Welcome to Steemit Ron. Thanks for sharing your journey, I look forward to hearing more. Keep that positive attitude. Its inspirational.

Thanks @jennsky - looking forward to becoming a part of the steemit community

You have a great attitude Ron, nice post, great photo's. Looking forward to reading of your Ebay adventures.

Nice post. Your putting in the time over the years to develop your side business has really paid off for you and your family in the face of job loss and health problems. How devastating it must have been to hear that your kidneys had totally failed. I hope you get your transplant sooner rather than later. I wish more people were willing to be donors. I have met some transplant recipients, including a woman who got a pancreas and kidney. They were so grateful for a second chance at life and health.

@steemerpat...thanks, appreciate your thoughts. Was pretty shocking to hear but I made the decision early on to keep a positive attitude, and I am sure that has been a huge help to my family and myself in getting through day by day. Its funny now how if i come across anyone with negativity spewing out of their mouth I tend to avoid them instantly.

my man you are blessed !!to have lived in a beautfull contry an to have travled like you did !! i want to share something with you that will help you leve more comfortable an with Gods blessing a lot longer with your family !! you can have it for FREE !!1an you can make all the money you want with it !!!James Dickerson a lot people are lerry of checking out a proven winner but my friend earnest has the right comcept with CTFO http://528610.chewthefatoff.com/freebiz
Your emails are encouraging, informational, and motivational for me. I am excited each time I get one. They are helping me form my emails to my down line. You are awesome.
I started with CTFO in the end of July 2016. I loved the concept, but like everyone else I wanted to see if I could make it work the way it promised.
I immediately, within minutes of signing up, started promoting my links. In the first 3-4 days I had my first 3 enrollees. I was promoting with free FB ads. My 3rd new member made a purchase, and put me into the "paid" category. At this point I had not spend a cent yet, and I had a downline, and an income.
I got excited, so I bought some clicks (45). In that order I got 5 new enrollees. Before I got those new members, I ordered Chew the Fat off, and super 7. One for me and one for my wife (I don't need to lose weight).
Since then I have gotten other new members on FB. I have another paying customer, and I am now on clicks auto-ship. This is my first time ever to sign anyone up, and to make any money on the Internet.
I am totally sold because the Super 7 has been incredible for me. I call it my awesome positive energy. I am never tired now. I do all the work that needs to be done around the house without even thin king about it. I am alsothinking clearly. I write a lot, and was starting to get bogged down. Now I am writing again.
I am contacting my members almost daily with a variety of positive and encouraging emails. I also send them a product ad in once or twice per week, just to keep the products in front of them. I am sure some of them will begin to catch on with how awesome this is.
I write my own ads for FB, and I have a Graigslist ad, and another free add out there somewhere. when the opportunity comes up I tell everyone why I am feeling so good. They can see the positive in me.
I am all in, and hope to have a snowball effect starting soon.
Thanks for your encouraging emails. I love the information and motivation you provide for me. I do a lot of motivational speaking and this product, Super 7, is really giving me an extra boost of energy for that. The thinking clearly plays a great roll in that as well. http://528610.chewthefatoff.com/freebiz

Welcome Ron! Nice to see more people coming in to Steemit. And your story is a book in itself. Thanks for sharing it. Somehow, it also reminded me of my own health.

There has been so much going on here right now on Steemit. And I want to share with you a very good post from one of our Steemit pioneers @stellabelle. I thought you might want to take some time to read it.

Welcome to Steemit Ron. That's an inspirational story.

thanks for the kind words @nubchai ...not too sure about inspirational, just telling it like it is.

Thank you for your post. I share your attitude(and your love for cars) I too started out as a mechanic. I have had a rollercoaster ride as well. All you can do is hang on and enjoy it.

Awesome a kindred spirit! Once cars are in your blood it never leaves you...ill be posting soon about my car collection and my favourite muscle car!

Welcome to Steemit! Life is nothing if not filled with twists and turns - and you're showing the kind of resilience that will get you through this latest challenge. I hope you'll keep writing.

hi @steemitpatina thanks for the welcome! Its just a day by day thing, ive been dealt a low card recently but there is many other people worse off than me. Just have to make the best of things and try to find the silver lining.
Yep planning some more posts now so shouldn't be far away!
