Gratitude

Welcome to Point of Motivation!

I wanted to start off my blog with the subject of gratitude.  There were many times as I started my business that I stopped and reflected on how I got to where I was.  I didn't get here alone by any means.  There were many critical people in my life that helped me through the ups and downs of starting a business and continue to do so.  I quickly learned the first key in starting a business, have a good support system.  It makes all the difference.  

First of all, I want to thank my dear husband who is not only my best friend and partner but who luckily is very technologically savvy.  My family also deserves a thank you for being my guinea pigs and for instilling in me the work ethics that I have to start this venture.  

Also part of my family, my friends.  I will not list you one by one but know that each of you have been a constant support line for me.  Thanks for letting me call you, sometimes very early in the morning, to talk about life and ideas.  Most of all thanks for being my cheerleaders!  

I have to also thank my "TrySports Family."  I went to get running shoes from the store in Mt. Pleasant 4 years ago and who knew they would be like family to me and my husband as we moved to Charlotte.  Thank you for propelling me into my first triathlon and for your friendship and support as I start my business.  

Lastly, I have been truly blessed to have a number of mentors in Pfizer and now in coaching to show me the ropes of business.  Without you my business would just be an idea but you have helped me make it a reality.  I will be sure to pay it forward.  

In closing, I want to ask you, the reader, to think about who you need to show gratitude towards today and let that person know how much you appreciate them.  A simple thank you goes a long way.
