My success is kind of broad and so touches several areas of my life. The best way to say it is, before Scientology, I was sad and depressed. I was alone and did not really have many friends. I was always wasting time, getting in trouble and had really, no future that was not more of the same.

     I felt pretty burnt out -- like I was just going through the motions. I felt there should be more to life and that my life did not make sense.

     When I found Scientology and Dianetics. I was looking for answers -- answers about life and others as well as myself.

     I wanted to understand.

     I was skeptical at first. I read some books on specific areas of life and then looked around me and saw these things happening around me.

     Life is based on natural laws. Scientology is not something you believe in, it is something you USE and see that it DOES work that way.

     I began to understand life, within which, if understood you know how to be happy. How to achieve your goals. You are able to dream again with reality that you can do anything and be anything or have anything you want to go for.

     Now, I have a beautiful wife and we're expecting our first child. Without Scientology, I probably would not even be alive today -- to say nothing of being happily married.

     My life is a miracle. As a teenager I drank to the point of unconsciousness, smoked pot to the same end and was active enough to be known by all the cops in my town by name.

     I live a new life now.

     Life is a game and I am a player. It takes work. You have to want more for yourself. Scientology is not something you think about. It's something you understand and use. It's the rules of the game. You can win.

     Mr. Hubbard said Scientology is for able people to be more able. It's for someone who can look.

     It's for you.
