Getting in shape is always a big thing for the new year. The gyms are full of people determined to get fit and look better by summer. In a conversation with my son, he informed me of a big day that I have never heard of. Have you heard of National Quitter's Day? I had never heard of it and I couldn’t stop laughing at his explanation of what the day means to him.   In our conversation he explained that he couldn’t wait for January 10th also known as International Quitter’s Day to arrive because he was frustrated by the sudden influx of people crowding the gym—people who, let’s be honest, don’t usually make it past January.  

According to him, you can spot them a mile away. They’re the ones rocking brand-new outfits, squeaky-clean tennis shoes, and spending more time perfecting their selfies than their squats. Every workout is a social media moment, complete with hashtags like #NewYearNewMe and #GymLife. He was counting down the days until National Quitter’s Day so the gym could “return to normal.” Funny thing, my son had given me a pair of new tennis shoes for Christmas and I wanted to take a picture and show him how much I liked them. I made a special note to take the selfie before I got to the gym. I didn’t want to look like one of those people he described.

Back to clarity. Clarity is defined as the quality of being easy to see, hear, or understand. In our lives and businesses, it means focusing on what truly matters—our purpose and priorities. Thinking back to when I first launched Pearls Perfected Institute, I didn’t have the clarity I needed. Entrepreneurship can be overwhelming, especially when you transition from a structured corporate environment. At my old job, I had a clear job description. But as a business owner? Suddenly, I wore every hat.

 

In speaking with one of my mentors, he recommended The One Thing by Gary Keller. It’s a game-changing book based on the following truth…“If you chase two rabbits, you will not catch either one.” The book challenges us to identify the one thing that matters most, the one thing that will make everything else easier or unnecessary.

eople he described.

When it comes to clarity, one of the most important areas to focus on is understanding your purpose or assignment. For me, my purpose has become crystal clear: “To help others teach what they know so others can grow.” This isn’t just a catchy tagline—it’s a mission rooted in my belief that everyone has valuable knowledge and experiences to share. Whether it’s through writing a book, creating a course, or sharing expertise in another way, I’m passionate about helping people uncover the unique lessons they’ve learned and translate them into something that changes lives. Clarity in this purpose has allowed me to stop chasing every opportunity and instead focus on building something meaningful—helping others fulfill their calling to educate and empower.

 

This assignment didn’t come to me overnight. It required reflection, trial and error, and stepping into the unknown. But when I embraced it, everything started to fall into place. There’s a ripple effect that happens when you teach others what you know. You aren’t just sharing information—you’re creating transformation, inspiring growth, and equipping people to take action. That’s what Pearls Perfected Institute is all about. My goal is to create a space where professionals and experts can turn their knowledge into life-changing content, whether that’s through a course, a book, or something entirely new. Helping others teach isn’t just my purpose—it’s the way I fulfill my own calling to make an impact.

This year, I’m embracing clarity with open arms. Pearls Perfected Institute is redefining its mission to focus on four key areas. As part of my focus on clarity, I’ve redesigned my website, and I’d love for you to visit and see what’s new!.

 

At Pearls Perfected Institute, my mission is to “help others teach what they know so others can grow.” This year, I’m focusing on four key areas to make that happen:

 

1. Courses for Clarity and Creation: Offering practical courses on content clarity, creation, and management to help experts share their knowledge effectively and solve real-world problems.
2. Consulting to Get You Unstuck: Providing one-on-one consulting sessions to guide you through roadblocks and keep your creative projects moving forward.
3. Monetize Your Expertise: Empowering professionals to turn their content into income by becoming an instructor or launching their own learning portal.
4. Corporate Learning Solutions: Supporting organizations and experts in building and managing their own academies through tailored Learning Management Services.

 

Whether you’re just starting to share your expertise or looking to expand your reach, these offerings are designed to help you teach with clarity, purpose, and impact.

Clarity isn’t just about seeing the big picture—it’s about knowing which step to take next. As you journey through 2025, I encourage you to seek clarity in your life and work.

Let’s not chase every rabbit this year. Instead, let’s focus on our God-given assignments and embrace the transformative power of clarity.
