Re-Starting Engines for Boot Camp in 2009 --- Day 15

Day 15
January 5, 2009

Well, out the gate quickly, we were not on this January 5, 2009, the Re-Start of the Boot Camp in the New Year.

Blasting out of the gates, however, was our founder, Ginny Dye. A powerhouse of energy and excitement for the changes over the holiday, and a shift in energy at the New Year, Ginny rides a WAVE that is sky-high and that feels like it will last a long while. As the day progressed, I wondered why I wasn't on the wave, too.

The 5th marked the day Big Z got to return to his school, his friends, and his routine. He was a bit slow to start, but as he got to school, his energies were also fueled with excitement and happiness to rejoin his friends and to get back to learning. He carried himself so much better than I. Perhaps it is due to his excitement about being 9, for he's talking of his new milestone almost incessantly since his big day, January 1.

I figured out why I wasn't on the wave. The day previously I'd awakened with a sore throat. This day, I felt it even more, and my energy crash dominated most of my day.

However, in spite of it, I can add that I made sure to give myself a lot of self-care, knowing that I had an important third Reconnective Healing session with a client on the 6th. I wanted to ensure I was well, because this last session was just as important as the first, and one not to be cancelled due to my not feeling well.

Big Z and I were on both morning and evening conference calls for Boot Campers. It was SO awesome to be back on the calls, rejoining everyone and hearing their excitement to be back. The highlight was listening to Ginny read her story, "Born to Fly." Very inspiring to be eating breakfast and to hear such an uplifting story. An added bonus was getting to hear it again at dinner!

Boot Camp Training Calls open to ANYONE. Join us daily at 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. P.S.T. (212-990-4000 code: 5015#)

Welcome back, Boot Campers. We're continually inspired by you. Keep up your efforts and your good intentions and your good actions, please. You're providing for us that are following along examples of how we can grow our own businesses, of how to keep persisting in spite of having results that may no show your efforts, and of hope for reaching the goal--- $2000 in 60 days ---
And perhaps more than this, you're showing us how to be a winner, by consistently exercising your muscles in new and sometimes uncomfortable ways, showing us the way to success for our own lives. Thank you.

We extend a thank you to Gary Goodspeed for recording calls and making quality of recordings the best possible for all of us who may have missed a call, or would like to review the call at a later time. We appreciate you! (Gary is our Director of Media Production.)

And, thank you to Owen Ott, for posting the calls so that we may review them at our convenience. Owen, we thank you, too, for all you do behind the scenes to have our websites functioning with top performance all the time. (Owen is the Director of Systems Administration and is our Webmaster.)

Thank you to Jacki Varacalli for keeping up with Ginny, your kids and family, your own efforts, and the Boot Campers and Alternate Boot Campers, and, and, and. WOW! Even when your house is flooding and your kids need you, and life demands more and more of you, you rise to the challenge every time. I am awed by your capacity to continue to juggle all tasks with grace while having the added physical challenge of M.S. Thank you, too, for your diligent support, humor, laughs and inspiration, and your firmness with Boot Campers (hence, all of us, too!), for we need support and accountability to reach our goals. (Jacki, as you know already if you've followed our Boot Camp, is our Director of Marketing.)

I'd like to add that second only to Ginny's excellent wave-riding abilities, Jacki demonstrated her own excited squeal of thrill for being a Wave Rider. Rock-on, Sistas, for your excitement and firm vision of E-X-P-L-O-S-I-V-E GROWTH is contagious!

Other accomplishments for our day included reviewing the blogs of Boot Campers and adding supportive comments, revisiting our notes on our efforts from before our trip to CA on December 17, and reviewing our email and e-card history to refresh my mind on action plans.

Lastly, we joined Ginny on the Family Chat call at 6 p.m., which will now be held weekly.

Tune in every Monday night at 6 p.m. P.S.T. (212-461-5800 code: 3497#)

WOW! What an informative call!

Changes and growth are in the air for Together We Can Change the World and My Power Mall. How wonderfully exciting it is. (Refer to January 2 post in our blog for more information).

We also wish to thank Ginny and the entire Corporate Team for the amazing efforts and energy they are expending on a daily basis to make this company the best it can be. If you'd like to learn more about the entire Corporate Team, click this link: Corporate Team.


Self care included drinking hot, fresh squeezed lemon water with maple syrup, getting a nap, and going to bed early.

My thought for the day: Why is my energy lagging so far behind the Wave-Riders? Hmm. Guess we're each in our own cycle of Divine Timing. I know that I will be there, too, just not today.

BigZandMom,
I remember you being in one of the WC Clinics, I loved that a kid wanted to badly (and so early) to start his own business - one smart man if you ask me. Aletha e-mailed me part of your blog and I want to thank you for all of your kind words. I hope you are feeling better and you catch your 2009 energy wave soon.
