<div class="bbWrapper">well its been quite some time, with no speak able results. staring at my computer for hours on end trying to sell the things i have, uploading a billion pics on my pages and the works, simple basic work.<br />
<br />
after a while it gets discouraging a bit but you always need to stick through it, the biggest problem ive been having is enduring my job, i literally am a slave for $ and sold off my soul, on the positive side i am going in the right direction, to quote earl nightingale, '' success is the progression of a worthy ideal '' <br />
<br />
why am i working? to feed myself & save cash for investment capital. i always keep this in mind to fight away the misery slaving away.. ive altered my pricing and made some small adjustments in the listing again and again....<br />
<br />
ive been receiving a flood of messages after another price drop and started going back and forth with a potential customer, having conflicting schedules as i work 8-4, mon - friday and the prospect works nights finishing at 1am i wasnt sure if this would even work out.<br />
<br />
we arranged a meeting spot ironically by the dealerships i walk by basically every day, its a thing i constructed myself to remind me of what a broke bum i am that i cannot afford one of these cars, let alone a tyre change. so as a painful reminder i go by and lust over my desired collection of toys (ferrari & lamborghini of vancouver) <br />
<br />
meeting a potential customer at 1:30am was funny enough, and now here i am walking by my babies for the millionth time...<br />
to my relief i saw a car parked in a deserted gas station and i walked across the road to introduce myself. they actually showed up, hmm.. after a quick handshake with the items in the picture below i did it. i made a F*cking sale. F*ck. as you chuckle at an insignificant thing, it means a lot to me. i thought of something to sell, put it online and did a money...*sigh mj* value voucher.... handshake. what is 40 doll......sorry MJ, value vouchers, 40 value vouchers? i get paid around 13 an hour, so the 40 would represent not a value of money, but almost <b><u><i>4 hours of my life</i></u></b>. pretty pathetic right? <br />
<br />
so, i bought the car in the picture.....just kidding! its a start, as i said i think im heading in the right direction. if i can do 40, why not 400, 4000, 4 million? if theres anything you can take from this. it is as simple as getting started now. everyone on the forum always says, take action NOW! its that simple. why on earth did i not do this months ago? i had a different mindset. anyways sorry for the verbal diarrhea again.. maybe one day i can reread this thread and have a key instead of two peices of paper.<br />
<br />
in the current times i am still focusing on just slaving away at my job, luckily the weather has been amazing in vancouver and will be for the rest of the week, was set on leaving after halloween but may delay to mid november (work another couple of weeks and made around an extra 700-900 bucks.<br />
<br />
the use of my money will be for sourcing products to import and the whole sha bang of ecommerce, also feeding myself. that seems important just a bit. recently ive just barely escaped paycheck to paycheck and have the ability to go some time without one which is very nice. ah.....the times ive went hungry.. <br />
<br />
<u><i><b>are you struggling to take action? what is stopping you<br />
</b></i></u><br />
500 sales would be $20k, or around 1-2 items sold per day for a year. whats $20k? around my ft job pay, perhaps a bit less although 20k is a ''livable wage''.<br />
<br />
the most important thing is buying my dam life back. have a good one. <br /></div>
