No-one believed in this cutting-edge concept except myself and God, who gave me this idea in 2000 and 2006.
I started in 2012, and finished in 2024, self-funding this project. It has grown and changed and I have endeavored to ensure everything is current. If not please excuse my tardiness. I have had to learn 'how' on its journey.

(The scenes transition to the new millennium with newspaper pages flicking through, showing it’s ten years later, marking the passing of Michael Jackson and the release of "The Lord of the Rings".)
Entering the new millennium, Jane receives her most bizarre message yet: to "start a self-esteem day" accompanied by a vision of a black screen with a white line along the bottom. Apprehensive she shares it with a friend, who suggests this is her life purpose. Wrestling with self-doubt and negative thinking Jane strives to overcome her biggest hurdle.
In her continued pursuit of self-learning, she comes across Nelson Mandela’s famous poem, "Our Greatest Fear" and a particular line "Playing small does not serve the world", resonates with her. Realizing ‘playing small’ does not serve her either, she resolves to change.
Bullying re-appears in Jane’s life, this time from a co-worker then later her boss. Armed with her newfound knowledge and confidence, she refuses to be intimidated, standing up for herself against two six-foot men who tower above her.
When Jane's youngest daughter receives death threats via her mobile, she immediately takes action by involving the police. Meanwhile, her eldest daughter experiences bullying from girls at high school, mirroring Jane's experiences. Determined to protect her daughters' education, she makes the difficult decision to change her school.
The global financial crisis strikes resulting in the collapse of her corporate training business. Despite attempts to salvage her business by selling her rental property, she realizes it was global greed and beyond her control.

Penniless but resilient, Jane refuses to succumb to defeatism, setting new goals aligned with her vision from a decade earlier.
As her strained relationship falters and eventually dissolves due to revelations of deception Jane confronts the truth and moves out, embracing her newfound freedom.

Dear Janice,
We think "The Success Attitude' is an important fun and exciting project.
We love and seek out female centric projects because we think women, their work, what makes them tick, problems, success, their daily lives are so very important in our world now.
Your script strikes us as thus being in the main drive of our culture now.
Your lead the 'dramatic' Janice is a wonderful character. We became really fascinated with her journey and rooting for her success, happiness fulfillment, self-knowledge...we were with her all the way...
For these reasons and for the project's dramatic qualities, that could be an important film....as always great films begin with a well delivered scripts.
Congratulations on a job well done.
We look forward to helping you realize this exciting projects. Onwards and upwards.
Best Wishes

Janice Davies has asked me to introduce her. Currently there are two trends in development:
One is to have an international marketing platform already in place. Janice has this and expanding it.
The other trend that is on point here is the genre of her film. So many ‘lean-in’ stories are now being developed. These are stories of heroines in victim circumstances who prevail armed with nothing but shear spunk. “The Success Attitude” is just such a story.
There is something about Janice. Meet her and you’ll be captivated by her sincerity and unflagging belief that her project will be made. Women admire her and are inspired by her story. There is a feeling that if she can triumph they can too. That’s a leadership quality that makes all the difference.

Over the years I have known Janice, as a dear friend and fellow traveler on this road we call life. Along her many paths in life she been led by an inner voice that has challenged and encouraged her to accept the invisible and unknown aspects of life while coming to under- stand that these experiences are so often more profound in truth than the seeing eye can perceive.
Janice has always shown a capacity to keep stepping out of her com- fort zone to embrace new horizons of self-learning and discovery while also following her inner guidance to work in ways to help others to discover their own self-worth and purpose in life.
Janice has written her book with a deep and genuine desire to share her experiences in order to encourage other people to share their own special story with more confidence of being heard and accepted.
