I started this year in a dark place mentally and emotionally. Life was not going where I wanted it to. I had to move in with my mom. I didn't have a bed. All of my possessions were stuffed in boxes in the den, and I was empty. One day, I sat down and thought about it. I hated where I was... HATED IT! I knew if I stayed in that mental space I would be miserable and everyone around me would be miserable too! I decided then to create a vision. I chose to create my vision around my business and my son (my personal life was not even a thought at the time) and remember why I started this company in the first place.
I had been going through a lot trying to define my
businesses and my dreams over the last 18 months. I went through a spot of hell last year
with my ex-fiancee and father of my child and it really ripped me a part. My business was the last
piece of me to survive that relationship. I had to pull myself together
the best I could to finish undergrad and raise our son, so it is
necessary that this business not only survives, but that it thrives and changes lives and lives beyond me!!!
From that moment, I made my vision (a successful lasting legacy for my son, my niece, and my family) the focal point of my life. I'd be lying if I said that it just happens and everyday is full of passion and happiness, but I have a vision of where I want my life to be. My vision is expanding and growing daily. Parts of the vision are being realized in ways that I never dreamed possible, and it's all because I decided to not only change my focal point but to create my focal point.
