Local Social Services to help you
 No one is born into a perfect life, you came here on earth to make your dreams come true, and no matter where you are now, what bad circumstances and obstacles you must overcome, you are fully equipped with everything you need to do it!
     You were born with belief in yourself to be successful, and so if you don't believe in yourself today it just means that in your life you have accepted other people negative opinions as 'truth'.....and have maintained that lack of belief by repeating to yourself those lies.......stop it. THINK OPPOSITE and say to yourself, daily 'I can do it and people and resources will show up to help me succeed.'         One step at a time is all you can ever take....... The path out of poverty to become better will never unfold in the way you think anyway, so just keep bringing yourself back to 'what is the next wise thing to do' in prayer to receive instructions to pull yourself up and out.        
Knowledge is one of the ways to break the shackles of a limiting environment (depression, illiteracy, poverty). No matter how grim your world is if you can hear or read about the accomplishments of others, you can create the beliefs that allow you to succeed.

  Interview Checklist             Broke-to-Better Blogs, Nomopofolks Association, Dallas, Texas
If you focus positively on a goal as doable and not rationalize, compromise, doubt or worry,
you will achieve it.... Life really does provide you with 'equal opportunity' ...when you really put your mind to it, people, information and money, shows up to help you towards your goals Even if you face tough obstacles with no support, the right resources, connections shows up to help you to achieve your goal, if you 'just believe' This is how people overcome addictions, illnesses, athletes become champions, business people become millionaires and the 'ugly' duckling marries the pretty prince. When life trials come and get you down and there is dreariness all around, focus on your vision of being happy doing what you really want to do...... the questions 'woulda and shoulda', 'how come' and 'why did this happen to me', only keeps you stuck where you are, which is where you do not really want to be. People who make career comebacks or overcome life tragedies, understand this principle very well, because when you lose everything, the only thing you have left is your 'imagination and belief' in better days ahead, (gotta lookup to get up)...even when you can't see it or feel it, just say 'what you really want to do' out loud to yourself....it will still get you to ponder the question ....what would it take for me, to get to where I really want to be. Write your goals down and why you want to achieve them......it will help to cement your believe in what you are trying to accomplish. When your why is strong enough the how shows up in your life. A belief is only a thought you keep thinking over and over again, just name it and feel good imagining it .......you can achieve whatever you focus on, and I do mean whatever you focus on Just Believe! What you focus on, comes to you......
