Hope & Healing After Loss

Roslyn Reynolds is the author of an upcoming book titled, Solo: Getting It All Together When You Suddenly Find Yourself Alone.”   Recently I had the pleasure of interviewing her on the topic of finding healing after loss.

The more I talked with her the more I realized that the steps she used to heal after the loss of her husband, and the steps she now teaches to others would help with any type of loss. I could see how the steps could have helped me recover from rape more quickly.

It would help those who suddenly find themselves empty nesters who found themselves getting lonely.  So we decided then to put a focus on healing from any type of loss.

We recorded the interview.  If you’d like to listen visit the Rich Women Sisterhood podcast page.

By the way, this would be of benefit to anyone who is knows someone close to them who is experiencing loss so you can learn steps to help them recover.

Does anyone have a cloning machine?

I’ve spent the last few weeks trying to get caught up on numerous projects, in fact, I am experiencing project overload.  Sometimes I feel like I am so far behind that I’ll never catch up, but try I must.  I’ve set aside quite a bit lately to tackle some projects that got set aside when I launched Rich Women Sisterhood.

The primary project I have been working on the past two weeks (besides getting caught-up on house work is the new website for iLearningGlobal and members of our team.  I got our personal iLearningGlobal website nearly done, sites done for our team members to use, and working on getting content added (and transferring from the BookWise team website) to the team website.  My goal was to be done by the end of the year on most of that, but that’s tomorrow and the end destination is still quite a ways off.I’m also trying to get podcasts posted from the Rich Women Events we had the past month.  We’ve been experiencing some technical problems with the Rich Women Sisterhood site which is needing major attention.  I’ll be glad when we merge from BETA.  (We were hoping the first part of January).  But, just when it looks like everything is running smooth something happens to cause problems.

Oh how I wish I had a cloning machine! I’ve decided I am so in need of a personal assistant, or virtual assistant.  A housekeeper, a chef, and a tutor for the kids would really come in handy right now as well!

The good news is that what is primarily taking my time is major projects and not recurring tasks so once they are done it’s pretty much done.  But still I am looking for ways to simplify my life.

I did manage to get in a nice vacation the first week of December. We spent a week at the Cliff Lodge at Snowbird, Utah.  It was a wonderful diversion and a much needed one. I posted a few photos here.

Well so there it is - a brief update on my project overload status.

Are You A Victim or Victor? Overcoming a Victim Mentality

If you are a regular reader of this blog you’ll know that I have been sharing some painful events from my past. I’ve been sharing my story with you, not to make you feel sorry for me, but to illustrate what I have learned in anticipation that the information will help others avoid the pitfalls I stumbled upon. Some people would read it and say, “Wow, she’s sure been a victim.” Not me.

Read on to see what I mean…

I’ve been reading the book “The One Minute Millionaire,” written by my mentor, Robert G. Allen and by Mark Victor Hansen. The book is full of millionaire ideas and teachings and in that way is an instruction manual on how to become an enlightened millionaire. At the same time it’s a novel that tells the story of a women named Michelle.

Michelle loses everything and comes in contact with a mentor who teaches her that each person is a potential victim. Everyone has had things happen to them that could bring them down. There is one trait that determines if we will be victorious over the circumstances we face. The ability to learn.

You see, a victim blames outside forces, or themselves for their circumstances. A victor learns from their experiences. I do not regret my past “negative experiences” because of what I learned.

A victor learns from their experiences.

That’s worth repeating. “A victim blames. A victor learns.”

You see, I am victorious. And if you don’t mind I’ll keep sharing the circumstances with you because I can’t wait to get to the victory stage of this blog where I share more of what I learned.

I highly recommend this book. 

To learn how I came in contact with my mentors and about a life-changing business that you can be a part of visit Wealth Wisdom and Success.  Even if you aren’t looking for a business they concepts you’ll learn from being a part of this company are worth every penny. iLearningGlobal - We’re Changing Lives
