I have received messages, emails and what not from people saying they have been inspired or motivated. I received a message on BEBO from someone saying that because of me, there is a girl who has been motivated to hit the gym every day. I ran into a lady at a dance who came up to me and said she watches my Zumba video I uploaded of me and the WVC ladies. She told me she works out to our video. She was so proud. You could just tell by her excitement.
These messages, emails and encounters with people bring me joy and happiness. Not because I am their 'so-called inspiration' but because I know I have been able to help someone. Help them change and improve their health. I am in no way an expert and don't claim to be. All I can do is share my experience of what has worked for me. Really if you think about it, we all know the basics to a healthier lifestyle. A lot of it is common sense.
I am sometimes asked what do I get out of doing a coupon or Zumba class? My response - nothing. Just the mere fact that I was able to help someone. I was also asked, well, you helped all these people, where are they when you need help? I said, I didn't ask them to come help me and I'm sure they would've...but at the same time, that's not why I helped them. If you are going to truly perform service to help those around, one should'nt expect anything in return.
So, get out there -- live your dream! Accomplish your goals! Don't let anyone tell you differently. And do some good!

you really are an inspiration! I agree when you say if you are going to serve someone don't expect anything in return, just the self fulfillment of doing so is enough! Congradulations!
