If You Have A Passion, But You Don’t Know Where To Start, This Is Your Time. 5 Steps To The Dream Life
Back in the day, right after high school, I was in a bad place. I had found my passion, but I was stuck. My parents were pressing on me about going to college, insisting that I continue my education. I appreciated that, but I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. All I knew was that I loved skateboarding. My girlfriend at the time was also pushing me to “go to school so you can get a safe secure job”. So when I didn’t go right away after high school, it seemed that they were all disappointed. My girl started to insinuate that I wasn’t doing anything with my life, because I couldn’t keep a job, and couldn’t sit in classroom, learning about things I’m not passionate about. My Dad said, “what the hell you gonna do with that skateboard? You need to go to school and get a job”.
I Gave In And “Settled” For A Bit
Because there was so much influence from other people on what they thought I should do, I gave in and started going to college. It was absolute torture to be in there. First of all, I had no idea what I was gong to school for. I didn’t have a career path or a plan. I also noticed that out of all the people I knew, not ONE of them found (or kept) a job using the skills they gained in college. This lasted about a month, and then it started snowing, and I couldn’t take it. I dropped out of college and took off to the mountains to follow my passion of snowboarding instead.
Owning Your Life
Now I didn’t know what I did when I did it, but now I do. I thought for myself, and fought for my dream. I changed my environment. I got around people that were better than me, so I was pushed harder, and got better faster. I found more opportunity. I started to network, make friends, and do whatever it took to snowboard every day that I could.
Guess what…
I ended up being a professional snowboarder for over 17 years, living every dream I ever had. And if I would have “settled”, listening to other people tell me what they thought was best for me, I’d be stuck in some building somewhere, doing some crappy job that I hate, making someone else rich. I know this, because I never thought I would own my own business. Getting to school and getting a job was all I knew, because that was all my parents knew, and that information was passed down to me.
Can You
he answer is ABSOLUTELY YES!!! When you love what you do, it tends to seem EXTREMELY easy!
In today’s world, everybody wants their own online business, because it creates better income and more freedom for a better lifestyle. If you have your own blog, and you connect with like-minded people, creating valuable content that those people are interested in, well, you’ll be making amazing streaming income from your laptop! By having relevant content on a certain subject, you will slowly be able to rank on Google and other search engines, creating TRAFFIC to your site! Traffic then converts into SALES. As you already know, if your sales are ONLINE, you can be earning income 24 hours/day, 7 days/week, 365 days/yr!
Now think about that:
Imagine how different your life would be if you didn’t have to go IN to a crappy job. Imagine not having to listen to some crappy boss, as they decide how much you’re worth, when you can go home, and when you can’t even eat lunch!! Now that I think about it, can you even call yourself “free” if you have to ask somebody ELSE if you can EAT?!!!
If you already have a regular, normal small business – imagine not having to actually be in the building, working, to keep making the money. Instead, you could be outdoors, doing what you love to do, making money 24/7!!
With your current occupation – If you STOP working, do you STOP getting paid? This is called linear income. If you are in this situation, you will never be free. To truly be FREE, you need to be earning RESIDUAL income! Now..
Imagine being able to be doing EXACTLY what you LOVE to do, BLOGGING about it every day for less than an hour per day, and getting PAID to do it!!
Now THAT is happiness (and SUCCESS) in my book!!
If you consider yourself an open-minded and teachable entrepreneur at heart, you MUST take an honest look at this BRAND NEW, simple blogging system!

Ok so I just got off the phone with one of my friends. He’s a “connector”…
He lives a legendary lifestyle, simply by connecting people.
It’s mind-blowing how simple it really is:
In the book called “The Tipping Point”, a connector is someone who is the life of the party, knows everybody, and loves to connect people together! They are all about good relationships… but they have absolutely no idea how valuable they (personally) are to the marketplace.
In fact, without them, business would move WAY more slowly, or not at all!
Can I be PAID BIG for “connecting”?
Yep. We’ve figured it out.
Think about this…
In business, “word of mouth” is the most powerful form of advertising and moving a product or service. (Think about Amazon.com, your favorite book or movie, your favorite restaurant, etc.)
You probably experienced it through a friend.
It is also the superior form of marketing simply because people don’t trust the TV or radio any more. They trust their friends and family more…
And if you’re really paying attention…
… just watch cable television tonight.
On the next commercial brake they’re gonna you: “Hey if you tell your friends and family about Comcast Cable, we’ll give you $100 off of your next bill!”
Why would they do that? Because YOU are valuable.
You see, when you do that little extra work and connect that person to their cable service, well now they have a customer that is paying residual income, every month, into their company! A ton of money coming in for them!
That’s why they’ll pay you $100 for it – it’s worth it! And they know…
Your NETWORK is VALUABLE
And most people have no idea they are being used for their network and not being PAID for it. They also have no idea that they could be monetizing their network for THEMSELVES!
Think about your favorite restaurant. Have you taken people there with you? Of course!
But has the restaurant ever sent you a check the next month, saying, “Hey thanks for bringing all those people in, here’s a CHECK!”
