I\u2019ve never done anything like what you\u2019ve done. Can I do it?\u201d I want you to think about where you\u2019re at today. Some of you are at a point in your life where you\u2019re just going through the paces. You\u2019re not quite sure what you really want or how to get out of the rat race, but you\u2019re saying you want more. You\u2019re afraid to start something new. I\u2019m guessing that some of you are thinking there\u2019s a lot of risks if you start something. I\u2019m safer if I just stay where I\u2019m at if I just keep working for the company if I just keep doing what I\u2019m doing. I want to blow that up with you just a little bit right here.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Are you afraid to start a business?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I know some of you are afraid of starting a business. It\u2019s unknown. You\u2019ve not done it before. You are scared because you could lose money. You should be more afraid of losing time. Money can be replaced, but what you can\u2019t replace is your time. And every day you put off doing something more or better, is a day that you\u2019ll never get back. So I want you to dig in and think about what is it you really want. If you want help in getting to that future, I can help you. You don\u2019t have to do it on your own. I\u2019m willing to show you how.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>How can the RAL Academy help?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Residential Assisted Living (RAL) Academy is all about teaching people how to do this. We come together and we help each other in this. I\u2019ve done it before and I\u2019m willing to show you how, but this idea of \u201cI\u2019m here and I want to get there\u201d, That\u2019s a big gap. Let me hold your hand and walk you through. Some of you are afraid to ask for that help and yet here I am offering that help. I\u2019m here for you. \u00a0\u00a0I can\u2019t help you with everything but I definitely can help you with starting a business, doing something new, senior housing, raising capital, all of those elements that it takes. What we do is bring it all together so that you can do it better, faster and easier.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>What is your motivation?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You have to really think about why you do what you do. If you\u2019re all about the money and the Glitz and the glamour, someday that\u2019s going to wear out. The shine is going to dull. The excitement\u2019s going to go away. Ultimately, what is it you really want? What you really want is likely to have people that love you all around you. You want to have the ability to share with other people what you have, not just your money and your things, but your knowledge, your passion, your encouragement. I can\u2019t make you do it, but I can encourage you. I can give you the information, but again, I\u2019m not going to make you do it. It\u2019s who we are and what we leave behind, the legacy, family, and friends, those people, the what we do and the why we do it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Be sure to subscribe to our iTunes podcast to listen on the go!<a href=\"https:\/\/itunes.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/assisted-living-networks-podcast\/id1360517721?mt=2\">[CLICK HERE]<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-layout-1 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/new.assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27B.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-151\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27B.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27B-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27B-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27B-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/new.assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27C.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-152\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27C.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27C-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27C-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27C-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/new.assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27D.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-153\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27D.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27D-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27D-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/assistedlivingnetwork.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/27D-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Can you start an Assisted Living Business?
