comments
says: I am retired and reading your story tells a lot of my story even the part about how I got in trouble with the adults because I had different thoughts about how I thought life should belived.
says: I restarted and I am only on day 3, and so far I am liking this challenge, my day at a time. Very few things today grab my attention. It always seems that I can only focus a little at a time. I will keep on 1 day at a time. I would like to be a graduate too. Thanx for be here for me.
says: TOOLS has taught me to challenge my negative thought patterns. It has taught me to control my attitudes. I have learned to see myself as valuable and important in life and that the choices I make are my own. Peace!
says: A big boost for to you for being the strong soul God made you. It never easy. Nothing can happen without a dream first. So make your dream come true. You are the one that can make it happen. So hold on to the path that makes you whole. I know how it is and how it can be because I can see it. Like the light at the end of track. I know you can do or be anyone you want and when all is said and done. The pieces will all fit. Be the mentor. deeplikeariver
says: Tools has made me Self-Aware,of all of my own worthiness and potential. I now have the confidence to achieve my goals and the power to change my own life and future. I have also been able to put the past behind me and start fresth. Micci
says: One of the first things that hit me was that doing "Tools" is an investment in me! I am so worth it. We can invest our time in other thing, and people , but we must not forget(or refuse) to invest in ourselves. If we are empty how can we help others.
says: Amazing. I am in shock. In just 6 days, I have a whole new outlook. Its a little freaky. I keep thinking, this can't be going as well as I think it is...
