Hi everyone. This seems a good time to say something to the community. I have been a member only a short time and am on information overload.

I am still reading Anthony's books, still watching videos, still reading other members' posts.

I have been encouraged, discouraged, hopeful, despairing, and angry, sure that this will never work for me.

There is one thing I am sure of though-I have never been a quitter and once I set my mind on something, I will give it my best shot.

Besides being overwhelmed with new information (most of which is foreign to me) I am sadly lacking in funds. My greatest need at this moment is seed money. I shall take that from my own budget of course, but I am scared all the time that I am making a mistake.

I finally realized this morning that I am planning to do this, and do it well. I am in that place that Anthony's father and mother were in when they lost everything. Something similar has happened to me. I am sick and tired of being in debt and barely scratching by.

I have children who deserve the best. I have grand-children who will soon need higher education. I want this to work, not just for me, although I would like a new truck, but for my family as well.

Finally, I love designing and making quilts. Not only are the tools of that trade expensive, the need for them (quilts) is great. My passion is creating baby quilts for children's hospitals for those little guys who have serious and/or terminal illnesses. To be wrapped in love helps the children and gives pleasure to the parents as well.

I will continue to make those little quilts whether or not I succeed at this new endeavor, but I really want to succeed. Money is a tool to be used for those things that make life better for all. I can't save the world but I can make my little corner of the world a little better a day at a time.

    Attitude Adjustment

    Hi,
    It's me. Just want to say that my attitude has/is changing since I posted this. I don't feel scared anymore. I feel energized. Nothing has changed, really, except that I have more information. I am learning to take one day at a time and do what I can, not fearing the outcome. A wise person once told me to make my plans, make the most informed decisions I could or take action, and leave the results to God.
