It's Not Where You Start, It's Where You Finish!: The Success Secrets of a Top Member of the Mary Kay Independent Sales Force
"An inspirational tale of hard work and success against the odds

In 1979, Gillian Hennessy-Ortega came to the United States with nothing but $20 in her pocket and a desire to succeed. In less than twelve years, she realized that dream, becoming a National Sales Director of one of America’s best-known and most iconic businesses, Mary Kay.

A story of immigrant aspiration and the success that comes with hard work–and a story of the American Dream fulfilled–this inspirational business tale begins with Hennessy-Ortega’s first dramatic sighting of the Statue of Liberty and her recognition of the possibilities now open to her in her new country. She traces the arc of her career from nobody to somebody, from low-level salesperson to National Sales Director, and from helpless immigrant to empowered businesswoman. Along the way, she recalls what she learned from those women who inspired her during her journey–her mother, her childhood nanny, and Mary Kay Ash herself. It’s Not Where You Start, It’s Where You Finish! imparts timeless lessons on perseverance and hard work–and will resonate in the hearts of immigrants, businesspeople, and everyone with a dream to fulfill.

It's Not Where You Start, It's Where You Finish


Chapter One

Taking Charge of My Life

In some ways, I was at the end of a journey. In others, it was just a beginning. As the jet turned to land at JFK International airport in New York, I looked out the window and caught a glimpse of the Statue of Liberty. There she was, standing majestically as if watching over this great land.

I had long dreamed of coming to America to discover my destiny. Although my return ticket was dated almost exactly one year from today, I knew in my heart that this was to be more than just a year. It was going to be the beginning of my new life and my future. As scared and alone as I felt, I also had feelings of exhilaration and anticipation. I was coming to America to discover my American dream.

The day I arrived in America, I was eighteen years old, had only $20 in my pocket, and a dream in my heart. I had accepted a position as a nanny and I was to be paid the generous sum of $20 per week, plus the use of the family car. While that might not seem like much to most people, to me it was a lot. I had grown up in Cork City, Ireland, under emotionally and financially challenging circumstances, so this opportunity seemed ... read full excerpt from It's Not Where You Start, It's Where You Finish!: The Success Secrets of a Top Member of the Mary Kay Independent Sales Force ebook
