"S" Is For Sacred - Reloaded

I am hella tired. My eyes hurt.

I am writing a business plan - a strategic blueprint and financial road map that will guide prAxis Kettlebell Athletica, Inc. in its first months of operations. I want to create an environment that reflects my vision of athletic training, where I can have fun sharing what I love to do with others. But the fact that I will have creditors and substantial bills means I can't goof around with the bottom line. Because of the overwhelming support from my clients and friends and family and mentors and even the monkeys and bunny rabbits, prAxis is a project that is much larger than a personal undertaking. I am humbled by the enormity of the responsibility, and apprehensive of the amount of work that lies ahead ... I need to remind myself that my dharma is to serve, and my purpose, in this life, is to help others cultivate abundant health and vitality. I pledge to abide by the principles of Sacred Commerce. Yet another reason/excuse to go to
Cafe Gratitude to get dessert. I am planning to pick up a copy of the owners' new book very soon. Can't go wrong with the people who've brought us the most delish raw chocolate cream pie - I Am Bliss!

I have no doubt you will be very successful. and having a business plan is such a great start. I am amazed at how many attempt to start businesses without one. crazy. and nothing has changed my attitude towards the world and my role in more than working for myself. except perhaps having kids but it's close.
can't wait to see what you create, and the sacred commerce books looks like something I have to read.
