Entrepreneurship Truth
Entrepreneurs (network marketers) are not paid on an hourly basis for their productivity. They are paid for their VISION, COURAGE, and STAMINA. They are paid for willing to do what others would not do. They are paid for staring down fear, ignoring fatigue, fighting loneliness, pushing through discouragement, and walking by faith. They are paid for putting dreams, lives and security on the line. And only those who have been there understand that being an entrepreneur is a high wire act without a safety net. They are modern day heroes who deserve everything that comes their way. I salute them.”

A dear friend of mine forwarded this email to me. Wow ....when I read it, it brought tears to my eyes. This little paragraph says it all about business owners. According some studies, business owners do not make a profit until the 5 year in business.
Never did I understand just how brutal the experience would be as a business owner. I never thought I would own my own business. Saving my family ties is the reason I choose to fight for this dream. I recall watching Cinderalla Man. Wow... was I inspired by this movie. Russel Crow , one of my favorite actors, did an awesome job portraying an incredible boxer that endured so much pain for the love of his family. His love and faith changed his path towards a life of hope. You have to see it.
The past few months have become somewhat lonely. Some of my business buddies took other roads. There have been so many wonderful people whom have entered my path through this 4 year journey. Each one has contributed in more ways than one. I call them my "little angels " that have sprinkled my life with rainbows. I know this year will bring more interesting people that will become part of my journey towards the rainbow of HOPE.
Stay tuned as Addy's drives away in the add mobile with sparkle and bling.
