The Future Is Now

“You can’t go back and change the beginning, but you can start where you are and change the ending.” ― C.S. Lewis.

The “ending” is your “future,” and YOU get to decide what that is going to be starting right now! That is incredibly exciting and powerful to know that you are in control of your future. You also get to determine how you react to everything that comes your way.

Happy, sad, fulfilled, empty, connected, alone?

The future you want will likely require you to do some things that will make you uncomfortable at times. True growth comes through the challenges you face and the “comfortableness” they create. Embrace that and know that you are in control.

You also have the option to bring others along with you too! You have the ability to choose all of that and to design it starting right now.

Personally I choose to be happy, to be fulfilled, to belong and to be a part of a family. We call that “family” The AL Family.

We are glad you are a part of it too and we are looking forward to our future together! You can’t change the past but you can choose your future starting right now!

Do Good and Do Well,

Gene Guarino,
Founder of the AL Family

A Word From RALNA’s President

The Pandemic Character Test – The Future is Now.

This unprecedented period has been a real test of character for many small business owners. This is especially true for the assisted living business sector. Those who are able to confront the challenges and stay focused on care of the residents are making big strides. Many are even expanding their business and their operations during 2020.

The beauty of the assisted living business is that the owners and operators are constantly focused on NOW. They are focused on the present moment for themselves and the present moment in the lives of their residents.

They are not typically focused on the past.

The pandemic character test is separating out those who have built their future growth into their daily operations, and those who have not.

In both cases, their future is now.

You can focus on daily actions for growth or daily actions to simply handle the daily tasks that life puts on you. It may seem subtle at first, but that change can make a big difference.

As I said, many of our members are thriving and expanding during the Pandemic Character Test. We raise our glass to you and admire you for seizing the day!

Of course, it is not too late to build a future of growth into your daily business operations.

We have many professionals ready to help you seize the day and design business expansion into your daily activities. Once you have done this – your future growth is now.

-Brian Pinkowski
