DISILLUSIONMENT LEADS TO SUCCESS
Will Smith has always been amazing to me, but after this video I have a profound admiration for him.
Because I am starting a new business I am constantly looking for inspiration. A good friend of mine, Jeff Holt, has quickly become a great mentor. He has taught me a great deal about building a business by combining both passion and insanity. Yep, insanity…
Like Will said, “realism only leads to mediocracy.” The greatest inventions were not “realistic” at the time they were created.

I am also a strong believer in impacting the lives of others. I want to share the amazing feeling that completely consumes my heart with the people who take my classes. It’s funny, but by simple observation I believe that I can see it “click” with them. Every once in awhile, while I am teaching, I witness a look of complete joy in the moment, and I know that every ounce of pain or stress that person has felt that day is completely gone. I pray that the feeling of peace lasts long past the workout, but if not I am happy knowing that I was able to help that person if even for only one hour.
When people ask me what kind of business I am opening I respond, “a fitness studio.” I try to explain that it’s much more than that, but the classes and services I offer are a completely different concept than the average person “gets.” I know they will have to experience it for themselves to understand it. Otherwise to them I am disillusioned… but I am ok with that.
Katie & Friends,
You have inspired me and been my motivation from day one!! I can’t begin to express how much you have impacted my life! You see, I had a gym membership for 4 years, but rarely went. It was not until Kardiodance, that I became hooked for life!! To combine a workout with dance was pure genius! Not just any dance, but dance with a twist of Katie (she has her own personalized style), one that you can’t get anywhere else! I highly recommend all of her classes: Kardiodance, Team Zumba, Bogafit-just simply Kadifit all together!! :) When taking her classes you definitely forget about all your worries and stress! It is as if you don’t have a care in the world. Katie is a positive role model and a has a huge influence on her students lives! Katie, you always have a radiant smile, charisma, energy, and definitely bring the dance moves!!
