Perfect Timing!

In the midst of last week's chaos, I receive a message from a friend of mine who had no clue what I was going through (read my previous posting) to tell me that there is a major event in my area that I needed to attend. Reluctant to call him back because of my pathetic state of mind I did anyway. Thank God I did because it was Divine intervention.

After a couple referred phone calls to his friend and his friend's friend, I receive 2 tickets in the mail from the host of the event himself. A couple of days later I get a phone call from my dear friend Patty asking me to meet for coffee the next day. And in my meeting with her, she commented on how positive my outlook is in light of everything that had happened in my previous week. I agreed. I then mentioned that I have an event to attend but I'm not sure if I'm going. She encourage to go and she offered to go with me. She said that she wouldn't let me stay home in my pity party anyway (not in her own words).

And let me just say, what a show! The line up of celebrity entrepreneur speakers that spoke was amazing. I had about a gazillion "aha" moments. As if God was speaking to me again and again. It was perfect timing too because I was on the verge of seriously considering giving up on my company/dream and take the easy way out. I gave myself that week to decide whether I should move forward or give up. Well, I'm not giving up. I want to know what it feels like to have a success story. I want to know what if feels like to say I made it against all odds. The big message I received was that I have it me to succeed and I am three feet away from my breakthrough. Another lesson that popped out that I thought was ironic was - don't make any decisions when your in your valley. Funny!

Here is the trailer if you are curious to know where I went: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oACS8wTKTAA
