This thread will probably dictate the future of my life.
I feel the need to write this thread to keep myself accountable and for social proof. I am more engaged and likely to reach my goals if other people know them too.
First a little bit of backstory:
I introduced myself on the fastlane forum about a year ago.
At that time I was following @Fox old thread and trying to get my first clients on web design. My why was freedom of new experiences but I did not have clearly in mind what I really wanted.
Finally when I was going to get my first client, on March of this year Italy went in lockdown ad my client wanted to wait before paying me.
I felt really frustrated and impotent about what happened during those months, and I did not prospect again until the end of may.
That's when everything changed in my life.
A friend of mine suggested me to give a look at an interview of an Italian Entrepreneur, Daniele Bogiatto. He founded on 2017 a tribe called Tribeke, which means "tribe of extraordinary people" and he has a facebook group in which he was going live every day talking about what's going in the world and other interesting topics he is an expert in, like feng shui, financial organization, using laws to your advantage.
I started watching his facebook lives.
And that's when the magic happened. And trust me, magic is painful.
Day after day after day, I realized that what I think is true is not. This may apply both for the world outside me, as well as my self.
When the world was fighting against a virus, I was fighting with myself.
When the fight was over, I came out of this crysis with more awareness and less asleep than before.
In post lockdown I re-started to look for clients and finally I managed to do same sales call. I also sticked with the Tribeke group and watched every day the facebook lives of daniele bogiatto.
I failed many times, but at the end I always stood up.
At the end, like and angel coming from the sky, I got my first client.
After 2 days, I got the opportunity to join on a project aimed at positioning Daniele Bogiatto as an influencer on Twitch, at the same time granting us all the step and knowledge to start our own journey to become influencers on Twitch.
This happened this august and it was a really fun month.
I understood that videogaming it's not a bad thing, as my parents told me since I was a child, but it can be an opportunity to grow as well as to get profitable.
I learn that the real treasure is relationship with other people, the right one, which share your same ideas and passions. The energy that people can give to you is unmeasurable.
I rediscovered the joy of giving, helping other people with their problem and give them what they want.
And with this spirit and energy I want to start this September.
My goal by the end of December is gaining 12k euro.
With 2 different jobs at the same time, these 4 months will be very tough. Sometimes energy will drop, sometimes I will want to quit, many times I will fail.
But I won't give up. I won't give up because I am not alone, I won't give up because now I know what I want, I want it badly.
For today I'll stop here. Tomorrow, next post on what I did this week in order to reach my goal.
Have a nice sunday everyone!
