If Money Were No Option, What Would You Be Doing Right Now?

Abbey and Brian Cook

June 7, 2011

Title: Directors

People choose Shaklee for a variety of different reasons - extra money, an opportunity to be your own boss, the chance to earn exciting incentives like trips and a car payment. But like Abbey and Brian Cook (Directors in Indiana) often the most enduring reasons are the most personal.

It was mid October, 2010, when Abbey was at a very low point in her life. She was driving ten hours a week to go to a teaching position she was rapidly beginning to hate and her husband Brian was working as a Tennis Pro. He was home during the day but had to work most nights. They had an eight month old baby at home, and Abbey was only getting to see her for an hour and a half each day. 

That weekend at church their pastor asked, "If money was no option, what would you be doing right now?" Abbey knew in her heart what her answer was - staying home with her daughter, Lenora.

So she posted this same question as her Facebook status, and a friend from college answered, "The same thing I am doing now, staying home with my kids, earning money and exotic trips, and qualifying for a car bonus." 

The day her friend from college told her about the Shaklee Dream Plan was the beginning of the hope that Abbey needed.

Abbey and Brian are now three months into the Dream Plan and have made Director, the first leadership rank in Shaklee. The past three months have helped then develop a priceless friendship and family with their Shaklee team. Abbey says they are so motivated and excited to share the gift of Shaklee with all they meet.

So I ask you: If money were no option, what would you be doing right now?

Success is Not for the Faint of Heart

To achieve your dreams, you'll have to overcome obstacles and conquer fear, self-doubt, and worry.

You'll have to undo negative childhood programming...and contend with criticism, nay-saying, and perhaps even sabotage of others.

You may contend with financial pressures or even bankruptcy. You may be blindsided by illness or tragedy.

The deciding factor in whether you give up or succeed in the face of these challenges is the level of your determination.

Average people have a limit to how much they want to commit to achieving their goals. When the journey becomes too hard, they give up their dreams and settle for a smaller level of success than what they deserve.

High achievers are relentless. They are determined to succeed no matter what it takes. Whatever it takes!!!

Another Shaklee Success Story

Catherine Whitcher, Shaklee Success Story

Director, IL

Former/Current Career: Special Education Consultant/Blogger
Catherine believes in sharing her story to help others. It all began three years ago when Catherine's youngest daughter began experiencing health challenges. After an almost two year ordeal with their daughter, they emerged with a new found dedication to wellness and a mission to share that same passion for wellness with others.

During their daughter's ordeal, the Whitchers began looking at ridding their home of toxins from obvious sources, including home cleaning products. "We saw Roger on Oprah^®, who promised us safe products for our entire home and family," says Catherine.  "Shaklee soon became a staple in our home and a part of our plan to create a safer environment for our children."

Because their daughter was diagnosed with a disability, the Whitchers wanted to do more to spread the word within the Special Needs community. "As a Special Needs Advocate for the past 14 years, I knew there was power in sharing online and began a parent-focused blog, Mission: Clean Kids.  It became our family's way of showing others how the choices they make each day can impact their child's and family health, both now and into the future."

Besides Catherine's professional connection in the special education world, she has added insight closer to home—her brother Robert Bagdonas (2 Star Distributor, IL), who has Down Syndrome. "So many places in the community have given up on showing persons with disabilities a path for success. After Robert experienced Shaklee products and created his own Shaklee story of health, he also wanted to have his own Shaklee business. We are proud to be a team!"

Seeing Robert's success with Shaklee has confirmed Catherine's mission of health and safety in the disability community. "Janis Bautz (Distributor, IL), owner of BDI Playhouse, which provides multiple therapies for children with disabilities, was open to the Shaklee opportunity and became a GOLD Ambassador on my team.  Through conversations with Janis, we discovered that Robert would be a perfect fit for providing cleaning services to her facilities using Shaklee products. Robert already knew how to use the products effectively and enjoys the opportunity to be in the community."

Catherine's long-term vision is to continue to lead families, specifically those with disabilities, on a path of wellness as well as share the Shaklee opportunity as a vehicle for creating lives without limits for persons of all abilities and their families.  "We have some big goals – we want to bring Shaklee into several community disability organizations by educating people on the Shaklee Difference™ and sharing our own success stories...as we work toward FastTRACK Executive Coordinator!"

Catherine's brother Robert will also be continuing his business growth by introducing Shaklee to as many people as possible. "Robert needs our family's support to grow his business, but that's part of the Shaklee fun!  He feels great on his Shaklee supplements, is creating extra income as a GOLD Ambassador and enjoys the challenge of commercial cleaning with Shaklee."
