'Failure' Makes You Stronger & MORE Determined!

A little inspiration & empowerment for anyone who's life went 'tits up' at some point.. A few years ago, I had a shop which I worked hard for & put my heart & soul into, I LOVED it, I was so proud of what I had a achieved. 
After 18 months, it all went pear shaped, through my own stupid choices at that time... I lost everything & more, spiralled into debt, lost my car, my shop, some treasured possessions, and even nearly lost our home. Downward spirals happen VERY fast!! I did wallow in self pity for a while, I manifested arthritis in my hands to hamper & blame myself even more, I felt like a failure and that I had let everyone down, everyone I loved. (tears while typing this lol) Then I learned about Law of Attraction, a little too late to recover my losses, but I learned how to face fear & pick myself back up again... and again.... and again, several business's I attempted failed, costing even more... money, heartache, pride.. 
Then one day, I met Susie Mitchell & Lynda Clarke, they told me about something called Juice Plus.. fruit & veg in capsules they told me!! Blimey, this sounds good, and even better, there was a business behind it!!!... if you have entrepreneur tendencies its hard to resist opportunities, Miles, my other half puts his head in his hands "what is she up to now, just another opportunity that I will have to pick up the pieces ... again" I could understand that, as he has done time & time again bless him. 
At the time, Susie had just achieved the position of Qualifying Marketing Director, WOW, I was in awe of this, sounded proper posh!! & she wanted ME in her business, with Lynda. OMG, It was only £65 to get started, I knew Miles wouldnt be impressed, but that he would support me anyway, so I took the plunge, with the lovely Lynda Clarke as my upline. 
And now, im reflecting (as you have probably guessed)... Its taken me 2 years, but after all the tough times & experiences I had to deal with, the fears, the failures, the ups & downs, the tears & frustrations, I stood up & dusted myself down, cleared out the negative crap in my mind, and am very proud to look back and see how far I have come, what I have achieved in the last 2 years, ive completely turned my life around, my arthritis has almost gone, thanks to the nutrition from our product, Im a Qualifying National Marketing Director with The Juice Plus Company for f**ks sake!!! With over 150 team members in my downlines, across UK, France, Spain, USA, Canada, Australia... ME, little Alison Hamlin-Hughes from Widnes. I have achieved this, who would have thought!! Why & how? because I learned to BELIEVE in myself, I learned how to HELP other people, I learned to SHARE my skills, I CARE about people, I took my power back, I have a brilliant team & amazing mentors. I hope that this little story will empower other people who feel that they have failed, to get back up, dust themselves down & turn their lives around too. If you want me to help you, just let me know... that is what I do!
