Like many of you out there, I have always looked for an opportunity to start something to better my living situation be it financial, health, mental well being.  What I have realized (took me a bit) and what most people fail to see is that you need focus determination and to act on goals you set. I have had my fair share of ups and downs, which I will talk about in a bit, but now I am at a great point in my life and just wanted to share how I got here and the road I had to travel to get here, and my future road which I am looking forward to.

Well let's start with my health. I have always liked doing exercise, playing sports and such but there was a point not too long ago that I lost my focus on what I wanted to achieve. I started gaining weight and I finally hit 240 lb. Let's just say for a 5 ‘ 6" guy that is very heavy. I had not set any goals for myself so I was determined to gain weight, in a sense. I know it sounds funny but if you lose your focus on what you need to do to better your health, your goal is to gain weight and you are determined to do that. I can now safely say that my focus is back and I am now determined to follow the goals that I have set to regain my health. I am on my way, I now weigh 190 (literally lost about 15 pounds in the last month) and I feel great.  The diet I am on is strict and I must follow it, but that is another story I will tell another time.

At the time I was 240 lb., my mental well being was also at an all time low. I could not get myself out a hole, which in reality I had dug myself. Don't know about you but it is awfully tough to get out of them holes at least it seems that way when you are in them. Well as I gained a better insight into my weight and started losing pounds you would think my mental well being would also improve, well it did a little. Not enough to climb out of the hole. I was focusing so much on the negative aspects of my life that I forgot the simple good things in life. I started focusing on good things like what a great brother I have (I can tell yah great stuff of how good he is but that is another couple of articles ), I am still able to walk, even simpler , I can still breath. What has been happening to me recently is that my goals are easier to achieve because I make them as small as possible. With my new focus and determination I can achieve my goals, including not dropping into any more of them holes.

While I was dropping into them holes I was also in a bad way when it came to my financial situation. Unemployed, because of health reasons, I struggled trying to find work. Had no goals, or really any determination to get a job. Don't get me wrong, I love to work when I have work. At the time finding work or at least thinking of the interview made me nervous. So occasionally I would just not apply because I thought they would not even call. I am not sure if any of you have felt that way? It is hard to find work when you are not even applying because of self doubt. A while back I had owned a business with my brother. It was a computer sales and service company which we ran for three years. It was running good but we had failed on a few things. We did not set clear goals, so we never really focused on them or determined to achieve them. We also had no clue how to market our product or ourselves. Well our fledgling company did not make. Now fast forward to now, I am in a better place; I have work and have set some solid goals. I am completely focused and determined to achieve them. If I would have had the knowledge I have now, the computer business would still be up and running. It will make reappearance in the future. It is one of my goals. I can happily say my entrepreneurial spirit is alive and well.

The main points you must take away from this is that focus and determination to take action can have great affects in your health, mental, and financial well being. Focus on small positive steps and set your goals the same way and you will see results. Have the determination to follow through with your goals. I can't take all the credit for this transformation I would like to thank my brother and sister in-law (which I will thank further in other articles), and Frank my mentor at a great marketing company.  I have never been clearer about what my goals are and the focus and determination to achieve them. The simple truth is I am proud and happy to be in great marketing community. I am getting so much more out of the community then just expert knowledge and trust me I was fairly clueless when I started. If you want to learn more on what I do now feel free to check out this site Ronny and Luis Marketing Solutions.com , it might open your eyes like it did me. Luis is my brother, like I said he means a lot to me. See you all at my next article.

Sincerely,

Ronny Gonzalez
