There have been times during my Visalus run that the road has gotten a little bumpy; things not lining up like (I) would like them too at a particular moment, people falling by the way side or one more dropped autoship. Personally, I faced challenges that seemed to distract my attention and focus.Life issues, family drama and such seemed to require way more attention than (I) wanted to give. After the dust settled, the day over, I closed my eyes and realized, I gave it all I could for that one day. I have learned what they mean by, "Don't Sweat the Small Stuff".
When I began the Vi-Life Adventure in late August, I was faced with tremendous challenges with my oldest daughter, Chandler; I didn't give up.We battled for a month with her sickness in and out of hospitals and doctor's offices. Never questioning the plan, just knowing that "all things work together for the good of those who Love God and are called according to his purpose for them". I knew in my heart, God would show us a way that we could unite as a family and draw close when the times are tough and cheer one another on when the victories are won. One of these victories is today. Chandler qualified for Regional Director and is fighting her battles and winning! Visalus has been a motivator; the shake parties have given positive interaction and the relationships that are forming are proof positive that God has given to us a vehicle not only promoting health and wellness but psychologically building self esteem, self worth, values and integrity. She is learning at the ripe age of 20 what it takes to promote unity and cohesiveness; the importance of building relationships with people that are taking a "leap of faith" into the unknown Vi-Land. We have properly positioned ourselves in an industry that can take us far with our goals and dreams if we keep our intentions pure and trust worthy. What better way for a parent to be able to instill this into their children but by having them live it out? The ranks are exciting, the enroller pools checks are fun but this experience for us is so much bigger than a bag of shake mix. Working with individuals that really want better for their health and life is what keeps me waking up at 5:30 each morning.
I hope all of you can come to Cedar Springs tonight to hear Dale and Linda. Travel together and will see you there. 7:00, Ronnie and Renee Shingler's House. Leaving from our house around 6:45!!!
Blessings and have a great Close-Out Month!
