"Within a relatively short time, I lost 40 pounds! I also quit smoking without needing to use nicotine patches and without any symptoms of withdrawal!"
-- Marta Reis, Artist

For the first time in my life, I am making money doing something that is truly creative and fulfilling.
'My heart and art shape my actions and my future.' This idea or empowering
belief came to fruition at the Harmonic Wealth® Weekend.
Three months later, I had a functioning business, a bank account,
a website, marketing materials, an advertising campaign, and much more.
8 months later, I had attracted over 75 potential clients and Visionality
(my company) went from an idea to a reality. For the first time in my life,
I am making money doing something that is truly creative and fulfilling.
I have also been much more relaxed and self-assured since
the beginning of the Journey. I grew up in a traditional, large,
Portuguese family where the first-born children were considered Gods
in comparison to the other children. As the younger child, I was
constantly compared to my older sibling and cousins, always made
to feel second best. The insecurities accrued from these interactions
greatly impacted my life and my responses. I would often fly off the
handle at the smallest comments, always defending myself even when it
wasn't necessary. Now I look at everything much more objectively, and
from a position of power. Instead of letting anger or frustrations
take over, I have learned how to identify with the appropriate
emotional response, and to deal with it rationally.

forward to future without boundaries, and to creating a life in which
anything is possible!"

Two years ago, I was a cigarette smoker and fifty pounds overweight.
Having tried all of the fad diets without avail, and having had surgery
on my lower back when I was 17, I had convinced myself that my body
was flawed. At Harmonic Wealth Weekend, James taught me that the only
way I was going to overcome this physical challenge and the mental
constraints I had placed on my capabilities, was to choose a type
of exercise that would bring me complete joy. I bought some bikes
with my husband, created some rough boundaries for myself, and within
a relatively short time, I lost 40 pounds! I also quit smoking without
needing to use nicotine patches and without any symptoms of withdrawal!
In The Science of Success Learning System, James says,
"nothing can be created or destroyed. It can only be transformed."
This idea, that life is like silly-putty, has created a freedom for
me that I never knew existed. As I continue to make my way through
the James Ray curriculum, I look forward to a future without boundaries,
and to creating a life in which anything is possible!
Sincerely,
