. Well, we worked on some goals for 2010 and getting pretty excited. Tomorrow, Tuesday February 5th MonaVie will have a HUGE 2010 Kick-off Webcast at 7pm MST. A lot of the leaders will be having webcast parties, including ourselves. It will be a fun time with positive people who are looking to make 2010 a great year. No, not just make sure they keep their W-2 job (if they have one), but to actually go out and follow their dreams.
My parents are 85/86. They lived through tough times. As a child my father had to be sent to his uncles house as his parents could not afford to take care of him for a while. I couldn't even imagine that. Wow. The more i think of it, it really makes me appreciate the good things in my life. Then fast-forward to my youth and you can understand how i was brought up. I was taught to get a good job with good benefits and stay until retirement. That is what i did. I eventually landed a State of California job and worked on a few promotions with the goal to work until i was 50 or 55. I know in today's environment, most would say "I would love that". Yes it was a good thing. But its a little weird too. Even though, it was a good job with good benefits, it was a harsh place to work. A maximum security forensic mental health facility. A mouth full i know.
The thing is that even with all that, I still had bigger dreams that would never be fulfilled unless i did more. I wouldn't be able to afford the "real" house i wanted, or the kind of cars i wanted, etc...but more importantly it would supply me with money to make a difference in the world. I couldn't give away hundreds or thousands of dollars a day, week or month. It also would buy my the most important thing...Time..Time Freedom to do what i wanted, where i wanted. I still would have to ask to go to my child's school performances. I still would have to make sure things would be OK at work if i took off some time due to a death or sickness in the family.
The reality is, we give our employers too much power in our lives. Don't you think? Now, don't get me wrong it is important to have incomes. Taking care of your family is crucial, yes. But LIFE is worth living. Not living OK, or living comfortably, but to the level that makes no regrets when you are on your last breath. You did everything you could to have the best memories. That's what it is about...Making Memories.
With this MonaVie opportunity, I have met some amazing people, and made the best friends in my life. I have traveled to places i would not normally see, and there will be many more. I have been in many living rooms of people who want a better life and are willing to do something about it. I am living. I know God is proud, but is still asking for more. To receive a phone call or email from someone who is excited about their first MonaVie Purple Card deposit, or how they are able to now stay home with their child instead of reporting to a job, or how they were able to buy a new car or home...that is the reward...more then the money i make, the cars I will get for free, the free trips, etc...its about helping people make a better life for themselves.
MonaVie is more than just juice. If you get that, you will get it. Help others by being a blessing in their lives, and you will be blessed in return.
