Hello!
Before you try to crucify me hear me out, I thought I would get your attention so I can introduce myself.I hope the title does not offend anyone and If it does my apologies...
My name is Saul I am from Guadalajara and I am 40 years old :icon_super: and in my mind I already drive a LAMBO. I have always been searching for something better in my life. I came to the us 20 yeas ago with $5 dollars in my pocket. I spend 2 years inside and apartment because I dd not know the language. My first job was working 40 hours a week (graveyard I might add) in exchange for $16 dollars:eusa_clap: a week. I continued to survive and attempted MLM's and other forms of income but never worked. Job after job, you get the picture.
I will not bore you with details but I can fast forward to 2009 and I picked up the book of the 2 dads and Tony Robbins. joined the IM(internet Marketing) world and failed to make it nevertheless, I never stopped trying to make it but then I understood after reading the book the real goals.
Short story:
After reading the 2 dads book we took out our 401k (30k <- this was our million dollars) and I invested in 1 minute (literally) in a JV and lost it all right away but I knew that the person who I partner with was someone I could trust (it was just a hunch, nothing more). i told my wife to trust me while I continue to work my regular 9-5 plus working on a web development business I launched a web marketing company. not making a single dime for 2 years.
Fast forward to 2011 I made my first sale $500:hl:. I had attempted to sell a website/fanpage a more to other people with no luck, feeling like a failure. Then all of a sudden something hit me saying to myself that I was worth millions (not sure why) but it happen. I put a plan into action, continued to educate myself and came across this book. Amazing, if the book was a girl I would say "hey, wassup girl"
I red the book 3 weeks ago (game changer) and at this point I would always like clockwork check on my JV partner (while working from 5m until 12am daily (by the way my body tells me 1 minute before it will shut down and I walk like a zombie to bed and pass out its pretty funny to see) how he was doing for (never asking for any money) just saying and nothing more. He will always tell me about opportunities and more but nothing more...my wife will be mad because she said that he owned u; I would tell her that was not true, it was just a deal that did not pan out.
3 weeks ago he called saying that he had an opportunity that he will like to talk more about it so I played a prank on him (almost backfired) saying that I had quit my job and I was ready to start; he freaked and and cursed me but we came to agreement that was a joke. He would introduce me to a company owner for a marketing position (the owner is worth like 30 million+).
I went made a presentation to them without any reservations. They offered me less money that what I was making and I took the job because I had faith in my skills and I would bring something to them that they had never seen, real marketing strategies. I told the owner I did not care about money ( I really don't) for some weird reason because I know that I will make it financially I know that. 1 week in the Job I got a 20k raise in a week (not a lot but more than enough) they are talking about me partnering in deals and sitting in the board meetings and talking about 7.5 million dollar deals in properties and more it seems surreal but its getting closer I feel it. I am working on apps and systems to develop and more anything I am having fun with a smile in my face...
Here is my humble advice:
P.S. Anyone that wants to get in touch and share ideas with me send me message I am not financially successful YET but I have a successful mindset and willing to help others.
P.P.S.Here is my first post in this forum and many more to come, here is a window to who I am and I hope I can help others as MJ helped me....I leave you with my favorite quote.

Here is my humble advice:
- Never put a price-tag on you because you could cap yourself.
- Like Jim Rohn said " work on your fortune".
- Learn something new every day.
- Help other people.
- Be creative.
- Have a global goal and target.
- Read or listen to books daily.
- Stay away from toxic people.
P.S. Anyone that wants to get in touch and share ideas with me send me message I am not financially successful YET but I have a successful mindset and willing to help others.
P.P.S.Here is my first post in this forum and many more to come, here is a window to who I am and I hope I can help others as MJ helped me....I leave you with my favorite quote.
“All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake up in the day to find it was vanity, but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dreams with open eyes, to make it possible.†LOA
