Getting from Here to There

In my former life (let's call that 12 years ago), I was the Queen of half read self-help books. At that time, there were four little children demanding all of my energy and I somehow was under the impression that somewhere in a book I would find myself. Then I started dancing again. First it was classes, then it was back to teaching, followed by a Zumba certification, and now I teach my own creation, Phusia. I then decided to certify others to teach it.

So guess what I am the Queen of now? I am the Queen of fully read entrepreneur books. I've read the best sellers and the unknowns. I've read the books they recommend at Middlebury College and the not so academic books filled with inspirational quotes. I tweet. I Facebook. I comment on blogs and groups. I read articles on the Internet about business, dance and the business of dance. I join tweet chats. I'm in it thick. But what I haven't sat down to do is come up with a PLAN! I wake up everyday, work at PhiT, teach Phusia and make baby steps toward my ultimate goal which is (drum roll please) to inspire millions of women to dance again. In order to do that, I need to certify approximately 30,000 instructors. So I'm saying it here and now - I will certify 30,000 instructors to teach and inspire millions of women to dance by June 2022. Ok, so it's not a plan, but it's a goal, a great goal and in order for me to get there from here, I'm taking baby steps some days and giant steps other days. All steps are forward as long as they are in the name of the dream.

Thanks for reading!
