Life is the most interesting thing that we will each experience. My specific experience brought me to the simple realization that You Are Your Solution.

When I was 25 with two children, one severely handicapped, the other a newborn, I found myself with no direction other than repeating the same things each day over and over again. One day I was in my robe at one in the afternoon as I had been busy all day with the children and looked in the mirror. I looked old, my eyes had no twinkle, I was undernourished, dehydrated and unhappy.  I quickly realized I had to do something. I looked in the mirror and said out loud, “You are your solution”. What are you going to do to solve your problems and take charge of your life? From that day on, I started each day by telling myself “You are your solution”; it became my credo.

The subsequent years took me back to school, saw me build a successful career in the field of Human Resources, allowed me to travel the world and work with remarkable people to help them find their solutions.

Taking charge of my life was anchored with this statement, it worked for me and I’m confident it can work for you.

Solution 1:  I got up every morning, got dressed, put makeup on, got the kids dressed and I would go out, with kids in tow, to research colleges and programs, daycares for my children, before tackling my next solution.

I know this sounds simple, but the easiest place to start is with one solution at a time

Solution 2: I searched for a job, and fortunately found daycare. This is a challenge for many and can be terrifying. Ask for help, look for other people in your situation, include your family if you are able, a solution is available, but may not be obvious, be open and confident.

Solution 3: Start talking to people! I found out later I was networking. Who knew? I became a master networker with many different networks.

Solution 4: Put those networks to good use. As you build your own success, do not forget to help others do the same along the way.

Solution 5: Stick to it! If you stop moving forward, you pull the plug on your own success. And so, you don’t forget this and other things to help you get there; JOURNAL – A journal is worth a thousand words…yours. Your solution lies within your own words. You Are Your Solution!

There are a countless books, seminars and incredible tools out there, but they only work if you commit to working. You Are Your Solution!

I created this line of products as a reminder to focus on your solution, make your solution a part of your daily life, use these as tools to remind yourself and others that You Are Your Solution!

I wish each of you the best and know that you too will find your solution!
