Life is Short you need a master plan

Life is Short you need a master plan

I used to hear my elders say "Life is Short' and I would .... roll my eyes

They said babies grow up to fast. But when I was in a moment of being a single mom on 2-3 hours of sleep working a 12-hour night shift. I would roll my eyes.

I remember talking to seasoned coworkers?about?'someday' when I retire?and they said it will come faster than you think...I rolled my eyes.

My babies grew up fast - just like they said it?would

Retirement happened in what feels like a blink - just like they said it?would

Time rolls by faster the older you get?- just like they said it?would

I heard myself say this week that if I live?to the age of my parents I have a good 25-30 good years left.

Today I got word that my bar running, dancing, fun hangout long-time friend, whom I was a single parent beside - has bone cancer. She said "I am praying for 5 more years. I said that's too short I am praying for 10 more" both of us?working in the medical field know the chances and the timeline.

I have been sad all day.?

This past weekend I slowed down. Put my phone down. Enjoyed the conversations with new people at a 4th of July gathering.

I sat listening to conversations. (it is a skill I am very good at.)

People were complaining about the gas prices, the price of the water company, how expensive airline flights had gotten, and how many hours they had to?work overtime?to save money for the upcoming trip a group of them were taking.

They?are sleeping?6-8 people in a two-bedroom hotel on the trip to save money. (that is a HARD pass for me)

The people who are making?a side income, are able to go with the flow better?when life changes.

When I was a single mom and my side business started?bringing in $300-$500 extra a month it removed the stress of working OT at my job.

It doesn't take a huge chunk of money to ease up on the expenses. You don't?have to build teams, run a Facebook group, have parties, make crazy phone calls, or teach product?classes.

We have an ATM?system that works for new beginners, and seasoned marketers.?

As a seasoned marketer, I fell in love with the simple system that?anyone can use. When I saw the system I knew for a fact I could help more people make $1000 a month.

Life is not going to wait for you. It's too busy rolling forward.?

What would $1000 a month coming in on top of your job do for your household?        

When I changed companies,?I changed gears.?I no longer wanted to grind.

I wanted to work less - produce more action and enjoy life a little more. Life is going by so fast - when I hear someone say I will do it later at 56 yrs old I cringe. I know how fast later gets here.

My income shifted but never stopped coming in because of how I set up my business with a?master plan blueprint.

My BFF Soraya Goddard and I recorded a podcast conversation about our experience with shifting to something new. It was a tuff decision. I was very nervous but I felt the pull to shift. It took me over 6 months to make the leap. I am glad I did it for myself. ---> Listen to the Podcast Conversation
