Passion is the key to success. If you love what you do and can make a difference, it pulls you out of bed every morning, gets you on the plane, gets you in front of people you never thought possible. Great going Dorothy! Go CEO Space!!

Super cool Dorothy! I hope you win the 25k!
Dorothy, what a brave step! Aloha, Vicky.
Dorothy, thank you for the encouraging message. I'm a former teacher too. I look forward to watching PiggybackBooks grow. Many doors seem locked; your message is that we need to keep looking for the one that is unlocked for each of us. You give us strength by finding and following your dream. Jon Richardson, Albuquerque, NM
Very creative and inspiring...thanks!
Dorothy, you inspire me. Kristyn
Loved it! So cute and inspiring Dorthy!
Fun, creative, funny, inspirational and well done. Brava goddess of passionate living! Keep the dream becoming reality and all those children, we will help together! Bless you for success as you are the winner!
Loved the message of this video! Like my "Knock-Kneed Cowboy," your message is both for kids and the "kid inside us all." As a former teacher who now serves students as a guest speaker to schools around the country, I see children whose lives are ripe for the messages we each have! I'm excited not only have you found YOUR passion but that you're also inspiring young minds to step onto their OWN yellow brick path! ~Billie
Dorothy, I want to congratulate you on this success. I remember when we first met and all of the tears. I always thought this was a great idea. You are on the yellow brick road to success.

Great idea Dorthy --- we need something like this. I have been teaching Financial Literacy to young people for a long time and they have such wonderful ideas that your non-profit will help them take their dreams to reality.
WAY TO GO.
This is a great idea -- and very much needed. I have been teaching Financial Literacy to youth for a long time and it is amazing how many wonderful ideas kids have regarding starting neat businesses.
I hope you win and go Big Time.

Finalist story from PiggyBackBooks:
As the calendar page turned to 2006 and my impending 50th birthday, I knew it was time to leave the security of Auntie Em's House, put Toto in the basket and search for that over the rainbow place. You see, having been named Dorothy, I had had a fascination with all things OZ since I first saw the movie on our old black & white t.v.-- you can imagine my delight - when I finally saw it in technicolor!
During that year, I started using a nutritional line that my good friend was selling and had amazing results. She said "you could do this" - I thought maybe this is my rainbow. So I said yes, and in the Twister of an MLM, I decided to leave the classroom after 25 years, eventhough I was acknowledged for my expertise and loved my career, I gave up full benefits and summers off to become an enterpreneur.
Sitting in my first convention - I knew I was not in Kansas anymore! This must be OZ! Surely if my friends who had been here for a year and were earning close to a 6 figure income, "Why or Why Can't I?" Without a thought to is this really what I am meant to do - I set out on the yellow brick road to the Emerald City.
At the beginning, there were Scarecrow moments - my friends and family saying - have you lost your mind - you you could retire in 5 years. There were Tinman moments, trying to figure out how instead of taking action. Too many Cowardly Lion moments, when I couldn't find the courage to open my mouth to even give my 30 second elevator pitch. The wicked witches, talking trees and flying monkeys appeared to scare and distract me. There were Glendas too, my mentors, to guide and coach me past my fears. I quickly rose to the top 15% of the company. I had made it! (or so i thought)
Then I hit a long plateau and no matter how hard I worked there was no increase. I had seen the wizard behind the curtain. I saw I wasn't home, my passions and unique gifts were not being used.
In what I call a "Click your Heels" moment! - I heard "Do what I love, do what you know and the cash will follow". As if by magic, PiggyBack Books was born - a website that will eventually empower millions of children around the world as authors and entrepreneurs. Once again, I am on the yellow brick road as we launch our kid centered engaging, interactive platform for children to write, illustrate, publish and market their own books.
Being an entrepreneur takes brain, heart, and courage and believing that:
OZ is the passionate journey on that yellow brick road, not the Emerald City.
As you set out on your road to enterpreneurship, know where home is.
What do you love? What are you good at?
DON'T CONFUSE HOME WITH COMFORT! In the discomfort, , you will grow!
Find mentors and availing yourself of personal and professional development. Be a lifelong learner.
Never make where you are on the road wrong, if it is not working check the compass - set your intention, align it to your passions, and take daily consistent actions. Don't Surrender!
You will find yourself in Oz.


Dear Friends, Colleagues, Family and everyone watching my video. I truly appreciate the time you are taking to watch this and rate it.
