Can You Go From “A Suicidal Mess” to “A Success”?

So your life has not been going smoothly and it looks like your story is going to be a sad ending.

You have suffered so much that no one understands your pain. You wonder if nature is just all out to get you and make your life miserable.

What if you were raped at the age of 14 and lost your virginity to the point that it changed your life forever?

What if people abused your essence to the point that you looked more like a piece of rubbish? What would you do?

Isn’t it better to just give up and leave this world? What more can you get from this world when you are so depressed that you just don’t know what to do?

These are thoughts that kept haunting Lorraine as her world kept crumbling.

Lorraine was a rape victim who later became a prostitute, a drug addict, and a high school dropout, not to mention a single a mother at the age of 18.

One would think that her life would come to an end and it almost did. However, Lorraine was able to overcome her suicidal thoughts and make a difference.

She then became a certified English teacher, a freelancer, an entrepreneur, and an author.

What Lorraine teaches us About Overcoming Suicidal Thoughts

You Can Write Your Own Story

Despite all the challenges Lorraine faced in her life, in the midst of all the darkness, she was able to make a tremendous U-turn and make a difference in her community.

Lorraine is now a writer, an editor, a freelancer for hire, and an entrepreneur that now has 9+ income streams.

It is easy to make an excuse and point fingers at others, but, as Lorraine showed, you are responsible for what you want to be in life.

Who do you want to be when you grow up?

Do you want to be the one who blames others for your circumstances or do you want to be the one who designs his reality?

Don’t Belittle your Essence

The sad thing is that people don’t understand whom they are in the world.

This is why people use their gifts to do horrible things to others without realizing how much their essence means to the world.

What you don’t realize is that you can make or break your world with your words and action in ways you never imagined.

You matter to the world and there are so many people whom through your existence will have their issues solved.

Don’t leave a legacy that will hurt your community. Be an inspiration and make a difference.

You Can’t Overcome Depression Alone

So many people have died because they kept pretending to be fine when depression and suicidal thoughts were eating their soul.

Your Weakness is an Asset

I wrote about how much your weakness can become an asset and Lorraine has proved this point. She is making a difference by helping people to overcome their suicidal thoughts, teaching them how to be success, and how to live a happier life.

Her book and story has saved a lot of lives and her journey is giving people the power to unravel their purpose.

Lorraine was also a guest on my website when she taught us What to Do When Your Family Does Not Support You Emotionally.

Remember that your weaknesses gives you an opportunity to make an impact. You have all it takes to change the world. Your existence is enough to make a difference.

Your Weakness empowers others to grow

If you have gone through the mountain, through the storms, and you are victorious, your weakness will give you an advantage. The world is waiting to hear your experience and be inspired by your success story.

You have got something special to offer the world, so go make a difference.

You can start by changing your mindset.
