Today*s tip is special.

Which is why I saved it for now. Right at the end of the year.

Because at this time either you are looking for something to cap off an amazing year. Looking for something to forget a dismal year.

Or looking for some shread of hope that things can get better.

They can.

In 2008, Corey Vidal, just barely out of high school, was homeless. The only reason he wasn't out on the streets were friends let him sleep on their couch. By his own admission he didn't even have a pillow.

Less than 12 months later he*d been nominated for a People*s Choice Award. (He came in 2nd to Barrack Obama).

That*s quite a leap -- (whether you like Obama or not).

What rescued him? What transformed his days from a fight for survival to a living dream?

What saved his life . . . literally? (His words, not mine)

YouTube.

I know that sounds crazy. But if make time to watch one video over the next few days ... make it this one.

Its a story so improbably, so unbelievable, it could only be true.
