Never Thought I’d Be An Entrepreneur

When I started my own home based network marketing business, I did not know anything about being an entrepreneur.  I was taught to have a job and “climb the corporate ladder”.  One of the things which was always emphasized to me by my mentors was “Kellie, you have to start a Personal Development growth plan“.  I had no idea what that meant. 🙄   I didn’t like reading books, so I definitely never read a “self help” book or if I did, I didn’t know what it was.

The Word “Leader”, Not What I Thought

When I was young and working in the corporate world, I used to think the word “Leader” meant “the Boss”, and I saw it as the person with all of the “power” and authority.  As I climbed the corporate ladder, I soon learned it was not what I thought.  I had more responsibility which meant I had to do “whatever it took” to get the job done, so in the end, I was really the one who worked the hardest and longest hours, and if something went wrong, it was my fault!  I soon realized there was not enough hours in the day and I was making less than my employees to be the “Boss”!  Thank goodness I found the home based business industry.

What Are You Saying To Yourself Everyday?

Have you listened to your subconscious mind which processes about 60,000 thoughts per day?  Our “mind chatter” is running on auto-replay and it’s programming us each day. 😯  This is why we have “habits” and even when we want to change our habits, it can be difficult to change.  We are unaware of the auto-programming which is happening by our subconscious each and everyday.

I remember being in a hotel room flipping through the channels and I saw a program which intrigued me. It was called “A Whole New Mind” by Daniel Pink and I decided to pay a minimal fee to watch it.  I was literally glued to the television set and I watched it more than once!  It was about moving from the Information Age which valued logical, precise left-brained thinking, to the Conceptual Age which values empathy, emotion and artistry.  Daniel said that right-brainers will rule the future.  This was back in 2005, and we had been in the home based business industry at that time for 10 years, however, even we could feel that things were changing, and changing rapidly.

Click, The Movie

I just watched the movie “Click” starring Adam Sandler with my son.  We watched it before, however, this time we talked about having “regrets” in our lives and about missing special moments, past, present, and future.  I was like Adam Sandler’s character, Michael, where all I did was work at the job, trying to “get promoted” to provide for my family.  Fast forward to 1995, and I realized I had missed 8 years of my son’s life, and it was like I had a remote control which when I pressed the fast forward button, showed me the future where my son was now an adult and I had no relationship with him.  I also saw us struggling financially and we were not there for our family.  I knew I had to make a change in 1995, and I feel so blessed today that I found the home based network marketing business industry which totally changed the course of our lives! 😆
