Stop giving away your power. When you seek approval to shoot for your goals and dreams, you give away your power. Don’t ask permission to live your life, just go live it! The people you most want approval from may not have your best interest at heart, but rather their own. They may want to protect you, yet not realize your strength. They may not understand, so show them.
Get quiet, listen to your gut, then go for it. It’s ok to get opinions, weigh options, and do your research, after all you want to make sure you’re starting down the right path to your goals. But don’t give away your power, write your own permission slip.
Stay CLEAR…stay FOCUSED…and it will be yours…Heather Frey, President and Founder of SmashFit.com. Heather had such an amazing post that I asked her permission to reprint it along with my thoughts.
When you quit…you really fail. You have potential…act on it…create results. Results yield a belief which funnels more potential. Even negative results can be positive…realizing moving forward that you had a 50/50 chance of having a positive outcome…never ever quit! Always “push through” no matter how challenging and daunting it may seem. Then you will truly WIN!! I remember a quote from the movie “The Replacements“…Gene Hackman told Keanu Reaves that when the game is on the line, winners always want the ball. do you want the ball? Do you see yourself as a winner?
Empowerment is within your reach…reach out and grab it…never let go!

Being an entrepreneur has given me a deep appreciation for individuals who are success oriented and never give up. The drive to always “push through” is a trait of successful people.
I have been fortunate to associate myself with many successful individuals over my life. It began with my father who instilled in me the ability to step outside of the box…to create something out of nothing. He taught me the importance of integrity in business...traits that I have incorporated into the various business models I employ.
I spent the first ten years of my career in the medical field. I worked side by side with amazing individuals who put their own self-interests aside in order to nurture others back to good health. Many times I witnessed life and death situations. It was always humbling to experience the team-work that evolved around trying to save a lives.
As my career path evolved into the business world, not only could I bring those experiences into my persona, I saw a need to spread information…real information for real situations. A close friend of mine began to mentor me in aspects of blogging. He has given me incredible insight into how a blog should be developed…how to focus my passion for helping mentor people to becoming successful entrepreneurs. This passion for mentoring others began when I was a young child and continues today. It is not about me, but rather those who have influenced my life.
I am a work-out addict and a real “ski dog”. Sorry guys and gals…I do not “ride”. I live for deep powder and steep chutes. I love the feeling of looking over the edge of a steep run…feel my heart beat faster with that adrenaline rush and then “jump in”. I love golf…but I always wonder if I will ever break 100…lol! Most of all, I love my wonderful family…they are the best! Thanks for stopping by and I hope you feel empowered today.
