I’m one of those people who sometimes angers other people with my happiness. When I was younger I worked a meaningless job in a gossip filled mill. I was actually told to stop being so happy because I was making many of the other workers jealous. I managed to win the lottery (not a huge amount of money) and pursued a career in real estate to better myself. I obviously didn’t belong where I was going to get in trouble for being happy.

Many things happened since then, some great, some terrifying. I worked hard and never stopped wondering why things worked the way they did. I had a pretty successful career in Real estate when I decided I wanted something more meaningful and chose to work in human services instead. It worked like magic when I received a job at a safe home for abused and neglected children. A lot less money but more rewarding in other ways.

I learned so much in the ten years I worked in human services, but it wasn’t until I picked up a copy of “THE SECRET” and started making a daily effort to study it’s teachings that my life has changed in a big way. I now realize that it is ok for me to want what is best for me too, not just what is best for everyone else. I just published my first children’s story “Picky Eater That Peter” which I wrote and illustrated. I have The Secret, The Power, Bob Proctor, and Gerry Robert to thank in part for helping me to see things differently so that I could achieve this goal. My husband and I are working on other goals as well. I hope I can be a shining example to anyone else who wants a fantastic life because there is plenty to go around for everyone. Thanks again for all that you are doing.
