  BRIDGE TO SUCCESS

I AM AN INTENTIONAL BEING OF ACTION.

All it takes is a single choice made in a fragment of a second that can change a person's life direction for good. The decision has to be made first, only then stories will be told. Big Dreamers must decide how they are going to manifest their dreams. Only then, inspiration will find you and success will follow you. Affluence will be your crown and dream builders will be your network. Only then, your team will be loyal to you and wealth will be achieved. You will then become the creator of your destiny and the writer of your own story. Only if you can decide! Decide to take on the challenge and stare into the eyes of courage and say, "I will get on a new path towards my higher self and make my dream come true because I am a worthy human being who is only going to live once!"  All it takes is; courage, commitment, and a promise to yourself. A single promise to your dreams that you will never abandon it at any cost because you made a decision and promise to yourself once.


The brutal reality is, all dreams need a pre-requisite, a route, prior work, pre-building, and pre-planning in order to convert any dream into a successful reality. My story is about the route I took that promises a safe journey to my dreams. A route of entrepreneurship and personal development. A route towards financial freedom and personal independence. A route that will create multiple possibilities and choices in my life, and that's what we need. We need to create choices so we are not limited to only a few choices. We want abundance! Most dreams and ambitions are unfulfilled because the bridge to fulfillment is never visible or found properly. As a result, many dreams are abandoned, betrayed and man's unfulfilled potential becomes a means to his negative destiny. I luckily found my bridge to success. I am blessed with it, and I believe in it.


Once I found the bridge, I decided to get right on it, and soon after that, I realized that the only way I will become successful is when I help and encourage other people to become successful. I am a believer of a successful principal know as, "The Law of Compensation"-- in order to get, you must first give the very same thing to others that you desire for yourself. This is my ethical belief in success. With this in mind, I got on the road to success. You see, first and foremost, a person has to decide to do the pre-requisite work. That's what big dreams require, It's a process of getting there. In my case, it started with a decision-making process.  Only then, your dreams are guaranteed and they will not be denied and your life will flourish in front of your eyes.


You must have a burning desire within. You must be hungry to walk the inspirational path. If you are not hungry enough then success might not be close to you. You must seed your destiny with an intention to become a wealthy successful fearless individual first. First within, and then it will automatically manifest outside. Your decision and strong belief will pave the way. Make your intention loud and clear and then open up to receive. Just wait for the opportunity to strike you and once you collide into it then get on your opportunity vehicle which will take you straight to your dreams. Get onto the vehicle with an idea that along the journey towards your final destination; success, dreams or purpose-whatever you want to call it, you will also grow within and develop a charismatic character. Just to mention, you will also make a lot of money and become abundant along the way. You will be proud, for the rest of your life! I am pleased to share that I was able to get on that opportunity vehicle and I am glad I did!


In my case, was the same.  I made a decision to leave a mediocre life far behind in the rearview mirror. It was hard at the beginning but anything is hard when you first start it, even a new job that you first started, but I did decide with complete certainty that I am going to change my destiny myself. The decision had to be made for the opportunity that was proposed to me. I knew it was my ticket to success, a platform for growth, and connecting bridge to my dreams. The intention had to be set, to move into my higher self; who is free, prosperous, joyous, and full of wisdom and knowledge. I made a decision to help others once I got to know all the ins & outs, highs, and lows. I made a decision to dig and carve out the millionaire in me, the diamond in me that is capable of contributing to others. I did not know the "whens" and the "hows" but I had to make a choice because to conquer my dreams. Am I still traveling towards it? Yes! Am I going to make it safe? With hard work, good working ethics, and successful habits that I was able to duplicate from the best... 100% Yes! I did decide to enhance my higher self, didn't I? You can never go wrong with good intentions and pure sincere efforts. The power of intention is extraordinary and it certainly changed the entire course of my life. By making a decision, I simply moved ahead in life automatically because I took an actual real start and I was not wasting my time anymore. I have pulled the trigger. Once you have pulled the trigger you cannot go back! From this point on forwarding, one has to be consistent, persistent, driven, and self-motivated by constantly living the ideals they believe in. I made a decision to change my own life because no one else was going to do it for me. Others may come as a source to open closed doors but I would still have to enter the door on my own, grow into a new realm of my life on my own, and attain achievements on my own. The simple rule to success is; when you get invited on the dance floor, the invitation may be free, but you still have to perform the dance through your action to win the crowd. The way I look at free-will and predestination is as follows; 50% opportunity or a driving force and 50% your hard work and action to avail and complete the opportunity. That's a formula of 100% completion of success.


