I had a say go be do while I was at a doTERRA convention. They were talking about how they are beginning to have success in other countries and they mentioned Latin America. My husband has a Bachelors degree in Latin American Studies and an MBA. I thought to myself, "Huh. He should get a job working for doTERRA in Latin American sales." It was just a random thought, but it wouldn't leave me. So then I began to think, "Is this a Say, Go,Be, Do?" and I said a silent prayer in my heart. I said to my father in heaven that if he wanted my husband to apply for a job with doTERRA then to please let me run into the Director of Sales for Latin America. Now, you have to understand I have no rank at doTERRA. I was sitting in the middle of 7,000 other people and all of the directors were way in the front. The chances of my seeing this guy were slim-to-none and I knew it. Yet, not two minutes after my prayer, the Director of Latin America walked down the aisle two rows ahead of me. I followed him with my eyes until I saw him sit down. My heart began to race and I felt like I should go talk to him. If I hadn't just listened to the Say, Go, Be, Do LEMI call on my way to the convention I think I would have told myself I was silly and to forget it. Besides, I NEVER do things like that. I hate approaching anyone whom I feel inferior to. This man is ultra successful and who am I to ask him if he'd like to look at my husband's resume?! Well...I just sat there for another 15 min, until the session was over and it was time to break for lunch. But, instead of getting up and leaving quickly like I usually do at conventions, I stayed in my seat. I waited. I was nervous. But, when I saw him coming down the aisle again I yelled in my head, "SAY, GO, BE, DO!" and I walked up to that man and asked him if he needed some help in Latin American Sales! I was so embarrassed and I'm sure I was rather awkward, but I did it! Boy it was hard...but I did it! Now, we'll have to wait and watch and see what that was all about. Maybe it will come to naught, but maybe it was meant to be.
BTW - this is Taylene (I'm Defender of Freedom)
Way to go, Taylene!! I totally relate to heart racing. Some of my most powerful and life changing Say Go Be Dos have happened that way. Thanks for joining us on the blog and journey.
