17
00:01:07.680 --> 00:01:15.159
here's your host div Park. Good
morning listeners. It's Tuesday, my favorite

18
00:01:15.239 --> 00:01:19.560
day of the week because I get
to be with you. So one of

19
00:01:19.599 --> 00:01:25.599
the fascinating stories that happened recently was
that, you know, I was leading

20
00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:34.519
a class and we had people from
different generations and what happened was it was

21
00:01:34.599 --> 00:01:38.920
just fascinating to see how people opened
up and they were complaining against each other.

22
00:01:40.480 --> 00:01:44.599
So younger generation was complaining about the
older generation. Older generation was complaining

23
00:01:44.599 --> 00:01:49.200
about the younger generation. And the
key is that it's important to remember that

24
00:01:49.359 --> 00:02:00.799
societal events and as well as the
technology does shape our thinking. So we

25
00:02:00.799 --> 00:02:07.519
were able to have them handshake and
it was just interesting with the solutions that

26
00:02:07.560 --> 00:02:14.520
they came up with. And the
key is that knowing that how are you

27
00:02:14.840 --> 00:02:20.280
going to impact others? What is
your intention? Because yes, we've got

28
00:02:20.319 --> 00:02:23.560
one life to live, and yes
we want to live a good life,

29
00:02:23.560 --> 00:02:32.280
it's also important to have that life
that you is not only supporting yourself,

30
00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:36.800
it's not only about driving yourself,
but it's also about leaving that impact.

31
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:42.719
And what better way to do that
rather than using both of my books,

32
00:02:43.080 --> 00:02:47.479
because both of the books will position
you to become an influencer in a meaningful

33
00:02:47.520 --> 00:02:53.039
way, not just the numbers in
life. It's about impacting other people's lives

34
00:02:53.080 --> 00:02:58.759
and the entrepreneur's God and building that
relationship with yourself and with others. And

35
00:02:58.919 --> 00:03:07.000
also remember that the partial profits from
the book go to keep it dot org,

36
00:03:07.120 --> 00:03:12.439
where we are helping entrepreneurs all across
the globe. And remember to keep

37
00:03:12.479 --> 00:03:19.800
the kindness circle going because an hour
of your time every month it make a

38
00:03:19.840 --> 00:03:24.960
difference in many people's lives. It
can be just a simple, cheerful good

39
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:30.759
morning. And my friend were walking
on this past Saturday, and this beautiful

40
00:03:30.840 --> 00:03:37.039
lady, you know, she's we
walk on a hike. We were hiking

41
00:03:37.039 --> 00:03:40.680
on a trailer and it's one of
my favorite trails and every time I've been

42
00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:46.800
on that trailer around that time,
she goes by wishing good morning to every

43
00:03:46.960 --> 00:03:51.719
person she comes across, and it
just brings a cheer and a smile to

44
00:03:51.759 --> 00:03:55.719
people's faces. So remember it doesn't
have to be big or huge or a

45
00:03:55.759 --> 00:04:04.439
big gesture. So remember little kindness
goes a long way. So let's bring

46
00:04:04.479 --> 00:04:12.639
in our guest. Welcome, Leah. It is so great to be here.

47
00:04:12.719 --> 00:04:15.360
Thank you so much for inviting me. Now, it's a pleasure to

48
00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:20.199
have you, Celia. You usually
start out in the childhood. Do you

49
00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:26.000
recall a moment or an event or
a person that left a mark on you.

50
00:04:26.439 --> 00:04:32.839
Oh. I had a couple of
fantastic teachers that absolutely completely changed my

51
00:04:33.000 --> 00:04:36.839
life, and I would go back
to those teachers later on. I remember

52
00:04:36.920 --> 00:04:44.480
being in my much later years and
I tried to find my fourth grade teacher

53
00:04:44.959 --> 00:04:48.560
and I tracked her down. It
was sister Marie Bernadette, and I found

54
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:53.639
her in a convent in retirement and
they told me, well, we don't

55
00:04:53.680 --> 00:04:57.480
know how she'll be on the phone. She's had brain surgery to remove a

56
00:04:57.519 --> 00:05:02.399
tumor and she's now eighty six.
And she said, oh, she said,

57
00:05:02.439 --> 00:05:06.079
of course I remember you, and
how is your mother Mary Anne?

58
00:05:06.120 --> 00:05:15.480
And how are your sisters? And
I thought, WHOA. So I just

59
00:05:15.680 --> 00:05:20.319
I was amazed that she remembered me. But my memory of her is what

60
00:05:20.480 --> 00:05:26.120
had changed my life, and what
I felt from her was love. I

61
00:05:26.120 --> 00:05:31.839
think that the most important quality any
teacher can exude is love. Love,

62
00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:36.439
love, love, because that gives
hope to these kids, they feel accepted.

63
00:05:36.519 --> 00:05:43.120
When you don't feel accepted, you
are always in a state of defending

64
00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:48.160
yourself and that is so uncomfortable.
So yes, oh, I remember those

65
00:05:48.199 --> 00:05:53.439
teachers. Well, that was just
fabulous. And I had an unusual childhood

66
00:05:53.519 --> 00:05:58.639
and I'm not I don't want to
extend this question, but I did not

67
00:05:58.879 --> 00:06:04.399
walk until I was set, so
I had a rather extraordinary and not compared

68
00:06:04.399 --> 00:06:10.639
to other kids who had deformities or
disabilities. But I had two club feet

69
00:06:10.680 --> 00:06:15.879
and I had muscles twisted around my
leg, so I could not participate in

70
00:06:15.920 --> 00:06:21.480
games and I did not interact with
kids my age. My mother took me

71
00:06:21.560 --> 00:06:28.839
everywhere in the neighborhood in a little
red wagon and thankfully, that most amazing

72
00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:32.199
thing happened that I was able to
begin walking. And then I felt so

73
00:06:32.319 --> 00:06:36.199
far behind everyone else. I didn't
know how to play kick the can or

74
00:06:36.279 --> 00:06:40.759
baseball or softball or any of the
things the kids knew how to do,

75
00:06:40.800 --> 00:06:44.519
and didn't know how to talk to
the kids, and it was another growth

76
00:06:44.600 --> 00:06:49.120
process. But these teachers were kind, and I think that's what all kids

