Hi Friend,
In my early twenties, as a crime victim I was shot in the head and neck by a man who was out of control because of some drugs he put in his body. After a month and a half coma state, I was blessed with benefits of some nerve damage recovery following the emergency surgery that occured from expert neurosurgeons just minutes after the injury and lasting through the night into the next day. Subsequantly I spent the next half year or so in the spinal cord and head injury unit of a hospital known for its superior work with helping trauma patients . In the early days in the trauma unit , seeing my new roomate with a very close injury as mine die in his first couple days there, followed by several others with injuries much much too gross and debilitating to have to remember or share in this venue; I asked God to help me find a way to live again despite whatever injuries or brain damage I am left with. I know many people the world over make promises like I did sometimes even being humorously as " Oh Jesus, if You help me get through this, I will never do '*this or that*' again ! And then the next day they do whatever vice they have again...But my promise was a little different. You see in my rehabilitation process in the spinal cord, head injury and trauma unit, also saw amazing strong will stories of love and miraculous recoveries. And I created my own.
I vowed to put one together myself and not only become a stronger, person but to use the rehabilitation period to launch a personal development program for me in mind, body, spirit and finances that I could eventually share with other crime or accident victims and their loved ones. That is how this started but as I began my research into never ending self improvement, I was able to help many more people worldwide develop their mind, body, finances and yes even share in a better spiritual relationship with the 'big guy'
I found much knowledge that I may not have been able to optimize because of some of the physical damage that was left after I was released from ECMC in a wheel chair. You see, having been miraculously left with only hemi-paresis ( I say miraculously because I was one out of a 100, 000 . My injuries to others have resulted in full lower paresis or even death. ) and of course the effects of trauma and brain damage from injury , not being able to use the one hand nor leg slowed me down some where others with health and a 'clear' brain function could benefit more. By this I mean, and as an example; Head injured may lose focus at times, get confused; short term memory lapses, poor communication because of several reasons as slurred speech, inability to think fast, not being able to recall , even losing track of the conversation itself. Early in the morning, late at night, whenever I was tired or as I found out as I aged the effects in all these conditions worsened. Maybe some of those seem familiar if you have been injured or know of someone injured . It's easy to rattle them off , since I've lived and succeeded through these effects for many years.
Continuing the physical rehabilitation after the release in the wheelchair that summer, advancing to a quad cane then regular cane , I also could no longer be perform the work I had been doing and lost my job of course .My small social security disability which they 'rewarded' me with was mostly sent to my now ex wife to support my two daughters that were living with us at the time of the crime. I loved my daughters and of course wanted to support them but splitting up a small SSI check , then not leaving the apartment except for outpatient rehab was not the way I was going to spend the next twenty years or so. I looked for ways to earn money from my apartment despite any limitations. I also looked for ways to improve my brain function and neuromuscluar activity. Every one of the gurus and scientists all wanted more money than I had . Personal Development Training also seemed out of reach financially.
The Office Of Vocational Rehabilitation in my state at that time helped me return to a college part time at first. Over the next year , I was able to but a couple used audio training sessions by the 'gurus ' in the field. I found an excellent buy at a flea market for only a couple of bucks where I picked up a classic "The Psychology of Achievement" from Brian Tracy and for another $5 , the 'Neuropsychology of Self Discipline' from Nightangale -Conant. These were both picked up at a fraction of what they cost. Wow, I wore these out and made it through a Mechanical Engineering Degree at SUNY then graduate management and applied statistics Study at RIT, a successful professional career despite the communication issues and physical limitations ... ( I did have to get my notes taken from another student who helped out as part of the OVR) At times I needed more tyime to get between classes too that was worked out in scheduling plus transportation. I thank the OVR again for helping out and recommend them for any injured person you know getting back in society)
Plus along the way have been able to start and grow successful streams of income from a home based businesses, keep current with brain research and improving iq, continuing with personal development traning
Now after a successful career and learning much on the web by either trial and error or bits and pieces from successful internet marketers; I'm helping many others for numerous reasons as extra income, retirement funding, financial independence, career success, getting smarter through my growing informational and resource websites or Free newsletter subscriptions below
