October 17

I've mentioned FEAR before however; this FEAR is of FAILURE.

If I do this and then it doesn't work. Or was it really my hearing God or just too much pizza?

And then there are the voices in my head of what I think my family members will say.

I remember I was so proud of my 1st business.
To this day it is such a miracle how it happened.
I'd just hurt my back while training and could hardly moved.  If I remember correctly,  a few months prior to hurting my back I was in Personal Training school and putting together my own idea for a fitness bootcamp.  It all came together for me one day with all that writing on gotbootcamp plans I had a business plan.  And I was able to take that and turn it into several contacts with top gyms.  During this whole process - this is where the Spiritual part is important - I didn't value what I had.  I didn't understand it and because other people were asking me questions about how I am going to do xyz - I doubted myself and my gift.

I wound up closing that business when it was still doing well July 2008 and I have never been able to get it back.  It has taken some time for me to just get over it and go on with my new Life Coach business but there are days when I lament; especially when I see fitness businesses that started later than mines having such success.

The important thing about my 1st business and my new business was taking that 1st step.  I took my first step when the doctor told me I would never walk again - so who was I to create and run a fitness bootcamp. I started my 2nd business after I was a victim of domestic violence while being a mental health counselor. Both times it appeared the last thing I should be doing was starting a business.

And that is the beautiful thing about God; He knows when!

Just take the first step and allow Him to show you the rest...

You have a '1st STEP ' story and want to share?  

Please chime in.

Peace & Love
