Get Back Up
I get knocked down, I get back up again. As many times as necessary. And each time I get back up, I’m stronger, I’m smarter and I’m more confident.

Getting Better Every Day
One thing I’m learning… A step to the right or to the left is still a step forward. I really can’t make a wrong decision. Making the decision is at least moving forward. Sitting in my decision and not making it, is standing still. And that’s a quick way to get no where. Continue reading

Adventures in Homeschool
I don’t talk about homeschooling much. It can be such a controversial subject. It’s a battle I just don’t want to spend my time fighting. It works for us. It may not work for you. I believe everyone should have a choice. I don’t want to beat anyone up for their choice anymore than I want to be beat up for mine.
Occasionally, however, I feel the need to talk about what’s working for us and share what we’ve learned so that it might help someone else as they search for what really works for them.
We’ve been homeschooling for almost 17 years now – we started when Matthew was born in June of 1993. He learned to crawl and walk and talk and figure out how to get what he wants even when I may not want him to have it. Continue reading

My Bright Idea!
…I sat thinking about my passions and asked myself the question, “If I could do ANYTHING, what would I do?” I know it has to involve computers and programming to an extent. I also know it has to be helping people. I will never be satisfied if I’m not helping someone. And it would have to involve teaching. I really have a passion for teaching, as I’ve explained before, because I feel that that’s the way I learn the most.
It hit me that I could start a community where I helped people start living their dreams. I believe that many people don’t feel that they can live their dreams because something is holding them back. Usually, that’s money. In my line of work, I’ve watched many people make millions of dollars online. I’ve even helped them do it. I KNOW it can be done. And I know HOW it’s done. I’ve been studying this stuff for a long time and I KNOW how it all works.
I truly believe that to live our dreams, we must help others live their dreams. I started thinking of ways that I could help. I could teach web building classes, which I’m already doing. That is going well and I hope to continue to do that, but the way I’m doing it now, it’s hard to tell how everyone is doing. There are so many people in the group, that if they were to all respond, it would be chaos. I have to make a better way. Right now, I can’t make that personal connection that I want to have… Continue reading

Lessons from the Puzzle (Fitting the Pieces Together)
When I look back over my life, it seems as though one day I woke up and my life looked like a puzzle I had just opened and poured out of the box (My Sister helped me to see it this way). All the pieces were there, but they were a jumbled mess. Some were upside down and all I could see was the brown cardboard backing. Others were hidden under the other pieces. But, they were all there…
The problem I used to have was that I didn’t realize that I needed clarity. As a matter of fact, I was so busy blaming every body for taking my pieces or dumping me out of the box, that I never realized that all my pieces were there. When I finally realized that the pieces are there, and that I just needed to turn them around and get them in the right place, my life started getting better and clearer. The greatest part is that the more pieces I put in place, the fewer misplaced pieces there are left. It also makes finding the spots for those pieces a lot easier too. Continue reading