Luckily, I entered a new door of life because I was willing to give my 50% share of effort on a full 100% throttle. By making this decision, not only did I start the journey towards real success but I overcame my fear, negative state of mind, and mediocre generic life.  I got a real shot and I was able to take the default life that was happening to me by accident and turned it into the intentional responsible life that I chose to create for myself with conscious awareness. The secret "law of polarity" says, if you don't take your life and give it a direction intentionally, it will automatically go towards another direction and create your default accidental reality and future-which, in my opinion, is a dangerous thing to live by. I realized that having uncertainty about the future was not my cup of tea. Nothing was going to help me but my single radical choice to create my intentional future! I wanted to give my family the best. What got me to this decision is a greater question to ask.


WHAT LED ME TO IT


For a long time, I was aware that the social and financial system had some serious dysfunctionality. The education system in my view is a total failure. They only train people with information and knowledge to become an employee for the rich or become a special fancy service provider for the rich. They never taught us the real education that may attain financial freedom for us. I learned that we all have it wrong.... here is why!. I believe, the root cause of all evil is not money, as we are told from early on. I learned that the root cause behind all evil is rather from the lack of money. I learned that the majority of divorce rate/marriage breakups in society are due to financial issues, main cause behind depression and emotional abandonment is due to financial instability, we have sold all our time to gain few hundred bucks to be poor next week again, higher crimes are due to poverty, kids are growing crooked because dad is always working for the money because families have lack of it, social barriers between classes of people are due to higher poverty rate, higher suicidal rates are due to the poor state of mind caused by poverty. I can just go on and on with my findings but that's not the point. The point to be taken is that financial education and mentoring should be a general practice of the masses because it literally affects our social system, our families, and our single self of individuality as a whole. 


In my opinion, there should be a law to have certain financial education criteria licensed to people, to develop the minds of people about what money actually is.  Mentally, people should be fully developed with the understanding of money and what it actually represents as a figure. I must emphasize that the mind must first increase its own value and be changed in order to create a new set of beliefs about money. Our education system must make this a mandatory need. Otherwise, the government should simply illegalize the usage of money. What is the point of throwing an individual into the water without teaching him how to swim? He is going to drown and die. Then why does the government not give us access to the real secret behind financial freedom yet still make money as a mandatory medium of exchange? To me, that sounds as if we are forced to be a part of a modern well thought slavery system.


So, I figured out the bondage and made a decision to get unplugged from this system. I was not going to have my time being stolen away from me anymore. The very time I can use to create my own destiny. This realization led me to start learning more and more each day. I started to look for clues and secrets to figure out the way to get out of the modern slavery system. I learned that success and financial freedom is a rare area of knowledge which has a concept, a business model, a particular mindset which requires strategy. I learned that it has an entire science behind it. Not only that but also very few have access to this knowledge of success.  On top of that, the secret ladder to success has also been camouflage so those who even dare to get close to a start off point ends up making a U-turn back to the slavery system because of prior brainwashing and mental false conditioning. Unfortunately, we are not taught how to play this game.


Everyone is trying to figure out something, either consciously or sub-consciously.. All the YouTubers looking at inspirational and motivational videos looking for clues, young dream builders working at franchise getting paid minimum income, educated book readers with comfy jobs, and secret seekers, they all are subconsciously trying to figure out the very same thing as I once did. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON! SOMETHING IS UP AND MY INTUITION CAN SMELL IT! I finally learned the truth. The brutal truth to be told- which may aggravate many, we are born into the bondage! A modern slavery system beautifully covered with the illusion of freedom yet nothing it is that we fully own. The beautiful illusion which entails and promises cars with the money we don't have, mortgaging the homes to the government which we don't really own, while working for the high-tax businesses. It was all clear to me. However, people who are searching still cannot figure out the splinter in their head which indicates that something is wrong! This news might have aggravated you as it did to me, but I had the courage to overcome it by asking myself the question, OKAY WHAT NOW? The answer came... LEARN ASSET BUILDING GAME!


I went to school and college but there never was any true mentoring system that equipped me with the mindset and the skill-set that is required to function in the real world to make it comfortably, financially. I was thrown into the world to work for an incompetent boss who did not know the difference between a PDF file and a JPEG file. I literally worked for a "C" grade student while I possessed the abilities of an "A" grade student yet, due to lack of financial education I managed to sell all my time for money. I also learned that either there were people with a lot of time and no money or there are those with a lot of money but they have no time to enjoy the other side of money. They complained including my boss that they have a lot of money but no time to enjoy life with their kids who grew up too fast and now off to college and due to lack of time they cannot have their kids company anymore, and then there are those with the opposite situation. The result was the same for both classes of people. They are limited with their resources such as, either with time or limited on money, therefore, fully unable to control their life. They are enslaved and fully controlled by the system. One thing was clear to me, being rich was not enough because you could have all the money in the bank and still be so caught up with business and restricted by the time that they could never get to enjoy the freedom of life.


