As part of the application for signing up for our Resolve to Evolve Retreat or Training, I ask every participant to write an essay about why they want to do the training. It’s not formal but I just want to have a window into the minds of those whom are intrigued by this kind of a program.
I was reading one of the essays this weekend and upon reading the last paragraph it hit me… these are the exact words that I’ve always wanted to share with anyone who stops themselves from taking training because of the excuse that they have too much going on and too much work to do. I never felt comfortable saying it because my words may seem insensitive where you think that I don’t understand what you’re going through. The truth is that I understand all too well and that’s EXACTLY why it’s time to do this for yourself. Hopefully these words hit you like they hit this trainee and me!
Thank you Andrew Goggin for saying these words so succinctly and perfectly! I couldn’t have said it better myself…
“Think about this for a second, we are going to Mexico, to a place that looks like paradise, beautiful weather, great healthy food, to practice Yoga, learn about ourselves, become better people, make new friends, forge relationships with others…I can’t think of a reason not to go….WORK, I have to laugh about it now!!”
I’m laughing with you Andrew! Life is too short and we must instill quality of life over quantity!
Time to Seize Today! 🙂