But now, instead of paying millions of dollars to one marketing firm just to market, (where they have no control or metrics for conversion), the #smart companies now choose to pay “affiliates” and/or distributors (connectors!) to spread the word.
And if you were to really do some due diligence, you’ll see why the Direct Selling and Home Business industries have caused more millionaires than ANY other industry, ALL PUT TOGETHER.
Like best-selling financial author Robert Kiyosaki puts it…
“Rich people build NETWORKS, while everybody else looks for WORK”!
And the best part is you don’t have to be a rocket scientist and “know everything” to be able to make TONS of money with a Direct Sales company using a simple online system.
You only need to realize you have an existing network, and you can also BUILD a network. Then you can simply use your existing qualities to help thousands of people get what they’re looking for.
You KNOW people, you have a NETWORK, (you probably have over 100 people in the “contacts” of your cell phone right now), and that’s not counting Social Media friends, and they ALL need products and services!
Your Network Is Your NET WORTH!
Then why isn’t EVERYONE doing it? Is it too good to be true?
Well, many people doubt their ability to learn new things, focus on their weaknesses and sabotage themselves. Without a trained mind, we literally talk ourselves out of success and don’t give ourselves a chance.
Every day, I hear people say things out loud like, “I don’t have any time”, “I don’t know anybody”, and “oh, but I’m not a salesman”!
What they are actually doing is selling THEMSELVES on why they CAN’T be successful. And
Whether You Think You CAN, Or You Think You CAN’T – Either Way You’re RIGHT!
A un-trained mind will think it’s about “selling” people on stuff. But a trained mind knows you don’t have to “sell” people on anything.
Instead, you probe and ask questions to find out what people are looking for, and then provide them with solutions to their problems or challenges. Care about people and make a connection!
Once you understand this concept, wealth will be knocking your door down to get you what you want!
So, there are plenty of products and companies out there that solve most people’s problems. If you can find a pain in the marketplace and give it an aspirin, then you will be wildly successful.
So if you’re a “connector”, (you are able to provide the solutions to people’s problems), you will be a WEALTHY PERSON!!!
Think:
Who do you know, who might want to:
– Lose weight? – (A billion dollar weight loss industry)
– Make more money than they’re making right now, by having their own international home-business? (A Trillion-dollar Home Business industry)
– Wants to live a healthier lifestyle, and remove themselves from the disease categories by at least 30%? (A Trillion dollar Wellness industry)
– Pays too much in taxes and needs write-offs? (It’s not what you “make” – it’s what you KEEP.)
– Wants to retire 20 years earlier?
– Has high cholesterol? ( A billion dollar Wellness industry)
The list goes on and on.
The point is, YOU are a connector, and everyone you know is looking to solve their problems, avoid pain and move toward pleasure, whether they want to admit it or not.
Those things are health, wealth, and happiness, and you have the power to provide them with the solutions to achieve these things!
And yes, people don’t like to be “sold”, but they LOVE to buy things that will make their life better!
Now, go out there and get what you deserve!
The World Is Yours, M!
Oh, P.S. – For questions, more information or details, feel free to CONTACT US NOW. We’re here for ya!
I mean seriously, not a good feeling. It’s no way to live…
Even as a professional snowboarder, I would have to wake up before I was done sleeping, (before the sun comes up and before my kids were even awake), and I was pretty bummed about it.
This was my daily routine before I had the sense enough to ask a mentor friend some advice.
As I asked the questions, a few of them took the time to show me “how to make money while you sleep” and my wheels started turning.
I thought I’d share a post about it, because once you realize the power of building business assets and growing teams of leadership that span around the world, you can’t un-realize it!
Gotta say, I’m feeling pretty fucking blessed right now.
But it wasn’t easy…
Not Just A Catchy Phrase
Making money while you sleep is not even the right wording.
Because when I’m sleeping and the money is coming in, it’s not like I’m actively working to make the money at that time – I’m sleeping!
I mean yes, you have to be dead-serious and consistent, investing the time and effort to build yourself a real business, but self-growth is fun and you can make your own schedule!
And once you’ve grown a business with a system that works for you 24-7, your income is automatically generated, so you literally wake up in a state of euphoria, grateful, with multiple sources of income.
Imagine that…
A financial fortress around you and your family that nothing can penetrate. This is how you sleep comfortably.
Not to mention the fact that you if you hate alarm clocks, you can choose to wake up when you’re DONE sleeping – THAT was always my ultimate goal!
Oh and one more thing:
It’s not only about the money, but you have more freedom to do whatever the hell you want, ALL DAY LONG.
Here’s the part where I (also) said, “YEAH RIGHT”…. “Is that even possible?”
Yes, here’s HOW:
Do you realize that when you’re asleep, somebody on the other side of the world is purchasing something online, so you can literally have commission checks waiting for you every day when you wake up?
Geez, wouldn’t YOU feel more energized to get up? Would you feel like sharing what you discovered?
