Don’t give up on your dream…
Jack Canfield, author of Chicken Soup for the Soul, pitched his book to over 130 different publishers (his agent dumped him after the 100th rejection) before he found a small publisher who said Yes. Now he has over 250 books to his credit.
Amelia Earhart didn’t fly in a plane until her early 20’s. She had to work several jobs to raise money for flight lessons (and she walked 4 miles from the bus to the airfield). She said “the most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely tenacity. Fears are paper tigers, you can do anything you decide to do.” Amelia was the first female aviator to fly solo across the Atlantic Ocean.
Jack Ma, owner of Alibaba, applied to Harvard 10 times and was denied every time. (He was even rejected from a job at KFC.) He went on to start online companies at the start of the internet, leading to the mega online store Alibaba. He is currently the richest man in Asia.
Oprah Winfrey was raised in poverty. Sexually abused as a young girl, she became pregnant at 14 (the child died in infancy). Despite these difficulties, Oprah followed her passion to be a television reporter and landed a job as a local news anchor at 19 years old. As we know, she went on to become one of the most successful TV personalities of all time, being dubbed the “Queen of All Media.” Oprah is ranked as the richest African American, and greatest black philanthropist, in American history.
Why am I sharing these stories with you? Because the one thing these stories have in common is:
Perseverance
Feng Shui design aligns our inner vision with our outer environment. The results can come quickly, and can be quite powerful.
That said, we need to maintain an attitude of perseverance, because not all dreams take the same amount of time to manifest.
There’s no machine out there that can tell us precisely how long it will take to reach our goals.
However, I firmly believe that any goal can eventually be reached if we simply don’t give up.
So as the days grow shorter and the year winds down, now is the perfect time to refocus on the life you want.
Friday I will send you a special invitation to my Design Your Dream video course, along with a promotional code giving you over 50% off (just for my dear readers).
I’m excited to offer this course to you!
This will only be available for a short time.
So consider which of your dreams you would most like to make progress on this year…and grab that promo code in tomorrow’s email!
You deserve to be happy! 😊
Start with a happy home and see it ripple out to every part of your life.
Warmly,
Reiko
