Hey Everyone!
If I haven’t already said welcome, or it is your first time sitting down and reading a post on our blog. Welcome!
There are a few great moments that I can recognize as being significant in my life. I promise you this is worth reading as I am about to explain how I started my new life after I lost TEN HOUSES, and well… pretty much everything else that I had worked so hard to get.
So, what are these great moments?
Well, right off of the bat, I can think of three great moments in my life. One, when I hit my first homerun…Two, when I bought my first house, and started to see what passive income really looks like! Three, when I lost my houses… ALL TEN OF THEM!
So wait? Why is number three.. well.. number three!?
Don’t get me wrong, I honestly wish I didn’t lose everything that I worked so hard to get. I had it all for a while there, I had ten houses and counting, I had two vehicles (I don’t need to say what kinds) and I had CASHFLOW! I even had a nice gal that stuck by me when everything blew away with the wind of 2008.
Losing everything can really make you think about a few things you could have done better. But most importantly, it lite a fire under my “You know what” and I felt it deep inside of me. You know what kind of feeling I am talking about. The kind of feeling that makes you think, WOW! I am NOT happy! I am ready God, just HELP me find something that fulfills me! I am ready to go, I am motivated, I am ready to succeed! That’s right, nothing can make you more motivated to succeed then a bunch of people acknowledging you just failed… BOOooo…
As I write sometimes I forget the main reason for telling you all of this, so let me hit that point right now:)
To sum it up, in 2008 I lost just under one million dollars worth of “net worth”. I was 22 years old at the time, and well.. I guess I felt like I had arrived because they always say as soon as you act like that… God throws you a fat curve ball… BoooOOoo.. haha
But nothing is sweeter then success-
What do you think I did next? I would love to take your guess, but I am going to tell you right now!
One morning in 2009, I woke up, and the idea was already there. I rolled my butt out of bed, and I sat down at my computer. I looked at the screen, and I said it out loud to myself…
“People all over the world are making money online, and not just a little bit either.. they are getting rich, and wealthy, and if they can wake up every single day and get rich, and get wealthy online… well.. then I am going to do that too!”
Now, keep in mind that I woke up, rolled out of bed, looked at my computer screen, and said that out loud.. IN 2009! For a whole year after losing everything, I worked my butt off once again trying to earn a buck for myself. Trust me when I say this… Making your money work for you, is SOOOOO SO SO SO MUCH EASIER THEN WORKING FOR YOUR MONEY! haha That goes double for using your mind to think up good ideas! We call that working smart!
My Best “Moment” in business yet!
Today, as I am writing this article-post on one of my many many websites. I can honestly say that this is one of my moments. Would you like to know why?
Well, this is simple, right now is a very amazing moment because I have once again “arrived”.. Don’t worry, I am not scared to say that! I will say that out loud any day of the week now! The first time I said it and I lost everything was a real blessing. I just didn’t see it right away.. But now I do!
I found that answer! I figured it out for myself! I know what it is like to wake up in the morning and BE one of those people.. The people that sit down at there computer, and check their bank accounts, and watch the money pile in! I know what it is like to lose everything, and if you are in this situation right now, then I want you to know that there is an answer looking you RIGHT in the face! All you have to do is follow your thinking to a solution. If you do that, then it is very possible to wake up one day, sit down at YOUR computer, and see numbers:)!!! I call them comfort numbers because I know I will be ok when I see them, so they comfort me!
For those of you wondering what it is that I do, you can take a look at the ” The review junkies” tab on this website. I promise you right now I would never offer you something that is going to affect you in a negative way. I wouldn’t ever do that, I know what it is like to have that done to me, and I didn’t appreciate it at all one bit!
And for the record, after I sat down at my computer that FAITHFUL morning, it took me 4 months to earn my first $1,200 dollar month! If those numbers look good to you, or you need to make some passive income! Keep looking around this site, and you will get some great ideas!
I hope you enjoyed my little post!
