Why my idea are alway out of ordinary

Since I'm young , i have alway crazy and unusual idea. People do it one way, I will find another way better or not it was my way with my touch. I wrote so many business plan who can work but they never gone farther than by computer and in a talk between 2 beers with my friends. I don't know why at that time I didn't want to be involve in any long term commitment. All my desire was to travel , go to New Zealand, go to ski in British Columbia, discover the world, improve my english and that's all. Yes Iwas interested by money, more by work than money I will say.

Now after have done my 10 years of aventure like a planned and find the woman of my life, of course my wife. I feel like I need a new challenge , a new reason to go for it, to dive or to grow up. It was easy to travel around the world. Now I want to get wealthy and have enough income that I can travel in vacation, buy a house, not worry about tomorrow payment ... Here I am broken but rich in ressource.

If you think that I have a easy life, I will say that you interprete easy as you whish, cause I tell you that any people won't to trade for my shoe today.... but tomorrow my shoe will take more value and in 1 year or 2 people will ask me where did I got my shoes.

So i check what I have done before and never gave up. My first trip from home was to go to france to do a stage for few dollars a month and the fliht ticket , food and place to stay. I had to work 6 days a week , from 9am to midnight. Do you know Club med, it was pretty much similar with less budget and a smaller team. From there I decided after my season to go to learn english in Banff (alberta). I arrive there with less than 800$ and I will tell you that it's pretty hard to find a place to live there for cheap. I finally found a room non furnish, it was no kitchen only a bathroom share with 7 other peoples. So from cleaning dishes, to toilet, to shower that was the same place for all of us. I was paying 300$ a month, so I share my room and have to pay finally 150$. Because my english and experience was pretty bad, I have been 1 month with out to work, showing up everyday without to be pay. Eating raw sausage because it was the cheapest thing I can find for finally coming back at the end of the season with enough money on the side to go to my next destination and go after a little while 5 times a week to the restaurant, have slept a the Chateau Lake Louise which is over my budget . So finally I did not too bad. But I worked hard, every morning I was doing the task that nobody was interested too, putting the fences and the board in the departure area and beginner area. Sure than when is minus 30 degre and you hav to take of your glove to fix a drill for 8$/hour you have to be really motivate.

I arrived in New Zealand with 300$ with my girfriend. She though I was crazy at that time. But we finally end renting a house that we share with peoples and get out of the story with a little money. Sleeping in the car, working in a fruit packing house, finding new place to stay. Nothing was really easy. When I look back, I think making money should not be that hard. You bet. We will see. But I alays said that you can find money every where around us. If you think that the money is only for people who have money. I don't think its true. If you meet somebody who have money and you know a good idea to use is money to make it bigger. Do you think that this person will be happy to know and give a part of the profit. And if you do that for 2 persons you will twice more money. And with the money you will make you will be finally able to make it grow and get 100% of these profit. Think about it. What people who work hard and hav money don't have that you do..... TIME.... and time is monayable.
A Doctor who win thousand and thousand of dollar will not have the time to take the research to invest all is money, he will never have time for himself. What is the point to have money if you don't have time. You sale them time, you find a way to make their money grow up, they win, you got a profit, you win. And is the base of pretty much every 0$ to millions story.

Easy. Not at all. I have time since 2 months now, thinking putting number together try to make thing happen, taking course to learn. I didn't do a cent yet and I spend all I have playing on credit now. Did I gave the effort at the right place, maybe not. But on the long run I will not giving up and I will get what I want.

Its hard time !

Again and again the same story! Next week , next next week! Where are the real programmer. I think some people cal themselves pro of website design and programmation but when they have to do something out of the template they transform a 6 weeks job in more than 6 months. unfortunaly I'm not the one who gave the contract and his not my money but I can tell you that I will not regive any contract to this australian company who should maybe limited their website design to copy paste and template already done that you can find everywhere at diffrent price. How can you believe on a team who transform a 6 week project in a 6month and we still in the none finish but soon!!!! what A JoKE!

