1. What do you do if your dream job is being a wife and mother?

2. Is it okay to use an idea that I read in a book or got at a workshop in my blog if I list the resource?

3. What is the quickest way to discover what you are passionate about and how to legitimately create income out of it?

4. I would like to do something in sales in the civilian sector, but I ‘m scared of the transition from military to civilian life.

5. I suspect I have ADD and self-esteem issues. It takes all my concentration to perform at work and raise two small kids. I know I’m intelligent and creative, so this frustrates me.

    For the 36-year-old woman who wants to marry and start a family, she should ABSOLUTELY read John T. Molloy’s book “Why Men Marry Some Women and Not Others.”

    It’s a book based on data gleaned from polls of over 2,500 women and their fiances, as they were leaving the marriage license bureau. Therefore, it’s loaded with tips for stacking the odds in your favor – including the best places to meet someone with marriage potential, the types of men who are the most likely to marry (at any given age), and the ones to completely avoid if you want to marry.

    If she’s dating as much as she said in the email to 48 Days, she’s either picking the wrong men, or there’s some other issue. I would also recommend the following books that would help her “stack the odds” in her favor (but just start with the Molloy book if you only have time to read one):

    How to Date Like a Grown-Up, by Lisa Daily; Laws of the Jungle: Dating for Women Over 40, by Gloria MacDonald and Thelma Beam; 4 Steps to Bring the Right Person Into Your Life Right Now, by Philippa Courtney; Calling In The One, by Katherine Woodward Thomas; Let Love In, by Debra Berndt, CHT; The Soulmate Secret, by Arielle Ford; and finally there’s an ebook called “The Right Man Online” by Adam Gilad, which is excellent if you’re dating online and can’t figure out why you keep attracting Mr. Wrongs, or Mr. Almost-but-not-quites. :)

    I recommend mixing up the methods of meeting people: try online dating (Match.com, OurTime.com are good; eHarmony has way more women members than men, so the odds are stacked against you there & so I can’t recommend it); speed dating; joining singles groups and attending singles events; hiring a dating coach (or eCyrano, at least, for an online dating profile makeover); doing volunteer work; and even contacting a high-end matchmaking service (they let women join free, but they have a much larger “stable” of women than men, since their clients are primarily the men who are paying big bucks for the service; you might not hear anything from them at all, or they might actually match you with someone very high quality). Good luck!!

      Also, Patti Stanger’s book “Be Your Own Matchmaker”, and Ronnie Ann Ryan’s book “Manifesting Mr. Right” are excellent, and Ronnie’s book is geared to older singles also. Patti’s book is more general, but she does give some age-specific tips as well.

        After reading all these books, you’ll get the process down to a science, and maybe you’ll write a book yourself – “48 Days to the Mate You’ll Love”? :)
