Doors open, things happen...keep going!

Hello All...hope you are looking forward to a glorious weekend here! It's been a strange journey for me...these last 9 months....lots has occurred in the time I could've been pregnant and had a baby! Wow..when you look at it that way! I won't go into what the strange journey was - those who know me, know its been health-related - but...I do want to re-iterate how positive-thinking can certainly be a great benefit to each of us. I'm a Personal Trainer...and I am so very proud to be one and feel honored to work with the Clients who place themselves in my capable hands! The feeling of confidence which results from feeling fit and strong (notice I said NOTHING about size!!!!) is something I've taken on as a Mssion. I believe all Women, children (that's who I'm beginning with!) should have the opportunity to wake up every day looking forward to a promising, exciting time ahead with nothing but happiness and confidence. This world would be a better place and I intend to help make it so, one person at a time. During my 'time of strangeness' I'll call it! I was lucky enough to continue working with my Clients...but I cut out Networking and looking for new Business while I got better. And...eventually I did! I've been lucky enough to have a few months of strange-free and in that time I got my face out there; met Friends/Colleagues for coffees, went to Luncheons, joined useful (for me) Networking Groups. I even finally got myself an official Logo which I love! So....with all my energy going in the right direction...I suddenly found more and more new Clients coming my way!! To top it all off...talk about being in the right place at the right time...I attended a Luncheon recently and have teamed up if you will, with a fabulous and SO knowledgeable Registered Nutritionist. We attended the Luncheon...laughed our way through with the wonderful Women at our table and the end result? I have two new, thoroughly enjoyable Clients...and am to be speaking regularly for a large Corporation! Talk about doors opening when you need/want them to!! My Business, as so many others, is about selling myself more than what I offer. If you put yourself out there and people like you and feel you are trustworthy (granted ...they will ask you questions along the way to glean whether or not you know your 'trade'), you are on the right track! Fitness is making and keeping your body healthy and strong....but it is also about keeping a positive mind. I bet most people you know who put their health and fitness as a priority...are pretty positive, confident and happy souls! There is a reason for this! Lastly...to keep going. One of my health issues has returned; I'm hoping it won't visit for long...but one thing I know for sure...Now that I know the key lies within me and how I handle situations, as uncomfortable as I am - I WILL push through this and continue that networking and working hard for and with my Clients. It's good they see their Trainer is a normal person with challenges....and perhaps one Client will even take something from seeing me struggle, yet succeed still through the 'time of strange'! Enjoy your weekend and keep smilin''!!!! SHINE On...