This is what happens when you realize how simple it is to make that happen for yourself…
However, this is not the “normal” way you’ve been taught to make money, so it’s out of your “comfort zone”…
You’re gonna to have to suspend your disbelief for a moment to wrap your head around this.
“Financial Freedom”
It’s a real catchy phrase these days, but it’s (still) extremely elusive to most, because of your “normal” programming.
They told you, “Go to school, learn a skill, so you can utilize your skills at a safe & secure job, working hard until you’re 65 or 70 years old”.
“THEN”, they said, (when you’re old, achy and too tired to want to do anything), “you can travel the world and have quality time with your family!”
They Told You To Do It, But Who Is “THEY”?
I finally sat down and got coached to gain clarity on what I really wanted in my life, and it it turns out that real freedom would be impossible with any “normal” job or small business.
And don’t just believe me, (I’m already bias), but just look around…. you’ll realize:
Now, if you’re like I was, you shy away from anything new or different.
We all initially think “that’s not for me“, because it’s uncomfortable to have to go out and learn something new or reinvent yourself.
A mentor once told me, “growth is most definitely uncomfortable, and sometimes even painful, but it is so damn worth it.” …… especially when it comes to making money while you sleep!
Your Ego Tries To Keep You STUCK
Most of us have an ego and it doesn’t like to be “wrong”…
So initially, you might not want to admit that what you’re currently doing for work is NOT getting you where you want to go, but you stay there, STUCK.
I “Already Know”About How To Make Money While I Sleep
I know what goes through many people’s minds, because I used to think and feel the same way.
I thought I already knew the path, but I wasn’t WALKING the path.
I was making tons of money and everyone else thought I was “successful”, but I didn’t feel successful because I didn’t have time freedom.
I didn’t want to start from scratch and have to learn “new concepts” or ideas, but I had to start somewhere…
Later I learned the new concepts and strategies would ultimately set me free. I just wish I wouldn’t have waited so long.
It’s funny how we all do things that we know are not working, but we sit there in what we call “quiet desperation”. Don’t do it ANY LONGER.
Every Day Matters
The longer it takes, the more painful your regrets (and realizations) are, later on…
So here’s the cold, hard, simple truth that my mentor friends told me:
Linear income means you have to work to make the money, but then you have to work AGAIN to make the money… it’s like running in a hamster wheel.
A different or better job will get you exactly the same results.
As an employee, you are taxed so heavily that you will never get ahead.
When you do get a “raise”, it always comes more responsibilities and more taxes to pay – you’ll have even less freedom.
You end up trading the most valuable hours of your life for depreciating dollars – (especially with today’s inflation).
And sooner or later, you realize that it’s not the money that you are looking for :
What you’re looking for is the freedom and quality of life that money gets you.
There is no freedom in a job. It will forever keep you far away from your other passions.
Now yes, if you love what you do, that is success, but like my friend Scott says :
“If when you stop working, you stop getting paid, then you’re a slave to money and you’re not free.”
Anthony Robbins says, “Success is about being able to do what you want, when you want, with who you want, for as long as you want.”
In my experience, he’s telling the truth:
In fact, I learned that it is actually worse to be “successful” in traditional small business, because the more “successful” my businesses grew, the more busy I was, meaning I had less time freedom.
I made tons of money, but had no life.
I was a professional, (so because of my specialized skills, I could not duplicate myself, so nobody was able to take my place.
If I stopped working, I stopped getting paid.
(Hmm, that’s the same as a JOB, isn’t it?)
I felt like a slave, owned by my businesses – linear income – (same as my jobs in the earlier days). It demanded all of my time, money, and energy.
I was always the last one to be paid, after all of the taxes, employees, and overhead was paid.
Why Making Money While You Sleep Is More Important Than You Think
When I was younger, my parents weren’t around as much as they wanted to be, because they had to work all day.
I got in ridiculous amounts of trouble because my Dad wasn’t there to discipline me. He worked in another state.
My Mom was highly educated, but could not find a job for what she graduated for. She ended up being a used car saleswoman. Their hours are 9am to 10:30pm.
I never saw her. She had to work to support us.
I know many fathers that feel like they support their family, but they don’t get to see their family as much as they would like.
Twenty-four seven leveraged recurring income is your solution. It’s the only thing wealthy people invest their time into.
They do not teach their kids to “go to school, so you can have a safe secure job”.
They think outside the box. They teach their (C student) kids how to HIRE the (A student) kids!
They create quality time for their kids, and use smarter business “vehicles” to achieve the life of their dreams.
“Systems” meaning well-oiled proven step-by-step plans that work….every time, all the time!
They are proven solutions for YOU, and if you work them, they work. And ultimately you’ll have a system running your business instead of YOU running the business!
I remember one of my mentors telling me:
“The ONLY reason you are NOT making a 6-figure income is because nobody has ever gone out of their way to educate you on a proven, step-by-step system, or you’d be there already!”
Last few important things I had to ask myself:
“Is what I am doing right now going to get me what I want in next 4-5 years?”
“Is what I’m doing right now even working?”