77
00:06:49.160 --> 00:06:56.240
need. Yeah, now, as
you're talking, and it definitely resonates with

78
00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:00.639
me because I still remember to this
day. We went through so many teachers,

79
00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:06.480
but the teachers that I remember,
Sister Olivia. He was just an

80
00:07:06.519 --> 00:07:12.160
embodiment of kindness as you walked in
the door, and I remember, you

81
00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:16.680
know, it was one of doing
my kindergarten or was great. I don't

82
00:07:16.680 --> 00:07:19.480
remember, you know, when you
are still like a jesting to the school

83
00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:27.079
and finding your way, and she
would just embrace every little child and welcome

84
00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:32.079
them in, and we felt that
we were surrounded in a cocoon of warmth

85
00:07:32.120 --> 00:07:35.920
and love. So I definitely get
what you're saying. So if you're okay,

86
00:07:36.199 --> 00:07:39.680
I would like to kind of go
back. You said that you couldn't

87
00:07:39.720 --> 00:07:42.879
walk, and that must have been
so hot. So what changed that you

88
00:07:43.040 --> 00:07:49.360
could start walking. Well, I
don't even talk about that in a because

89
00:07:49.399 --> 00:07:54.240
I don't want it to sound woo
woo, But all I will say is

90
00:07:54.800 --> 00:08:00.959
I was at a big picnic with
my family and other families from the National

91
00:08:01.000 --> 00:08:07.920
Guard of this unit. And I
always had a an invisible friend, and

92
00:08:07.959 --> 00:08:11.040
I think that that would have been
My mother told me never to tell anyone

93
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:18.680
about that, and just in short, in a three hour period of time,

94
00:08:20.199 --> 00:08:24.120
my invisible friend coaxed me to come
out from under the picnic table where

95
00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:28.800
I generally sat, and I crawled
out and crawled over to see where kids

96
00:08:28.800 --> 00:08:35.480
were running a foot race. It
probably was less than three hours, maybe

97
00:08:35.559 --> 00:08:39.080
about an hour and a half.
But an hour and a half later I

98
00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:43.120
ran a foot race, and not
only ran it, I wanted. And

99
00:08:43.440 --> 00:08:50.799
my mother was speechless, my father
was speechless. It was showing me the

100
00:08:50.879 --> 00:08:56.720
power of all that we cannot see. And I call that quantum intelligence.

101
00:08:56.360 --> 00:09:03.039
I learned that at a very very
young age. I learned the incredible power.

102
00:09:03.639 --> 00:09:07.559
And just the next was three days
later. That was on a Saturday.

103
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:09.759
So on a Monday Tuesday, my
mother took me to the same store

104
00:09:09.799 --> 00:09:15.639
where they had drawn my foot three
weeks earlier. Every year, before the

105
00:09:15.639 --> 00:09:18.080
school year started, they would draw
my foot on a piece of brown paper,

106
00:09:18.480 --> 00:09:22.279
and my foot was generally looking more
like a marshmallow than a foot.

107
00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:28.159
And they drew the new feet and
cut them out with scissors and laid the

108
00:09:28.159 --> 00:09:33.480
new feet on top of the old
feet. And I remember stepping back from

109
00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:39.720
this ottoman where all these four adults
were staring down at what they were looking

110
00:09:39.799 --> 00:09:45.399
at, and nobody said a word, and I'm thinking, I can't tell

111
00:09:45.399 --> 00:09:48.039
them. I can't tell them about
my friend. I can't tell them how

112
00:09:48.039 --> 00:09:52.919
he told me what to do,
and so I didn't. And I believe

113
00:09:54.039 --> 00:09:58.360
that that was given to me to
shape my entire life. And I haven't

114
00:09:58.480 --> 00:10:05.000
used it to perfect advantage my whole
life, because the emotions cause us to

115
00:10:05.159 --> 00:10:13.000
forget what we know or to not
use what we know, which is another

116
00:10:13.240 --> 00:10:16.720
factor. But it was the most
important training I could have had. And

117
00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:22.720
coupling that with the fact that my
family was we had very little money.

118
00:10:24.320 --> 00:10:28.639
My father had worked three jobs,
and everybody thought he had money because he

119
00:10:28.679 --> 00:10:33.799
had a high position in our community, but he was making less than a

120
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:37.039
school teacher, and we knew exactly
what he was making because that was shared

121
00:10:37.080 --> 00:10:43.360
in family conferences. And we were
basically told not to grow too fast because

122
00:10:43.720 --> 00:10:48.559
we couldn't afford new clothes. So
it was, you know, being born

123
00:10:48.759 --> 00:10:58.480
into that made me learn how to
create with my mind. And I felt

124
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:03.679
very bad about asking for anything that
I didn't absolutely have to need, that

125
00:11:03.759 --> 00:11:09.480
I didn't need it for survival.
And I remember this. We're coming upon

126
00:11:09.559 --> 00:11:13.000
the lent season, and I'm sure
I'm hoping that this will be seen year

127
00:11:13.120 --> 00:11:20.159
round, but I've had miracles occur
then, and it sounds like you have

128
00:11:20.240 --> 00:11:24.519
a similar background. At lent.
You give up something, and we didn't

129
00:11:24.559 --> 00:11:26.360
have desserts to give up. All
my friends were giving up desserts, and

130
00:11:26.399 --> 00:11:33.799
I thought, you have dessert,
and so it was something else and I

131
00:11:33.919 --> 00:11:37.799
was. I got the message telling
me go to church after school for twenty

132
00:11:37.840 --> 00:11:41.720
to thirty minutes every single day,
and that's what I did. And I

133
00:11:41.799 --> 00:11:46.759
learned during that time and was guided
during that time how to use my mind

134
00:11:46.159 --> 00:11:52.639
to create what I wanted. But
first I had to get over being having

135
00:11:52.720 --> 00:11:58.919
a sense of guilt for asking for
something that was extraneous to mere survival,

136
00:12:00.919 --> 00:12:05.799
if that makes sense. And I
think so many it's not just me,

137
00:12:05.159 --> 00:12:13.039
it's so many women do not ask
for what they are valued do. They

138
00:12:13.080 --> 00:12:16.960
don't value themselves enough to ask for
what they are worth. And so I'm

139
00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:22.120
convinced this first step of being able
to ask, to form in your mind

140
00:12:22.200 --> 00:12:26.919
the goal you'd like to see happen. Please do that first, and make

141
00:12:26.960 --> 00:12:33.960
sure that you're not feeling guilty about
it. Absolutely, and what did JOHNI?

