I started receiving invites to do Lifebook in November and just the idea of it resonated a lot with me. I thought it made a lot of sense but I was afraid of being pulled into a scam or spending money I didn’t have. If it was real I thought: I could definitely do this and get my money back (I could totally pull this off and it would help me get back on my feet).
My husband had recently told me, out of the blue, he wasn’t happy, he felt he couldn’t connect with me anymore and he wanted us to separate. We had two kids ages 7 and 9 and he acted almost like they didn’t exist. Didn’t even try to work it out for their sake, he just wanted out, even though we had no problems (his words exactly). He wanted to see them every 15 days, gave me complete custody without me having to ask for it. Shattered my heart and life vision into a million pieces. My life vision had always been my family and having him as a partner for life. I was completely lost, didn’t want to keep living, I was trapped in a life I had never wanted and I couldn’t do anything to get out of if. I had done everything right to have the life I wanted but my partner had lied to me. He had made me believe he wanted the same things I did, because he didn’t want to lose me, and suddenly 11 years later, he decided it was the time to tell me we wanted completely different things in life. I was so desperate and had so much faith in him, he was able to keep me interested for several months. I thought he would realize he made a huge mistake and come back to us. I kept praying and waiting for him. I hit an all-time low in December when he told me he wasn’t sure about anything but that he felt he couldn’t force himself to feel things he didn’t feel. I was devastated, I understood he wasn’t going to come back and I had to do something to pull myself out of that dark hole, not even for me, but for my kids. They needed a healthy, loving mother... So I dove in.
Working in education I had reached what I thought was the highest I could aspire (coordinating a whole private school) but had always felt I could never be rich on my own. After Lifebook I have the certainty I can make that happen. I felt I just have to find the what. I tried thinking a lot about it but nothing seemed to come up. What value could I offer to the world?
Yesterday, about to finish the program to apply for the refund, during the life vision exercise I had a powerful vision. It came to me, out of nowhere. I thought about the bunch of people that had benefitted greatly from this program and how the more people that do it the better the world would be. I have an idea to make this accessible to more people in less time and in a more potent manner. Imagine offering a one week retreat to graduates or new students in a beautiful city like Valencia. A low-cost version of something I’m sure Missy and John already do. Where like-minded people can get together and cowork, watch the videos together, work out together, drink smoothies together, help each other create their Lifebooks in one week. I could organize such a retreat and this would really help me feel purposeful (I would be helping people better their lives and become better people!). I could decorate the rooms with phrases from the course, organize cultural outings in between sessions (they would enroll to Lifebook Online just like I did but they would be able to do it side by side other people like them and all in one week, fully dedicating themselves to it). I mean the Facebook tribe is amazing but imagine being able to connect in person!! Plus I feel some people need to stop what they are doing to really dedicate time and energy to do it properly. I really want to make this a reality, I feel I just need to speak to John and Missy to get their approval! Help me fulfill my dream!!
