As fast as I could hang up the phone, I was writing an email to this Peter person, whoever he was. My instinct was so strong that if I even attempted to deny this calling I figured I might implode. It was so very out of character for me, but I just had to do it. Now let’s just be clear on who I was ten months ago.

I was a pretty girl. I was smart and for the most part, quiet. I was 27 years old. I owned an interior & etheric design company that ran smoothly and easily, as it had since I founded it in 1998. And for the past 3 years of my life I had also lent my marketing skills to building a company that only half of my heart believed in. I yearned to somehow impact the world in a positive way, but didn’t have the guts to step out there and make it happen. I had a wonderful, supportive man in my life and I was engaged to be married and we already owned a home.

To the outside world looking in, my life seemed pretty rosy. After all, I had accomplished so much more than so many young women my age. But in my heart, I knew I was not living my full potential. I knew I had so much more to offer the world than I was currently giving. I felt like I was growing as a person but not at the catapulting level I believed I was capable of. To put it into strange and spiritual words, I felt as though I was not allowing my inner light to shine.

As I began to write that email to Peter, I felt my light beginning to shine. I felt as though it was a perfectly serendipitous moment designed just for me. I poured my heart out in that email, expressing my gratitude for the work Peter was doing, despite the fact that I had never laid eyes on the book yet. It felt like I was being catapulted already and it felt perfect. I clicked Send.

I ordered the book online and then I continued to surf the LifePilot.org website. Eventually I found Peter’s biography and began to read. My eyeballs popped out of my head with each new sentence that I read and soon enough I felt my hand raise up to smack myself on the forehead. This Peter Thomas character, as it turns out, was quite the high-profile man. He had accomplished amazing things and had shaped the world of business as we know it today – and I had just written a silly little email message to him! ‘What a fool you are!’ I thought to myself.
