The following share comes from Mindset Mastery Program Honors Graduate Laura Da Silva, who writes:

"At the end of 2017 I became interested in learning kickboxing (it was like my body was "craving" it). So for Christmas my husband, Laerte Da Silva, got me 10 classes at a local kickboxing gym. I loved it! I loved the results!

"But I wasn't impressed with the monthly price, so I decided I wanted to get a kickboxing bag so I could do it at home! In the meantime I continued to kick box with just my gloves as I kept thinking how great it would be to have a bag.

"A few months later I wrote the following statement:

"'I am so happy and grateful now that I have a kickboxing bag that is 69 inches tall (the one in the picture has 4 height levels to choose from!) and 18 inches in diameter. It cost $50. It is a free standing bag that is easy to fill with either sand or water. it has a vinyl cover and is made of high density foam, making it strong and durable. It is black and goes from the base up. I enjoy using it to strengthen my body. It is also a great way to release any negative emotions. I love using it, as I continue to love kickboxing.'

[A bag like this generally sells for $140-$300]

"Within a week my husband found one as described, and brought it home to me! So excited!"

Congratulations, Laura!