142
00:12:33.120 --> 00:12:37.200
And thank you for sharing that.
Thank you for being open to sharing

143
00:12:37.240 --> 00:12:41.279
that moment from your life. And
as you said that you crawl underneath,

144
00:12:41.960 --> 00:12:46.840
you crawled out from underneath the table, and how powerful that can mean.

145
00:12:46.960 --> 00:12:52.600
I have heard stories after stories of
miracles, and I can guarantee each and

146
00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:58.039
every one of us have their own
miracles because so many times we forget what

147
00:12:58.080 --> 00:13:01.960
we have achieved and reflect upon lives. Yeah, you think, huh was

148
00:13:03.039 --> 00:13:09.279
that me who did that? And
we forget that that we do have the

149
00:13:09.320 --> 00:13:13.000
support whatever we want to call it, you know, the inner resource,

150
00:13:13.240 --> 00:13:18.399
nature, God, whatever speaks to
you. It's important to do that.

151
00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:22.440
So as you continued growing up,
what did your interest take you? Well,

152
00:13:22.480 --> 00:13:26.360
I knew I wanted to be a
writer from the time I was nine

153
00:13:26.480 --> 00:13:31.320
years old, and I also was
living in a part of the world up

154
00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:35.360
near Canada, in northern Minnesota where
I didn't see anybody making a living as

155
00:13:35.399 --> 00:13:39.799
a writer, didn't know any I
just knew I needed to be a writer.

156
00:13:39.919 --> 00:13:43.320
But I thought I needed to do
something to earn money, and so

157
00:13:43.480 --> 00:13:48.440
I got a law degree, and
I thought, well, I think people

158
00:13:48.480 --> 00:13:52.600
make money at this. I've seen
them. They wear these men wear suits,

159
00:13:52.639 --> 00:13:54.759
and so that's what I think I'll
do. But I had an interest

160
00:13:54.799 --> 00:14:01.200
in so many things. My dad
was a judge and a marine and a

161
00:14:01.399 --> 00:14:11.399
National Guard Army lieutenant colonel eventually,
and he had no sons. And so

162
00:14:11.840 --> 00:14:15.120
the lucky thing for me is I
was one of four daughters, and after

163
00:14:15.200 --> 00:14:18.039
I was able to be more mobile, my dad included me, and what

164
00:14:18.159 --> 00:14:22.519
he would say to my other sisters, Hey, go pick up the sticks

165
00:14:22.519 --> 00:14:24.799
before I mow. Hey we're going
to get on the roof today and do

166
00:14:24.879 --> 00:14:31.240
some shingles. Oh okay, dad, And so I learned to do all

167
00:14:31.320 --> 00:14:37.840
kinds of things. I loved watching
my dad build our house and I was

168
00:14:37.919 --> 00:14:39.919
just very young at the time,
I was seven years old, but it

169
00:14:39.960 --> 00:14:43.240
was just a miracle. Then my
dad continued on and he built a sailboat

170
00:14:43.279 --> 00:14:50.159
in our garage. And learning to
see people make something out of nothing,

171
00:14:50.799 --> 00:14:56.600
that's what I benefited from so much, and that's what I wanted to do,

172
00:14:56.759 --> 00:15:01.240
make something out of nothing. The
other thing I absolutely loved was languages.

173
00:15:01.639 --> 00:15:05.960
And even when I was nine years
old, I was convinced that I

174
00:15:05.080 --> 00:15:13.960
was French, and I also was
convinced that I was American Indian, and

175
00:15:13.200 --> 00:15:16.559
my mother had to correct me several
times, but I said, no,

176
00:15:16.679 --> 00:15:22.399
I am, and I know that
I'm Cherokee and so you don't know what

177
00:15:22.600 --> 00:15:26.639
was speaking to you or if it
was an imagination. Sometimes it's important to

178
00:15:26.720 --> 00:15:31.720
you allow children to just be and
there's so many different phases that they grow

179
00:15:31.720 --> 00:15:37.480
out of it. Oh oh yes, yeah, My seventeen year old daughter

180
00:15:37.639 --> 00:15:43.320
just we celebrated her tenth year anniversary
of her arriving in our home, and

181
00:15:43.360 --> 00:15:48.639
I came across some pictures of her
sitting out on the deck. She was

182
00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:52.720
preparing herself to become a mermaid.
She was seven. She was shaking salt

183
00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:56.799
on her legs. Oh. Yes, we grow out of a lot of

184
00:15:56.840 --> 00:16:02.279
phases. She wanted to be a
mermaid so badly, and I understand that

185
00:16:03.080 --> 00:16:11.919
absolutely. And as you mentioned,
I can definitely see you learning what different

186
00:16:11.919 --> 00:16:14.600
things like, you know, as
your dad was teaching, and I got

187
00:16:14.600 --> 00:16:18.399
to share that I didn't have that. My dad was not very hindy.

188
00:16:18.480 --> 00:16:22.080
So first of all, thank you
to your dad for the services to our

189
00:16:22.120 --> 00:16:30.159
country. And I really appreciate that. Yeah, And as you're talking about

190
00:16:30.200 --> 00:16:33.159
it, you know, when parents
pass on those skill sets, they're so

191
00:16:33.519 --> 00:16:40.159
critical. So my dad passed on
different skill sets to me, and I

192
00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:45.720
see like in our neighborhood, we
have a family with two goals and a

193
00:16:45.759 --> 00:16:52.399
boy and the father is teaching them
all the skill sets. And recently when

194
00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:55.879
I met one of the girls and
she said, oh, yeah, you

195
00:16:55.919 --> 00:17:00.279
know what, I did this with
my house and this and changed to this

196
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:04.880
in my car and all that,
And it's so amazing to see that regardless

197
00:17:04.920 --> 00:17:08.319
whether you're a girl or a boy, or a man or a woman,

198
00:17:08.440 --> 00:17:12.799
if you know how to fix things, it makes life so much easier.

