I realized that "Someday Starts Now". I'd had this plan of freedom 35. I had begun investing in real estate in my early 20's with the intention of leaving my job at 35 and doing whatever I wanted to do at the time. I had been waiting for this arbitrary age when there wasn't a really good reason why. And it's like MaryEllen Tribby said at the Early to Rise Information Marketing Bootcamp in Delray Beach last week ... "Someday never comes until you say that someday starts now."  What are you saying to yourself when you say "Someday I will ... " and why are you waiting?
Why can't your someday start today?Listen, I didn't quit my job on the spot. I spent 6 months preparing to leave my job. Both for my own benefit and for the benefit of the company. I respect and admire the President of the company as well as the people who work there. I wasn't about to just abandon ship because I had an epiphany. Not to mention we had to make a few changes to our lifestyle to be able to afford to live without my income. Let's face it ... we make money from our real estate investments but it's not the same as a nice cushy VP salary that hits your bank account every 2 weeks! So we started making changes. My someday started that moment ... and even though the real "someday dream" hasn't arrived yet, I feel at peace because we're working towards it every day. We're working towards the day where we've built our business and investments to the point where we have a large supply of time, money and energy that we can devote to helping two causes we're both passionate about ... helping abused and abandoned dogs and helping children in foster homes find good families. I'd like to challenge you ... what is your someday dream? What can you do today... even if it's small
