I am posting this here because I know there are people who still havent figure out how to create their dreams. Here is a testimony from a Samurai who did just that. Hello my Sam Camp 29 Family! I am so excited to announce that I will be attending Sam Camp with all of you!! Over the last 7 weeks I created $9000 and more dollars to pay off debt and attend Sam Camp. I have been asked to share my journey with all of you so here it goes. It started 7 weeks ago when Elizabeth called me up, like Im sure she did with all of you, and we set up a game plan. Im a list person so that is how Im going to break it down for you. I am also not much of a writer so Ill fair warn you my grammer and punctuation is not perfect. My 7 week journey to creating $9,000 and MORE! 1. I figured out how much debt I had and how much I would get create to live and pay for Sam Camp. This was a hard step for me because of my money programs and it was one of the most important ones. I even met with a financial advisor to learn more. He thought I was crazy when I said I am going to retire by the age of 36 (5yrs) but he went along with me. smile emoticon 2. I got myself a really good accountability buddy. For me this is my friend Suzie, who has gone through the Klemmer work herself and has been my mentor in other parts of my life. I knew that if I told her I was going to do it I better do it because she would absolutely make me follow through on my risk involved. Which was getting a job at a fast food restaurant. For those who know me this would have been wrong, for me, on so many levels so it wasnt happening. 3. I got real clear on my intention and posted it to Facebook. I asked if anyone needed any help and said why I was doing it and from there I got tons of messages from people that were willing to pay me to help them out. I now have two houses I clean on a weekly basis, I babysit for my friend so that she can study, I have painted a bathroom, organized a pantry, and I do this on top of teaching my exercise classes, IsAgenix, and bartending. Its amazing how many opportunities appear when you clear on what you are doing. It was also crazy/awesome how many people support you and cheer you on when you get clear and tell the world! 4. Now that I had money producing activities I planned out each day of the week with something going on. Some days were easier than others for sure but having a plan in place made it so much easier. 5. I put up a visual countdown with sticky notes (which I LOVE!!) in my bathroom. I wrote down what I made for the day and switched it to the opposite side of my mirror. I know this sounds funny but this was the one thing that kept me focussed the most. I absolutely HATED marking down a zero on a day if I didnt make anything. This might not be for everyone but finding something that works for you to keep track is a must! 6. I just did it. I worked 14 hour days, I ran on two hours of sleep, I worked from 5 am to midnight going to job to job. I am not saying that this is how it has to be done because its not healthy and I payed the price for when I got sick for 4 days and at the same time I knew that I was going to make it happen regardless. There was nothing standing in my way. I did a lot of praying and reaching out to everyone around me. Things happened that I cannot explain and it was crazy to be witness to it all. 7. My last push to create the $9,000 was to create a Go Fund me Account called the Ripple Effect 10 day Challenge. For every $20 donated to me I would volunteer 1 hour of my time to a local charity. To ask for money was really out of my comfort zone so I decided to not just ask for money but make it a WIN/ WIN by giving back. I created $850 from this so I get to volunteer 43 hours to a charity here in Billings, MT. I am SO EXCITED to start this week! To sum it all up its a matter of making a plan and doing it. Staying consistant and surrounding yourself with people who support and push you forward. Oh and ENJOY THE JOURNEY!!!!!! Even through all of the tears, doubts, and freak outs I realized I am stronger than I was yesterday and the day before that. I met even more amazing people on this journey and people that I didnt even know cared about me told me how inspiring I was. I found out that I love to do a lot of different things and even though some things werent in my comfort zone, like cleaning houses, I actually enjoyed doing it. Love the life you live and enjoy the journey! Thank you all for inspiring, loving, and supporting me throughout all of this. You all made this journey enjoyable and FUN! LOVE YOU ALL AND I NEED YOUR LOVE!!!