199
00:17:14.680 --> 00:17:18.359
So I know you mentioned about,
like, you know, building houses,

200
00:17:18.039 --> 00:17:25.720
So tell us about how did you
get into that. Well, I was

201
00:17:25.839 --> 00:17:32.240
in a bad situation. I was
divorced and I had no money, and

202
00:17:32.319 --> 00:17:37.000
I thought that I had landed in
an incredible thing. I was living outside

203
00:17:37.039 --> 00:17:41.039
of Atlanta, and I bought a
house where I could assume the mortgage,

204
00:17:41.559 --> 00:17:47.359
which meant here I was single woman. I could get this mortgage and just

205
00:17:47.480 --> 00:17:51.359
keep paying on it. And I
thought, this is the best thing since

206
00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:59.240
slice bread. Well seven years later
I knew what I saw, and I

207
00:17:59.400 --> 00:18:03.119
thought I understood, but I really
didn't understand that this mortgage had an interest

208
00:18:03.200 --> 00:18:08.559
rate that went up and up and
up and up and up, and the

209
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:14.680
principal balance on it did not go
down. It went up and up,

210
00:18:14.759 --> 00:18:19.319
and up I was ready to sell
my house. And then I realized that

211
00:18:19.559 --> 00:18:23.960
if I did, I had to
pay somebody money to get out of it,

212
00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:30.279
because I wasn't going to make any
at all, and so it was

213
00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:34.559
just a terribly bad mortgage. Plus
by the time I had at seven years

214
00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:41.480
into it, I was paying eighteen
point seventy five percent eighteen point seventy five

215
00:18:41.519 --> 00:18:47.240
percent on this tiny house. And
it wasn't that I wasn't grateful. I

216
00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:52.160
was. I was absolutely grateful.
But I also realized that if I sold

217
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:56.119
it, I needed to move somewhere. I needed to have something, and

218
00:18:56.720 --> 00:19:03.359
I did not have. I had
nothing in the bank except for four thousand

219
00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:07.240
dollars after having sold a small motor
home. I owned a little tiny motor

220
00:19:07.240 --> 00:19:12.079
home that took me around the US
and Canada speaking at churches, and so

221
00:19:12.680 --> 00:19:17.240
I had been doing that for a
long time, and I just decided it's

222
00:19:17.240 --> 00:19:19.039
time to sell this and then see
what I can do with it. So

223
00:19:19.119 --> 00:19:23.799
I took my four thousand dollars,
and in the months prior to that,

224
00:19:25.519 --> 00:19:29.480
I had been guided to a place
where I started looking for a piece of

225
00:19:29.559 --> 00:19:33.559
land on a lake, and lucky
me, I found this piece of land.

226
00:19:33.680 --> 00:19:37.359
It really was the most extraordinary thing. I only had to pay one

227
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:41.200
hundred and forty nine dollars a month
to have a piece of land at the

228
00:19:41.319 --> 00:19:44.920
edge of a lake. Wow.
And I said, I've got to do

229
00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:48.200
something. I'm fine with living in
this tent. And what I did to

230
00:19:48.279 --> 00:19:53.079
continue writing my books was I would
go into town and charge up my computer

231
00:19:53.160 --> 00:19:57.960
at a restaurant and then come back
and write until I ran out of juice,

232
00:19:59.039 --> 00:20:02.200
and then I'd go back do it
again. And it was it was

233
00:20:02.279 --> 00:20:07.960
a about an hour long round trip
to do that. So I said,

234
00:20:07.039 --> 00:20:10.880
this is time. I'm going to
build a house. And I had been

235
00:20:10.960 --> 00:20:15.240
sketching houses since I was about eight
or nine years old. It was I

236
00:20:15.279 --> 00:20:19.759
loved it. I loved to design
houses. So I decided to design a

237
00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:25.440
lean to made of wood, basically
something with a shed roof where it's just

238
00:20:25.480 --> 00:20:29.920
this slow, easy thing. Put
it together and I could move into something

239
00:20:30.240 --> 00:20:33.720
other than my tent because the tent
was okay, but it just needed something

240
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:38.400
more. I hired I don't need. I look back on this and think,

241
00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:42.759
how did I even find these guys. I found two carpenters to work

242
00:20:42.799 --> 00:20:47.039
with me, and I convinced a
friend of mine to help, and the

243
00:20:47.079 --> 00:20:52.160
four of us went out to the
property and the trees had already been cleared

244
00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:56.079
about a year before that. It
took me two years to get started on

245
00:20:56.119 --> 00:21:00.759
this after I bought the property.
But on a September the four of us

246
00:21:00.799 --> 00:21:06.519
went out there and started digging holes
to put up this post and beam house.

247
00:21:06.640 --> 00:21:11.319
Meaning you take those posts and bury
them into the ground in concrete,

248
00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:18.200
and that creates a very solid storm
hardy house. And so it's kind of

249
00:21:18.279 --> 00:21:22.559
curious, like do you have to
pour the foundation first? No? No,

250
00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:27.319
And this is the foundation. These
posts. Some of them are cut

251
00:21:27.359 --> 00:21:30.960
off when they're underneath the floor,
and some of them go all the way

252
00:21:32.039 --> 00:21:36.640
up the exterior wall. So if
a storm comes and the house should be

253
00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:40.880
pushed by extreme winds, the house
moves, but it doesn't shove it off

254
00:21:40.920 --> 00:21:45.880
of its foundation, and it can't
lift it up. There is nothing it

255
00:21:45.920 --> 00:21:49.279
can do. You just have to
make sure the roof is on securely with

256
00:21:49.359 --> 00:21:53.440
what we need to put on with
the with the metal fasteners we use now

257
00:21:53.480 --> 00:21:59.119
to have it be tornado proof,
but it's not nothing as proof anything.

258
00:21:59.200 --> 00:22:03.200
We just have to get hardy.
There's hardiness is what we're looking for.

