I have recently gone through training to become a Laughter Yoga therapist and it is absolutley fantastic and so beneficial for people. I would like to break into the corporate market with it but fear is holding me back, i have been working at a companyas a sales consultant for the last year and a half, and it has been really hectic and it is not my lifes purpose to remain here or to leave and do the same thing at another company. I feel like i am stuck in a rut and do not know where to start to get my company going....... *sigh*, I actually do know what i need to do but i just cant get started. B Hi Fairy Godmother

I think I went from a situation of total independence to one of total dependence. I not sure not sure that's entirely correct, although I'm leaning on the idea that I may have been blissfully unaware of how important some sort reward system was. I find that in the absence of such a system or environment, I'm stuck really. I just don't know what to do. And having an independent mindset has me not wanting to burden others too much with my own troubles. I know that I'm worth a whole lot more. Having difficulty sparking some sort of fire that I could believe in.
