So excited to share this and have tried so hard to find the right words!!!<\/p>\n
When I stop and think how many lives have changed in the past 20 months it is truly surreal and honestly I\u2019m so grateful for the decision to follow my heart, go with my gut and push \u201call the chips in!\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n You see, when I started the journey to invest and go into a new business on my own I had so many people trying to get into my head.\u00a0 Then I had even more saying things behind my back that would of course get right back to me!\u00a0 Despite the fact that\u00a0many tried to discourage me, I knew in my heart that although I had no idea what the future would hold I had to just go! I had to share!\u00a0 I had to stay focused!<\/p>\n A lot of you remember me saying “I’m so glad the dreams and the goals for me and my family are far bigger than winning anyone’s approval!<\/em>”\u00a0 While it hasn’t always been easy to hear the opinions of others it sure has been worth it to pursue the dreams I’ve had for my family and for the friends and team members who share those same goals!<\/p>\n One of the questions I will NEVER forget was “oh, but Mauria what if it doesn’t last?<\/em>”\u00a0 Thank God my brain said “oh, but what if it does?<\/em><\/strong>“<\/p>\n I share this with all of you to encourage you to chase after YOUR<\/em> dreams!\u00a0 Follow YOUR<\/em> heart! Experience freedom! May your days be filled with doing the things you absolutely love! Go confidently in the direction of YOUR<\/em> dreams!\u00a0 Love people where they are but stay true to what you know!\u00a0 Oh and to close with the lyrics to one of my favorite songs.<\/p>\n “You’ve got a voice go make some noise, don’t ever let ’em tell you who you are!”<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n \u2014 Mauria Dillard, Mompreneur<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" So excited to share this and have tried so hard to find the right words!!!
