I'm a professional internet marketer and in general a nice guy. I've always got new products on the horizon - wait till you see my next one...
I started my business by opening an Ebay Store. I went into a coma shortly after due to military vaccinations. I came home paralyzed, but had $1000 profit sitting in my Paypal account. That was the end of me working for anyone but myself. I love being home with my three kids and being able to get up from my desk whenever I feel like it. The freedom that comes from working for yourself can't be beaten by any job on earth.
I've actually had 2 brushes with death. I nearly died in 2003, as well as my coma in 2005. I was leaving a bar with a few friends and we got attacked by a group of 20 people. A car pulled up and a guy walked out with a gun. He began walking toward my best friend. I was absolutely annihilated (drunk out of my mind) and decided to step in the way. I asked him "We live in Wisconsin, what are you going to do with that?", his response was to pull the trigger.
The funny thing was that the gun was full of BBs, not bullets. I responded by punching this genius. He responded by hitting me with the butt of the gun. The problem here is that the butt of a BB gun has a 1/2 inch metal nub on it. That nub knocked a portion of my skull up against my brain. I blacked out for a few seconds. I do not remember any thing that happened next, but am told that I stomped on at least 5 of the 20 guys that attacked us. I guess I was angry ;-)
The hit from the pistol missed my temple by an inch. $30,000 worth of neurosurgery later, I was as good as new!
I mention this because it has a lot to do with what I want to tell you next.
During my coma in 2005, I had a conversation with someone. I don't know who the conversation was with. It could have been The Almighty, An Angel, or a Cruel Nurse. I will never know the truth. I do know that the conversation has changed my life dramatically.
The conversation consisted of a lot of questions from me, trying to understand what was happening. During my coma I hallucinated the entire time (this may be part of those hallucinations). I asked what was going on and why I was sick. The response was that I should be dead.
He stated that I had lightning running through my veins and would not be going anywhere anytime soon. This man said that I had too much to offer the world to be taken away and until I fulfilled what he needed me to do, I would be invulnerable to anything that may take me away from what he needed me to do. He stated that this was the second time he intervened when I was on the verge of death.
That day my wife brought my 6 month old son to see me (he just turned 2). I remember opening my eyes and locking stares with my son. I awoke from my coma the next day.
I decided shortly after our first year that I would be better suited to helping others succeed. I now focus on creating info products and software to help people succeed with their own business.
