I know a man named David who works for a national retailer. David works over 70 hours a week and when he arrives home from work, he is too tired to even enjoy his precious time off. After 14 years with his company, it seems as if the time has just flown by. He and his wife have just taken out a home equity loan on their home in order to help get ready for the twins college education bills.



David has two late model cars, Lexus's. One for him and Lori and an old beater that the twins share. David started working for retailer straight out of college because they had an attractive "fast start" program to help get new grads into the workforce. Now, it's 14 years later and he still works at the same company. Sadly, David can't even remember what's it's like to have a slower pace where he could actually sit down and take a rest. Vacations are few and always rushed when they do happen and it seems as if the twins grew up and he missed most of their lives. He knows that other people make good money in home-based businesses, MLM, Internet Marketing. etc. but he feels trapped by his job and wouldn't even know where to start or who to turn to for help. David really wants a quick change.

Does David's life sound familiar? David's life is a never ending cycle of boredom, struggle and remorse that his life isn't going in the direction that he intended when he was younger. He had dreams to set the world on fire as a teenager and now the highlight of his day is settling onto his couch with his remote control.

I'm not trying to get you down here. I want to help you remember the dreams you had when you knew nothing could stop you. The world was yours for the taking and you were just the one to do it. What kind of legacy are we leaving our children by living a life that we have just grown to accept?

We're born full of passion and desire to win. Life teaches us that we have to get good grades, so we can get into a good college and then get a good job. We graduate full of ambitions (and credit card debt) and then get married, have kids, tell them to get good grades, get into a good college...and on and on. Now we have taught our kids to just perpetuate the same cycle and to teach their kids to do the same. The sad part is that we are all conditioned to believe that is how life is supposed to be. Work hard, have a family, die. It's not quite that harsh but it's pretty close to reality.

This is not the life we imagined for ourselves in our youth. You are supposed to live life as you like...not as your employer demands. What happened to us? Life happened. We find ourselves sucked into a vacuum and by the time we realize it we have no idea how to get back to the lives we dreamt of.

Don't despair. It is not too late. This is the moment. You can make a quick change now by the power of decision. That is where the change in your life starts. I encourage you to recapture the life you deserve. Don't give in to intertia. I know you deserve the life of your dreams.

My intention is to inspire you to believe in your dreams again. You had them once and you can still live them. They are yours to achieve. Don't give in to thinking that it's too late. It's not. I know you can live your dreams if you dare to believe that it's possible for you. Believe...then change will come. Peace...
