I just hit the Jackpot...

Again! I was following some links from LFT Hub and ran into this. It's a link to a blog by Clay! I think I'm going to read one or two entries a day as part of my "Improve Yourself" time.

A quick story...

I was at work today (In-N-Out) and was wiping a table for an older man when he asked me, "Would you consider yourself a professional?"

I replied by asking, "A professional at what?"

"Being a worker here."

"Yeah, I guess."

"Have you made a million dollars yet?"

"Unfortunately, no."

"Then they aren't paying you enough for being a professional..."

This random conversation caught me so off guard and was so applicable to my life right now that I know it was nothing short of fate. Network marketing, and specifically ACN, is the vehicle that can take me to "Professional" status, and RiTraining is paving the way.

I love you all and am so grateful for your love and support.

A quote

"We are born helpless. As soon as we are fully conscious we discover loneliness. We need others physically, emotionally, intellectually; we need them if we are to know anything, even ourselves."

- C.S. Lewis

Traveler's Gift

"Those who are critical of my goals & dreams simply do not understand the higher purpose to which I have been called. Therefore, their scorn does not affect my attitude or action. I forgive their lack of vision and I forge ahead. I now know that criticism is part of the price paid for leaping past mediocrity. I will greet the day with a forgiving spirit."

Andy Andrews, The Travelers Gift

*This book is amazing, and packed full of truths, like this.

Security

I am in the middle of reading "Nephi's Isaiah" by Denver Snuffer, and I wanted to share a quote and the thoughts it brought to my mind.

"We are corrupt in our minds, and therefore lack the faith to worship God in the way he would approve. He would like us to progress from "grace to grace" until we receive a "fullness" of light and truth." (see D&C 93: 12-20)

*Becoming a Zion person involves moving from grace to grace. I feel a burning desire to be taught by the spirit how to worship in all the ways that our Father approves. And then to be faithfully obedient to this knowledge.

"There is almost no corner of the earth where the productivity of modern commerce could not feed the poor, clothe the naked, and house the unsheltered. Yet we have the cold, hungry and naked in all those continents... all in the pursuit of security, and neglect those in real need. We fail to realize security comes from God. And self security comes from knowing you have treated the beggars with charity."

*This touched my heart and reaffirmed the importance of our undertaking. We will be angels of abundance for many.

A quote...

"When you believe in something, believe in it all the way, implicitly and unquestionable."
~Walt Disney

I liked this quote because it reminds me to believe that this is it, without a doubt. This is really going to work--I truly believe that. Gaining that belief was the first step and I can't wait to keep taking more steps toward our goals and getting to create new goals as we reach our current ones.