259
00:22:03.279 --> 00:22:08.279
But here's the amazing thing. This
process of building was so fast that we

260
00:22:08.400 --> 00:22:11.279
put the walls on and in the
middle of the whole thing, we were

261
00:22:11.319 --> 00:22:15.759
going to cut off some of these
tall posts, and I said, wait

262
00:22:15.759 --> 00:22:18.720
a minute, wait a minute,
if we leave them, we go up

263
00:22:18.839 --> 00:22:22.519
higher and I could have a second
floor. I could put a sleeping loft

264
00:22:22.599 --> 00:22:25.640
up there. We were able to
get it high enough that not only that,

265
00:22:25.680 --> 00:22:30.200
but I got a bedroom and another
bathroom out of it. We continued

266
00:22:30.200 --> 00:22:34.240
to do the framing with the wood
I already had that I had figured out

267
00:22:34.240 --> 00:22:37.960
how much I needed, and I
ordered it. We put the roof on

268
00:22:38.079 --> 00:22:45.039
it on the fourth day, and
on the fourth night I slept in the

269
00:22:45.119 --> 00:22:49.880
house because it was dried in for
four and a half days is what It

270
00:22:49.920 --> 00:22:55.799
took us. Four and a half
days, and I had a structure to

271
00:22:56.039 --> 00:23:00.799
move my sleeping bag and my dog
into, and it was. It was

272
00:23:00.880 --> 00:23:04.200
extraordinary. And then I put plastic
over all the window openings, and then

273
00:23:04.279 --> 00:23:10.759
in short order, after going to
surplus stores, had got my windows.

274
00:23:10.920 --> 00:23:12.519
I put everything all the windows in. I had one person helping me.

275
00:23:14.240 --> 00:23:19.640
I built. I then taught myself
how to do electrical wiring because my dad,

276
00:23:19.720 --> 00:23:23.400
who was up in Minnesota and I
was in Georgia. My dad said,

277
00:23:23.799 --> 00:23:27.839
just get three books from home Depot
or Lows and you're going to be

278
00:23:27.960 --> 00:23:32.680
able to figure it out. And
I said, what about the big panel.

279
00:23:32.720 --> 00:23:34.519
He said, hire somebody for that, but you can do all the

280
00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:38.440
rest. And I did. And
then I had a plumber come in and

281
00:23:38.480 --> 00:23:41.400
give me an estimate and he said, well, that'll be forty five hundred

282
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:45.880
and I thought, I can't.
I don't have that money. So I

283
00:23:45.920 --> 00:23:48.960
went out and bought another three books. So that took me a little longer

284
00:23:48.960 --> 00:23:55.400
to get ready, but all told, after putting in the electrical wiring,

285
00:23:55.599 --> 00:24:00.599
hiring somebody to do the panel,
putting in the plumbing myself, then putting

286
00:24:00.599 --> 00:24:03.000
in the insulation, and I hired
a man to come in and do the

287
00:24:03.000 --> 00:24:08.480
sheet rock. I had a house. I painted it, I finished it.

288
00:24:08.839 --> 00:24:12.400
I had a gorgeous, two story, two bedroom, too bad house.

289
00:24:12.920 --> 00:24:15.920
And when I went back and looked
at how much time it had actually

290
00:24:17.000 --> 00:24:21.640
taken me to work on that house. In between going out and speaking,

291
00:24:21.680 --> 00:24:26.119
which is what I did all the
time, seminars and keynotes and all different

292
00:24:26.160 --> 00:24:30.000
kinds of things, I found out
I'd only been working at it twenty five

293
00:24:30.079 --> 00:24:34.599
days. So what I am saying, what I'm deciding, what I've decided

294
00:24:34.640 --> 00:24:44.000
to do is teach people and especially
women, teach people. And a group

295
00:24:44.039 --> 00:24:48.720
I'm focusing on also is women veterans, especially women veterans who have children,

296
00:24:49.240 --> 00:24:56.400
because they're so tell us, like, you know, if there's a veteran,

297
00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:00.680
or even if there's another woman,
how can they go about Because you

298
00:25:00.759 --> 00:25:07.799
mentioned that people can build their houses
like around forty four thousand something like that,

299
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:12.119
so tell us like in short quick
process, well a place to go?

300
00:25:14.400 --> 00:25:17.000
Is that what you're asking? No, like, how would they build

301
00:25:17.039 --> 00:25:19.880
a thousand around like forty four thousand
dollars? Well, part of it is

302
00:25:21.000 --> 00:25:23.880
I train people to do that.
I have an on I have an online

303
00:25:23.960 --> 00:25:26.920
course, and you can just do
the quick course and see if this is

304
00:25:26.960 --> 00:25:30.000
for you or not. And then
if you say this is I'm going to

305
00:25:30.119 --> 00:25:33.079
I want to do this, you
can become part of a group coaching at

306
00:25:33.079 --> 00:25:37.400
a distance, and if you really
are ready, you come here where I'm

307
00:25:37.440 --> 00:25:41.799
building and you you're part of a
workshop that lasts for four days and you

308
00:25:42.119 --> 00:25:47.880
will show you hands on how to
do this. So that is the best

309
00:25:47.920 --> 00:25:51.359
way learn from someone. Don't do
what I did. It took me so

310
00:25:51.519 --> 00:25:55.599
much time in between to teach myself. But if that's all you can do,

311
00:25:55.599 --> 00:25:59.799
do that. Do whatever you have
at your disposal, Just take it

312
00:25:59.839 --> 00:26:06.599
bantage of your mobility and your determination. Do it. Because when you have

313
00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:10.920
a house that you have paid less
than fifty thousand dollars for, you will

314
00:26:10.920 --> 00:26:15.960
find out that it appraises for at
least three times what you have in it,

315
00:26:15.319 --> 00:26:19.880
and suddenly your net worth has mushroomed. And if you want to borrow

316
00:26:19.920 --> 00:26:25.839
against that, you can. But
what I would highly advocate is that people

317
00:26:25.920 --> 00:26:29.279
start building their wealth that way.
Stay in that house for two years,

318
00:26:29.640 --> 00:26:33.160
sell it, and move on because
the tax laws say when you sell a

319
00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:36.880
house and you make less than two
hundred and fifty thousand, you get to

320
00:26:36.960 --> 00:26:40.279
keep it all with no tax.
So if somebody had told me about this,

321
00:26:40.400 --> 00:26:45.000
I wish they had. I would
have moved every two years and continued

322
00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:48.920
to increase my wealth until I finally
reached a point where I said, I'm

323
00:26:48.920 --> 00:26:52.240
going to stay here. I love
this, I don't want to leave,

324
00:26:52.319 --> 00:26:59.680
but get started, get a foothold, start somewhere that is excellent. And