Then, I started searching for a way where one can be wealthy and free without bounded by time at the same time. I learned that people who are rich and free are known as entrepreneurs. They are very different from a businessman-like mentality. I found out that there are very few who secretly enjoy their freedom with the money they get residually from their assets. They are broad-minded people. I was interested to learn from this 5% of the population. They are known as entrepreneurs in this era. They have multiple streams of income, they are asset building mindset of people and they believe in-laws and principal of success more than the business model and fixed numbers and revenue. They don't possess the typical mindset. This minority of group goes after long-term success. Those people have inflation-proof and recession-proof jackets on because they are outcome-focused. They are free-thinkers and they enjoy the most riches of life. I was interested in this kind of mindset because they are the people who have figured out the very same thing I was trying to get to.. financial freedom!


No one taught us the secret art of building assets or establishing residual royalty income so the balance between the two-time and money- can be achieved. They never gave us the asset-building wealthy mindset that only the rich possess.  I am glad I didn't waste my time trying to figure out my life through college even though I did go to one. I was thirsty for a real education, for real-world class business and financial education that is based on the supreme mindset and asset building mentality. I wanted to learn the secret! This type of mindset has a whole different dimension and a process of thinking. Believe it or not, true success has science behind it, an art behind it, it's an entirely new different kind of game. They will not teach this in MBA either. I have known people with an MBA degree with a fancy sticker on their cars yelling "Proud MBA Student of ABC or whatever University" they went to and I have also sat down and evaluated their mindset. It's nothing like the entrepreneur mindset. It's all employee-based, inside a box kind of mindset or self-employed based thinking. There is another world out there that people aren't aware of because it has been kept away from us.


Asset building is an entirely different game on its own but they never teach how to play this game. I wanted a mindset not baggage of information to be loaded into me. They would never equipt us with a proper mindset in MBA school. Who has money to afford fancy degrees anyway? To become a fancy employee or a fancy businessman with a poor mindset? Not me! No one will give you a secret behind achieving real wealth. I had to figure it all out through many messy experiences and greater life lessons. Once I figured it all out, I made a choice. I dared to get on board and master it all. My journey still continues as we speak.


Soon after learning the truth about the social system I was enslaved by, I started to look at more things.  I had figured out the box of misery I was forced to live under. I started looking at my life and realized that I too was a victim of the environment. I wanted to get out of bondage so bad!  I knew our education system and financial system was designed to keep us under the box below our true potential. I did not agree with a limited life, insufficient resources. social security retirements or 401ks. or a 3% annual raise. I rejected to spend quality time with people that chose to agree with the concept of "trading time with money" which is really just another word for slavery. I knew there were two ways to become a slave; either work for someone else and become their employed slave for few bucks to survive or become your own slave with the kool title of a small business firm and chase customers and clients all day long just to get bombarded with high government taxes. I did not want to have anything to do with that so I started changing my life.


I started seeking. I did not know how it was going to happen and when it was going to happen but I started my blind faith for the door of opportunity to open up so I can escape the hamster wheel. I had the faith and the will. I knew there had to be something that is rare and only given to those who are looking to change their life. I knew everyone was doing something different which led to over 12 million birth to self-made millionaires in the United States. I wanted to do that very same "something different" whatever that was! Out of those 12 million millionaires who exist today, the big percentage has retired at an early age with residual income cash flow for the rest of their life. What is it so different that they are doing and I am not, I asked! The same God who made them also created me so why can't I do it? Now that I realize, the door of opportunity I was seeking was really just a reflection and manifestation of a liberated state of mind I was living under-wanting to excel in life, looking to a breakthrough. These people had developed that special mindset-with, of course, many other skills such as; communication and leadership skills. I wanted to learn all of that. That's what my mind was going through at the moment, towards a big shift, towards my higher self. I was looking for a way out to develop the hidden leader in me. I was not looking for a get rich quick scheme, or a hitting a lottery ticket or looking to file a big buck lawsuit against someone. I was looking for my potential to be challenged so I can make something out of myself that is internal and permanent from its core. Now, the only question was, how can I fit this agenda-to escape the illusion-into my current busy life. How can I put this into action to get out of the mess!. To unravel the answer to this question was very challenging but possible.


