It has been awhile since I posted last.  I apologize, but I’ve been on a whirl-wind since Thanksgiving.  I was working as hard as I could in December eliminating almost all social activities, including blogging.  We were very busy and I had to preare for the three weeks while I would be away for the holidays.

I went to South Africa, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Ethiopia for three weeks with an intensive itinerary, returned immediately to the CyberStar convention in Scottsdale, came back to work for a week of catch-up, then collapsed from exhaustion and been in bed for three days.  I’m feeling rested, hence today’s blog.

So what did that flurry of activity produce, outside of a life out of balance?  I had my first million dollar GCI (Gross Commission Income) of my career, which is especially rewarding in this challenging market we face and was a goal I’ve had for the past five years.  My goal for this year is to increase my GCI by $200,000 and have a life in balance.

My trip to Africa was amazing.  I went on safari for a week and was steps from lion, cheetah, leopard, elephants, monkeys, zebra, giraffe, hippos, rhinocerous, crocadiles, impala, cape buffalo, wart hogs, hyenna, wildebeest, you name it; spent New Years in Cape Town which is an amazing city, and spent Ethiopian Christmas (Jan. 7th) in Lallibela which was very powerful.

The CyberStar convention has already resulted in three referrals, so the New Year is off to a good start.
