原文
When I was nine years old living in a smaIl town in
North Carolina I found an ad for selling greeting cards in the
back of a children’s magazine．I thought to myself I can do
this．I begged my mother to let me send for the kit．Two weeks
later when the kit arrived，I ripped off the brown paper wrapper，
grabbed the cards and dashed from the house．Three hours later．I
returned home with no card and a pocket full of money
proclaiming，“Mama．all the people couldn’t wait to buy my
cards！”A salesperson was born．when I was twelve years old，
my father took me to see Zig Ziegler．I remember sitting in
that dark auditorium listening to Mr，Zigler raise everyone’s
spirits up to the ceiling，I left there feeling like I could
do anything．When we got to the car，I turned to my father and
said．“Dad．I want to make people feel like that．”My father
asked me what I meant．”I want to be a motivational speaker
just like Mr．Zigler，“I replied．A dream was born．
Recently，I began pursuing my dream of motivating
others．After a four-year relationship with a major furtune
100company beginning as a salestrainer and ending as a regional
sales manager，I left the company at the height of my career，
Many people were astounded that I would leave after earning
a six-figure income．And they asked why I would risk everything
for a dream．
I made my decision to start my own company and leave
my secure position after attending a regional sales
meeting．The vice-president of our company delivered a speech
that changed my life．He asked us,“If a genie would grant you
three wishes what would they be？”After giving us a moment
to write down the three wishes．he then asked us,”why do you
need a genie ?”I would never forget the empowerment I felt
at that moment．
I realized that everything I had accomplished一
the graduate degree，the successful sales career，speaking
engagements，training and managing for a fortune l00company
had prepared me for this moment．I was ready and did not need
a genie’s help to become a motivational speaker．
When I tearfully told my boss my plans this
incredible leader whom Irespect so much replied,”Precede with
reckless abandon and you will be successful“
Having made that decision，I was immediately
tested．One week after I gave notice，my husband was“laid off
from his job．We had recently bought a new home and needed both
incomes to make the monthly mortgage payment and now we were
done to no income．It was tempting to turn back to my former
company，knowing they wanted me to stays but l was certain that
if I went back，I would never leave．I decided I still wanted
to move forward rather than end up with a mouth full of”if
onlys”later on．A motivational speaker was born．
When l held fast to my dream，even during the tough
times．The miracles really began to happen．In a short time
period my husband found a better job．We didn’t miss a mortgage
payment．And I was able to book several speaking engagements
with new clients．I discovered the incredible power of dreams．I
loved my old job,my peers and the company I left，but it was
time to get on with my dream．To celebrate my success I had
a local artist paint my new offlce as a garden．At the top of
one wall she stenciled,“The world always makes way for the
