Actionist Definition

Everyone can be an Actionist!
Here are some of my definitions of the word:

  1. Someone who motivates and inspires people to take action in their everyday lives.

  2. Someone of any age, race, class, and gender who wants to walk their talk out in the world and lead by example.

  3. Someone willing to do what it takes to make a difference in their lives and in the world at large.
 
Ways to take action

Support a friend/loved one!

Letting a friend or loved one know that you are supporting their choices, can mean a lot.
Knowing that they are supported, gives them and you the strength to keep making those great choices.

Shannah Compton
"Mrs. Money"

Shannah Compton, “Mrs. Money”, is one of the country’s youngest and most successful Gen X financial strategy experts. Entrepreneur and author of the widely circulated and award winning “Financial Strategies for Women” e-zine geared to Young Professional Women, Compton has been a guest speaker at conferences around the country. Although she is only 31, Compton is a true veteran in the business world. At age 19, she founded and ran her own film festival, Hometown Cinema, Inc. Today, she is a partner in an award-winning Los Angeles-based financial services company alongside her father, Stanley L. Compton.

She is nationally recognized for her work aimed at educating her female peers -- the Gen-Xers and Young Professionals -- about the importance of having a sound financial future. Shannah’s message is simple: “You can have your iPod now and retire rich later.” While most experts say save, save, save – good advice by any measure – Shannah has found a way to offer young people a financial plan that will provide them financial security without eliminating their lifestyle so that they can achieve “money magic”.

Shannah’s charge is to arm every Gen X’er with the tools, guidance, education, and strategies to achieve their financial dreams. “My passion is to teach every Gen X’er that no matter what your income is, no matter what your money mistakes are, today is the best day to take control of your financial future!”

Shannah also has over 12 years of marketing and business consulting expertise in such diverse industries including Real Estate, Financial Services, and Entertainment.  Shannah has a strong entrepreneurial spirit, an ability to think outside the box, and a passion for creating unique niche opportunities in all her business ventures.
