There was once a very divorced and disillusioned woman in midlife who lost her job. One day, out of the blue, her boss told her her services would no longer be needed. She felt dazed and confused, sort of like this. What’s a girl to do?
At first she saw it as a cruel twist of fate, but she eventually saw an unique opportunity well hidden in this apparent life crisis. She had been thinking about changing careers for ages. Now was the time to do just that.
She started researching her options and discovered she really wanted to start her own version of a local matchmaking service. She made preparations and soon after her job ended, and her unemployment checks started coming in, she launched her new business.
It was a GREAT SUCCESS because it built self-confidence and led to many other new and exciting life changes. It opened up her mind and her life to ALL OF HER OPTIONS! She even eventually met her new husband through her efforts!
Sometimes we need to allow ourselves to fail to finally find the successful person inside.