So here I am on the hard process to become wealthy, first problem depend of other who are not reliable. Make a reliable team , it's the number one rule!!!! If you have a team who don't respect time frame they will just be PAIN in the butt at short or long term.

So now I will conecntrate more my idea and time on the real estate , at least it depend more of my efforts.

Hard start make the result more enjoyable. I pretend. But for the moment the bank account going down and the result don't show up yet.

I concentrate myself and try to analyzse what I can do to improve my situation.

almost there

Waiting for my blog I decide to learn some other way to make more income. I study and practice in real estate investment. The market where I'am is pretty special. Whistler will host the Olympic in 2010 and the real estate market is pretty hard to predict. But I learn that every house is a goos deal if it's at the right price.

So I play with number all day long and even when I sleep. I try to figure out how I will do my first deal. Every time a little victory bring me forward. The only thing who come in my mind when I'm thinking to put it on the side because to hard ..because this and that... so I take my positive spirit and say to myself the only reason I fail will be because I gave up. So I'm thinking about what piece of the puzzle I'm missing and find it. It's always little victory which make me smile and happy. When I find it hard and hear in my webinar that it's easy I just think about skiing. It's all the same , on anything , if don't practice and just read and read you will never end. Often we wait to know everything before to do something and we spend to much energy get no result. Doing it in the same time you learn is the best way to improve. You find yourself front of a wall and you need to figure where the others pass to get in the other side. And this is pretty much what mean this story. My life.

Patience

Waiting for my website I try toearn something different. Th e new course online I have is pretty interesting. Expensive but I count it like an investment in myself. I develop some passion for real estate, it's challenging, interesting and you meet people who are ready to help you. I'm impress for the moment from I'm learning. It can be realy good alternative to invest on. Even broken I try to figure out how can I do to buy a house. Living in a expensive place like Whistler is not easy.

I'm ready to rock with my website, I have learn so many things, I though I knew a lot about SEO. If you want an advise, It's when you think that you know everything about a subject and you stop trying to learn more that you pass from top to second place. If you don't discover, meet a new person, make a new contact or other ressource to improve you loose. Go for it,Never give up!

I already see myself growing up and I didnt started yet!

The phone call

Receiving message in link with the book I just buy (spam or not ) I don't know I read one or two. Curious I check around on internet to find out who is that guy. Ok ! Another millionnaire! cool for him! He get a new challenge, cool for him too!

In the same days I receive a phone call to see if I can be elected to be part of his new challneges to raise a lot of money for an organisme and in the same time take a number of peoples and together have over 2billions$ of revenue. Why not? So I get few interview 3 or 4 on the phone. I'm broken at that moment . I just took a loan to pay out all my credit card, I don't work, I have no revenu and I have 800$ in one of my account. I have just enought to survive until my ski season start.

During my last interview, they ask me how much I can reach on my credit. I told them few thousands dollars thinking that this money will be invest directly on my business. They probably want to know how much I'm ready to put on myself.

Last interview I'm selected ! Ouar! Is everybody is accepted , I'm thinking. The last person with who I talk is the kind of manager and he told me that this week he selected only 3 persons and in the conversation he slide me a bill of approximate 5000$.

I'm happy on one side cause I will have somebody to guide me with my website to succes hopefully. In the other hand maybe I have been trapped like a mouse with cheese.

I start the program , thinking positive, If I'm not all on I will not enjoy 100% of it, I will member for one year and have a mentor and other online course during all that time. All I have to do to reach my goal is to listen to them do the exercice and reseacrh to develop my website. I'm already few steps ahead, I have my idea is started to develop and now I just to wait few more days before to get my website. We will see if that 5000$ will be effective or not , but so far he open many doors to ideas.

I'm excited to start. But I can't loose, I have no choice so don't look back look forward. Never give up you will never fail it is what one of the book teach me.
