Hello!
I've been on this forum for about 2 months now. At this point, I want to quickly introduce my self and thank all you people on this forum for sharing your stories and insights! I read both of MJ's books and I think those were the two most important books in my life: No BS, only the truth - thank you MJ! Thank you a lot.
So who am I?
I'm an engineer from Europe and I'm about to finish my masters in mechanical engineering. I was always a hard working guy, studying a lot and chasing the "dream" of a corporate career. After my studies, I can probably get a very good paying job (close to 6 figures per year). Good right?
There is one problem with that: Last year I went to Australia for 6 months (first time abroad) and I had the best time of my life. For the first time in my life, I realized that there are so many things in this world to discover and that spending 40-50 hours a week to earn a living is a not the life I want to live. I realized that a "normal" life would never allow me (and my family at some point, don't have one yet) to live a fulfilling life. And this is the reason why I'm here.
My dream
Being able to offer my family and me a fulfilling life, to live life on my own terms, to spend as much time as possible with friends and to be able to go after my new hobby: surfing (I got to know the sport and the lifestyle in Australia and I love it!). The question that drives me and that I hope to never find an answer for:
Action
I started to build my first business and I'm going to approach my first customer next week. I will post a progress thread in the near future!
Thanks again to everyone!

How extraordinary can I make the life of my loved ones and my life?
