Whether we choose right or wrong the state of mind that we are in at the point of decision determines our outcome.</p><p style="text-align:left;">When I first started thinking of entering business for myself, my state of mind was “<b>I Can Do This</b>.” No, I had not done anything like this before nor did I have any personal connections to anyone that could do it for me. Therefore, I had to decide that I was going to do it for myself. In the beginning it was a little rough as I was making a path for myself in a new area (<b><i>talk about culture shock!!</i></b>).</p><p style="text-align:left;">Things started off a little slow and I was not seeing the results I had hoped for initially.

You have now partnered with courage to go after your success. Knowing that success can’t be completed without “U.”</p><p align="left" style="text-align:left;">To all of my fellow marketers whether you’re a seasoned pro or a newbie just jumping in. Connecting I can do to I will do is the jump start that you need every morning to keep the ball rolling be it rain or shine!</p><p align="left"><b><i>~ Living Every Day With Purpose </i></b></p></div>
