Hopefully happy...in a better job and married to some wonderful man who is kind, romantic - and who screws me rotten at least 3-10 times a week!
Seriously, I honestly worry that I will be just as miserable as I am now, but keep hoping and praying for some things to change in my life to turn that all around... Hope springs eternal.

an interview with Jim Clark.
Jim Clark became a billionaire in the 'internet age.'
He was involved in starting Netscape, Silicon Graphics,
and dozens of start up companies.
This guy knows a ton about the MINDSET you need to succeed
and increase your income.
I want to share with you 1 question and 1 answer from the
interview because it can help you.
Question: "What Traits Should Every Good Entrepreneur Possess?"
Answer: Discontent and anxiety. Most entrepreneurs are not
content with the way things are. But if they're smart, they're
extremely anxious too. Most ideas are going to happen whether you
do them or someone else does.
It's the person who feels most anxious about it and builds
the prototype who is likely to win.
The best entrepreneurs tend to move quickly and efficiently.
They don't waste a lot of time making decisions.
I want to touch on an important point Jim is making
because I rarely hear anyone else say it but myself.
A lot of people teach you to 'always be content'. It's like
you can sit on top of a mountain, chant, say a few sentences,
then your life changes and you become a millionaire. To me, it's
ridiculous.
I've never seen it work.
Is a great athlete 'content' before a game or HUNGRY to win?
Is a great businessperson 'content' before a big deal or HUNGRY
to win?
I believe in what Robert Collier, a well known author years ago,
called 'The Gospel of Discontent.'
Look at the REALITY of your life, what are you not happy with?
Seriously, what area of your life are you not happy with?
You need to use this discontent, this anger, and harness it in
positive ways.
Discontent, anxiety, and anger are some of the most powerful
motivations you can have.
It's time to use them if you're not happy with where you are
right now.
Does it make sense?
Michael Jordan ALWAYS used to find something that could
get him angry before a game because he KNEW he would play his
best.
Listen, I'm not saying walk around angry, but what I am sharing
with you is a major secret of some of the most successful people
in the world.
Jim Clark has used it to become a billionaire.
