Some of us didn’t have the best past. ‘There’s nothing good back there for me.’

You might be wrong about that. No matter how bad our past, there is some nugget we can pull from to help us on our way. It will propel us forward; give us stamina and determination if we let it. ‘All there is was failure in my past’. Good! Then you can learn what not to do and what doesn’t work. ‘Nobody got along in my family…fights all the time!’ Good! Now you might excel learning new people skills to help others with their family problems.

Every thunderstorm has a rainbow of light somewhere. We just have to look!

‘There’s nothing to help me. I just like to keep house.’ So with that idea mom decided to become an interior designer and made a successful business. Others are really good at cleaning and have made a life helping others. ‘All I know how to do is take care of my dog.’ Good! Start a pet care business – walking and pet sitting for others or maybe become a dog groomer.

‘All my parents did was collect old junk!’ Start a shop in ebay or etsy or maybe in your our garage. Begin selling (maybe even collecting ‘new junk’ to sell). There are lots of people who want your old junk!

‘We didn’t have much growing up – no TV or video games – only books’. Great, you probably have lots of knowledge others might like knowing/hearing about. What could you do, start, create with this situation? I’ve heard it said, ‘everything we need is already inside us’. Find what it is. It can be your best adventure!

We don’t want to get stuck in the past. Use it. Pull from it to create your new future! It is waiting for you to get started.

Let me see…all I have is… But wait!! 🙂
