Success or succeeding is not an end goal -- it's an ongoing process. You climb a mountain, reaching the top only to find it's a foothill and there are plenty more to come.
I felt like I was on top of the world for a while -- a wonderful husband, two great kids and the requisite dog. We owned our own business and were succeeding -- or so I thought. The recession sneaked up on us and our lives changed forever.
Was it bad? For a while, it was. Is it getting better? Yes!
I still have my wonderful husband, two great kids and a requisite dog. This is my story of defeat that gave wings to a new direction in life.

I've returned to Wizzley recently and it was nice to find this inspiring article from you, a reminder that things do change, and there is always something positive right around the corner.
Just goes to show that those who are willing to adapt and try new things, thrive. Thanks for your story, it's inspiring!
I agree, this is really inspiring. You're making a lot of money after only 1 year and 8 months (well, much longer now -- and much more money, I imagine). I'll have to look into Wordpress.org for blogs. And read all the articles you showcase here. Thank you for sharing!
This is a really inspiring piece. It was very helpful to read about how you developed your online writing skills. I'm glad that you tackled a learning curve, and that you're being successful.
Great story (sad event but great ending!)! I just wrote an article about not chasing money (taking your time), and this article was in my side bar when I hit publish- I had to check it out and glad I did! It appears I'm promoting you :) (and syndicating tweet/g+,fb)
p.s.
how'd you get that yellow box in there?
I love to read stories like this. You seem to have caught on very quickly. I'm still figuring it out.
Pretty inspiring. Now, let's go to your reading list:)
Thanks!
Good to see you Cheryl! Much continued success to you too!
This is encouraging. Thanks for sharing your success.
Congratulations on your success. This is such an encouraging article about sticking with something until you make it. Thanks for the share!
