Mindset shifting – An article to help military veterans with their mindset
Today I was told that I would be given an opportunity to be a co- author for a book. I was asked if I would be willing to share my story. Of course I would be….until I was asked how much my business made.
You see, my “business” is helping people cope with mental illness and overcome trauma. I am a mentor, coach and blogger. I talk about mental illness and how I live with it. My story has helped numerous people across the years cope with their own mental illness. Do I make a ton of money? The answer is no. I love what I do. It’s not “work” per say. I do take time out of my day from being a mother and military spouse, to being there for people who need me. Apparently this was an issue. I haven’t been monetizing my services, therefore would not be able to be a part of a book in which I would have loved to have written for. I needed to recharge my creativity!
I was a little upset. I took a drive and used my mindset shifting theory. Not everyone will agree with what I do or want to do. Not everyone will invite me to be a part of their “book club” and that’s okay. I know my why. I know what I am meant to do and the journey that I am meant to be on.
When certain people need you to do more, think about what it is that they want. Make sure that what you do is for the right reasons. Know your value. Know your worth. Know your purpose.
Never let a “no” bring you down. All those “no’s” will turn into a yes when it is time.

Howdy just wanted to give you a quick heads up. The text
in your post seem to be running off the screen in Safari.
I’m not sure if this is a format issue or something to
do with browser compatibility but I thought I’d post to let you know.
The style and design look great though! Hope you get the issue solved soon. Thanks
These are actually impressive ideas in about blogging. You have
touched some pleasant points here. Any way keep up
wrinting. Howdy, i read your blog occasionally and i own a similar one and i was
just curious if you get a lot of spam comments? If so how do you stop it, any plugin or anything you can suggest?
I get so much lately it’s driving me mad so any help is very
much appreciated. http://hats.com

Have you ever thought about adding a little bit more than just your articles? I mean, what you say is fundamental and everything. However think about if you added some great images or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and clips, this site could certainly be one of the most beneficial in its niche. Good blog!
