Careful What You Write About.....

I swear, I need to be careful about what I put in writing.....unless I am very serious about actually wanting it to transpire.....this week alone has really made me remember the power of writing things down, and the intention behind it..........

Just a few days ago, I was given another class. My third for 24Hour Fitness. I showed up at my new Tuesday class, several regulars were already aware I was the permanent instructor for that night, but one lady, who attends fairly regularly, asked me (since I was there for the second Tuesday in a row) if I was taking over the class. I said that I was going to announce it in class, maybe it's a good thing, maybe a bad thing.....but yes, I was the new Tuesday instructor. She looked at me and replied, "No, it's a good thing. Trust me." So that was a good start to my new slot. Coming from someone I don't know.

I introduced myself to the class, and then announced the change. And you know what? I got cheers and applause. I was floored. Not just from my regular pumpers. From others. That made me feel GREAT. G-R-E-A-T.

That same night, Amy, who teaches at PAC, Pacific Athletic Club, sent me an email and asked if I could sub for her on Sunday at 7:40am because she was out of town and couldn't find a sub for her. After a bit of back and forth, looking at a few options, it came down to me accepting it, even though it meant that I would be also teaching my OWN class at 11:15. Oh, and the kicker? PAC is launching the new release, BP77 this weekend, which is a full week earlier than 24HR is launching. The GFM was very understanding of the fact that it was last minute and gave the option of NOT teaching the new release.....but crazy me......I am going for it, even though I am now practicing like crazy, because it is the perfect opportunity for me to do the entire release in advance as practice for my own re-launch next week. But, hello, I am pooped right now.

I also received an email from the GFM there to set up a meeting next week to sign papers allowing me to get on their sub list......even though she hasn't seen me teach. She is going to get feedback from Sunday's participants and with Amy's recommendation.....I may be in! Depends on if I blow this new release or not! Wait - the power of writing. I will NOT blow it. I will be ready, this is an AWESOME release, really tough, but I already have most of the chorey down, just need to fine tune shoulders, abs and get some practice in on lunges. I will be fine.

But back to the power of writing. Here is what I wrote just a couple of days ago:
                              "So......down the road, I will need to look into the opportunity to teach at a different facility, to give some variety, not only to my participants for instructors, but to me for participants. To help me grow as an instructor."

Uh-huh. Get my drift? WOW.  I am officially putting in writing that I am expecting a big return on my taxes when I get them done on Monday, next year we will not lose 10 working days, and the next time I play the Lotto, I will win. Hee Hee.

Time to put the chorey notes under my pillow and go to sleep.
