I never had money…
I started working and became independent when I was 14 years of age. I got many jobs and work in different fields. Some of those jobs were fairly paid and others I made a good amount of money.
It did not matter how much money I made, somehow I ended up broke. In my season jobs I managed to save up five thousand dollars for the off season, but soon I would find myself borrowing money to pay my rent.
It was not until I started to read about how to become financially free that I could finally have enough money to invest. Such investments have yielded me good returns that now I make money without working. Plus I had more free time to do the thing I love to do.
How did I become from being broke to be financial free? Very simple- success leaves clues that we can all follow if we spend the time searching in the right direction.
My relationships have failed many times…
I am not proud of what I am going to share with you right now, but it is fair to share my successes with my failures. I had 4 serious unsuccessful relationships. I made many mistakes- dating the wrong person, not knowing how to communicate, not maintaining my relationship and many others.
It took me some time to work on myself before I could date the right person. Now I have been married for a year and I can tell you my relationship is magical. Of course there are negatives and positives in my new marriage, but now I can see my mistakes, work on them and finally I gave myself the time to choose the right partner.
How do I manage to come from broken relationships to have a happy marriage? Very simple- success leaves clues that we can all follow if we spend the time searching in the right direction.
I did not know how to deal with people…
I have been taken advantage of by friends and business partners. I have been emotionally touched in a negative way by friends. I did not know how to negotiate with people and really I did not know how to deal with people.
I never knew how to make people feel special. I did not know how to control my emotions and understand others. I did not know how to control my thoughts and my human desires.
However, I learned how to deal with people and now I run a couple of businesses, I help people reach their fitness goals, lose weight and improve their lives. People’s negative comments do not bother me and I learned to detect people who are going to help grow.
How did I become from being an adult child to a successful health coach? Very simple- success leaves clues that we can all follow if we spend the time searching in the right direction.
I don’t know how it feels to be out of shape…
When I was younger, I liked to drink, smoke cigarettes and party at night. I would eat junk food and do recreational drugs here and there even though I was not a fan of it. I did not care about how much I slept or what foods I would consume. I did not exercise.
Of course when I was younger, I did not feel much pain or get ill often. But, since I interviewed many people, I know many people who had the same lifestyle I had. They are now feeling the effects of the bad habits they were practicing.
Thank God I chose to start exercising when I was nineteen years of age. I stopped drinking, smoking, doing any type of drug and I started to pay attention to the food I was eating. Since then, I have become stronger than ever, every year I lift heavier and I feel more in shape.
When I was twenty, people who were thirty told me to wait until I turned their age. When I was thirty, people who were forty told me to wait until I turned forty. This year I am turning forty and people are telling me to wait until I am fifty to start feeling all the stress I put my body into.
I am not fifty, but I have heard that song before. Also what I know is that exercise and growing muscle naturally, keeps the body young. Eating healthy and not putting chemicals in our bodies also helps us to stay young.
How did I manage to never gain fat and stay in shape into my forties?
