Life On The Dirt Road

I live in a big old country home with a wraparound porch on a dirt road surrounded by plenty of land.

There is room for kids and grandkids.

Friends are welcome.

I can sit on my porch in the morning and watch the sun rise, hear the birds sing as they greet the day.

I can drink my coffee and watch the squirrels play and the deer come through the field to feed.

I can sit in the peace and stillness of a country night and listen to the sounds of crickets and watch the fireflies...

And see the eyes of little raccoons watching to see if they might steal some food from the bird feeders.

I travel with my husband to visit family and friends...or just to see our favorite places.

I started in the industry in 1975...

And there have been many times since then when I questioned that decision.

Days when I felt like I would never figure this whole marketing thing out.

But then I would be reminded of why I had started and so I didn't give up.

I just kept moving forward...

Some days a little...
Some days a LOT!

But I never quit.

I just kept plugging away, day after day.

I knew I was progressing, however slowly it may have seemed.

And now, in 2022, my husband and I live life on our terms and enjoy every minute of it!

I don't say this to boast.

It took a long time to get here!

A gal who is living a life she loves on a dirt road in the middle of nowhere.

And that's the point.

I never dreamed of big cars or fancy houses or traveling around the world.

I have EXACTLY what I always wanted.

And isn't that what this business is all about?

The ability to live life the way you want...

To make the choices that are right for you and your family...

And it doesn't matter how long it takes to get there...

As long as you keep moving towards your dream.

If you JUST keep going, those efforts you make, day in, day out, no matter how small, are all bringing you closer to your "dirt road".

My "dirt road" is an actual dirt road. But yours may be a NYC high rise.

An RV that you travel the country in.

A cabin in the mountains.

Endless hotel rooms as you travel the world to see all the places you dreamed of visiting.

Life on the dirt road is above all else about FREEDOM!

I want you to go find yours.

And I want to help you get there.

If you want to run with me, and get on the inside to help grow YOUR business and find your path, join my Marketing Mastery Facebook Group.

The group for people who want FREEDOM above all else!

See you on the inside!

5 Actions That Can Make Your Life Better

Sometimes it can seem like improving your life is an uphill battle, or like digging your way out of a hole in the sand. Things seem to be working more against you than in your favor. The problem, however, could be something very easily fixed. You may be thinking too big.

There are actually a number of fairly small things that you can do to change your outlook, improve your health and make your life better. This post lists only five. Granted some of them take some commitment, but try out a few of these and see if that uphill battle doesn’t get a little easier.

1.         Joining A Social Group

This could be a club, a sports team, a Facebook group, a group centered around a common interest, or just a group of friends that goes out for drinks once a month. The important thing is having friends.

Having friends improves our self-confidence. It gives us a network to help us deal with things like stress, or grief, and it even improves the immune system. All of these things also have secondary benefits. For example, people with strong and healthy social networks have been shown to be more likely to maintain a healthy bodyweight and to live longer than those that don’t have that social support system.

2.         Practicing Your Faith

For quite a while now, many experts have understood that following a religious faith genuinely helps people in a number of ways. It gives us a sense of purpose. It makes us feel like we’re part of something larger than just ourselves. It encourages us to be understanding, forgiving, and generous. It makes our lives better and it makes us better people.

Research consistently shows that finding meaning in life greatly increases our mental and physical health. Many of us benefit from the fellowship we find in our church community.

3.         Learn A New Language

Learning a language like English, Spanish, French, German, or Chinese, can be practical in a business setting, or just while you’re walking around town. Learning any additional language, however, comes with a number of benefits, including helping you to learn and remember other things, and helping you to see things from new perspectives.

Some universities may let you audit classes on foreign languages. Community centers may have classes in foreign language that are open to the public. You may be able to find books on learning new languages at book stores or thrift stores near you, or you could download any number of free or cheap apps to learn another language on your mobile phone, tablet, or computer.

4.         Change Jobs

If you hate your job and your company, you can read this as “quit your job and start over,” but you don’t have to. If you worked hard to get where you are and you like the work that you do, consider a lateral job change in your own company.

See if you can work in a new department for a bit, even if it’s just filling a position while someone is on vacation or while management is looking for someone to fill a spot permanently. Changing jobs provides a nice change of pace, it helps you to understand your own abilities and versatility, and it helps you to understand what the world looks like from someone else’s office.

5.         Go To College

Even if you’ve already been there, or even if you can’t or don’t want to stay for a four-year degree. College is a unique experience where you get to meet new people in an institution specifically dedicated to learning and looking at new ideas.

Even if you’ve already been to college, many find that the experience is quite different when they return later in life, even if it’s just to audit a class.

Some of the things listed in this post are a pretty big commitment. Other things on the list, however, are things that you could do pretty quickly and with little or no financial burden. Give one or all of them a try, and you'll soon find you are on your way to designing your perfect life.
