		<description>I was extremely fortunate my parents always told me I could do or be anything I wanted. It didn&#039;t matter what it was I had their support both morally and financially.

Thanks to them I had the opportunity to do a lot of different things and succeed in my endeavors.  I was hyperactive so I was involved in a number of physically challenging activities (Kicking Boxing, Ballet, Equestrian Show Jumping, Dressage Horse Riding, Freestyle Skiing,  Cross Country Skiing, Synchronized Swimming, Scuba Diving, Jazz &amp; Tap Dancing...)  as well as educational programs.

Money was never a factor with my parents, they placed more importance on being happy with what I wanted to do than money.

I wish everyone had parents that thought the way mine did, but regrettably there aren&#039;t. I was blessed and thank God everyday for gifting me with numerous attributes - even the 3 incurable diseases bestowed upon me.

I truly believe what doesn&#039;t kill you makes you stronger and I&#039;m getting stronger everyday! *Muffles Laugh* Okay, things are rough right now, but I know I&#039;ll get though this and be a better person because of it.</description>

		<description>I NEED TRAFFIC TO MY WEBSITES! 

Hi Erik,

You have been doing some awesome teleseminars since I first discovered you late last year for the 12 Days Of Christmas series... which was really awesome training that I took advantage of while it was available. But now I&#039;ve got a lot of things going but no traffic! Can you help out with that?

Thanks a bunch,
-Casey</description>

		<description>Thank you again everyone for all your thoughts and well-wishes.

I really appreciate it.

The little guy sure has gotten off to a rocky start to the summer: First the spider bite, and now he had to go in to the dentist yesterday to get three cavities filled.

Unbelievable.

You know what though? If this is the worse it gets this year, then I am going to consider it a damn good year:)

		<description>Erik and Wendy..... Praise God he is fine. He&#039;s so precious!! 
( If anyone gets bitten by a bad spider go to the health food store and get so Eassic Tea, pour some on a cloth every day or night and apply to the bite, it will kill the poison and heal the wound, also take a teaspoon a day in water - takes about a week total and no scars.)      

Yes you are right absolutely Erik! and What I do also is Pray, give it to God and he takes care of everything for us. Its always best to pray in agreement with another, though God still hears and answers always.
You see Worry is a sin because it shows we don&#039;t trust God. So no more worry peoples, just pray give it to God, have faith and continue forward. 
Know that you&#039;ll succeed, think and speak nothing but positive in every aspect, meaning thoughts too and onward we go.
These trials are minimal to the awesome Success we have and will have continually.

Great blog Erik! and High five to the little guy!</description>

		<description>Erik and Wendy,

Maybe I&#039;m a little late on the message, but I concur with everyone who extended their heart-warming prayers to GOD (Yah) to heal your son during this period of life.  He will healed.  Trust and know that.  My fear is losing my job and losing income during this recession period. But, what keeps me focused is beliving in GOD.  I only wish I could actually learn how to build an online business in internet marketing that will finally allow me and my family the lifestyle they deserve, that&#039;s all.  NO MONEY WORRIES!!!

God Bless you and everyone here!</description>

		<description>Erik, 

I have to thank you for starting this topic.  It really made me sit back and think about living with fear and made me question why. Instead of analyzing my fears, I focused on why I was allowing myself to be controlled by fear. It was quite an awakening for me. I know I have a very positive attitude, the ability to put mind over matter, and a powerful mind, so why wasn’t I using it?

I decide I would, it was amazing how different I felt when I looked at it from a positive standpoint.  Now, I’m not afraid of my fears, I’m using positive thinking &amp; humour to deal with them.  It’s working out extremely well, I’m facing them head on and putting them in their place - out of my life!  LOL 

Actually FEAR has become my little buddy.  ROFL We have some really lethal fights, but my positive attitude is on overdrive and so far we’ve won everyone. (I think my little buddy FEAR is getting SCARED of me. ROFLMAO)  My poor little FEAR is getting weak and I’m getting stronger.  (Smile)  I haven’t completely conquered it yet, but I will. (POSITIVE THINKING is more powerful than FEAR – I’m sticking with POSTIVE THINKING, I don’t like or want to live with FEAR.)

Oh, maybe I already have.  Last night I told my FEAR that I way ready to fight him and he left me.  I thought he’d gone to get his friends, SCARE, EVIL, AFRAID, and DANGER so I gave him a little time to get back. (I guess My FEAR got a little case of FEAR himself. LOL)  I waited for him to come back, but he didn’t.  He hasn’t come back today yet either. (Big Smile) 

If or when he comes back, I’m ready for him.  The longer he stays away the more powerful I get with my POSITIVE THINKING. I’ve accomplished more in the last two days then I have in the last 3 months. LOL

(Come and get me if you can FEAR, you’re on the losing team and I’m on the winning one.  What’s wrong FEAR, are you SCARED of me?  You can bring your buddies with you! *Laughs* Oh, come on FEAR you can’t really be that AFRAID of me!!!  Don’t tell me “THE ALL MIGHTY FEAR” is really a chicken at heart. *Cat Got Your Tongue FEAR?*  FEAR I challenge you to confront me! *Oh Where, Oh, Where Can My Little FEAR Be, I Know Your Not Here With Me.* ROFL  I’m waiting FEAR…Hmm, I guess you are AFRAID of me, your SCARED to confront me. LOL I didn’t think my little FEAR wouldn’t rear his ugly head at a direct challenge. You’re not as mighty as you’d like people to believe you are.  Sorry, FEAR, but I can no long put your name in cap’s you don’t deserve cap’s!!!  I must admit, I’m a little disappointed with you fear, but I’ll get over it. ROFLMAO  If you ever want to come back, I’ll be here to put you back in you place – out of my life forever!  You can try, but it won’t work, I know how to conquer you now!  But I’ll always be prepared for a good fight with you, fear!  It’s much more fun to fight you than being afraid of you. LOL *Yeah, you little buddies don’t deserve cap’s either* But, don’t hesitate to stop by anytime, my positive attitude and powerful mind aren’t going anywhere.  *Tosses fear in toilet, flushes, watches as fear goes down the toilet and into the sewage pipe.* Bye for now or forever fear, I’d like to say it was nice knowing you, but it wasn’t! *Cracks up laughing*)</description>

		<description>Erik and Wendy,
I&#039;m very relieved to hear that Evan is recovering quickly and will be back to normal very soon. I&#039;m glad my kids are all grown up now, as your story reminds me so much of the sometimes daily challenges and frightening things that can happen, just trying to get them &quot;raised up.&quot; Of course, now I worry about the grandkids (one daughter lives near Phoenix and they have scorpions there!), but I know they&#039;ll be fine. The hardest part is feeling helpless when there is nothing you can do. Sometimes, all that is left is faith. But I see here that you also have a strong support network. That&#039;s important, too.</description>
