Hello and Thank You For Visiting My Website!
My story of failure, then success in my Home Based Business
In 2007, long after I raised my family, I was blessed to find myself in a foreign country with a new opportunity to help open a pathway for some very precious people. But this required resources and skills I did not yet possess. How could I work at home to support myself in a foreign country? I had tried a home based business years ago, with only limited success, but I was willing to give it another go though I hadn’t a clue how to proceed. But I knew the internet was the answer.
For two years I struggled with my new business, with meager results. Yet I knew many were experiencing wild success. What did they know that I didn’t? The internet is a vast wilderness of information and claims and promises. How to sift through and find the gold? But this time of searching, small successes, and big failures was fruitful – I became expert at knowing what does NOT work! I was near to quitting, which had serious consequences, for more than just me.
Then God smiled and I met Dani Johnson who imparted a wisdom – invest in myself! Acquire new skill sets! Build a mastermind group of experts who had already achieved what I was going for. I read and studied and pursued each new thing I could find that offered a glimmer of light. But more time passed with no results and I was near to quitting – something serious – for more than just me.
It all came together recently when at last I met the mentors possessing the missing information I needed. Two years of searching allowed me to immediately grasp what I was looking at – the leaders who would help me forge these new skills, because they had done it themselves, from the ground up.
In my blog I speak of my journey back from a difficult time and how I am healing, growing and expanding. I want to share this with others who face similar challenges, so it can be known that anything is possible with enough faith, determination, persistence, and the right teachers.
Life will never stop bringing new challenges, yet new doors are always opening. I now live in Romania with my beloved adopted Romanian family. I am learning and teaching all I can about using the internet to give my Romanian boys the opportunities they deserve.
A bit of personal stuff, I play a little cello, and I LOVE rock music! Cooking is a great passion, as is writing. I love computer games and I am quite lethal in Half Life! I have a bachelor’s degree in anthropology, did quite a bit of grad work, and I am learning the beautiful and complex Romanian language. I am mother to the magnificent Mark, Matt, Dave and Daniel, and grandmother to Tobias, Lily, Max, and Dwyn, and proud and loving owner of Mr. Beeps, the world’s smartest chihuahua, and keeper of the memory of Peaches, my little Princess, April 1994-October 2009
