You might have to walk alone

Well, its day 363 of the Rita to Rita Love project and I’m full of great expectations. This morning I opened up our weekly Team Success Saturday morning leadership call for my ZamZuu business. Getting back plugged in with my business partners was like being covered with my most favorite blanket. The energy was so amazing it jump started my day and kept me at full blast.

Last night, I committed myself to be laser focused on the goals I set forth in this challenge. I realized that part of the reason I had put my residual income business to the side was the fear of rejection. I simply did not like having my family, friends and colleagues telling me no about a business that just makes sense. If the truth be told I responded to their disinterest with my emotions.

Today, I am happy to report that I have taken the emotions out of sharing this business and its liberating. I know women are emotional creatures but its just exhausting when I think of the time we spend dispensing feelings on stuff that has nothing to do with feelings. So, back to happy thoughts!

My friend Janice Roberson Johnson asked me to look at a video she had posted on her Facebook page of her daughter Jasmine reciting her “I Am” statements about her dreams. She’s only 10 years old but I mean she is a big dreamer. Then I listened to Janice recite her “I AM” which has inspired me to write my “I Am” statement. If you’re reading this why don’t you think about doing the same?

I have a Dream Book that I’m constantly updating but decided the other day to do a Vision Board and hang it in my office so I can see it everyday. God is so faithful and I love how the potter is shaping the clay...me.

This journey is not for everyone. When you’ve told the Lord to make you over until you please Him you'd better count the cost. When you can say anywhere, anytime, any cost you may very well have to walk it alone. Note to self- everyone can’t go through the door that’s assigned to me in this season. I've been at it for 14 hours now and I think it's time to shut it down until tomorrow...amazed by His grace.