FIRST PLAN OF ACTION.


I was willing to start somewhere during the time of the window I would get after work so I can escape and create my new future between this time of the window. I did not want to quit my job as it was paying my bills and until I can build a residual income cash flow that exceeds the income I was earning from my current job, I had to stick with my job. I had to strategize wisely and cautiously to make the switch. But I had to start somewhere in order to get there. This time window was the only hope I had. From 6 pm in the evening to the time I would go to sleep, and sometime that would be 3 at night. That was the only time window I had where I can build my future. That was the only window of hours I had where I could independently figure out how to escape my current reality. I wanted to build my life so I can eventually quit my job by replacing or exceeding the income I was going to build.


That is all I had figured out so far. I had the will to do that. At this point, I did not know the "how", and "what" or anything for that matter, but, I was wide open to receive any sign or opportunity I could get to get started towards building myself after work. I only knew the "when".  What needed to be done during this time was next. This plan of action required serious discipline. This meant no more bad habit of useless fun. No more Netflix! When you make this bold choice, at this point, automatically, all your relationships are now on a test with you. They would either support you and give you understanding and honor your decision you made for the pursuit of freedom or they would become selfish and pull you down. At this point, you would have to let go of the whole bunch of people out of your life. You can no longer create any room for negative, time-consuming downers that we're never satisfied with you in the first place. Your entire life frequency is changing and you must carry on. It gets hard and painful but the risk is worth a shot for your goals. You must save yourself before saving the entire world.  You could not afford to let anyone steal your time, dream, and energy away. You must use every ounce of your efforts for your future and final destination. Only then you can come back to save the rest. I really had no choice. I really had to move into my new self towards personal growth and financial freedom. The path towards success is a lonely route but it does get better after a while.


WHY?


I was fed up with common life, I started seeking freedom during those hours, I was seeking security, I was seeking extra time to myself. I was fed up with dead-end 10 to 6. I was frustrated with the routine. I was burdened by my small business(Designing Branding Consulting Firm).. I was not happy with trading my time for money when I had so much value to offer. I wanted to enjoy the life that is meant to rejoice with your family, friends, and God created natural beauty on earth. I wanted to travel the world, I wanted to practice spirituality and enjoy mystical experiences and undergo divine interventions and get to know myself. I wanted to enjoy personal harmony and deep satisfaction. I wanted to give charity to well-deserving people. I wanted to be an author and write a series of books so my information and knowledge can ease up and create a difference in many lives. I wanted to elevate the minds of many therefore I wanted to be an author of my ideologies. I had abandoned projects which I wanted to restart and publish. I wanted to do so much with life to create a positive impact on the world, then how could I have quit on myself?  I needed a lot of money in order to do all those things.  I needed something better and bigger than my job or career. I wanted to make a global impact. I wanted real wealth and the valuable time on my hands. I wanted to figure out how I can stop working for the time and somehow make the time work for me so I can enjoy the common riches of life without giving away so much time.


My dreams required money and time which was going towards my mediocre life. I was stuck with commitments to my boss and stuck behind the office cubical space making someone else rich each day working like a mule and being told I am not good enough. I knew there had to be a way out because I had the will to get out. It was not about what I was getting paid anymore but what I was becoming internally. I didn't like the picture of it at all. Who wants to be a grouchy, frustrated, unheard, misunderstood, bullied, powerless, emotional baggage anyway? Certainly not me but I was getting there. Finally, I started to ask the creator who created the Universe and all things within. I started with the urge, a deep yearning each day for new doors to open so I can get on the path that will set me free from life drama of mediocrity to superiority. I wanted to get out of the rut. Why did I call it a rut?.. because when you don't go to work for someone else, you don't get paid for that day after you have used your paid sick days. However, you still get bills that need to be paid. When you stop working the cash flow stop and then you are on a journey called stress and powerlessness. To make it worst, your expenses are adding up yet you only get 3% raised after a long period of time at your company, therefore, the financial growth is very slow. One day your boss is having a good day and the next day you can be fired. The future is very unpredictable. I had serious concerns. It really is a rut. You literally have to run on the hamster wheel each day so you can pay your bills. If you fall off the wheel, you fall behind with your bills and begin the bill disaster for the next few months. Guess what? the disaster due to a few days off puts you back on a hamster wheel to chase more money again, and there goes the vicious cycle of the hamster wheel. These are the unsecured riches you get for trading time for money when you decide to become someone else's employee. When you stop working, money stopped coming. I didn't agree with this type of lifestyle. Do you?


