Is There Really A Secret??

 I was the only one who had some, Faith that is. I had no mother to get wisdom from, I had no friends to depend on never knew my father till I was thirty so I took my chances. Writing was hard, I had no writing degree what was I thinking? their must be thousands of talented writers waiting for the shot I  needed.
   I didn't come from a family of means, Quite the opposite. In my pain I found peace writing was my only escape. I started writing to live the life I couldn't. I was jealous of anyone who had family. Don't get me wrong I had my Grandma, but she was not my mother. There isn't a substitute. I was jealous of anyone who  lived  better than me. One day I picked up a pen I had an overwhelming urge that I could be a writer,
    We work hard at jobs we hate, We Gossip about people who have more, one year later where are you? still  complaining about the boss you hate. Still in that relationship that's going nowhere.
     This is just a few tips that I have learned along the way.. Like you I have read every self help book I could put my hands on. They all seem to say the same thing:
1. Get started
2. don't give up
3 make a plan
4.persistance

Ok so how many are rich from the SECRET? what is the Secret to massive wealth? I realized what these books had in common - PERSISTANCE. You have to fight for what you want. keep your dream in front daily but work hard at your current job. you must  shed some pounds. shed some weight, you heard right. Let go of anything and anybody who is not moving in your direction.
   I lost loved ones on this journey I lost friends who was secretly envious. I gained more than I lost, I began to do what the other 90% wasn't. I changed my thought and that's hard. Oh! you say its not, try going 14 days without thinking or saying anything negative. Fast forward I tried everything to keep close friends associated with me while writing. I noticed when your going up the ladder  faster than your friends and family it's a problem. Well Bloopy was seven years in the making. I had a husband and children while juggling a 9 to 5. Hey sounds like most Americans. As I said there is nothing special about me except I got tired of saying what I could do. I was tired of waiting on someone to help me so I helped myself. This is for anyone who is tired of being tired. No matter what has happened you can be who you want to be.

Just Do IT

good morning parents,       This is Nike slogan. I live my life like the slogan. Like many, I have been to  seminars that promised many things. I have read all the self help books, and I do mean all. I want to tell you about a book  called" the lazy man way to riches". I read this book because I was tired of being broke. The title alone caught my eye. The book was the basic get rich but it showed me how. I then read Wallace D. Wattles which lead me to turning my life around.      I would like to say we give up to quick on our dreams. We try things for  a minute or two then its over. Like many I wanted something for nothing. I wanted money because I assumed if I had enough  the bills would  go away. I learned you could never have enough. It seems the more money the more problems. I learned  persistence. On many occasions if I tried something and it didn't work I moved on. I became the jack of everything master of nothing. Fi...

The Urban Hot Pot

 My family and I decided to try a new restaurant. We chose a place in Chesapeake, VA, next to Plato's Closet on Volvo Drive. Our server, Li, was exceptional. I must award this establishment five stars as everything, including the service, was outstanding. We indulged in lamb, beef, chicken breast, bok choy, broccoli, rice, and five different types of noodles. We sampled almost everything on the menu, except for cow's throat. Indeed, you read that correctly. On Saturdays, the cost is $31.99, but it's higher during the week. They even have a robot that delivers your drinks. It was my first visit, but definitely not my last. I adore the experience of cooking food right at your table. If you're in search of a family-friendly restaurant, I recommend stopping by and giving it a try.

Self Published Author with a few tips

hello guys I wanted to talk about my book Bloopy. It is so hard to sell books let alone have people come to your site. I have tried many things, most have failed. I decided to tell future authors what I am doing and what I am not. I have no degree in writing, this is just a dream. Can I make this dream come true? I am giving myself one year, I am also a store manager, but writing is my dream. I dream of young children reading my books all around the world.   Let me  say Agents are hard to find. No luck there. I am my own agent. I have learned that when you are self published the big publishing houses want you to sell about 10,000 copies, that is a lot when you are new and your name is just regular.  Some of the first things I learned was to find your target audience, only you know the group you are trying to appeal to. my group happens to be children and mothers. I also found a lot of reasonable sights that help you promote your book for under 100 the first compa...
