What's up, great to be here with y'all ✌

The entrepreneurship bug got me early

Growing up poor made me ANGRY

Then IT HAPPENED..

29730

The TV show "MTV Cribs" first aired in 2000, i watched celebrities living the Dream.

Seeing a man with his own basketball court..

Behind his own mansion..

With his own music group logo on it?

29732

The show exposed me to a new world.

That moment stays with me to this day and i'd made the decision as a pre-schooler

I WILL GET RICH OR DIE TRYIN'!

I wouldn't want it any other way.

A mentor suggested i read TMF and i'm impressed at how not-boring it is.

Thanks @MJ DeMarco !

So, let's create businesses, stack cash & give the people what they've been missing!

Thanks for reading,

Marco M. of Boston, MA ✊

Hey @MarcoB1

Great to have you here in the forum and sounds like you've definitely got the desire to become an entrepreneur and nurtured it from a young age!

Are you currently running any businesses yourself or have any ideas about the direction you might take to fulfil your dreams?

Hey, @Imgal Thanks! This is a great community, it's an honor.

I'm not currently running a business

HOWEVER..

I definitely have plans

#1: Establish an Online Course Business.

While trading Forex..

While becoming a beast on Twitter.

When my income is minimum $250k per year i'll experiment with Art.

Primarily, i'd love to start a record label.

Secondarily, i'd love to write a book or two

And i'd love to get my aunt her own restaurant / food truck!

How about you, where are you on this voyage?

Welcome to the forum
These are ideas. Do you have plans written down and do you make progress every single day on your projects?

How old were you when you saw the mtv show that rocked your world?
How old are you now?
What have you been doing from then towards your goals? Really doing?

Whats up, @kkompoti

You have good points

Seen that show when i was like 5, im 22

I tried making some dreams come true..

Here they are in chronological order:

-NFL Star
-Comic Book Creator
-Painter
-Music Producer
-Beat Maker
-Mixing Engineer
-Cryptocurrency Trading

Sold 2 paintings for a total of $700

Succeeded most with my home recording studio making $25 a hour

But trading time for money, STUCK in a bedroom, sucks

Then, while doing research, i found my mentor

I know now i was relying on fame, focused on the event & the road

No, I have no written plans of action

No, Im not making progress everyday

Admittedly, l was neglecting the process

(I'm only on page 26 bear with me)

However I own a 6 week program that teaches the online course business

He recommends this book in week 1

Got that a year ago, im still on week 2

The pain is now overwhelming

I WILL NOT go another year being average or embarrassing myself or my loved ones

How far along are you in your road trip?

Thanks to folks like you, this is place is SANCTUARY

Hello fellow 22 year old :)

What's the online course you joined?

If you apply the knowledge and focus on value and action you got this!

Found this life saving forum in 2016.
Started making the mindset shift at 2014 a little before my first daughter was born.
After that I tried
Selling flashlights and trail cams some
Beekeeping 20 hives
Selling eggs 20 hens
Selling zuchini 100 plants
Selling stuff from my organic garden not much
Taking photos at events nothing
Some other minor gigs
Up to now I have made minus expenses around 3k
Currently working as a civil engineer helper as a side hustle
And almost finishing up a eccomerce site. I did it for free for a friend and I will do the marketing of it and get a 20% commission on the sales.

I have everything on paper and on trello.
My goal for 2020 is to make one small step EVERY DAY towards my goal.

Aside all of the above I have my well paying 9 to 5 and 3 daughters now
I also bought a house that I am remodelling at the moment and living inside with the family.

I also have my bigger plan written and carry that paper always with me.

I also came across some people in here and we started a accountability mastermind group. We are all trying our best to succeed.

Read the books here and you will learn a lot without having to give money to mentors.
Mentors are great but I believe they are there not for the start.they are there for helping you with the process along the way.how to overcome something on the way to success. Not before even putting your toe in the water.
For example you make a site you start writing copy you find out you suck at it and then you find a mentor pay him and he teaches you and helps you become better.

So
Go on and start doing.
Happy to have you here.
Check the gold and notable threads at first.
Also buy and read the books.
GREAT VALUE IN THERE!
But please start doing .
Find your niche and work your way to financial freedom!

Nice!

Usually we know enough to get started, and have enough internet to learn the rest :p
