My Story...
Let me just say this. For years I’ve known about this Call to change my life, many of you will know it as a nagging thought, a repeating dream, an idea, or a passion for something creative. In my case it was an idea, I just knew if I paid attention to the thoughts and took action, I would have to turn away from all that was familiar in my life - including family and friends.
To be honest I was scared what people would think, I didn’t want to be different, I wanted to fit in even though what I was trying to fit into brought chaos and destruction into my life. I was always busy doing something or the other, never had time to think, until my life took an unexpected turn. I was hospitalised, lost my job, family and friends left me, the irony, and my long term relationship with my partner ended. Everything in my life changed in that instant, I was forced into a position of complete surrender, and for once in my life I was forced to sit still and listen.
The products in the I.P.RANGE are the manifestation of the thoughts and feelings that were gifted to me in that moment. Who would have thought my thirst for education and love for books would develop into creating with my own brand. It’s mind blowing! I’ve since learned to focus on negative experiences and what they’re trying to tell me to do better, achieve greater, to step away from the storm. But most importantly, this daily practice helped to save my life, and to be at peace with my own thoughts, ideas and feelings.
Much of what we all do is instinctual, acting on your first thought will lead you to exactly the thing you want to achieve. We often ignore our instincts, I’ve learnt this can be at our detriment where we make mistakes and errors of judgement. Very much like being persuaded to another’s point of view and not understanding that our thoughts and feelings have as much value, or even more just by trusting our instints.
