A marital affair. Things were wrong on both sides and through maturity we mended and now have a 10x better life and marriage.

Losing my job forced me to pursue my passion and led me to a better career.

My older brother and sister giving me beers when I was in 8th grade. Didn’t stop drinking until I was 35.

Getting a permanent job and holding it down... It taught me how to act confidently, communicate and that I can act! For the most part most people will never know what I'm thinking.

Almost dying of pulmonary emboli. Really puts into perspective what’s important and what’s not. Realized I was living my life for other people and not for myself. Needless to say as soon as I was healthy again I stopped that shit in its tracks. Now I live for me and no one else. Also, I work to live not live to work. When you realize how short your time is you don’t want to spend it making someone else rich or missing out on experiences for a few extra dollars.

Getting the chance to go to Portugal when I was 20 opened the door of traveling to me. 10 years later and I'm over 40 countries and counting

Deciding to face my depression. I denied it for years and did everything to ignore it. It was a really rough road for a while, but things have gotten so much better since I made some changes in my life. I think the biggest turning point was leaving my home town and dropping contact with everyone there besides my parents.

Mustering the courage to tell my parents that I'm miserable, depressed, etc and I hate my university course. Got sent to the doctor, then I was shipped to a mental hospital, a lot of pills and therapy later I'm ok. I found I absolutely LOVE Air Con and Refrigeration Systems, so I started my small company that's fortunately going well. So yea, dropping out to find my passion for..Fridge stuff.
