As I reflect on Thanksgiving and anticipate the Christmas season, my heart is full. I am so thankful for the amazing things in my life and how I have been blessed. I sometimes ask myself "what did I do to deserve all I have?" A stunningly beautiful, caring, passionate and ultimately loving wife. Two ornery, yet innocent and equally as passionate daughters. A fantastic support system in our families, and a lifestyle of serving others through our teaching professions. I truly am a blessed man.
One then might ask...
- "If you are so blessed, why are you doing this Advocare thing?" or
- "Do you really think that your "pyramid scheme" is going to work?" (imagine this being said in a sarcastic voice :) or my favorite...
- "Oh, how is that working out for you?"
- It is what I do! I am serving others, changing lives and helping my family. Why wouldn't I do it?
- Yes, my direct selling business (not pyramid scheme) is set up for short term and long term success (if interested in what I mean, Click Here for a humorous yet purposeful outlook on network marketing).
- "Oh, how is that working for you?" It is working. Period.
Okay, sure Chad... easy to put on the blog at 9:53 at night. Prove it, why do you say it is working?
Glad you asked...
- I live a healthier lifestyle through Advocare. What do I mean by healthy? I am physically healthier. I lost 25 lbs. in 24 days and nearly a year later I still feel amazing. The products work. I don't drink coffee, completely kicked the soda habit and am a much healthier eater due to these world class products. I am mentally and emotionally healthier. With physical health comes an improved state of mind along with body. Do I still experience stress? YES! Am I better prepared to deal with this stress? ABSOLUTELY! Advocare has helped me understand and prepare for the challenges I will face. Lastly, I am financially healthier. Through Advocare I have taken control of my finances and have shifted my focus for preparing for the future. I am excited to see where the future leads us.
- My family is healthier. Lindsey, Gracie and Annie not only benefit from a healthier husband and father, but they are also seeing the benefits of the world class products themselves. Purple Champs and Pro-Biotics for the kids. Plenty of Spark, Omegas, CorePlex and Catalyst for Lindsey. My brother has lost 31 pounds and looks and feels like a new person and my parents are as healthy as they have been in the last 15 years. Yeah, my family is healthier :)
- Advocare is providing a Plan B income for my family. I am not looking to get rich quick or have others make me tons of money. I am working a proven, successful system to help and serve others and be paid now and for years to come. As we continue to invest time and energy in this company I know that I am creating opportunities and blessings for my family and others in the future.
