Good Morning, I am Anthony and I reside in California's Central Valley, the Agriculture Hub. I just wanted to submit a brief introduction since I see myself being active in this forum. I am 35 years old, I am a single father of a 14 year old boy going on 25. I currently work in the Security industry as a Healthcare Security Officer for a major California Healthcare Network. I have worked in the Security industry for the past five years and prior to that, I worked in Agriculture. Prior to 2013, I made treasonous choices that directly impacted my life. I fell into the wrong crowd at a very early age and fell into substance abuse at the age of 12. I didn't completely repair, change and redevelop my entire life until I was around 27. In 2013, I was focused on rebuilding every aspect of my life and I was hungry to life a good life. To keep this fairly short and simple I will focus on my entreprenuer failures which led me to where I am today (Which is still growing). I have tried the MLM style concepts, I have tried "investing" in money chains, I have completed 3 complete business plans that have been ready to be sent over to a lender but only fell short after learning my credit score, and job history was not in good standings. The businesses that I have sitting in folders are great concepts, two of which specifically for the Agriculture industry and the other one is a Seasonal business. After reading, the millionaire fastlane , which is one of many books I have picked up over the past few years is the only book that has helped change my perspective and the way I think. It has given me the confidence to fail in return, to succeed exponentially. In my early twenties, when I stated I was a slave to substance abuse, I was also a criminal. I was a dirtbag and my record proved it (Sidebar: my record is completely destroyed and I have re-established my life in FULL!) but with those years I developed skills. Yes, I know that sounds really bad but today I can tell you that what I learned as a criminal and excelled my life today in the Security Industry and Public Safety. I am taking Security Industry concepts as they relate to physical safety and well-being and making them available to the masses. I am currently working with the small business development center to help me organize my thoughts and take calculated steps. I combining my past life and current life to create, design, develop and produce a piece of Technology that will bring personal security advocacy to the pockets of millions! Thank you for reading this far, I appreciate each and everyone of you.