So what did I do? In my sneaky times, either during lunch break or after work I started listening to entrepreneurial speeches and lectures to be inspired and motivated to seek more. I started listening to mentors, started reading self-help and self-motivating articles and books with the hope that someday I will crack the code towards another life that only the wealthy get to enjoy. All I needed was a start somewhere, a direction, or a bridge to the highway that leads straight to success. I was looking for a life that only a few have access to because they dared to change their state of being one day. Finally, one day..my yearning was answered and something opened up for me.. That is when it all started! My new journey, my new beginning to a new life. Thank god!


A BRAND NEW OPPORTUNITY


One day, I was shopping at Wegman's grocery store in New Jersey and that is where my journey towards a new path started when this gentleman collided into me with a new opportunity. This business concept literally changed my life. I met a gentleman in his 40's who evaluated my mindset and very closely observed me. I was asked a series of questions during the conversation I had with him for 5 minutes. I had no idea who he was and what he does. I only saw a person in a suit who happened to be shopping at the same store as me, and the next thing I know is that we are talking. After a few minutes of chit-chat, we exchanged phone numbers and that was it. It felt like he had something for me that I needed to receive from him. I started talking to him over the phone. I had to gain his respect and build trust and develop a connection. Once I proved him that I was not going to waste his time and showed my thirst to learn all the ins & out of the game, that's when he decided to teach me how to play asset building game so I don't have to sacrifice my entire life for a paycheck. Now, I got into a real-life mentorship.


This person had access to many real entrepreneurs and gurus who had built themselves from the scratch. He was part of their network. I am talking about nice & happy, positive rich people who did not mind sharing their stories. They did not mind teaching real secrets to success. These people were not greedy and snotty but rather enthusiastic and healthy driven people who really enjoy motivating you. Now, I am part of their network system. They are not a mediocre businessman. Entrepreneurs are something else. That's who they were. They were real self-made entrepreneurs. There is a business concept I was taught. While being in the circle of people who were chasing dreams, a business opportunity was offered to me. You can call it a business concept but it was really just a simple way of life converted into an enterprise or a business to function independently. A gentleman I had met had introduced this business idea to me. 


Prior to this incident, I was already seeking entrepreneurial skills and needed a fresh startup prior to this business opportunity which I was able to avail. Thankfully, I didn't let it go to waste and nailed this opportunity! The opportunity that was proposed to me by my mentor-the same gentleman whom I had met at the store-was something rare and unheard of. It was one of those things where it's too good to be true, so most people would let it pass because their mindset just isn't there yet so they mix it with scam when its really just their skeptical negative mind that is comfortable with where they are in life and have no desire to grow. It was a very rare, legit, and unheard concept to me. So I got curious and decided to sit down with him at the coffee shop to talk more about it.  I used to think that you are alone in everything when you start something new or for the first time. Especially, in a new career or business, and the only support you will ever get without any exchange in return is from your wife. I was wrong!


I didn't know anything about mentorship, free training, and a large group of a support system who is willing to give you books to read that will change your life because they want you to be successful as an independent business owner. I used to think that mentorship was only available to the rich. I was wrong! I must tell you, there are some really nice people out there. The key is to actually be out there to even realize that such a dimension even exists. You really have to meet people and have conversations with strangers and be able to connect with them. In order to be out there, one must make a decision first. I knew I wasn't here on planet earth to watch TV all day, or work all day long, or sleep around in the house. Not if I wanted to make a difference and create something out of myself to change the world on my level.


I was exhausted with life to this very point of meeting him. I had tried everything. I met him a couple of times and then I said okay give me a start. He said: not so fast! If I am going to invest my time and energy into you, I better get to know you first. I would first have to know if you have what it takes. I have to see if you are sincere and if you have the will to do it. He wanted to know why I would want to get into this new opportunity? So, of course, I was evaluated first, my mindset, my goals, my mission, and my lifestyle pattern. Everything was observed, my sincerity level was heavily tested. I had to build a case for myself and why I wanted to do this and what I was going to bring to the table.


I had to build my relationship with him and his other business partners for weeks and then I said train me and tell me everything you know. Prior to training and learning all the ins and out, I first had to read a few books. It was just a process of reading multiple books so that I can decompile my old set of belief system about money and overall let reading change my thinking and renew my mind with the liberation of financial wealth and freedom so that I can move away from the mind that was based on poverty and scarcity, I needed to rewire myself for the new life. I had a lot of mental cleaning up to do. All the bad conditioning that entered me during my childhood had to come back out so I can create some room for a successful mindset. This process took about a month or 2. It replaced my old thinking, not entirely but just enough for me to get started with the new process of thinking. Cleaning out the old negative conditioned mind is a years-long of work but I had at least started with new knowledge and I was willing to clean out my brain.


