We all have a story.

We have been programmed for either success or failure. Our past may start to either help us or haunt us.

Yes I have many skeletons in my closet. There have been things that happened that made me wonder if I would ever get back to what I deserved. Where does that thought come from?

It comes from the deep recesses of your mind — Your Subconscious Mind. When you can learn to access it, you can start to reprogram it.

No you cannot erase what happened. You cannot erase, the abuse from your childhood. You cannot erase the mistakes you made. You cannot erase the marriages that ended in divorce. You cannot erase the financial problems.

But you can reprogram your mind. I’ve had to do that, several times over. I am not going to bore you with details that no one — including myself wants to rehash. Why? Because I am not going to give that negative energy and more attention.

So here’s the super short story of me — Lot’s of good stuff, lot’s of bad stuff and life happens. I was married and divorced twice, survived an abusive first husband and then struggled financially as a divorced mother of two wonderful children.

I would do it all again — because it is who I am. It made me grow in ways I would never have grown, spiritually, physically and emotionally.

For many years I stayed in survival mode.

I have now learned — to reprogram myself.

Be thankful for what you have; you’ll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don’t have, you will never, ever have enough. Oprah Winfrey

What a journey!

My faith in God, in my family and in the world around me.

I believe that life is good regardless of the external circumstances.

You may not be able to control your circumstances, but you can control how you feel about them. That is the power you need to survive.

That is also the power you need to get out of “survival mode” and start living. Learn to “be happy” — no matter what goes on around you!