325
00:27:00.400 --> 00:27:03.759
you did talk about, you know, building your own house, So definitely

326
00:27:03.759 --> 00:27:07.200
you want to get a land,
piece of land. Oh yeah, about

327
00:27:07.319 --> 00:27:15.319
going about that. It's one of
my favorite things. There's land all over

328
00:27:15.359 --> 00:27:21.920
the United States that's available for a
very low cost. Some of them are

329
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:25.839
not in the most perfect of areas. But what I would say to look

330
00:27:25.880 --> 00:27:32.319
for, and you can find this
at a reasonable way, a community that

331
00:27:32.400 --> 00:27:37.279
has a community well first of all, so that water is already piped past

332
00:27:37.400 --> 00:27:41.240
your lot, so all you have
to do is tap into that. And

333
00:27:41.359 --> 00:27:45.839
so at the same time, they
have electricity there. All you have to

334
00:27:45.839 --> 00:27:48.960
do is tap into the electricity.
When you are finding a piece of land

335
00:27:49.000 --> 00:27:52.799
that is very cost effective, you're
going to be a little farther away from

336
00:27:53.039 --> 00:27:59.119
the town or the city, but
not exorbitantly. What's the difference between driving

337
00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:04.400
an hour and in northern North Atlanta
traffic to get into Atlanta as opposed to

338
00:28:04.519 --> 00:28:08.599
driving from somewhere that's at the edge
of Atlanta and driving into the edge of

339
00:28:08.640 --> 00:28:12.319
Atlanta for an hour? What's the
difference. Nothing? And it's more pleasurable

340
00:28:12.359 --> 00:28:17.519
because you're not in tight traffic.
But it's not just Georgia, it's all

341
00:28:17.559 --> 00:28:21.279
over the United States. There are
pieces of property, even in California,

342
00:28:21.359 --> 00:28:25.519
even in New York, everywhere where. You can get a piece of property

343
00:28:25.640 --> 00:28:32.000
for anywhere from and I say this
carefully, but anywhere from fifteen thousand to

344
00:28:32.640 --> 00:28:37.039
twenty five or thirty thousand, which
is a reasonable amount. Then the only

345
00:28:37.160 --> 00:28:41.200
thing you're going to have to add
to that is a septic tank. And

346
00:28:41.559 --> 00:28:44.880
the key is you must have the
soil tested. I just met with the

347
00:28:44.920 --> 00:28:49.279
soil scientist yesterday and found out my
new lot is perfect, is beautiful,

348
00:28:49.279 --> 00:28:53.119
it's wonderful. The lot has to
percolate. It has to be able to

349
00:28:53.200 --> 00:28:57.839
let the water filter down fast enough
so that it's not resting near the top

350
00:28:57.880 --> 00:29:02.400
of the soil. It goes down, it runs through channels, and it's

351
00:29:02.440 --> 00:29:07.279
purified through the water through the land. And it has to qualify for this.

352
00:29:07.400 --> 00:29:10.720
So you have to check the land
out before you agree to buy it

353
00:29:10.839 --> 00:29:15.160
or after you have it under contract. But sometimes land can be purchased by

354
00:29:15.200 --> 00:29:19.880
owner financing or some other kind of
financing, and that makes it so much

355
00:29:19.960 --> 00:29:25.000
easier to acquire that piece of property. I mean, just like I acquired

356
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:29.559
the land that I bought first for
one hundred and forty nine dollars a month.

357
00:29:29.880 --> 00:29:33.680
I pushed myself to do that,
but I afforded that I could do

358
00:29:33.799 --> 00:29:37.240
that. So I'm just telling you
there are people that make it their business

359
00:29:37.240 --> 00:29:41.920
to find land that other people bought
a long time ago and then decided not

360
00:29:41.000 --> 00:29:45.319
to build one. But I would
recommend not to buy in an area where

361
00:29:45.359 --> 00:29:48.319
the electricity isn't in there yet.
It's just too much of a challenge.

362
00:29:48.400 --> 00:29:52.720
Don't do that the first time around. Get electricity and water first, and

363
00:29:52.799 --> 00:30:00.640
then you decide where the driveway goes
in and you're good to go. Oh.

364
00:30:00.200 --> 00:30:06.319
I can definitely say that's because you
know all these things, like you

365
00:30:06.359 --> 00:30:10.160
know, simple things to think about, and I definitely see the value they

366
00:30:10.200 --> 00:30:14.759
would get working with you. And
as you mentioned that, you know you

367
00:30:14.759 --> 00:30:18.079
can keep on building that well.
So now let's say if people just kind

368
00:30:18.119 --> 00:30:22.279
of buy a piece of land and
don't want to build a house, So

369
00:30:22.519 --> 00:30:27.960
how would they like is that worth
it? Well, you have to choose

370
00:30:29.000 --> 00:30:33.559
so wisely. It does it have
a view, is it on water?

371
00:30:33.720 --> 00:30:38.200
Does it have anything that sets it
apart from other kinds of properties, because

372
00:30:38.240 --> 00:30:42.400
otherwise you are at the mercy of
the surrounding area. If you buy in

373
00:30:42.440 --> 00:30:48.680
an area that is not rising in
value, you're very much at risk.

374
00:30:49.359 --> 00:30:56.720
So just choosing a piece of property
to wait until that raises value is not

375
00:30:56.039 --> 00:31:00.160
really an ideal thing to do because
you have to be so very, very

376
00:31:00.279 --> 00:31:07.119
very good at choosing property, and
usually that takes years to figure out.

377
00:31:07.119 --> 00:31:10.119
But some people may have had a
mom or a dad, or an aunt

378
00:31:10.200 --> 00:31:11.519
or an uncle who was good at
this, or a grandparent who said this

379
00:31:11.559 --> 00:31:15.720
is how you choose. So I'm
not saying that you're foreclothes from doing that.

