We all live in a world that we fill up with our dreams and goals. When we are young we believe everything is possible, there are no limits to the dreams and goals we have or what we feel we are able to achieve.
As we get older, often dreams and goals become more adapted to the “realities” of life and we begin to develop a more “realistic” consciousness, and thus develop what we believe to be more realistic goals. Many believe that this is normal – the longer you live, the more experience and knowledge you collect, and the narrower your frame of possibility becomes.
Many would-be advisers caution others not to think too highly of themselves, or not to carry too lofty of a goal for fear of failure. While still others fear being ostracized for daring to think outside the box.
This program will teach you to remove society’s limitations and open yourself to new paradigms and ways of thinking. It will introduce you to the real you, the one filled with unlimited potential. It will teach you to remove your reality straitjacket and move and think freely – without limits!
You will learn how to control your subconscious to create new dreams – both big and small. You will learn how to manifest those dreams into reality on a daily basis and how to control your thoughts and limit the negative thinking forced upon you by society.
You’ll discover how to improve relationships, lose weight, attract success and happiness, gain wealth and sense of worth, unleash your creative genius, reach important life goals, and clearly define what you want most in life!

Even as a maid in the infamous Kremlin, life in 16th-century Russia is bleak and treacherous. That is, until Taras arrives.

While there, he gains favor from the Tsar later known as Ivan the Terrible, the most brutal and notorious ruler ever to sit upon the throne of Russia.
Up against the social confines of the time, the shadowy conspiracies that cloak their history, and the sexual politics of the Russian Imperial court, Inga and Taras must discover their past, plan for their future and survive the brutality that permeates life within the four walls that tower over them all, or they may end up like so many citizens of ancient Russia: nothing but flesh and bone mortar for the stones of the Kremlin wall.
