I Thought I Had Arrived

In 1989 I had started on another path to success, in fact I thought I had arrived. My mentor Stewart convinced me I was part of his family, he worked on my mental state to get me to a point of jumping off a cliff with him. This would have been all good, if he loved people and used money, but he loved money and used people. I do not regret this time, as a matter of fact I thank him and bless him, as I would not be as succesful today with out this experience.

The company was doing about 700,000 turnover at this time and I worked 6 days a week, focusing on sales and managing the warehouse and distribution. In 1995 the company was doing about 1.2 million and making good profit, my wife and I moved out of our rented home and bought our first house together, we also had our first child. Stewart asked me if he could take 6 months away from the company as he was developing a farm he had bought, I thought I had arrived.

About one year later things started to get tense, Stewart's game plan was to reduce my standing with in the company, I suddenly realised that he was the boss on this 60/40 deal. Over the period of the next 4 years I started to hate going to work, everything I did in his eyes was wrong, if staff didn't conform to his way of thinking or do as he said he would target them to make their lives a misery.

It was time to go, then something happened , I picked a book up called The Power Of The Subconscious Mind. This book had been with me for 10 years, that was the last time I read it. My self esteem was low, I was unhappy, I needed to change things. I read this book time and time again. I put into practice the principles it said to do and to me, at that time, they seemed bizarre.

This is what happened:

• I read and studied
• The laws of attraction stood out
• It explained faith cards
• How to visualise 
• How to ask each morning and night for a way out.

After about 6-12 months opportunities presented themselves:

• An idea popped into my mind sell our home and rent
• An opportunity came to buy land and build our own house
• An idea came to my mind to buy another company
• I found a company to buy and was negotiating quietly
• Stewart called me into his office and offered to buy me out

Wow what a shift, why did these event take place ? Luck ? you could say that , The Power Of The Subconscious Mind  and I would disagree.

So I thought I had arrived at my final destination, but my next journey takes place.
