When you are going in the right direction, there's no choice to go but up! ~TNGSuccess Principles~Success is the progressive realization of a worthy ideal.~Do NOT conform to what everybody else is doing.~Success is a predetermined job that you want to do deliberately.~People usually succeed because they know where they are going.~You are guided by your mind.~Believe and you will succeed!~You become what you think about that is why it is important to control your thinking.On Saturday, I had the opportunity to meet three inspiring and motivating females. They are all fulfilling their dreams and doing what they love to do. Because I am an Internet junkie, I ran across this event for Authors and writers and said to myself: I must attend this event! I was provided knowledge and guidance by individuals who have already accomplished one of the goals on my To-Do list of life. Know what you want to do, hold the thought firmly and do everyday what should be done, and every sunset will see you that much nearer the goal.~Elbert HubbardStephanie L. Joneswww.stephanieljones.comAn entrepreneurial spirit and passion to serve others has guided Stephanie L. Jones through an extensive background in sales, public relations, and community service.In 2005, Jones opted out of the corporate business world in favor of an opportunity to pursue her entrepreneurial goals as a freelance publicist. She successfully designed and coordinated marketing campaigns for organizations, several best selling book authors, and for a nationally distributed women's magazine.Although highly successful in her endeavors, Jones soon took another bold step, this time to fulfill her destiny. She became an advocate for individuals suffering from the effects of child sexual abuse. Jones, author of The Enemy Between My Legs, unashamedly shares her story with audiences around the world on how she was able to overcome the effects of over seven years of child sexual abuse, which began at age five. She is known for her honest approach in dealing with sexual abuse, a subject that few people will openly discuss. She has the ability to understand and connect with abuse victims, especially teenagers and young adults. This has made her a highly sought after speaker for schools, churches, and major organizations.Natasha Munsonhttp://www.sisterlessons.com/http://natashamunson.blogspot.com/http://www.bemagic.org/Originally from New Jersey, Natasha Munson never intended to write a series of books. Instead, her primary goal was to save her teenage cousin from making some of the same choices that had led Natasha to living a life she hated. She wanted to find a way to reach her heart without preaching or yelling at her. So, Natasha began writing down all the lessons she had learned in life. She wrote about everything she had endured, including every piece of wisdom she wished someone had shared with her about life, love, money and relationships.Then she realized that these lessons could help other women as well. “My goal is to empower women by helping them live lives in which they smile in their sleep, love as though they have never been hurt and create lives they love!” says Natasha. "My mission is to empower the community one spirit at a time."Lorraine Sanabria Robertsonwww.Askwifey.comhttp://askwifey.blogspot.com/about Wifey from HusbandShe’s a writer.
