Imagine coming to your country's border after driving 4 hours. You are very excited from the conference weekend and are anxious to get home which is an hour away from the border.

Next thing you know, you are pulling in the search bay and your car is being torn apart by 2 guards asking if you would mind if they brought out the dogs.

How would you feel?

You are completely innocent. Why are they bothering you? Did they pick "your number?" Is this an annoying interruption to your drive home?

OR

Even though you are completely innocent, this is an amazing learning experience. Wouldn't it be super to bring out the dogs so you could see them in action. How exciting is this situation to see the guards in action! Watch how they rifle through your things and stop at certain items like opened bag of chips to look for something a little more!

How would you handle it if this happened to you?

A lifetime of successes and challenges has brought me to this pivotal point in my life.

You know what? It's okay to be happy!

It's okay to be happy no matter what is happening. It takes a little work, but you have to be mindful of your emotions and what you are thinking.

Being a survivor has shown me that happiness comes from within. No one else responsible for me.

I am passionate about showing others how to create a life that gives them time, money freedom and happiness that everyone so rightly deserves.

It's all about making a choice. You have the power to make that choice!