 I was also asked to meet a couple of wealth-building mentality of people so I can observe how they talk and how they think. So, I went to business conventions, seminars, and board plan meetings. I heard inspirational stories and given out-of-this-world talks! There I met people from all walks of life with a similar dream to mine. Their version of dreams was different in color but the same in essence as mine. We all connected on a collective level. I exchanged ideas, I talked about all the good things that I could only think secretly in my mind due to fear of being judged by others for having a rare thinking process about life in general. I was actually able to be myself around thee people. I loved it!


During this phase I enjoyed myself talking to fun enthusiastic people and listening to their stories. It was really just a way to help me trust the opportunity and getting to know the people before getting into it. I wanted to know if I could handle what I was getting into. No commitment was needed at this time unless I decided to move on with the steps towards success. I was always invited as a guest not as a business owner even though most events were among the networks of real business owners. Although I was desperate to become a network member of the platform, I still wanted to take my time to evaluate the opportunity.


Anyhow, It took 2 weeks to decide after reading books, listening to a few talks and meeting people. After a few meet and greets with various people and sponsors I was fired up. I couldn't find any hidden strings attached to it. I was evaluating If I could really pull this off after the process of meeting people and reading a few books. The decision was mine to make not theirs. They all had already made their decision in the past and now they were getting up the ladder towards success.  I was already fed up with my life, my old car, my bills, bank account balance, and loans. I wanted to get on the ladder with them. I had to become bigger than my needs. It didn't matter to me, whatever it took, I was willing to give it a shot. The worst I could expect is a failure and I was okay with that. At least I could not get to complain in the future that I never got the opportunity or I once got the opportunity but I missed it! I was willing to put my work into it. I was already attracting this lifestyle prior to this offer anyway. Then how could I let it just go by that easily?


I had to make a choice. I was not able to provide my family with enough time. I wasn't able to give time to my parents. I was either busy providing services to a company in New Jersey while working as an employee under an independent contract which wasn't going to build an asset for me or I was mostly busy being exhausted and lazy on the couch watching TV looking for strength to get up and make a difference.  I was fed up with pay check-to-pay check income. I was tired of my business. I was running this business on the side with my full-time job (design and marketing firm). It was consuming too much time out of my life. I wanted something short and simple with stability and scalability to grow over the years with a support system that will secure my future in the long run. I did not mind working hard for it as long as I knew I was creating a win-win situation for myself to eventually become financially free. All I had to do was build my pipeline of success. I already have the access to the platform.


After my evaluation process, I moved on and opted into the opportunity board plan meeting that I was asked to join by my mentor. I had to be patient but I had trust in the mentor and myself so I moved with the process gradually but I was very cautious and mindful of what I was getting into. It was darn easy once I got to know it. But, I took my sweet time to get used to it. Once I got used to the new idea of 21st-century business and entrepreneurship starter kit in a form of this networking platform, I was a rocket!


Finally, I said what the heck., let's see where this takes me. So, I gave it a shot with complete surrender to positivity and surrender to the platform of people I was being connected to. I was not going places with everything I had tried anyway, right? I was a victim of my environment for a long time and I hated every bit of it. I knew Small Business is mostly doomed to fail after 5 years. I had no support whatsoever. I knew I wasn't going to make it too far before I fell, therefore, I needed to plan for the worst. Especially with the high government tax rates to bring down small businesses under 500 employees, I was anxious. Finally, I decided to sign up and I decided to get launched into this new opportunity that was offered to me.


Prior to all of this, I had read a book titled "Business of the 21st Century" by Robert Kiyosaki. The famous author of Rich Dad Poor Dad who is now a billionaire, known as a financial guru. Every word from the book "Business of the 21st Century" was now on my lap ready to be lived in real life! I only had to be mad enough to pass this opportunity. From all the speeches and lectures I had heard over the years from Bob Proctor, Jim Ron, Napoleon Hill, Earl Nigndale, or more current entrepreneurs such as; Lez Brown, Robert Kiyosaki, Dan Pina, Tony Robins, and Grand Cardone. I only got one message; find yourself a platform where you can be supported and mentored by successful like-minded people so you can get a head start somewhere. Now, here I was sitting with a real chance sitting on my lap. Possibly, my one and only chance to get on board with successful like-minded enthusiastic people where I can make connections and learn all the ins and outs and start my entrepreneurial journey towards real success. So guess what?. I made a decision and I got on board!


