"This is really the best gift I could give myself"
For almost 4 years I have been going through very difficult times professionally in my international business where I had been manufacturing furniture and decorative objects in Indonesia and India since 1998 and supplying shops in different countries and the economic crisis in 2008 I fell to more than 75% and since the covid19 completely completed, the fall financially. Followed by a separation in my couple in 2017, with false accusations to be able to take away the custody of my child that I take care of 24h/24h 7/7. During the first 6 months of separation I see her 1 hour every 15 days in a supervised centre and now I only see her 6 to 8 days a month. She will be 5 years old in September and I am 60 years old. I was completely devastated, destabilized and I was looking for ways to see things differently than letting anger, frustration and uneasiness take over. I started taking mindvalley classes with Robin Sharma, Michael Beckwith and Neale Donald Walsch which helped me to take a step back but still struggling to get out of that nightmare on that dark night of the soul. And for some time now I've been listening or reading about Jon & Missy's life and the Lifebook, but since I'm limited in English and paying $500 was too much for me, I decided to put $500 on the few dollars I had left in my account. I also knew that it wasn't going to be easy since I didn't have a fixed home of my own, I was staying with friends and not always connected to the internet. So when I knew after that the course existed in French I wanted to have it and keep English to practice but I had to pay 500$ more I preferred to give up French. I am originally from Mauritius and I have been living in Reunion Island a French department for several years now. This is really the best gift I could give myself, despite the effort to listen and listen again in English to understand as well as possible by also translating as much as possible into French on Google translator and spending about 3 hours a day. By working on these 12 categories it helped me to take a lot of step back from my problems and give me hope to see a way out. Thanks to you Jon and Missy for the wonderful work you have put in place and the example you set through your own life example. I know I still have some work to do to regain my self-confidence but working on my life vision on these 12 categories and being able to continue with you for the master's degree will help me to get my head above water and be successful. I am ready to bring this to reality despite what I feel about my negative beliefs from the past, my ego and my bad habits. And I know that you are here to support me too and I really need you, because I feel both strong and weak. I hope to meet you in person someday would be an honor. Thanks again, Jon and Missy.
