Who Stole 's Dream?
Published: Thu, 10/20/11
I got a note from a woman I partner with
once in a while for group
classes. She's an
amazing speaker and trainer, and just about
everyone
she meets wants a piece of her energy.
She's magic!
The note she got was about a class we were
The note she got was about a class we were
going to start for a group of
people local to
her, mostly elderly women.
She was doing a speaking
engagement and
a few of them asked about one on one and
small group
coaching.

hocus pocus and meant only to sucker people
out of money.

I was a little sad...for a moment.
Someone had invaded their space.
They had a moment of clarity, when
their souls
were asking for more than the existence they were
used to.
Then they let people talk them out of their bliss.
I could go on all day about the economic system

But I won't. That's a choice people make.

Every once in a while a window opens in your life.
You get a view of what's possible.
If you want more money, more security,
more energy, more passion, more whatever...
You see yourself IN that place.

Not outside looking in.
And you either jump at it...quickly...

And months or years go by.
Wasted time.