380
00:31:17.160 --> 00:31:21.240
I do have a friend who bought
some mountain property up in North Carolina

381
00:31:21.559 --> 00:31:23.960
and she turned around. She bought
it for something like six thousand dollars,

382
00:31:25.319 --> 00:31:30.039
and she sold it probably three years
later for twenty six thousand dollars. I

383
00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:33.799
mean, even then, that's a
great boost. I mean, as my

384
00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:36.799
father would say, twenty thousand dollars
is better than a poke in the eye

385
00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:44.720
with a sharp stick. Yeah,
oh, definitely definitely. Your father sounds

386
00:31:44.759 --> 00:31:48.160
like a wonderful person. So now
you have mentioned that you know building about

387
00:31:48.200 --> 00:31:52.279
valves. So then maybe entrepreneurs are
thinking, you know, I am handy,

388
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:57.920
I can go and learn with Leah. So if they're thinking and now

389
00:31:59.559 --> 00:32:04.200
you know, they want to build
the houses want and maybe they want to

390
00:32:04.240 --> 00:32:07.039
be known for it in the market. So you do talk about visibility to

391
00:32:07.559 --> 00:32:14.240
tell us a little bit about how
can these entrepreneurs or other entrepreneurs create visibility

392
00:32:14.279 --> 00:32:20.000
for themselves. Oh, and that's
another topic. That's another big topic because

393
00:32:20.119 --> 00:32:22.440
one of the things I do when
I'm working with entrepreneurs is to help them

394
00:32:22.559 --> 00:32:29.079
find their voice and first of all, before anything else, to give themselves

395
00:32:29.160 --> 00:32:35.960
permission. Now, I would say
that one out of forty entrepreneurs I work

396
00:32:36.039 --> 00:32:42.200
with has no problem with stepping forward
and saying this is who I am,

397
00:32:42.440 --> 00:32:45.880
this is what I have to offer, It's wonderful, it's great. You

398
00:32:45.920 --> 00:32:52.200
should do this. Most of us
have to convince ourselves to step forward because

399
00:32:52.240 --> 00:32:55.799
we want the product or the service
to speak for itself. We say,

400
00:32:55.799 --> 00:32:59.799
well, you should know, this
is what you know. I'm an attorney.

401
00:33:00.160 --> 00:33:01.759
You're going to get a will that
should stand for itself. No,

402
00:33:02.039 --> 00:33:07.160
I'm sorry. People buy from people
they feel they know and trust, and

403
00:33:07.359 --> 00:33:13.200
they've got to see you. So
today, every entrepreneur has to be able

404
00:33:13.200 --> 00:33:20.599
to step forward and express So I
teach people how to become better speakers.

405
00:33:21.039 --> 00:33:27.279
But underneath that, underneath the mechanics
of that is every bit of what is

406
00:33:27.319 --> 00:33:30.920
the most important thing that we are
living on, which is our self image,

407
00:33:31.480 --> 00:33:37.559
our self value, or our self
permission. All the voices or the

408
00:33:37.640 --> 00:33:42.559
voice that's in our head telling us
to stop or not do something we want

409
00:33:42.559 --> 00:33:46.920
to do. We have to overcome
a lot of things to get to the

410
00:33:46.960 --> 00:33:53.400
point where we allow ourselves to get
on a YouTube video or to get on

411
00:33:53.440 --> 00:33:59.200
a Facebook ad, or to go
out and say I'd like to speak to

412
00:33:59.240 --> 00:34:02.839
your group about what I do.
You know, you could be a professional,

413
00:34:04.079 --> 00:34:07.319
you could be an author, you
could be an artist, you could

414
00:34:07.359 --> 00:34:12.800
be an entrepreneur of a brick and
mortar store. But still people need to

415
00:34:12.880 --> 00:34:17.039
know who you are. And today
this is like, this is like the

416
00:34:17.159 --> 00:34:24.119
corner market. Being online is the
most and best and greatest opportunity anybody could

417
00:34:24.239 --> 00:34:30.039
ever have. All you need to
do is get comfortable enough with yourself.

418
00:34:30.440 --> 00:34:34.840
But it's not just a matter of
speaking what you need to speak. It's

419
00:34:34.880 --> 00:34:38.119
a matter of holding the vision in
your mind of what would be wonderful,

420
00:34:38.239 --> 00:34:44.159
what would be fabulous. You got
to find something that you love, that

421
00:34:44.199 --> 00:34:46.480
you're in love with, and here
you would say, here is the outcome.

422
00:34:46.519 --> 00:34:50.440
I would like to have. Wow, this is the outcome I would

423
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:53.599
like to have, And you hold
that firmly in your mind as you do

424
00:34:53.719 --> 00:34:58.440
everything, because you know what,
over the internet, all of us can

425
00:34:58.480 --> 00:35:02.239
feel desperation, all of us can
feel anger, all of us can feel

426
00:35:04.079 --> 00:35:07.920
a sense of irritation. So we
better not be feeling those things. We

427
00:35:08.039 --> 00:35:12.719
better be feeling a sense of joy
and love and all the good things we

428
00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:16.000
want because people can see it and
feel it. And you know, Divia.

429
00:35:16.159 --> 00:35:20.320
Something else I really didn't say is
my mom died when I was in

430
00:35:20.320 --> 00:35:23.400
my twenties, and my mom's so
sorry to hear that I didn't know what

431
00:35:23.480 --> 00:35:29.960
a child I was in my twenties, because usually most young men and women,

432
00:35:30.039 --> 00:35:34.800
they're like either men child or a
girl woman child that trying to find

433
00:35:34.840 --> 00:35:40.239
their identities and yet have not grown
fully because they're testing the waters adulting as

434
00:35:40.239 --> 00:35:45.440
we speak now. Oh absolutely,
I hear that I was on my own.

435
00:35:45.559 --> 00:35:50.400
I went to college and I applied
to colleges without my parents even knowing

436
00:35:50.440 --> 00:35:53.480
that I was applying to colleges.
I didn't want them to have any financial

437
00:35:53.519 --> 00:35:59.280
burden or have any concern about it. I protected them from that whole process.