STARTER CHECKLIST


Fast Rewind: By the way, prior to getting launched, I had made a list of things that I wanted to start off in the future. This list was created with the help of all the lectures, speeches, and books I had read prior to this opportunity. In my independent studies, I noticed that they all were saying one thing; learn asset building game so passive income can be generated, multiple sources of income can be established. They also taught how and where a rookie can start towards the journey of success. So I said let's see how much I can check off my list before getting into this new opportunity.


Before I created the checklist though, few obvious things were important to me. For example, the business had to be real, it had to be honest, and most definitely, it has to be legal with scalability to grow. The business had to be governed by the real universal laws and principal of success and not through the rules of textbooks from college. A business must be built without risking a current job and security but has the potential and capability to eventually replace my job. I then started going through the list one by one.


The first thing I was looking for was smart people. I wanted to surround myself with like-minded, happy successful smart people with goals and dreams.. Check! Was I looking for a platform to grow? Of course, I was.. Check! I was looking to meet people from all types of industries with a special mindset. Check! I wanted an asset-building platform.. check! I quickly went through my list and it was all positive (I had a long list though). Here is a big one, I was also looking for someone who can teach me how to build my pipeline of wealth so I can get this pipeline to release royalty income to my bank account even when I was asleep and for the rest of my life... was this the last list item on my checklist? Not yet but a Checkmark to this one as well! Here is what blew my mind. This was the last item on my list. Ready? I wanted to be a business owner where I didn't have to put so much money down to start off.. maybe with a couple of hundred bucks to start a new business with a low operating cost on a monthly basis like my Verizon or electric bill. This item on my checklist was marked off with a big checkmark next to it. Checked.. YES! I became a business owner. A fresh new IBO, a product distributor who now has a platform to build a business and network of people through a process called duplication. The last asset-building idea I was told was real estate but who has this kind of money to start off with? I wanted to the same thing without putting down any money.


BUSINESS CONCEPT:


Duplication? The exciting thing is you can get involved in the process called duplication and duplicate yourself as many times as want and reap the benefit from it. It's a business concept that says, help somebody succeed and you benefit from it. You give them your time and knowledge and get them to a place where you are and once they are there, they have to do the same to someone else who is hungry for financial freedom. it's a people helping people type of business! What a wonderful ethical way of making money. The more people you help to succeed, the greater your reward is! I learned this from the great entrepreneur who made millions through this concept. His name is Dave Severn. What a wonderful idea with values!


During the process of becoming successful, you also get free mentorship. Its the best ethical business one can get involved in.  Isn't it what the "law of compensation" is based on? It says you gotta give in order to get. It's the third principle of success. You get back in life what you give out--the "law of compensation". Number two: The key is to give the best of you to others in this business. You give out the junk you get junk back and if you give out the best to people, in the best of manner, and effort, you get the more back in return. Its called the "law of increasing returns". Number three you get back what you give out but after you give out. Its called the "law of late gratification". Three very vital laws of success were the founding principal of this business.


I already knew these laws and I knew I can never go wrong with this. These laws of success were not taught to me in school. I learned them through hunger. I was hungry to live longer, be happier, and be wealthy so I can give others the same riches of life. This philosophy is soul-satisfying because you get to collect good deeds and get rich during the process. This is what entrepreneurs are all about. I only had to be foolish enough to let this opportunity pass by. So I got in.


Wow! That was my reaction! A new dimension of endless possibility literally opened up to me. I instantly discovered the secret realm of the community of people who are not only the nicest people who only dressed well but they shared the same dream as mine and worked together under the same laws of success I mentioned above. I instantly got access to millionaires, to aspiring millionaires with deep inspirational stories. They believed in me more than myself. Thousands of people who got started just like me and those who are chasing financial freedom were now part of my network system. There I met people with dreams, goals in life, and stories that are heart touching. I found a support system, an entire community of people that got launched into this platform where anyone with a dream is welcome. The first thing I did was, I ran to Macy's and got myself some really nice business suits because my life was going to get real fancy and I was becoming someone else. My higher-self, that is!


