Excuse Me, Your Life is Waiting

Excuse Me Your Life is Waiting, Lynn Grabhorn This is the missing piece! I think she could have done the same with a book half the size, but the point is hammered home. It is not just about thinking your way rich, thin, happy, successful, healthy, abundant, or any other way you want to be,…
