My FIVE Big Honkin' Audacious Goals!!!

BHAG, described by Big Daddy of the SHM Club  as the home runs of our goals, are the Life Changing Goals.  Goals that if accomplished could change everything, inspiring us to push beyond out current limitations.  Everyone must have at least one of these in their life as it will be a game changer!  So here are mine:

BHAG Idea #1: Run a marathon - Truth be told, this was actually not something that would have made it to my BHAG list.  I had planned to put a Half on, but the opportunity arose and I said YES because I knew it would be a life changer.  I cannot tell you what just saying yes has done for me.  Granted, I am only three days into training and I know there are going to be really hard days and days that I am not going to have as much excitement and drive to make this happen, but I feel like a different person.  I feel like the me I knew I could be and I can NOT wait to cross that finish line and prove to anyone that every questioned or ever doubted my ability to accomplish this huge challenge that I could do it and I DID do it!  I know that if, let me correct that, WHEN I accomplish this goal it will change my life and my entire direction and I will be a completely different person that Tuesday, June 19th, 2012 when I agreed to do this!
BHAG Idea #2: Start a successful Mary Kay & Stampin' Up Business  - I did technically "start" my stamping business in January, but the key word here in this sentence is successful.  I would like to get to a point that I can meet my sales, recruitment and new customer goals to earn the grand vacation every year with very little effort, because I have a strong customer base, consistent and diverse creativity opportunities available to my customers and great customer service.  As for Mary Kay, again, another reason why Tuesday, 6/19/2012 changed my life as that is the day that I agreed to become a Mary Kay Beauty Consultant.  I am very fortunate that I know and LOVE their Body Care products and would not ever buy any other company's as I have tried many and these are the ones that I always go back to.  I am even more fortunate that I get to go on this journey with one of my favorite and most inspiring person I know - Mary Cotton Richard.  If ever you want to travel and change the world with someone - she is someone to do it with for sure!  (I am also secretly hoping that she will partner with me for my BHAG #5, but she doesn't know it yet!)
BHAG Idea #3: Take a (preferably month long, at least one week) family trip to Latin America, Russia or Africa to volunteer with Cross Cultural Solutions - this is actually a goal of mine to do every year at some point when I make enough money from the two above businesses (so if you are interested in beauty or skin products or crafting products (paper and fabric) for yourself or as a gift for a loved one please comment below and I will hook you up!).  I would ideally like to do this next year either in April over Spring Break, in June just after graduation or over the summer before my oldest heads off to college.  The kids want to go to Disney one last time as a family next year instead (It's not like we won't ever go again as a family, but while my oldest is still living with us.), but I really think that this would be a great send off for each of the kids when they graduate. Fun vs. a Moving trip...post your comments on this one below please...I would love your feedback!   
BHAG Idea #4: Move to West Coast - this is something I have thought about pretty much all of my life, which was just reinforced in 2002 when I went with my daughter to Colorado and just loved it over there and then even more ever since May 2008 when I went on a work trip to LA.  Up until a few weeks ago when I started my mentoring group, I thought this is something that will never really happen but I would really love it to.  Now, I KNOW it will happen, someday hopefully sooner than later.  I have this vision of my dream home and it doesn't fit on the east coast, it only fits out west, so I will be there...someday.
BHAG #5: Start an International Non-Profit Organization for Adults around building their self-esteem, self-worth and bringing joy and positivity into their daily lives so they can become the best person they can be -this club will inspire and encourage people to lead positive, happy, loving and caring lives always striving to be their best, rather than allowing self-hatred, criticism and negativity to control their lives as so many of us do.  I am going to travel the world helping people lead better lives - that is what I am here to do!  I know it because I can feel it and it feels right.

Wow!  That's a lot!  Yet I know I can do it.  It will take time and determination, but I know I can do it!  I need some support so if anything above interests you or is something you have done or are planning please subscribe to your right with your email.   I am going to put this as it's own page for a quick reference for me...and you so please be sure to check it out and leave a comment and let's chat!

Now the important part is picking one to focus on right now.  This is actually hard and very simple at the same time.  It's basically down to the first two because I have already signed up for the marathon and I have already agreed to start up a Stampin' Up! business and a Mary Kay business.  The marathon, however, has a set date that, since I registered for it, I can't change.  The businesses can be on my terms, so....

Yup, you got it!  My first one to tackle is the Walt Disney World Marathon on January 13, 2012!!!  

So now I have a few questions for you:

1. Can you mentor me or give me tips or advice for any of these goals?
2. Have you done what I want to do?
3. Any thoughts on what will be my biggest obstacle(s)?
4. Any thoughts or suggestions on how I will have to change to make this happen?
