When I first heard about Scientology in the spring of 1971, I was in need of change and looking for answers to where I was going in my life.

     After reading the book Problems of Work by L. Ron Hubbard I saw where I should be going in life as opposed to where I wasn't going. I followed a few simple procedures in the book and I saw confusions in my life sort out magically. I was able to align my objectives and then align my environment to my new perspective of my life. Of course this was done with consideration for others whom I was willing to help and whose help I also welcomed.

     The basic misconception I got rid of was that you had to "adjust to your environment and accept your limitations" which was what was being forwarded by the so-called authorities in the field of mental health. With this 180 degree about face I regained my self-esteem and found that I really liked myself after all. Since this milestone in my life I have been able to achieve my objectives with a zest for life and lots of fun doing it.
