One Mom Teaches Success Expert
Lisa Dingman Quick Facts
I have been home schooling over 20 years. I have four children ranging in ages from 22 to 10. I have graduated two students out and I am now instructing my youngest two. Prior to home schooling I worked in the education field for 5 years at various private and public schools including teaching at Pinecrest Academy and Los Angeles Unified School District latchkey program.
During my years as a home school mom, I have used my experience and expertise to help other home school families by offering my services as an instructor for their children. I have instructed in speech class, drama class, arts and crafts and I have opened my farm to farm days and colonial days where we learn history, agriculture and the study of farm life through hands on experience. I have also served as an instructor for our parents Monthly, “Parents Nights” meetings where I instructed parents on issues such as record keeping, curriculum and how to manage home schooling and home with organization skills, time management and self discipline.
Recently, I coordinated the opening of a co-op group in where we secured a facility and taught homeschool children in a school type setting teaching them various subjects. After setting up curriculum, teaching the students and then instructing the parents on what to do, I handed the school over and it is still a success.
Currently, I am keeping active not only in the homeschool community but also in communities where I believe my family can reach more than homeschool goals but life goals.
First, I am the coordinator of a homeschool group where I organized events like park days, family outings and family fellowship parties. You can find us here at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/homeschoolconnectionsav/
Second, I am the web master to three homeschool websites.
The first is a site designed for homeschool resource: http://momteachessuccess.info/
The second is to help parents find great ideas, encouragement and inspiration. http://lisadingman.com/hss/
The third is to help parents form connections with other homeschooling families: http://lisadingman.com/HCAV/
Because I see the population continually headed down an unhealthy path, I am also an advocate for family health. I have several health, nutrition and weight loss websites.
The first is to help families with weight loss: www.5minto.goskinnyme.com
The second is where we challenge our families to start their own family 90 day challenge to eat healthy: http://theshortlink.com/Healthyandwealthy
Finally, because I believe that everyone deserves to live the lifestyle they dream about I am involved in the Prosperity Team where we Empower people every day and show them how to have success in home business, home school and life!

Teaching our students about Personal Responsibility.
Teaching our students about Personal Responsibility. For many, taking personal responsibility for the events and occurrences in their lives is easy. These people are highly successful and only rely on excuses some of the times. However, for most, excuses are a part of their lives. For most people, excuses are a belief system handed down from generation to generation and we now pass that bad habit to our children.

Are You Stuck In The Comfort Zone?
The comfort Zone! 90% of the population live here. They are satisfied with the way life is. They fit the description of an average American very well. This is called the comfort zone because like an old worn pair of jammies; it is comfortable. And people have gotten so comfortable in their jammies that Americans now wear their jammies out to play, shop and eat. When things are comfortable there is not a lot of work. You do just enough to get by and then that is it. In Work there is not striving to be better because if you do just enough to get by then you will still get paid.
