Ted shares his wins from specific topics in our Courses on a regular basis throughout out Internal Training Calls & I wanted to share a little bit of his story with you here...

💙 "After leaving the Police Force, I suffered from what is now labelled PTSD. Although I had no idea at the time what that was, it was the scariest thing I've ever experienced.

About four years ago I joined Prosperity Of Life and immediately got involved with the community and started using the Personal Development products. As I have stated many times since, using these products daily has not just changed my life but I believe saved it. It's not uncommon to hear that some of my previous colleagues haven't made it through their dark days.

I could not express my gratitude enough for both the Courses and the Daily Live Streams we get here because there are no words, but I believe I have found the cure to everything I have or could suffer from. I am a new person with a new and wonderful free life. I can only express my gratitude and say thank you."
