Hi guys and sistas! I'm finally starting a progress thread after researching and reading tons of other threads. This progress thread isn't for a specific niche or venture I'm getting into, it's for my entire journey. I'm not going to stop until I've made it. Over time, I'll keep coming back to this thread to log in all of my successes and failures, for inspiration and learning.
I am now 18 years old. I'm still in school (junior.) I have a part-time job. I have to pay my own car payments, insurance, gas, etc. I have no credit. My mom has been talking to me to start my credit up by buying a tv and pay payments on it. Not now, I have way too much stuff to pay for. Recently I got a citation for speeding, so I'll have to pay that off :\. I live in a small town in Alabama. Nothing major happening here. After reading the book, I joined this forum in October (seems like yesterday.) Two months later, I joined the INSIDERS. This is where I got myself on the right track and learned so much valuable info.
On Sunday, I spent some time watching MJ's videos on Youtube. Each time I watch his vids, I get like an inspirational high lol. His idea video is what really hits me everytime.
As for me taking action, I've contacted some manufacturers in China for a product that's very popular and high in demand. Two have responded. One seems okay, I'm still talking to them at the moment. The other seems fantastic. They answered my questions promptly and asked for my logo for the product. I don't have a logo or anything as of yet. Just starting out.
Big ups for vigilante, biophase, and darius for their awesome threads! And thanks to MJ and your book, this site, and your Youtube videos. I wouldn't be this far in life.
