Clearer Communication With Mama Baker

Posted in Updates - 7 January 2010 - 2 comments

Hello all.
In a life filled with beyond success, it is easy to assume that there are shortcuts on this route. The truth is there are no shortcuts. You have to really stay focused in order to maintain this lifestyle of beyond success. Many have asked me if I consider myself a quick fix type of guru. First of all, I do not consider myself a guru by any means. Secondly, there is no such thing as a quick fix. Any worthwhile goal, intention or whatever you want to call it has it’s own journey. This journey will be filled with ups and downs, it will have it’s share of sometimes overwhelming obstacles. There will be moments of the need for battle, and retreat. But that is the beauty of it all. If you can see the beauty in the midst of the struggle and challenge, you will have come to a place of self actualization. This self actualization is not something that is far out there that only a select few reach. It comes from tuning into who you really are, and facing challenges head on because in doing so you become a better person as a result, filled with authentic experiences and life lessons that allow you to teach others along the way.

Open Communication With My Family While Pursuing My Own Dream

One of the challenges I am currently witnessing in my personal life, is finding a good balance between family and my brand. I am passionate about Baker The Brand, and I also have a family in California that loves and supports me. Finding time to give them a call and tell my mom that I’m eating regularly and dong fine, seems to be a challenge for me. It will begin with open communication and honesty. Calling my mother from time to time, that I’m eating regularly at the age of 25 sounds a bit strange to most people. But that’s the relationship me and my mom have at the moment. My mom doesn’t care how much passive income I make, or how many readers are inspired by my blog post. All she cares about for me is that I’m eating regularly and I’m healthy. So the challenge for me is not to eat regularly (which I’m doing) rather, to communicate to my mother over the phone, that I am eating regularly and I am taking my vitamins, exercising every other day and I’m in good health. Something so small to me, means the world to my mother. So in working on my communication with my mother on something as small as calling in to tell her I’m healthy, makes a big difference in her world. It’s all a matter of me accepting the fact that she is a mother that cares about her son. When I accept this a weight is lifted off my shoulders and her shoulders. We come to a mother son agreement that is successful.

Clearer Communication
I realize that as soon as I got to Arizona that I have slowly neglected this part of my life. Since there are no shortcuts to a beyond successful life, I am aware that I have to make an honest effort to not shortcut an open communication with my mother, as I move along in my own personal development, and upwards success of my brand. If you are in your mid to late 20′s you know how challenging it can be to be taking upward strides in your career or business and having to call a parent that you are healthy and eating regularly. It is all about open and honest communication. There are no shortcuts. In my sincere attempt to keep a balanced lifestyle, I know the road will have its ups and downs, but that’s what I signed up for when I came to this earth. Continue to join me in 2010 on my own personal development as I embark on this beyond successful lifestyle, filled with abundance, joy, personal growth and expansion.
