While Maria’s accomplishments have been monumental, her current life purpose is to share all of that with you so that she can help you excel on your own. After her dedication to discovering truth, overcoming her own fears, what she really cares about is:

  • Doing her part to help you achieve your greatness
  • To help you reach your best at work
  • To help you find happiness at home
  • To help you foster success in your life

What’s Maria’s greatest motivation? When she helps you live your finest life, she gets to feel significant; to feel that she’s making a difference in the world; that she matters; that she’s contributing to the success of mankind.

“That’s truly where so much of my happiness and my life purpose comes from.”

Here’s what Maria does to succeed in her purpose-driven life:

  • I wake up at 6 a.m. five times a week
  • A meditation hour upon waking for personal reflection
  • A well-rounded, healthy diet.
  • A journaling period most days to build self-awareness.
  • A period of reading each day and learning something new everyday
  • Affirmations or Success Statements throughout the day because thoughts are the ancestors of actions
  • A weekly planning and review session on Sunday morning
  • At least one conversation with an interesting person each week to keep my passion high and surround myself with big ideas.
