How much can you LOVE?

I was driving down I-4 when thoughts about my past came into my mind; from loving my first boyfriend, to loving my ex-husband to loving other special men that have come into my life that I’ll always remember.   As I was driving, it felt like I was watching a movie about my past and I was able to pick something that I loved about each of these men.  I realized that sometimes we love certain people and we have no reason; we just LOVE them.  Sometimes people mistreat you and you still LOVE them.  I always say “I LOVE you but that doesn’t mean I like you.”  Haha…Why?  Because sometimes you don’t “like” what a person does but you still love them.

I believe when you first start a relationship you give so much of yourself and the love just comes from within naturally.   Just thinking about it makes me laugh about all the things that LOVE makes you do.  Things like bending over backwards to support every idea your significant other has, being their rock for them to lean on and being their biggest cheerleader.  You give and don’t expect.  You tolerate everything because you LOVE them and you just want them to love you the same.  We all have different love languages and many don’t understand how some people want to be loved.

Many people get disappointed with the game of love because the minute someone says hello, they think this person likes them or loves them. You have to realize that liking someone is totally different than loving them.  Loving someone means not doing things that would harm or hurt that person.  Just because people are in a relationship doesn’t mean they are truly happy or even love each other.  

Sometimes we find ourselves giving so much and supporting so much but we can’t get the other person to appreciate our efforts or give us the love we deserve.  You know they LOVE you but, not enough to meet your bucket of love.  That’s why before you find yourself disappointed with a relationship; ask yourself this question “How much can I LOVE?”.

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.

A step back..

My life was moving forward with different projects, new opportunities and great ideas.  It was very exciting to experience new levels of success and to share my accomplishments with others.  

I woke up this morning, in early 2014, and began going through my emails.  I came across some information with a promising new opportunity.   The opportunity was to share my business, ideas and future with someone else.   I continued the conversations and emails and discussed possible changes but kept feeling uneasy about the overall situation.  

I’ve always believed deep inside that we know what’s good for us but, sometimes we convince ourselves to do things that are not necessarily beneficial for us.   It took me weeks to realize this proposal was not going to be profitable for either of us and in the end I lost focus of my primary business.   I believe we’re always learning to be more disciplined and make wiser choices.  I’m glad I was able to discover that as much as I want things, sometimes those things don’t benefit my career.

Every now and then it helps to take your emotions and heart out of a situation because they can confuse you at times.   It’s also important for us to step away from the demands of everyday life so that we don’t become overwhelmed.   I believe I have the Super Powers necessary to continue to be better and reach new levels but, I needed to take a step back to put things in perspective so that I could be more productive moving forward.  Don’t be afraid to take a step back.   It is necessary at times! You can do this!

What is work for you..?

                                    When you truly enjoy and love what you do, it doesn’t feel like work…

Recently, I was in my “Aly Bubble” for a few days working on our plans for 2014 and every time my friends and family called my answer was, “I’ll call you back because I’m in the middle of working on my business plan.”  It was a friend of mine that said “Aly, you are always working and you never take a break.  Even at 11pm you are working.”   It was at that moment when I said, “This is not work for me.”

People don’t understand what’s going on in my head.  Many think it’s work; like you go into the office, clock in, do your work and go home.  That’s not what I do.  I explained to my friend how much I enjoy doing what I do.  I’m passionate about creating projects, developing ideas into reality and truly helping people.  When I get home and get back on my laptop it’s because I want to get more information, finish a plan or do some research.  I have trained myself for years to be resourceful, knowledgeable and educated about many different industries.

You see, people don’t realize how I train myself to do what I need to do. You can easily train yourself to sit on the couch and watch TV for hours or go to the library and read books.  You have total control of what you desire to do with your time.  It works the same way with successful athletes.  You have certain athletes that are determined to run longer and practice longer.  You also have certain people that have great skills but don’t do much with them because they create excuses that become barriers between their success and results.

When you truly love what you do, you have no excuses not to be at the office or stay longer than the typical work day.  It becomes a part of your life because it’s fun and enjoyable.  Many people are not trained to work more than 9 to 5 but that doesn’t mean everyone must have a set schedule.  I love the freedom to create ideas from my bed or at the office.  I can be at the office at 11:00am if I want to or leave at midnight if needed.  A business is not like a job.  You are the creator and the daily growth of your future depends on YOU!

Pet Love!

                                      You’ll never know pet love until you share your love with a pet… 

I have so many great memories from my childhood.  Growing up, in Puerto Rico, we always had Chihuahuas and when I was twelve years old we had two Chihuahuas named Popi and Mota.  Mota was a female and she was my sister’s favorite.  Popi was a male and he was mine.  We loved Popi and Mota so much; they were our family.  That summer we traveled to Orlando, Florida to visit our family.  My father stayed behind to watch over the dogs and plus he was needed at work.   Sadly, while we were gone Popi passed away.  I’ll never forget the day when my mom said to me, “Popi is dead.”  It was the first time in my life that I experienced the pain of a broken heart.

Several years later, we moved to Florida and had been living there for a few years when my sister’s boyfriend gave her a small gift bag that held the cutest Chihuahua named Macho.  Macho was a very special dog and the minute you walked in the door, he was seated waiting to greet you “welcome home.”  We shared so many special moments with him up until he passed away in October 2007 due to heart complications. Then we had another special addition to our family that joined us in 2008.  Her name was Nina.  She was a beautiful Pit-bull that lived with me for some time.   She belonged to Sam, my brother-in-law, and she was so adorable.  She spent the night with me many times when I was scared about lizards coming into the house.  Nina was very active and playful until she started having health complications with diabetes and passed away in Feb 2013.

Today, we are happy to share our love with two new family members.  Bowser The King, a Chihuahua, moved into the Sanchez household last March 2013.  He lives with my sister and we are training him to be gentle with his love.  He loves you so much that he can’t control his excitement sometimes. J  BEBO, The Prince, also a Chihuahua, moved into the GOALYGO household in Jan 2014.   He is Bowser’s brother.  Bebo is so adorable and growing fast.  We grow closer every day and have our own special mother-puppy love language. 

I wasn’t expecting to ever have another dog in my life after losing Popi.  I realized that I didn’t want to be hurt again. It was the first time I experienced love towards a pet and losing that love also came with a sense of abandonment.  I was devastated.  I never knew how much losing Popi affected me until recently when I welcomed Bebo home. He looked at me so fearful and I couldn’t help but say to him “I can’t leave you behind, welcome home.”  On our way home that night, I felt that special love again and a sense of support, loyalty and caring.  There he was in my house checking things out and I said “Not sure what your name’s gonna be but, you are my bebo.”  As soon as I said that his ears perked up, his eyes got big and I said “that’s it, BEBO, that’s your name.”  Since then, we are developing a unique relationship.  After 24 years of having lost Popi and being afraid to love again, I remember once more how special pet love is. A love that’s priceless.   Bebo brought back special memories and his heart to my house. I look forward to sharing many years with him and celebrating many birthdays.

Welcome Home Bebo!  This is GOALYGO!

P.S.  He is very curious lately.  To prove it, the following characters were typed by him while I wrote this blog!:0)~
