Meet Nicki
Hi, Nicki here. When I thought about what I should include in a page about me, I got to thinking about how I got from ‘there’ to ‘here’. What has made me who I am now? Well, here’s what I came up with.
Each life has defining moments – ones that cause us to change and grow. Likely you, just like me, have had quite a few of those over the years.
One of my first defining moments was when I left our small town at the age of 17 to start my university education in the big city of Vancouver, BC. What a scary thing for a shy farm girl, but also the start of several memorable years. I found new friends, new loves, new confidence and new possibilities.
Life Lesson: Only by testing our inner edges can we learn to soar.
Another defining moment was when I faced my first class of students. They were mine for the year. What a responsibility! It was a year of growth, both for them and me. I found I loved working with children, helping them see what the world had to offer.
Life Lesson: Teaching others and helping them grow is rewarding and fulfilling… and fun!
Meeting my husband, Dennis, and marrying him certainly helped define who I am. I have learned so much from him over the years. He’s a perfect example of someone who is most in tune with himself when he is sharing and giving. For many years we’ve worked as a team, first in our photography business and now in building an online presence. We found we had complementing talents, and made a good team.
Life Lesson: Find a soul mate to work beside and learn with. Work from your strengths.
Artistic creativity has played a big part in my life. As a child, gardening was a major chore. Now it has become one of my creative outlets and passions. I share my joy on my gardening blog, “Through Nana’s Garden Gate.” Writing for Ezine Articles, and completing their 100 Articles in 100 Days challenge has earned me status as an expert writer.
Currently, my creative side has turned to watercolor painting. I find my artist’s eye sees so much more around me than I once did. I am passionate about exploring and sharing that vision.
Life Lesson: Discover and follow your passions, and how you see the world will change.
Dennis and I worked hard for several years, built up a very successful business, and sold it in 1994. Although we had done well, taxes took a huge chunk. And the guess what… the world and the economy changed. We realized we’d need to do something to supplement our income if we wanted to continue living the life we’d enjoyed.
What better way than to start this new chapter on the newest frontier – the internet. We’ve invested the past 3 years in learning online skills for marketing.
The internet has over a 1.7 billion users. It is filled with people searching for something more in their lives, whether it is freedom from the grind of nine to five,or a community of like-minded souls, or to create a legacy for their family. Are you one of the searchers?
Life Lesson: Always be open to learning and change. The change curves in life are really amazing possibility curves if you see them as I do.
Two years ago, we found our community, ProU. With daily training and inspiration, it is geared to mentoring entrepreneurs at every level of accomplishment. The millionaire mentors who help us are available to anyone who has a desire to change their results.
Our mission today is to assist others by mentoring them to step into their own new adventure… so that they too can create the life of their choice.
Life Lesson: True happiness in life is becoming all you can be so you can inspire others to live their best life.
