Tippy Stein

My life journey was designed specifically to teach me how to turn pain into power. I did not always know it, and I did not always like the fact that big waved would wash over me, but in the end I realized, the reason was big.

I graduated from Brooklyn College, in Brooklyn NY. That was a huge accomplishment, but not as big as the day I quite smoking cigarettes.

Look out for my book, "Diamond In The Storm" it is going to be published soon, I have a deadline date of December 22, 2011, but I am working hard to bring it to light before that date. You will find in the book some simple baby steps to look at your wounds, and turn them into your triumph, to overcome the hurt and find that diamond hidden in the obstacles.

I was always told as a kid not to make promises. The logic behind that madness was that, in case something happens and I can't keep that promise, I would have broken a promise, and a promise is something you never break. I will make you a promise with that condition. If something happens to stop me from keeping that promise, that is out of my control, like aliens kidnap me, or I am somehow detained, my promise is going to be put on hold, however, other then that I will keep my promise. To hold your hand and do my best to guide through the pain and into the power.

I will be there every step of the way, until you can stand on your own, and are able to pass it forward, if you so wish.

I grew up in Brooklyn, Flatbush to be specific, If you want to know more about Brooklyn, the movie filmed long ago 'The Lords Of Flatbush' will give you a small taste of what my teens were like.
