d:elivered

yesterday luke asked me to do a dbg for him as we drove to atlanta. he'd already answered the same question for me, so of course i obliged. my d was for income generating opportunities as a trainer. i think it's a piscean quality that i believe i can change the world or die trying and since i've become a personal trainer i've been much more interested in the helping aspect than the income aspect. and as such, i've been quick to volunteer and slow to advertise. i have no regrets about that, it's absolutely what i want to do every single time i do it; but in addition lately i've thought about how much i'd like to make some money changing the world.

and then yesterday i got my d. i met with someone about an opportunity to be a trainer this summer at a camp serving inner city children. the camp runs for six weeks, and as a trainer i'll be there an hour a day, four days a week. i'm going to be employed by a non-profit foundation that runs after-school fitness programs at some atlanta high schools. similar to my own philosophy, the organization has realized they can change lives with fitness. and they don't get paid to do it.

they are however paying their trainers. it's not big bucks, but when you'd take the job for free, anything is better than nothing. and even more than the money, there's the excitement and satisfaction of being part of something i can believe in. contributing to an organization in a way that fulfills me and answers a need in the community that is dear to me.

truly i feel as though i was given a gift with this opportunity and it's simply icing on the cake that it was an immediate manifestation of a verbalized desire.

d: abundance
b: i'm open to opportunity
g: immediate manifestation
