"I've never before in my life felt like I've been on such solid ground." 😊

Recently, I was just minding my own business, chilling out, maxing, relaxing all cool, shooting some b-ball outside of school, when I got the best email I could get right out of the blue.

It was from a former client of mine. Unsolicited. Just letting me know that I'm the bee's knees. 🐝🐝🐝

With permission, I'm sharing it here:

Hi Paul,

​
I was working through my FI/RE-Goal Setting-Get My Life Together spreadsheet and you know what's absolutely bonkers? How much my life has changed for the better over the past year (pandemic aside, obviously). I really think life coaching had a lot to do with it and I just wanted to start my new year by thanking you. I was promoted twice this year and finally landed in the brand management position that has eluded me for years. We managed to have an average savings rate of 57% in the back half of the year. And I got into grad school and will start my MBA this year. I don't really feel like I would have accomplished those goals if not for you helping to patiently coach me through several things holding me back.

​
I've never before in my life felt like I've been on such solid ground.

That my dears, is the sweet, sweet sound of someone out there living their life.

And the sweet, sweet feeling of knowing I'm making a difference in the world.

Now I get to add this email to my triumph folder. The one I turn to when I'm starting to doubt what I'm doing, why I'm doing it, and whether I'm making the right choices in life.

Do you have a triumph folder? Whatcha got in there?
