Well I woke up this morning and felt overwhelmed by the events that have taken place already. I started off this morning asking myself, can I really do this? Is this crazy? Can I really do this and at the end of 60 days be making 2000.00 a month? The first challenge is the calls everyday, they are at 8am pst and that means 11am for me. This is going to be harder than I thought. I only have 1 doctor appt. today at 11:50 and I am already stressed about how I am going to do it.
I was going through my emails and came across Jackie`s with her youtube video link in it. I click on it and watch. As I am watching I notice on the right side of the screen there are other videos similar. One of which is the Together We Can Change The World song/video. I immediately click on it and begin to watch and listen. As my eyes are swelling up from the emotional song I begin to feel my confidence come back. Not slowly, not in a moment, right then and there. To let everyone in on what this song is about go to www.TheTWCCTWsong.com
and read how Ginny, My Power Mall, and Together We Can Change The World Inc. brought 20 Ugandan aids orphans to America to sing and dance there way across the states changing not only their world but mine as well and many other people along the way.
I have put the youtube videos up here on my blog for all to see because it is what gave me my confidence back this morning and now that I know that this song has that kind of power, I will use it when ever I feel I need to. I wish I could carry it around with me and show everyone I see today! Okay, I just wanted to share that with you. I will blog again tonight to let you all know how my 2nd day of boot camp went.
Okay today was challenging to say the least. I had great vibes about getting out there and talking to people but the fear was still there, why? What is it I am so afraid of? There just people like you and me right?
So I start out this morning to catch my bus to the doctor, what do you know it`s raining! Thats ok I tell my self I have an umbrella and I begin to walk. Not so bad, I call in this morning as I am walking. I will have to listen to the call while on the way to the doctors. Well as I am standing there waiting for the bus and listening to the call I wanted to take the ear piece out of my ear and tell this lady standing next to me about My Power Mall. Did I do it? No I wouldn`t chance missing something said on the call! So off to the doctors, one stop to catch another bus, all the while still listening to Ginny on the call and I`m thinking to myself, I need to talk to these people on the bus and at the bus stop. Did I do it? No. Don`t want to miss anything on the call! lol I get to the doctors(late) and I have had it in my mind that I will simply talk to people there. Well that did not work out as planed. I almost didn`t even get seen because I was late, mood was gone or so I told myself.
Back to the buses and on my way home. Now I have no excuse to talk with these people at the bus stops right? So I do, first lady I talk to is very nice and was giving me the flirty eyes look so I thought hey this should be easy right? Yes it was, I talked to her, small talk first and then hit her with my power mall. Umm maybe the bus stops were not a great idea. You see this lady was in a drug rehab program and they are not allowed to have a phone,computer, or for that matter any other job that doesn`t fit a fast food type. So she tells me most of the people at that bus stop are from the same place! I said no way! Now I know how to spot them. Not that they do not deserve the chance to better their life but they just have to better it in another way first. The bus stop routine stopped right then and there. Now it was going home and taking care of homey things.
I need groceries so the super market is a place where I need to go but time and bus schedules do not match up for that today and is out of the question, hmmmmm. What am I going to do? I feel like I am failing and losing my fearlessness. I get a call from my grandparents, they have computer problems(THEY ALWAYS HAVE PC PROBLEMS) and me being Mr.Fixit well I am obligated and do not really mind doing it but I have got 5 people to meet today still! They are picking me up at 5pm and invite me to stay for dinner(this makes it all really worth it) Now I am thinking this could work out, go over there fix their PC, Have them drop me off at the supermarket and get my five there standing next to the green beans!lol Well, I could not fix their PC there and had to take it home. It`s 8 pm now and I`m not going to make it to the store. So I go home, take a deep breath and think what am I going to do I have to do this, I want to do this, the laundry mat again? Why not, it worked last night! Bam I`m off to the laundry mat across the street.
Okay did one of you tell them I was coming? The place was empty! It`s never empty! Oh no, I have procrastinated all day long and look where I am at. If I would of just DONE IT earlier I would not be in this situation. I know I did this to myself. No one told them I was coming at the laundry mat and if I don`t fix this right now I will be walking for however many miles it is to the next place that has people I can talk to. Wait a minute wait a minute! Warm something I remember from the call, from someone else s blog. HaHa I just saved my self from myself! Yep these five are people I know and since I know you are reading this, thank you and I hope all five of you will join me on this adventure and in 60 days from now be able to look back and just smile:)
Lesson learned today that tomorrow I really do not want to be in the same situation as today so JUST DO IT!
HELP FUND OUR CAUSE
Goodnight
