The Freedom of Planning my Own Time
Being a New Earth distributor gives me a lifestyle of fun, excellent
income, enjoyable work, and plenty of time for hobbies, music, grandchildren
and taking care of my own and my family's health.
The work of Hans Selye, the "stress guru" clearly shows
that a complete absence of stress is never the healthy answer. Our
attitudes, our food, our exercise and our ability to "change
our waves" are the real issues.
When I begin working with business builders, I ask them about their
rhythms. What times of the day, week, month, year, are their best
times for working, for resting, for travel, for family, etc.? My
work with them will depend on their answers.
My New Earth business allows me to relax or make big changes
in my life for the first week or so of every month. For example,
the first week of next month, my husband, now mostly retired, and
I will move in and care for preschool grandchildren while their
parents take a five day holiday. Sometimes we travel and sometimes
we go to our cabin, play flute and piano duets and enjoy nature.
Although I am working hard for three weeks of most months, every
two hours or so I exercise for at least five minutes. I love to
swim, do aqua exercise, practice a gentle form of karate, and do
a little yoga each day. We eat organic, simple food. I make time
for friends, a telephone call, a bridge game, an evening cup of
tea. I always have time for phone chats with five sons and four
daughters-in-law.
The many activities in my business provide lots of variety in
my working life. I talk with prospects, consumers, and distributors,
on the phone or in person. I hold meetings in my home and, less
often now, I lead meetings in the homes of my business builders.
I visit stores, do personal growth and lifestyle consults with my
distributors, read and write a lot of emails. I'm just getting into
the whole world of e-business. I enjoy all that I do. I especially
enjoy the freedom of planning my own time.
