Rebecca/Jan's Trike info

Also I would love more information on writing reviews for Jan. Where and when do we sign up? How long do the reviews have to be? Are all States eligible? Just details in general".....*Thanks, Rebecca! It was encouraging to see progress. I hope to do even better for the August Challenge; I need to be more consistant.
*Napolean Hill is the "granddaddy of em all" when it comes to motivational speakers. Those quotes were from a book he wrote in 1937. He was deeply touched by the heartache, brokeness, hopelessness, and devastation that the market crash of 1929 had on people. That "depression" was more than an economic fact; it was an emotional fact. So, he took his 30 YEARS of research into what it took to be successful, and wrote a book with the intention of offering HOPE and a plan to help people rebuild their lives. Yes, the main thrust of the book at that time was financial success. Obviously, on the heels of the Great Depression that made sense. But the PRINCIPLES hold true for any worthy goal. It is for achieving my HEALTH goals that I am reading it. It really is exciting stuff! As I read, whenever he says "money" or "riches" or "finances", in my mind I read it as accomplishing my goals, achieving success, getting healthy! The principles are the same.
*I got the ebook, Think and Grow Rich, for $1.99 on eBay. But I KNOW it is at the library. To me, the title says: Think and Grow Healthy! hahahahahaha....
*Oh, before I forget...anyone interested in CAMPAIGN: JAN'S TRIKE, can go to www.insiderpages.com, and read about their review program. But wait til Jan comes back to sign up, from her invitation, so she gets credit. Otherwise, it won't help her. They only require 50 words for the review. Gee, by the time I say what I like most about it, tell about the physical looks of the place, the parking situation, the customer service, special products or services, maybe the hours, etc, I was ALWAYS over that, easily.
*And lastly, Rebecca: that took courage to post your innermost feelings. You have my respect, and my prayers.
*Hugs, Loretta in Oregon =^..^=
