Day 2 Homework:
The 5 D's of your signature story.
D - Discontent - In January, 2019, I was nominated to be the international committee chair at our local chapter.
D - Defining Event - In April, 2019, 4 of the board members ambushed me and told me at a meeting that I was selfish, I did not fit in their group and anyone can do business internationally. They were the people I trusted the most for years. They said they don't need me anymore. They told me to step down. I was hurt. I was confused. I was shamed. What did I do?
D - Decision moment - I was on the board but I was not invited to be in the group. I heard of someone told her story of " you are in the room but you will never have a seat at the table. " I realized it was happening to me....
I went to my car and sat in the parking lot cried for a long long time. I was betray by a group of people I trusted. I decided that I am still going to do what I love the most. ( Doing business internationally. )
D - Discovery - " When a student is ready, a teacher appears. " On May 19, 2023, I attended Dream Builder Live in Dallas, TX. I discovered Mary Morrissey. Her stories and principles connected me. The next day, it was Mat Boggs' talk lighted the little candle inside of my heart. I stepped up. I raised my hand. I feel the calling to be the best I can be. I took the brave step of signing up to be the certified LMC - Life Mastery Consultant.
D - Dream - I am living in my dream.
I learned to forgive those board of directors who back stab me in 2019. Those are my sacred friends. ( they are difficult for me to love and forgive. ) When I saw them again in Seattle, Washington at the annual conference last month, I genuinely wishing them well. I say good morning and hello to them....
Mary's teaching on focusing abundance, saying daily gratitude, practicing Dalie Lama's " Loving Kindness meditation to my sacred friends ", starving my fear, feed my faith.... She said: " A " hero " journey is one story after another about how a person transformed circumstances into empowerment... "
