My Reason Y I Invested $600K to Learn Spanish

 

Since the whole basis of my life coaching practice is aimed at helping others find their reason Y so they can achieve their greatest goals, it’s only fair for me to share my personal reasons Y. Let me tell you why I invested $600k in a two year move to Latin America (LatAm) to learn Spanish and the culture.

About one year before I decided to move to South America I had begun to take a few Spanish courses. Although this may work for some, I felt that (1) the progress was too slow and (2) I was not learning the real norms of the Latin culture and language that would allow me to achieve my goal. And since I believe that you either are growing or dying, I felt that learning Spanish would pay off hugely if I was willing to invest. And invest I did, to the tune of almost $600,000. Allow me to explain…..

My Return From Latin America

I just returned from South America on Sunday, May 15th, and Monday morning I decided: rather than spend the next 3 months living in the past and telling the same stories over and over again about my wonderful 2 year adventure through Latin America, why not jump right into my next adventure, allowing me to live in the present and focus on the future.

So, it’s Thursday and I am launching my Life Coaching practice where I help those who have decided that: 

1) Their current state in life just ain’t right!  I work with them ….to answer the difficult questions that only they have the answers to so that they can begin to live boldly, take risks courageously, and seek affirmation from only those that really matter.

2) Their current physical state just ain’t right! I work with them to find a deep Reason Y they are ready to make the commitment to improve their health so that they can find the inner-strength to stick with a program and begin to live a more fulfilling life.

Since one frequent by-product of life coaching is the realization of an entrepreneurial venture, and since I have spent the last 2 years researching how to monetize any passion into a profitable internet business, I am also going to consult on how to build a business in this new economy.

To live my motto of letting action triumph over fear, I have partnered with Team Beach Body; a company that generated 400+ million in sales in 2010 and the creators of P90X, the most successful product in the home fitness arena. This is a natural complement to my coaching practice as I plan to allow P90X to count the reps while I focus on the most difficult parts of fitness: motivation and accountability.  I am doing this today, not tomorrow, and not in three months! Instead, as my step-by-step plan evolves (which will work for any internet business), I intend to share it with all who are interested in order to share how to take a raw concept from inception to a full-fledged business on the internet.

I have purposely launched with nothing but this basic website that I put together last night so that others can see that….IT ALL STARTS WITH THE FIRST STEP. IT ALL STARTS WITH  ACTION!!!!!