438
00:36:00.280 --> 00:36:02.480
Grown I was mature. I knew
what I was doing. I had,

439
00:36:02.639 --> 00:36:06.159
I had traveled, I was,
I was writing, I was doing

440
00:36:06.159 --> 00:36:09.880
a lot of things and going to
graduate school. When after before she even

441
00:36:09.960 --> 00:36:15.440
passed away, but when she passed
away, I realized that I was still

442
00:36:15.519 --> 00:36:21.400
having long episodes of depression. I
was the kind of person and had been

443
00:36:21.440 --> 00:36:25.199
since I was thirteen years old,
that I would get hit with these uncontrollable

444
00:36:25.440 --> 00:36:31.960
I thought, uncontrollable bouts of feeling
paralyzed, immobilized, and I could not

445
00:36:32.199 --> 00:36:37.800
function. And after she passed away, I just looked in the mirror and

446
00:36:37.800 --> 00:36:40.239
said, Leah, if you don't
figure out how to be happy now,

447
00:36:40.920 --> 00:36:45.920
you may not have all the years
you think you're going to have to learn

448
00:36:45.199 --> 00:36:52.679
how. You better start getting it
right this minute. The biggest change of

449
00:36:52.679 --> 00:36:58.440
my life happened when I finally,
finally, finally got a grip on my

450
00:36:58.480 --> 00:37:02.000
own brain, on my own thoughts, on my own focus, and was

451
00:37:02.119 --> 00:37:07.480
able to direct myself toward what I
wanted instead of toward what was bringing me

452
00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:15.519
down. And everybody needs to start
there. Every every pathway begins with getting

453
00:37:15.559 --> 00:37:22.280
yourself into a great foundation, the
firmest foundation ever, a mindset that is

454
00:37:22.760 --> 00:37:29.039
storm heardy, because life is going
to hit you. It doesn't matter what

455
00:37:29.400 --> 00:37:32.800
You're going to have a flat tire. It's just it's just life. Things

456
00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:37.800
happen and nobody's out to get you. It's just that we have to learn

457
00:37:37.880 --> 00:37:42.920
resilience, bouncing back quickly, coming
back, being able to talk to ourselves

458
00:37:43.400 --> 00:37:46.920
like the best parent in the world
or the best coach in the world,

459
00:37:47.280 --> 00:37:52.760
and talking to ourselves like, hey, is that helpful if you talk like

460
00:37:52.880 --> 00:37:58.679
that? Is that helping you get
your energy back? Really? Yeah,

461
00:37:59.039 --> 00:38:05.480
you definitely on in that that life
is so short that if we may think

462
00:38:06.440 --> 00:38:10.519
that, oh, life is big, but the eternal truth is that we

463
00:38:10.599 --> 00:38:15.320
all got to go sometimes we all
get Yeah, nothing wrong with that,

464
00:38:15.400 --> 00:38:21.480
but because of that keeping inside,
because my dad just passed away and I

465
00:38:21.519 --> 00:38:25.000
thought I was ready for it than
you. I thought I was ready for

466
00:38:25.039 --> 00:38:34.159
it, but I wasn't. And
it's his legacy and his just you know,

467
00:38:34.280 --> 00:38:37.760
his spirit of enjoying life is what, like you know, shows up

468
00:38:37.800 --> 00:38:42.360
in every little, anybity thing in
my life. So as you're mentioning that

469
00:38:42.440 --> 00:38:46.000
it's if now it's not the time, then when to bring that join into

470
00:38:46.039 --> 00:38:51.559
your life. So as we kind
of bring our show to a close.

471
00:38:52.239 --> 00:38:55.280
Where can people find you and where
can people reach you? Well, one

472
00:38:55.280 --> 00:39:00.760
of the places is it's a program
that I developed for getting yourself out of

473
00:39:00.760 --> 00:39:06.360
a rut and reminding yourself. It's
at happy tune up dot com. Happy

474
00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:09.800
tune Up everybody knows how to be
happy when everything's going great. Happy tune

475
00:39:09.880 --> 00:39:15.159
up dot Com will take you to
a description of a program I've put together

476
00:39:15.199 --> 00:39:20.559
that's like a having a happiness tutor
for thirty straight days, and then you

477
00:39:20.599 --> 00:39:23.039
can do it again and again and
again and again if you want. But

478
00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:29.000
it is a wonderful. People have
told me they thought they knew everything and

479
00:39:29.039 --> 00:39:32.920
this has really helped them. If
other people are interested in looking at the

480
00:39:34.039 --> 00:39:37.320
building for a house, I have
a YouTube channel that has just started.

481
00:39:37.360 --> 00:39:45.400
It's called home and then the number
four Home for the Heart for the Heart

482
00:39:45.519 --> 00:39:50.800
on the YouTube channel, and it
has a video of the first house I

483
00:39:50.840 --> 00:39:53.480
ever built. It is so beautiful. I want you to see it because

484
00:39:53.480 --> 00:39:59.480
it doesn't look like affordable housing.
And then finally, this is a little

485
00:39:59.519 --> 00:40:01.360
longer. If you want to look
at some of the things I've created to

486
00:40:01.400 --> 00:40:06.920
help people, even about how to
get yourself to attract more wealth. It's

487
00:40:06.960 --> 00:40:15.800
at learn dot lifecraft craft with a
k dot com. Learn dot lifecraft dot

488
00:40:15.800 --> 00:40:20.400
com, and you can see what
I've been up to as I want to

489
00:40:20.400 --> 00:40:24.639
share all of this before I leave
the plane, and I just I have

490
00:40:24.880 --> 00:40:30.719
managed to the great thing about having
stubbed my toe in so many ways and

491
00:40:30.840 --> 00:40:35.360
had held myself up in so many
ways is that I've learned. And if

492
00:40:35.400 --> 00:40:38.320
I hadn't had all those blockades,
I wouldn't have learned. And so then

493
00:40:38.400 --> 00:40:42.960
because I've learned, I want to
share it. I can see so clearly

494
00:40:43.079 --> 00:40:49.159
now why I had such difficulties early
on making money and opening the way.

495
00:40:50.960 --> 00:40:53.920
I know what it takes now,
and I still work on myself. I

496
00:40:54.000 --> 00:40:58.840
still work on myself, but thank
you God that I don't have to work

497
00:40:58.880 --> 00:41:01.800
on myself every minute, have every
day. It is more like roller skates

498
00:41:01.880 --> 00:41:08.039
and then sometimes hit a hit a
door, you know, but it's easier,

499
00:41:08.079 --> 00:41:14.360
an easier and easier, and that's
beautiful. And as you were mentioning,

500
00:41:14.760 --> 00:41:20.920
I was thinking, there's opportunity in
every obstacle to be found and taken,

501
00:41:21.360 --> 00:41:25.639
not only just to discover it,
but take it by the horns and

502
00:41:25.800 --> 00:41:31.559
go turn things around. So thank
