Reminders

I have learned over the past two years that I have a very unique life. My  schedule, my patterns and my perspective on life in general is vastly different than most people I have met. This isn't a bad thing.. In fact, I wouldn't trade this craziness for anything else.

I own and help run a Leadership Training company. Our training is so intense, so unique, that when people who have gone to many different trainings "like ours" over the years always say, "This was the toughest, yet most powerful thing I have ever done in my entire life." I get to do this at least twice a month! Our trainings run 2 and a half days, from six o clock in the morning to 1 to 3 in the morning! We are not surface dwellers.. We go deep into people's own belief systems and things that have been holding them back from being the people they want to be. We are SCUBA divers, as we like to say. People in our class get the chance to let go of past demons, past experiences, and belief systems that have been haunting them their whole lives, up until now. These are people who, to the rest of the World, look like they have it all! MBA's, PhD's, White picket fences, perfect marriages, 2.5 kids and the perfect car... And when they go through class, I get to expeiernce that even if people LOOK like they have the perfect happy life, 99.9 percent of the time, they always can be better. They can be better spouses, parents and employers/employees.

It's so hard to describe our training unless you have already been through the Leadership Awakening class. My last paragraph totally did not do our classes any justice, but it wil have to do for now until I find better words. It's difficult to describe a life changing expiernce. It's hard to explain that no matter how good people are doing, we could always be better. It's weird to explain how almost every person on God's green Earth has someTHING holding them back.. Whether it be some bad epcxience that happened to them when they were younger, or a bad belief system playing over and over in thier heads, we all have JUNK. We like to call these BLOCKS to Leadership. Things that are holding us back from being the very very best person we can be.

My reasoning for this blog is simple. LIVES CHANGE in our training. Time STOPS. We run out of breath, we SPEND ourselves in a worthy cause. We give 100% of our HEART, BODY AND SOUL to the NOW moment. We give everything in ourselves, so we can get so much more in return. I lose track of time, three days feels like 2 weeks! I have been telling myself I need to document these things that happen with us. and UP UNTILL NOW, I have given myself the excuse that I just dont have enough time.. ENOUGH! Enough with that bad B.S. (belief system), Val! Everyone has the same amount of time.. I just NOW am choosing how to better handle my time in my days on this Planet.

I am excited to be documenting our crazy life.. Our AMAZING experiences in class, (while walking gingerly of course, as I commit to confidentiality to what students say and or do in class), getting ready for class, and after the classes are over. I am excited to be able to look back and see all of the things we do. I need to constantly remind myself what we are doing MATTERS.
