Still failing to see a problem...

Yeah I am going to rate that excuse a 1/10... it was a nice try but not really...


lol

I like your dogged determination.

The problem is logistics.

I really don't want to be homeless in the streets of Phoenix ;)

I know some of the streets in Scottsdale are pretty nice, but still...

You might be mildly impressed if you knew the things I actually tried …what I thought I had lined up to keep me afloat for while once I got there.…fell through. I came up with some pretty creative ideas.

Hey, there is still a few days left...



Edit: Forgot to mention a slightly important point:* I don't have a ticket to the Summit. Wouldn't matter at this point even if I did make it there.o_O

Google flights.

I found a round trip for $170 from RSW. It was kind of a pain in the a$$ and it was spirit air but everyone has $170.

I ended up paying an extra $100 so I could get on a United flight and get my miles and sit in the lounge and work on my layover but c'mon y'all.

Do we get what we want out of life or do we get what we're committed to?

I mean... @GlobalWealth and I already have @LightHouse as the meat in our sandwich... and by that I mean we all sleep in the same bed. But you may be able to replace one of those guys.

Otherwise look at the room sharing thread, I'm sure there's plenty of people willing to share and/or work out a deal.

Hell most of us parachute in, anyways :p

LOL......:hilarious:

Awwww, that's ....heartwarming? It would warm something I'm sure. I feel honored. Truly.

I never thought of a parachute. Hmmmm

The thing is... I can get my butt there.

I just can't get my butt back home. ha

In other words, it would be a one-way trip.

Which is fine with me, really.



For the record, I was actually willing to do that (leave everything and go one way) just so I could attend the Summit.

I figured if I'm going to go that far, I might as well stay :)

Radical, I know.

Scottsdale is more than a place to go to. It's the very place that is responsible for changing your entire life! </hyped up marketing jargon>

I did what you thought about doing....twice.

I drove that one way from North Carolina to Scottsdale (because I couldn't afford to go back).

Actually, after doing that twice, I later learned that it was really that I couldn't afford NOT to go. If I choose to stay the same and didn't become that change I was waiting for in my life....my life would probably still be the same as it was for the last 4 years....think about it.

The first time, I went with $250 to my name and nowhere to live. Then after I got there, I found a way to make it work. The second time, I slept in my car next to a hotel dumpster the first night being there (it might have been a nap for 30 minutes... but the first way of saying just sounds more powerful)....but either way, the second time - I couldn't afford to go back either. But by the second time I did it, I didn't ever want to go back.

In the end, it's not Scottsdale that will change you - it will be yourself.

I'm not saying to go to Scottsdale on a whim like I did... I'm simply saying...I'm confident you can find a way to make it work in the next few days.

Something tells me that I'm going to learn a ton and I won't be able to remember any of it

Will there be any real coffee in attendance?

Yes, there will be regular coffee -Peet's is a part of our breakfasts we provide attendees. And I'm pretty sure there's a Starbucks on site... but I need to confirm that.

This time last year, we made our second trip to the US - primarily for the Meetup. Would've made it this year too if it wasn't for some setbacks :(

For the newbies - network, network, network! You're going to meet some awesome & amazing people - allow yourself to let go of your ego & introduce yourself to people that you might even normally speak to, you just never know who that person could be.

A reminder for after the meetup - follow up with action. Keep up the momentum from the high of the meetup & get your plans into motion to make the next 11 months the best ones yet.

When I said that I'd be at the Summit come hell or high water, I really didn't mean to invoke the wrath of the gods o___O

There has been so much fighting and wheeling and dealing with my day job (see: :banghead:) trying to make sure that I'd be able to get to the Summit, I just can't even... but I'm going to make it just by the skin of my teeth! There was just no way I was going to let this opportunity pass me by.

The moral of the story? I'm not in control of my life... yet. These last few months have made that abundantly clear. But that's going to change and I am so excited to learn.

I can't wait to meet all of you next week! Safe travels!

As IF things weren't cool enough already, the Tubes are performing at the casino on Saturday night.

Who are the Tubes, you ask?

@Red

Here's my backstage rider per your request :

Vigilante requests a barber’s chair, L’Occitane soap, a bottle of Neutrogena dandruff shampoo, Neutrogena face scrub, Nivea Intensive Moisturizing Lotion and shower shoes. For food and beverages a tub of plain yogurt for dipping, four Yoplait yogurts, one bowl of assorted nuts, one bowl of Sunkist salted pistachios (no red coloring), two packs of Extra chewing gum, one bottle of hot sauce (Tabasco, Caribbean Type), a box of toothpicks, one 750 ml bottle of Hennessey Liquor, one 750 ml bottle of SKY or Absolut Vodka, one bottle of Patron Silver Tequila and four 6-packs of Heineken. 4 sugar free Rockstars, either regular or fruit punch. That's all!

But I'd settle for one lukewarm bottle of water.
