My Dream...


It was a dream of mine since I was 14 years old.  The dream to have my very own business.  After working 15 years in Corporate America, I found the courage to pursue my dream but, I also found myself unemployed, divorced, broken-hearted and couldn’t see the light at the end of the tunnel.   Determined to fulfill my dreams, I decided to visit the library and did some research on how to open a business.  I began visiting the library daily, reading different books and using their internet for up to two hours at a time.  I didn’t have the finances to afford internet at home or the resources to afford my own office but, with many hopes and determination I finally decided to open up my own business.

During this journey, many people took advantage of my lack of knowledge and ended up taking money from me.  I came across those that were not willing to share the secrets to success but, I also met people that gave me hope, inspiration and encouragement to take the next step.  I began with running my business out of the trunk of my car, using parking lots to schedule appointments and coffee shops to meet clients.  The library continued to be my resource with very little income to spare for late fees on books.

I learned so many valuable lessons from starting up my own business that it was only natural for me to want to help others and that’s how the GOALYGO Network was born.  I always dreamed of a place where I could feel confident in finding information, resources, connections and guidance on how to start and grow my business.  The GOALYGO Network is home for any entrepreneur.  A place where people can develop new ideas, grow their business and celebrate success.  I’m grateful today because I didn’t give up on my dreams. Today, we are able to share our Business Center with new entrepreneurs and business owners that are looking for ways to grow, taking one step at a time. 

This is GO ALY GO!
