This is My Story and I'm Sticking to It ;)Hey, for those who don't know me, my name is John Dos Santos and I am a health fanatic and love personal development. Let me start by sharing with you my quick story. I was born in Massachusetts but raised and went to school in Portugal. I feel lucky for having such a great Dad, that taught the most important things in life to me, to never quit, always give your best and just go forward. Looking back now, I almost feel like Robert Kiyosaki with the Rich Dad and Poor Dad, but my Dad was mostly the 2 Dad's in one. As I was growing up all he kept telling me was to go to school, get good grades and land a good job with benefits (for the income security). On the other hand he pretty much never worked for anyone, he was the owner and captain of a big fishing boat in Massachusetts, he had investment properties, became a builder and invester...and so forth....Thank God that I followed his steps and not necessarily his words. Why all this? To show you that people follow what you do and not what you tell/teach them to do.
The Land of Freedom & Opportunity!I came to the United States almost at the age of 19 with a P.H.D., I was Poor Hungry and Driven. First day I arrived, I went to a Computer shop and applied for a job (which I got it), now the problem was, I did not speak a word of English, but having a boss and co-workers that only spoke English I was forced to learn, and learn quick. From there a year later I decided to get a job at a Dealership as a Sales Rep...not knowing what I was getting into, you can imagine how nervous I was. This was the best 6 months ever, one day I had a lady that came in to purchase a car for her daughter, and at one point I had to ask for the Income documentation for the auto loan, well needless to say we were in October and she had YTD Earnings of over $400,000.00. That just blew my mind, I had never imagined so much money, and I sat back looking at the lady and thinking to my self, if this lady can make this kind of money, I can do it. An hour later, I opened the yellow pages and called a Mortgage Company (which that was the industry she was in), got an interview setup for next day, and got hired on the spot. I out sold all the agents and 6 months later I opened my own company for bigger profits and to leverage myself by having mortgage brokers working for me. Mind you that at this point my Enlgish was still rusty, but all I knew was to keep on going and never fear.
Every Mens' Dream...or is it?!?The beautiful cars, toys, big houses,....all of that was great, but I was missing something much more valuable, Time Freedom, and time is something that you can never buy back. Even though I was the boss, I worked from eight to faint, between the Mortgage Company, a Construction Company and 2 Tanning Salons that I opened meanwhile. Was stressed out of my mind every single day, no time to eat, relax, enjoy the great things that only money can buy, but most importantly never spent time with my other half.That day, the day of disgust, that everyone has at a different point in their lives finally arrived. It was then, that I decided to make a move to Florida leaving everything behind and start a new life, not knowing exactly what was going to happen, but just kept on going forward.
Everything Happens for A Reason...2 weeks later I run into this gentleman that shares with me this thing called "Network Marketing", which I had never heard of, but loved the concept. Got started first, just for the money, specially when I could recruit agents and get paid a great amount of money, while I was sleeping, away on vacation sipping on a margarita or in my shorts on my backyard next to the pool. Just like J. Paul Getty, Andrew Carnegie and John D. Rockefeller said “I’d rather earn 1% of 100 peoples efforts than 100% of my own effort.â€
Inspiration, Motivation, Attitude & Gratitude!Isn't great when you can count on others? Very rare to find those but my sponsor was a great leader and became my mentor. I started to listen to him and do the things he asked, get personally developed, read 10 pages of a good book every day, listen to educational tapes/cds while you drive (that's why it is called Drive Time University hehe), associate with positive people and with people that have what you want, don't miss a meeting, a training, an event, don't miss.. don't miss.. don't miss!!! So I did it, he asked me to stick and stay, to do the right/positive little disciplines that don't seem much in the act of doing, but compounded over time leads you to Success. What a great feeling when you find harmony and peace, you become this magnetic force full of energy attracting to yourself the Abundance and Happiness that you desire and deserve in your life.
Helping Others...The gift was when, I realized that with the financial independence along came time freedom and the greatest of all the ability of helping others; the payoff is so immense when you help the deserved ones achieve their goals in life. Great inspiration by Jim Rohn, forget about your problems or bills he says, help other people with their problems and yours disapears. Zig Ziglar - "You will get all you want in life if you help enough other people get what they want."Not so quick of a story hehe, but I hope that something of what I wrote, just turns on the switch for you.
This is YOUR TIME...!The power of working as team is SO great, what we are looking for is what it's called synergy when one plus one equals more than two. Don't wait any longer, this is your time, today is the day. Dream again, let's do this together, we can do it!Forget the past, today is the day. Just keep on moving forward. Persistency and Consistency is the Key!Forget Those Dream Stealers.I Challenge You to Upgrade Your Thinking.Give Yourself Permission to Succeed.Do The Thing And You Will Have The Power.
