Totally Fulfilled
“You know, I’ve done a lot of photography work myself. If you ever need someone for an assignment let me know.” Dan and the client then talked about Dan’s travel experiences, and the client asked him to email some of them to him. Dan did as asked but didn’t hear back from his client and soon forgot about the conversation. A month later, Dan picked up the phone at work. It was a call from a local branch of a travel agency. They were putting together a brochure and needed some- one with photos of beach and mountain locations in the US. They’d heard through a friend that Dan was a good photographer and they’d seen some of his work. Could he put together a portfo- lio and have it sent over? Dan was thrilled. He sent the pictures over to the agency. Eventually, they bought several of his existing shots and asked him if he could go on location to a new Mexican resort on the Yucatan to do some more shots. Dan managed to get the vacation time off from work and did the shoot. Now, three years later as a result of opening his mouth to his client, he’s represented by a top photo agency. He no longer works in the marketing department, and supports himself and his new wife as a freelance travel photographer. He is doing what he was meant to do, what makes his heart feel passion because he voiced that was what he wanted for himself. Dan wasn’t lucky, he didn’t have all kinds of connections, he simply let it be known what he really wanted out of life, and the universe took over. He didn’t just let his dreams ponder in his head, he voiced them, took action and got results. He managed to get over those negative assumptions and Limiting Beliefs that held him back. But it all started with that simple first step—from Thought to Action.
