Following my journey can get you from the 9-5 grind to living your dreams.
Our community told me to write this sucker a while back.
Inquiring minds wanted to know: how did I go from scared security guard to smiling island hopper?
I had worked at the shipping terminal in New Jersey for a few years. 18 hour shifts, doubles from 4 AM to 8 AM and 5 vacation days per year (Europeans can pull back from reading to vomit in reaction to this horrifying situation) all pointed to one core idea: there had to be a better way to live.
Things sucked enough for me to make a series of highly uncomfortable decisions to put the 9-5 gig behind me for good.
Disgust can be a springboard if you use it that way.
In truth, this process took me a while. No one transitions seamlessly because fear grips the mind at the outset.
I felt terrified to dip my toes in the entrepreneurial pool as a newbie.
I had been fired from my security guard job a bit prior. Downsizing.
I seriously pondered quitting two days into my blogging career.
My wife Kelli talked me off of the cyber ledge.
But it took a while to get the blogging ball rolling.
Sure I struggled. We all do.
But I eventually lived my dreams.
My eBook can empower you to overcome stout obstacles in your experience.
Sometimes we need to see someone else doing it before we give ourselves permission to follow our dreams.
Who Is the eBook for?
I wrote this for anyone who feels stuck in life.
Circumstances feel crippling at times.
Worldly responsibilities all but jail your free will.
Most talk themselves out of living their dreams at the moment of even considering a major life change.
Goodness knows that I almost did.
But if I went from 9-5 gig to living my dream life…..you can too.
I am not special.
I made different decisions than most.
I wrote this eBook to share the mindset shift necessary to go from bound to free.
Migrating from surviving mode to thriving mode takes some cajones.
I hope the eBook empowers you to find that extra gear deep within your mind.
Life never needs to get in the way even if it seems impossible to surmount.
I slowly but surely went from 18 hour shifts to lazing on the beach in my tropical paradise of choice.
The journey was bumpy at times but became smooth after I learned these seven lessons from an intimately personal perspective.
I intend to empower you by spilling the beans.
