Start Over: Create the Life You Want (and Deserve)

By Mary Jaksch

Have you ever had to start over in life? If so, you’ll know that big changes can be scary. The reason for the fear that can engulf us is that with sudden change, we lose any blueprint for life that we’ve been following.

Our lives can change abruptly from one moment to the next. At such times, it’s difficult to imagine that what may seem like a catastrophe may turn out to be an opportunity.

Look at the ordeal that a caterpillar has to go through in order to become a butterfly.

The chrysalis is trapped in a cocoon, where everything disintegrates. Then some cells cluster together as discs that carry a genetic blueprint for a new structure. And finally the butterfly emerges.

I recently shared my story with you of how I ended up in debt after a financial melt-down due to trusting the wrong kind of people. Looking back now, that terrible experience was actually an amazing opportunity.

At the time, I cast about to see what would help me to overcome this traumatic experience. In the end, I decided that writing a book on how to overcome difficult experiences would be helpful, both for me and for others. It was the birth of my book “Overcome Anything”.

But there was an important piece missing …

When I wrote ‘Overcome Anything’, I was focused on getting through the difficult experience. I hadn’t yet lived the next chapter – which is where what seemed a catastrophe turned into a blessing. I was still stuck in the “chrysalis” stage of transformation. Now, two years later, I’ve experienced the next chapter in my life, where I’ve gone from bust to boom.

I’m keen to share with you how to turn challenge into opportunity, like I did.

What you need in order to start over and create the life YOU want

What is most important is to have some role-models when your life has changes irrevocably. It helps to know that other people have gone through difficult times as well – and have come out on top. In addition, you need practical tips on what to do next, and how to heal and move forward.

Start Over: Create the Life YOU want

I’ve now finally finished the my new book Start Over: Create the Life YOU Want which shows not only how to overcome the first difficult phase of change, but also how to create something  that gives your life new meaning. Included are some wonderful stories of readers of how they started over, struggled, and finally found a new direction and ultimate success.

The Goodlife ZEN Start-Over Guide

I reckon that if you are faced with difficult change, just reading about what to do may not be enough. So, I’ve created the Goodlife ZEN Start-Over Guide which includes a workbook, two videos, and four podcasts.
