Dean Graziosi Weekly Wisdom #212 - From Broke to Blessed

This is the story of a lady who was at the end of her rope and bought a book, took action and changed her life. It is a true story. An inspiring story. An emotional story... and it could be your story.

That very lady, went from being broke and near hopeless, to changing her own life and blessing others. Now she has had the chance to deliver a blessing that YOU (yes you) helped create. Enjoy!

AWED..

I am awed at the complete WW. At Dean his big HEART, and Carol her overcoming her struggles. At the donations with the contributed prayers.
Thank you for sharing that with us.

Thank You Dean and Carol....

For letting us be a part of something so wonderful. To include our comments and allow our prayers to bring an amount so great to so many who are in desperate need is truly amazing and only speaks volumes of the kind of man you are and what you have achieved with DG.com.

WE ARE PROUD, to be called your DG family and will ALWAYS continue to be a part of it. Carol did such a great job because she is the most giving, loving, compassionate woman I know!

This is what makes DG.com so special. We have always instilled giving back and paying it forward since the site was up and it only continues to grow and for that I am truly thankful that I am a part of something much bigger than a real estate forum.

God bless you Dean for all you do to make the world a better place!!

Sincerely,
Elena Margaritis

Glad to see what is being done on Staten Island and they have not been forgotten. It does make a big difference. I have always enjoyed going back to look at some of Carol Stinson's early entries in her journal when she was just getting started in RE a few years back. It's pretty cool to see that she had to take those initial first steps just like everyone else.

I have always been

I have always been fascinated with Carol's story. It was nice to see her present the check to the pastor. "Happy Holidays" to you Dean and DG family. Smiling

A Good Deed

Such a good thing to do, and the pastor will put it to good use. I am so glad that the DG family cares about others. Thank You Dean for letting us be a part of your good deeds.

Donation from DG group to Sandy victims

Great work on the behalf of the DG family to raise the dollars it did and present them to Carol and her ministry. Your generosities do not go unnoticed and my plan is to get very involved with my real estate business plan and efforts in January. Great work!

Hi Dean: Great to see Carol give the check to the Pastor. Each day something else will be done in Staten Island and the other parts of NY and NJ. Always loved the Jersey Shore from Atlantic City to Cape May. Spent alot of time in NYC, just love it.

Like Carol, we can all get in our own way. Get Past it.

Thank you, Dean for all that you do for everyone.

Inspirational and Generous

Dean, I have been on quite a few live chats with Carol and she is quite inspiring, motivational, as well as knowledgeable. I was glad to see that Carol was able to give the check since she can relate to those who may not have much of anything left. And, a thank you to you who so generously donated that money in your name as well as the
DG family- it was very kind and helped people to see how earning money can not just help yourself, but others too!
Thanks, Linda

Touched and moved to tears!

It was a great idea to put the prayers and comments into a binder and deliver to the Pastor. I am sure it will bring comfort to many who have access to read it.

I couldn't be anything but happy for Carol Stinson and her exceptional accomplishments. She is extremely blessed to have been able to work past her own mental roadblocks and even though he was out of work I am positive that having a supportive loving husband was a factor. It's really nice to see someone overcome their obstacles and be able to make a difference in other peoples lives. It only goes to show that some people have what it takes. It's wonderful and exciting.

I am wishing Happy Holidays for everyone.

Dean

You are one awesome man.

I've known alot of weathly people in my lifetime including my parents.

Unfortunatly, my sister stole all of my inheritence and left me stone cold broke as she was appointed as the Executrix of the Estate.

Had I received my due inhertitence, I had plans on investing in Real Estate and becomming a small philanthropist as I see more and more people in need.

As it ended up my sister who was already well off succeded in stealing over 1 million dollars from me as well as keeping over 1 million of her half. She ended up with over 2 million dollars and I with under $80,000.

It broke my heart that my own sister would do this to me as I have never done anything against her to warrant the action she took.

GREED.
I was away from the US for 20 years living in New Zealand.

Upon my return in 2007 people asked me if I could see the change in America since my absence of 20 years.

At first I did'nt notice much change other than the population growth and building structures that were new.

After about a month I realized there had been a big change in America. It was not in the population or the new construction and buildings but in the People of America.

After living in a place such as New Zealand and then coming back after 20 years I noticed a huge change in what was once proud and honest Americans.

It seems today Americans have lost compassion,honesty,sympathy, empathy, respect, kindness, remorse, and any qualities that make up a decent human being.

Instead, Americans today seem self centered, greedy, dishonest, untrustworthy, careless and just plain old selfish.

I feel much of this has to do with politics and the media. Americans tend to believe everything they hear or read and are gullable to the point of being lead down the wrong road. The road we are traveling today.

America needs more people like you Dean.

America used to pride itself on people like yourself.

What do you think has happend to America Dean?

We still have people that think America is God's Country!

How and why do once good people turn bad?

Is this just how America is today?

Great cause

Wow - amazing. I love Carol. She truly is an example for each of us. A tower of strength.
Fantastic that so much money was able to go to this pastor. I am confident that it will be put to good use.
Very humbling indeed!
So nice to have a physical reminder in hand with all the prayers and good wishes for the good folks in New Jersey, in the form of that book. Just lovely!

Well said!

Dean

How would I find a student in Ohio that is having some success in this program ???? I'm not having any luck in getting this to work, and the advisors keep telling me to do the same things that aren't working for me. I have asked for some new ideas to implement in my area that would produce some results,,,, but so far no luck in getting things to work !!!!
Any help would be great !!

Thanks,

That is so awesome. There is nothing like the heart of a giver who sees a purpose that is bigger than they are. A person with that type of heart will always see success in their lives, so Dean, Carol and anyone else who reads this and have that heart of a giver you will continue to be abundantly blessed!

You couldn't have picked a better person to represent what the DG family is all about....Helping others! Hopefully more people will donate as you have so the rest of the clean up can get done. Even today, 5 some weeks after the storm, there are many still with no power. They still need our help. Let's not forget them!