I got on board with this opportunity with a mindset of an American dreamer, all ready to take complete advantage of a true and the only free enterprise, known to planet earth called the United States Of America. I was ready to be part of the 5% of the people who thought differently about everything in life. I was ready to latch on to the ones that made it big, and until I did not learn everything I needed to, I was not going to let go of them. I was ready to embrace a new lifestyle, new mindset, and willingness to learn and develop the new skillset and become the master of communication skills. This was my platform to learn the dance so I can go places down the road. I found my direction, I got a head start which counted as "action" rather than just reading books and watching youtube inspirational and motivational videos. I was now ready to act, perform, and learn from real people in the business. I got on and so it began. Now, I continue to learn and grow each day and work hard to build my pipeline of financial freedom. Its a work of patience and effort, just like the same hard work and patient it took to build the tallest building in the United States. Once it was built, became The Empire State!



MY MISSION!


Today I am part of the association. I fit newcomers into my network of a group that is working under successful guidelines that work. I teach people how to duplicate themselves into many other human beings. I have access to premium products and own quality distributions. I uplift and settle new entrepreneurs as I still learn myself. I am building my business and my future so I can reach my dreams. I am proud to be part of the network marketing family and building the asset of wealth with people each day so I can enjoy the wealthy and healthy life in the future, that I know for certain that I will. It's only a matter of time and work of patience and effort. The compound effect will trigger. 


Today I am in the business of launching valuable people who are looking so I can get them on board. I am on a mission to only select those who want to utilize their potential. I want to give them a rich experience that I got. When I do spot a special person, I offer them a business vehicle that will get them to a real deal. I try to help as much as I can but I refuse to help negative people who are procrastinators and lazy with no ambition in life. They chose to be in the 96% of the poor people in America, therefore, I cannot make their decision.


I am still on my journey towards success and I am not an overnight success story but I did get a head start and in order to get there. It takes effort and some level of belief to make as far as I did and that's some level of success on its own. Today, I am still busy just as much as my past, maybe more. I am not able to do anything fun but I was able to shift my effort from "miss-use of efforts" to "self-invested effort" practice. After a few years of hard work from today, I will be free. I will have my business built from ground zero. I will be able to say, I did this because I had a dream! I will become a success story. A powerful writer and a teacher of many. As of now, I must work hard and conquer myself.


A very wise man once said, "if you are willing to work hard now then you will have an easier life later and if you work easily today then you will have a harder life later." That resonated with me and that is my motto of life. I work hard each and every day with a mission to have an easier life later. I work hard for myself. I am in the business for myself and I teach others how to do the same. In the coming years after reaching my goals and targets, I can stop if I want, and the passive, residual, or royalty income will still flow into my life and that is what I always wanted. Money and freedom together, that is! I am a believer in cash flow and asset building and I have learned all about it. Now its time to apply. I like the idea of hard work as long as it is invested in yourself and not into building someone else their asset. I could not have built this future for myself as an employee or small business owner mindset. I also encourage you to build your own dream otherwise you will always be helping someone else building their dream and soon enough you will be out of the picture once they have accomplished their dreams at your cost and hard work. It's your wake up call.


What you have a chance to do is a challenge. It's not for everyone. But it is better than anything else one can ever dare to pursue. People should give it a shot because people don't know their unleashed potential. It requires a lot of hard work, a lot of consistency but with a team of support and my back up, anything is possible.


Today, as my job I love to distract people from their default life that is playing to them and I provoke them to think about their future outside the box and give them a chance to get out of mediocrity by introducing new innovative ways and ideas of becoming financially independent and free. I only approach those who show me signs of the special trait. I only select the thirsty ones. I choose to see value in people rather than selling them value for the money. When I do see value in someone, I offer them an idea and leave them with it. If they come back, they were meant to be someone special. If not, then they have screwed up.


Today, it is my contribution to offer the same opportunity that I got to ideal dreamers worldwide.  It is to those who have hope and big dreams but doesn't have enough money and career path or direction. What they have is a desire, a burning fire to drive them to success. That is all it is needed! I want to show them the path towards possibilities and endless opportunities. I want to mentor those who are looking. Those who will not waste my time. We all deserve a second chance, better yet, we all deserve the first chance that many may never get in their entire life.


I humbly welcome dreamers to my team who understand what it takes to attain financial freedom. Those who understand that the only thing between ordinary people and extraordinary people is their positive decision. The success is only on the other side of the decision. Success is only a choice away from success. 


I am not a music director who launches talented singers but I am proud to be in the business of launching new entrepreneurs who are no less than a singer who can sing wealthy songs in any hard phase of life. I launch entrepreneurs and I give them a free platform to learn the dance. I want to get as many ideal dreamers as possible and change their lives because I believe in the laws and principal of success, therefore, law compensation is my endeavor!

THIS IS MY STORY. NOW YOU ALSO HAVE THE CHANCE TO SHARE YOUR EXPERIENCE WITH THE WORLD!
