The Code of the Extraordinary Mind

"I was able to shift the most painful experiences in my life to something positive or beneficial"

The life changing experience I had was from the lecture or talk about the four levels of consequences. And it's actually from the book of The Code of the Extraordinary Mind. 
Five years ago, I lost a child. And it was it was devastating. It was the end of the world for me, not only because I lost a child, also my background, I'm originally Syrian, and technically my job in life was to get married and have children. So other than losing a child for me, it was like I failed the only job I had. And it was until I got introduced to that talk. And Level One was all about the effect of culture and societies and all their fears. And I realized that there's so much bad to us that even losing a child even if he's present or not, it's the love that counts. It's his presence. That is him being here. It's me realizing that No, not my only job is being a mom. It's the most beautiful thing but I can still take advantage of his existence to help other people's lives. And that's what it taught me the whole four levels and then I moved to the second level. And I'm like, I'm third liberal, let's discover myself and discover my journey. And I was able to shift because of the power of mind that's also in the book. I was able to shift the most painful experiences in my life to something positive or beneficial. My son had autism. So I ended up opening a center under under his name to help kids like him.
