Be the Change You Hope to Achieve

Do you hate that feeling like you are just stuck? In your job? Life? Feel like nothing ever changes each day, it is just same old, same old. Yeah I know that feeling, I know it well. What I want to share with you is how one day EVERYTHING changed for me…

It all started where like everyone I grew up with parents conditioned to think that the way I was going to get a head in life, is to work hard in school, get good grades, go to college, graduate and get a good job. That was it, that was my opinions!

Well that sucks… I don't have much of a choice do I besides choosing my specialty in college.

I pretty much lived that path, but it never sat well with me and I never understood why. I went to college, got a Associates, barely! My counselor always asked, "Takara, you have always gotten good grades up till college, and now it is like you are barely getting by, why are you not putting your all into it?" and my response would always be well I guess I just don't understand it.

Little did I know my day was brewing inside! I promise I will get to it, but the back nine is important.

After I graduated, I lived life each day, never making plans, just doing! Hell, I was living with my sister, working together at a clothing store as my part time job, I was on vacation one week, not know what to do, so I called our boss and asked for her to be on vacation too. We went to Canada for what was supposed to be NY overnight and were gone for 4 days, getting in all the sights, gambling and drinking at the vineyard.

In 2006, reality set in for me about life, I was pregnant, working days, with little to no chance of getting a raise to support myself and my child on the way. "What am I going to do? "

I did research and found out about Network Marketing, but went back to a JOB, dabbling in new world I never knew about.

In 2011, I lost that job, and was lost. My world shattered, gave up my apartment, my car, and went through bankruptcy. Yeah I got a full time job, but I was not gonna make it long term. I started doing research, connecting with folks.

And here it is guys, the moment I needed, the push, or some may say my deciding factor something, everything needed to change…

It was a blizzard outside, and I had to go to work bc I couldn't call off or I would be fired. I left early to make my normally 45 minute commute to work. I was doing good on the streets, got to the freeway and too my surprise the roads weren't that plowed and my car got stuck. I rocked it forward then backward turning the wheel as I went to wedge myself out, when I finally did I slowly slide side to side up the off ramp of the next exit because I couldn't get over onto the freeway. I got off and pulled into a parking lot, called a coworker, saying "I don't know what to do? I cant call off of work but I don't know how to get there, the roads by me, aren't really plowed, what do I do?" She had no idea what to tell me but tried to calm me down, when we got off the phone, I cried my eyes out. I cried because I couldn't get to work on the freeway, I didn't know of any other way and I didn't want to go in that weather but I had to go to a job that I can't stand.

THAT'S IT! I don't ever, ever want to be stuck in this position again, having to leave home in crazy weather and be afraid of the big wigs letting me go for it.

Since then I have found the company I know will get me where I want to be, in a community I LOVE to be around, with the support I NEED!
