Hi Donna

I did your dream mapping workshop on 6 June 2010, arriving as a sceptic and not really sure of why I was attending except that it was recommended by friends and I figured it couldn’t hurt!

I was really inspired during the workshop and left not only with a goal of what I wanted to achieve in the future but also the belief and determination that I could make it happen.  I started my Future Imagined Memory exercise the next morning and although I wasn’t always successful with the exercise every morning, I did try to think about the memory at least once a day.

Part of my goal for the future was a need to be personally financially secure to enable me to achieve the other part, namely to be a philanthropist for animals,  pet owners and animal welfare agencies.  It’s now been less than 3 weeks since the workshop and yesterday I received the most amazing telephone call from my father.  He told me that he and my stepmother suddenly decided to give us kids part of our inheritance early and that in the next week I will be receiving a lump sum of money that will secure my future whether I continue to be employed or not.

The old sceptic in me would have said I didn’t do anything because it is an inheritance I would have received anyway.  But the new believer in me knows that I helped manifest my father’s decision through my thoughts and dreams.  And this only happened because I attended your workshop.

So thank you – you really do help people make their dreams come true.  And I’m so glad I attended your workshop.

With thanks and kind regards

Soon to be philanthropic animal fairy godmother!

Last week, I was excited to be sprinkling fairy dust over Adrian Loveland at the launch of his first documentary called Jo’burg Unhinged.

Adrian has spent the last 3 years working on this awesome documentary. As a patriotic Jo’burger, Adrian, as the lead character takes you on a real trip through the ups and downs, highs and lows of Jo’burg and gives a very balanced view about this World Class African City.

Well done on turning your documentary dream into reality, Adi!

Mike Walker loves wearing a multi-coloured beanie (those woollen hats) on cold, wintery days. Mike Walker also loves his Granny (Gogo = Zulu for Granny). He combined these two loves, to form a project, Gogo Beanies, that is now creating hundreds of jobs and lighting up people’s lives.

A few years ago, Mike would visit his Gran weekly in her old age home and one day had an inspired thought “Gran could knit him some beanies for winter”. So, on the next visit, he took along some wool and she happily knitted her grandson some woolly beanies. He was delighted, she was delighted! And when he experienced her delight he realised that he should get more wool for her to make some more. Thus Gran was on a roll of making beanies and the question arose of “how many beanies can one man really wear?”

So Mike started giving some beanies to his friends. The other grannies in the old age home became inspired by the delightful energy of beanie making and they, too, began to knit beanies. All the time Mike kept taking more and more wool and more and more beanies were being knitted and soon Mike and all of his friends had more than enough beanies. The Grannies, however, didn’t want to stop because making beanies gave them a feeling of purpose and it was at this stage that Mike had another inspired thought “what about giving beanies to orphans for winter?” Thus Gogos made beanies and Mike gave beanies to orphans and Gogo Beanies was truly born…

To cut a long story short (too late, I know!), M-net has recently sponsored R 2 million to the project but with a slightly different spin – now not only Gogo’s knit beanies but women in rural areas can knit beanies and the R 2 million will ensure R50 goes to the knitter for every beanie knitted.

So, suddenly, Mike’s project has gone from just making Grannies and Orphans happy to now

1x beanie = a job for a day!

That’s the power of following your passion!

A BIG Fairy Godmother Wand Wave to Mike Walker for following his passion, spreading love and taking just one step at a time on a powerful journey.

Help Mike to keep grannies and the unemployed kitting and to keep orphans warm…
