I am a very logical person, so I went into MTH Charlotte 2011, thinking I was there to create a business plan for launching an all natural product line. The end. Within 10 mins, I knew that plan was out the window. I spent the next 10 hours with complete strangers, peeling away layers of myself to unearth way more than I had anticipated. I realized my priorities were all out of whack and that my business wasn't going to go anywhere unless I did some serious rearranging. I left there with a sense of renewal, peace, and direction. I felt clean. I can now apply so much clarity to my actions that life is so much more pleasurable and my business follows a path that reflects me. What I have made happen since, big and small: I have control over my time and the way I receive others. I've been able to double my gross sales so far this year as compared to last. My confidence in my work had grown because I've realized the value in what I do. What I'm working hard on now: Expanding my network by seeking out positive relationships with others in my industry. What I love about the MTH community: It's incredibly positive. There's never a negative word spoken. We all become bound by this process of self discovery and only encouragement can come from that. Best advice to others on how to make things happen: DO IT! Stop being so scared and put yourself together an action step list and tackle it! The biggest thing I learned from MTH: Take a deep breath and appreciate this moment. Before MTH, I never thought I'd: Have a life with so many less toxic people & thoughts. I just though that negativity was part of living.
