This is about my ‘lucky’ life, thanks to having a positive attitude and practicing positive thinking.<\/p>\n

I believe it is because of my positive upbringing that I have always been a positive person. Over time, I learned how much thoughts and words influence our lives through various sources like Oprah, The Secret<\/a>, and self-help books. When I was 19, I moved from Norway to London, expecting a brief stay. Surprisingly, I met my future husband just a week after arriving, and we have been happily married since 1995 with a wonderful 12 year old son.<\/p>\n

Living in the south of France and Spain sparked my creativity. My sister’s gift of art inspired me to pursue painting seriously. It took some time, but in 2019, I decided to manifest my dream of becoming an artist. Out of nowhere, a friend offered me a pop-up exhibition in London, leading to more opportunities, including a gallery offer and a display opposite Harrods. Just as I was about to deliver 15 pieces to the shop, the COVID pandemic lockdown hit, but soon after, I sold 14 paintings to a friend’s family and made \u00a315,000. When one door closes, another one opens!<\/p>\n

After a quiet period due to a move, I refocused on my art. Within months, I had my work displayed in a local shop in Marbella, Spain. I was able to connect with other artists, which led to more exhibitions and collaborations. Thank you, thank you, thank you!<\/p>\n

I believe in trusting the process, staying positive, and letting opportunities flow naturally.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
