Henri Landwirth’s story really touched me! I feel so inspired to accomplish my dreams. I see now, more than ever that anything is possible if you work hard towards it. This book will change a lot of lives! I know it has certainly changed mine!

Wow! Thank you Vonda for this wonderful gift! As a daughter who has spent her life trying desperately to be the ‘wind beneath the wings’ of a mother with grand desires and world vision, I read your book in an attempt to be more useful to her. I was not ready for the surprising and wonderful side effect. My own success became apparent as well as the great many things I have been doing to get in my own way… and therefore my mother’s! I can’t tell you how many times us kids (and there are eight of us!) made fun of mom for always writing her goals down on paper and taping it to the walls around our house growing up. Thank you for pointing out the importance of this exercise. I will never make fun of mom for ‘inking’ it again. As a matter of fact I have enthusiastically joined her! I certainly would recommend Success Against the Odds to anyone with a dream. Even a forgotten one… Thank you for sharing so candidly your story.

My 11 year old son has never done well in school because of bad behavior and not caring about doing well in school. I’ve tried many ways to help him. I do like some of the tips you’ve provided especially about writing down goals and helping him achieve them. Thankfully his school year just ended but I’ll work with him during the summer on achieving goals. Thanks!

Vonda, thank you for your inspirational words! I am finally reaching all my goals with your success package. It’s a goal at a time because of your written words in your book and success tips in your planner. Your book and planner is truly liberating!

Vonda was outstanding on my radio station! Everyone loved what she had to say. She was very informative and used her experience to let people know that anyone can change their life.

You’re right on target with the goal setting! I especially like the “dream boards” as I refer to them. I have heard story after story about personal accomplishments with the dream board power!

You were the keynote speaker at the NAPW chapter meeting that was held on Tuesday, November 1st, 2011 in Tampa. On behalf of Ms. Laquita, as well as myself, want to thank you for giving such a wonderful, insightful, and inspirational, presentation. Your words were very encouraging and heartfelt. Ms. Laquita purchased your book, and shared it with me, and so far, we have been putting your success tips in action. It’s only been two days since we were blessed with your appearance, and there’s already been a positive change that can be seen and felt throughout the company. The companys’ morale is at an all time high. With our employees visualizing, implementing, mapping, and taking the steps to achieve their goals, both in personal and in business, a new wave of optimism and determination has definitely changed the business for the better. For this we thank you. Speaking of business, Ms. Laquita, also wanted to thank you for showing an interest in our company and our underwater dock lighting product. We would like to send you more information, only if it’s okay with you, to read at your leisure. Again, thank you so very much for opening our eyes to the possibility of making our dreams become a successful reality, against the odds!!

I love this book! I was just thinking about how wonderful the title is and how pertinent to everyone’s unique situation. My brothers were autistic when my mom adopted them, she was told to expect institutions in their futures… Now three of the four live on their own, pay their own bills and survive broken hearts like everybody else, and not in an institution. Success Against the Odds! My brothers are now taking turns reading this important book. Thanks!

I want to tell you that I’ve read your book through for the first time. I feel like it has caused a shift of some sort already. I resigned my draining job on Monday. I am not sure what the next step will be, but I am sure that your “system” will play an integral and positive part. The whole idea of writing down my goals had escaped me, and now it’s consistently on my mind. I have already accomplished at least six specific goals — not career-related — but very satisfying and personally important, since receiving your book. In addition, all the comments about faith in God and in myself have been particularly special to me.

It was a delight having you as a guest on the program. Your book ‘Success Against the Odds’ has so many inspiring stories filled with down-to-earth information that just about anyone can use. In these difficult times it is refreshing and uplifting to read stories about others who have overcome difficult challenges rising from ashes of disappointment, poverty and disillusionment. I wish you the best in all of your endeavors and should you put together another book be sure to send me a copy.
