There was a 65 year old man living on $99 security cheques, he left his home in search of selling his amazing recipe, he was told no 1009 times that no one wanted his recipe, even when he offered to give it for FREE for just a small percentage of the takings in the hopes that someone somewhere may give him a chance. Until he met that one, that one who gave him the chance he had searched and searched for, and he never gave up! That man was Colonel Sanders, and I don't know about you but I don't know anyone who has never heard of KFC!

Moral of this story, never ever give up and always believe in yourself. Don't let someone disregard your belief or your worth, Hold on to it, and push forward, and you too... could be a success!


And also make my waistband expand, win win :)



Her parents divorced when she was young, so seeing her father was rare. Her mum and step dad could barely make ends meet so she started singing in bars to make extra money for their family when she was only eight! When she was twenty one her mum and step dad were both killed in a head on car accident with a logging truck. Due to this she put her career on hold to raise her 3 younger siblings. She sang in resorts and put her own dreams of making it big on the back burner until her brothers and sisters were old enough to look after themselves. It wasn't until her youngest brother graduated high school that she decided it was time to go to Nashville, and pursue her own dream career, this woman, was one of my favourite singers in the world - Shania Twain!


Sometimes life doesn't go as smoothly, or happen in the time frame you would wish for, but maybe that's exactly what it takes to be who you were always meant to be <3
