"My life has drastically changed in just a few months"

In 2019 I had a really rough year at work as a small business owner. I kept working more and more yet the amount of work continued to increase. By the end of the year, I was experiencing burnout. I honestly didn't even realize that I was stressed until the point when my body simply couldn't handle it anymore. And then I googled "burnout".  I thought that it was caused by too much work but it was actually due to too much stress. Every tiny detail irritated me immensely and I had an issue with breathing.
Meditation allowed me to survive the next months. But the reality was that I wasn't solving the problem and I couldn't see the solution here. I thought that my business and employees would suffer greatly as a result. And then COVID happened. 
The pandemic forced my business go close for the 2 full months and let me just say I needed every sec od of it. The time off allowed me to spend time relaxing and to work on myself. 
During that time I watched "Transcendence 1 &2" from Food Matter (now Gaia) and was inspired by the story of Jim Kwik and what Vishen had to say. So I looked them up on Goog;e. The rest was history.

Mindvalley is what I have been looking for all my life. 
I now do The 6 Phase Meditation every day and to the Be Extraordinary class. My life has drastically changed in just a few months. 
Work has started again and stressful situations were coming up again but I feel like I am almost immune to them now. I even feel lucky. Problems that have been going on for months and years are all of a sudden resolving themselves...
My ability to remember, concentrate and my desire to learn has increased tenfold since learning how to remember thanks to Jim Kwik. 
And this is just the beginning. Now I have a purpose in life. I know what I want and will be making some big changes in my life soon. 
I can't wait to take all the other classes in Mindvalley and continue to grow for the rest of my life.
