Now, I am not trying to be somber, but it is the truth. For me, the road was seven years, with lots of challenges along the way. Though I am not at the point where I would finally like to be, I am getting really close. Each day I am getting closer to where I want to be and that is the right path for me.



It felt really hard to take a different path than everyone else. I had no magic instruction book on how to get to my dreams, or recipe on how to achieve success. Though I didn't know how I was going to make it happen, I was dedicated to succeed and nothing was going to get in my way.

Though I failed many times, I was dedicated to succeeding. I had a vision of where I wanted to be in ten years that included the money I had, the car I was going to drive, and the amount of money that I had in my bank account. It was this concrete goal that I had in my minds' eye that helped me to make choices each day that took me closer to my dream.

I had some challenges along the way. The biggest challenge of all was getting my wife to believe in the same dreams that I had. She couldn't see how the business could be profitable as all she knew was that it was sucking money out of our bank account each month. She told me that I should just get a regular job just like everyone else.

If your spouse doesn't support you, it can be an uphill battle. Thankfully, after I bought some groceries with the money that I made online, she quickly turned around - I guess all she needed was some physical proof that what we were doing was working.

From that point on, things got easier. Though I was not making a lot of money, I was making a larger profit each month. I continued to do the things that were making money and quit doing those things that were not. I was still dedicated to my dream and with each passing day, I was getting steps closer to living the life I had dreamed of.

In the last six months, I was finally able to quit my job and the business was able to support us. Not only did I feel a great sense of accomplishment, but there is just something about reaching your goals and living the life that you have always dreamed of. It was my dedication to my future that let me get to this point in my life - if you dedicate your waking moments to your goals, you will have a great success story like this to share someday.
