Several months ago it happened to me&#8230;
I realized&#8230; My business doesn&#8217;t fit me anymore! Oh-my-goodness right!? Breathe Gina, Breathe&#8230;
And, the reality was that it hadn&#8217;t fit me for quite a while but I was so busy (and determined) trying to be something I no longer was I didn&#8217;t see the forest beyond the tree. Oh [...]]]></description>

<p>I realized&#8230; My business doesn&#8217;t fit me anymore! Oh-my-goodness right!? Breathe Gina, Breathe&#8230;</p>
<p>And, the reality was that it hadn&#8217;t fit me for quite a while but I was so busy (and determined) trying to be something I no longer was I didn&#8217;t see the forest beyond the tree. Oh my nose was pressed against it tight&#8230; until now.</p>
<p><strong>So what&#8217;s a girl to do?</strong></p>
<p>I mean what a waste it would be to say goodbye to an existing business. A business that I&#8217;ve invested years into and is profitable too. Right?</p>
<p><strong>I&#8217;m not convinced&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>I believe the bigger waste would be to continue going through the motions to <span style="text-decoration: underline;">maintain</span> something I&#8217;m no longer passionate about.</p>
<p><strong>Maintain&#8230;</strong> there&#8217;s something so <strong>boring and inauthentic</strong> for me in that word. I love to learn and grow and give and make a difference.  To maintain is to be status quo and that is totally not me. And that&#8217;s whether it&#8217;s me doing the maintaining or my team doing it. At the end of the day &#8211; I&#8217;m not growing and thriving.</p>
<p>I deserve better and the people I&#8217;m meant to serve deserve better too.</p>
<p>I have to admit it&#8217;s kinda scary but wicked exciting at the same time!</p>
<p>If I say goodbye to what I&#8217;ve been doing for so long, it feels a little bit like starting from scratch. But, I have a feeling &#8211; a knowing &#8211; that <strong>the passion fueling my new direction will propel me far beyond the success I already have right now.</strong></p>
<p>I&#8217;m excited for this new chapter in my life and my business.</p>
<p>And I&#8217;m SO grateful to be sharing the transition with YOU.</p>
<p><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-2215" title="ginabellinc-screenshot" src="http://www.thenetworkingmasters.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/07/ginabellinc-screenshot-300x173.jpg" alt="ginabellinc-screenshot" width="300" height="173" />My newest site GinaBellinc.com <strong>&#8220;Your Certain Way to Fun, Fame and Fortune!&#8221;</strong> is just the beginning of this journey.</p>
<p>And, rather than say goodbye to our existing companies like The Networking Masters, I&#8217;m re-inventing them to better serve our network and support everyone&#8217;s next steps.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s going to be awesome!!</p>
<p>So stay tuned for all the exciting details&#8230; from <strong>the evolution of The Networking Masters</strong> to all of my amazing new programs and products &#8211; coming soon.</p>
<p>My Best,<br />
