Tomorrow Is National Reach As High As You Can Day!

Reach as high as you can, and then reach a little higher.

There you will find magic and possibility.

April 14 is National Reach as High As You Can Day! There are so many ways to fulfill this quest. You might try something you never thought you could, like write a poem, bake an upside-down cake, swim a mile or get on a horse. Some people use this day to literally go high up. They jump on a trampoline or take a ride in a hot air balloon or climb the tallest tree they can muster up the courage to. People often think of Javier Sotomayor of Cuba today, who holds the record for the highest high jump in recent history (1930 – an amazing 8.25 feet!2) Like what Javier did, almost anything is possible but not if you don’t try. If you don’t succeed, at least you won’t have the regret of wondering “what if…”

But for others, this is a day to think about goals and dreams and stretch to make them come true. It’s a celebration holiday that encourages you to do your very best at something new. Try moving out of your comfort zone and that rut you may have been in to reach upward for an amazing experience.

This “reaching” to something bigger and better – and feel bigger and better as a result – is something MONAT strongly encourages. In fact, enhancing self-confidence is part of MONAT’s Vision.

Being involved in a MONAT partnership where you not only get to share your experiences but help others also achieve their goals and realize their dreams is incredibly rewarding. The old saying that it is better to give than to receive is indeed true. That’s why people love to volunteer so much – they get so much out of it.

MONAT is like that. Its core values are family, community, gratitude , giving back… to each other, to the community, to the public at large. With a Mission to help people everywhere enjoy beautiful, healthy, fulfilling lives through exceptional, naturally based products, a fun and rewarding business opportunity, and a culture of family, service, and gratitude, how can it not be enticing to reach as high with MONAT as you can… and keep reaching?

This really is a day to open your horizons and work to accomplish that dream that seems so far away… but reach anyway. It may be as easy as simply picking up the pen, pulling out the baking pan, dipping your toe in the water or putting your foot in that stirrup. All you need to do is start.
