Dedication

Well, first of all, I'd like to dedicate this book to my parents. I was a mess up for so many years. I really wanna make them proud. I have to make up for things since I was such a trouble maker as a kid! Love you guys, and thank you for everything you did for me. I do not say this enough, but I love my siblings too! I would not be here today helping people from all around the world if it was not for you. I appreciate everything you have done for me!

I want to thank everybody I've been associated with. To get to this point, I went through a lot of trainers, a lot of mentors, a lot of coaches, a lot of life experiences.

I want to thank my fans who eat up and enjoy my content who watch my daily vlog. It's because of you that all of this is possible. So I want to thank you for entrusting me with your most valuable commodity: your time.

My Amazing Wife. She left everything in Sydney and came to the States to join me, for life. She has put up with my crazy cell phone addiction, my endless work hours... waking up in the middle of the night only to find out Im not there (Im in the office)... She has dealt with my crazy business ideas. She comes from a very structured background and when she came into my world it felt like a tornado for her. Nonetheless, she has stayed with me and given me two crazy, yet beautiful children. My wife is my rock. Without her endless support, Id probably still be homeless! You are my best friend, and I love you.

Above all else, I thank God. Without him, nothing is possible. He loves us all tremendously and has shown all of us endless compassion. I pray to him every day.

Ok, guys... are you ready? Lets Rock and Roll!

Introduction

From Half Dead and Homeless
to a Top 2% Earner

Youd never know it by looking at me... But guess what... I used to be homeless. YUP!

I was the poster child for bad choices. I couldnt hold down a job to save my life. I wasted my time with eating, smoking and partying. You see I believe that life consists of several orbs. You have your physical health, mental health, spiritual health, relationship health and your big WHY.

My physical health was a joke. I was 50+ pounds overweight and the most exercise I had was taking a cigarette from its pack to my mouth.

I was in a toxic relationship that gave me debilitating anxiety.

I wasnt very in touch with my spiritual side and I had no big WHY.

In other words, I was pulverized as a human. Things werent going so well for me. Things were so bad that one night I ended up at a Yale New Haven hospital half dead. I partied too much that night. I should have died from mixing things that you shouldnt mix.

Instead of dying

God saved me.

Perhaps He saw something inside me that I couldnt even see myself. He took away all my addictions. I quit each and every one of them, cold turkey. I renounced my title as the fast food junkie king. I couldnt do it anymore. I went on a clean organic diet and lost 50 lbs. Most importantly, I have kept it off, thats the key. I got out of my toxic relationship and into a very healthy one. I started praying. I was a new man. There was just one thing still majorly wrong with me. I didnt have that big WHY.

At this point, I was completely broke. Out of the hospital, but broke. I then migrated out west to my birthplace of San Francisco. I needed a place to stay but had no money. I found myself looking at offices, but I have no idea why.

At the end of one office tour, we ended up at some corner of the building and there was some dark corner that had a door. I asked, Hey, Whats that? The lady looked at me like a weirdo and said, nothing, thats just the electrical room where we keep the phone wires for the building.

I said, Can I see it?

Again, she looked at me like a weirdo, but she said sure. The room was the size of a decent walk-in closet. It had no windows, exposed air ducts, and wires all over the place. I told her my situation, that I had no money and I needed a place to stay. I said I am a good person, please help. :)

She agreed! She let me live in the wiring closet! I had nothing there. I had no hot water, no shower, no windows that was my life. If I wanted to shave, I had to warm up some water on a hot plate and hope that the razor was sharp enough to do it. To shower, I got a gym membership for ten bucks a month.

I had to figure out what I was gonna do with my life. So, I did what every logical person does... I went on Craigslist. :) Every day I went and looked and looked and looked for opportunities. One day I found something.

It was this online course. This was almost like divine intervention. I felt like the dude from the Matrix. I saw everything clearly and understood it. I saw why the colors were this way, I saw the emphasis on value, I saw why testimonials were this way instead of that. It all added up to me. And I thought, this is freaking brilliant!

I fell in love instantaneously. I was like, I gotta do this. I gotta make money from this. This is my future!

Now, I didnt have any money. You needed money to join the course and get into training. I was homeless, but the one thing I had to my name was a rinky dinky hooptie car. It was this 1986 Mercedes. You know, like one cylinder. It was the only thing that I had to my name, and I needed it because that back office was in the middle of nowhere. But I sold it. I put in all my chips. I sold the only thing I had left and got $2000 bucks. My people thought I was a nut case, they were like ummm, how are you going to survive now?

I took that and bought into the training. I remember the first month its in the summer, and Im on the phone every day, trying to close the deal. Day in and day out, calls calls calls. I didnt make a single sale, trying to sell mindset training and informational products. I had no car and had no money.

I told myself Im going to make it work. I had no choice but to make it work. I had no sales, and most people give up by this point when they see that they arent making any sales, but I knew that I would be able to make this work.

I was at a crossroads.

I can give up, or I can figure out whats going on.

I knew that I was on the phone with people every day, so I might as well tweak. Started trying different things. The next month, I made my first ever sale. It was 500 bucks. I will never ever forget the feeling. I was not excited, It felt completely normal, as if it was supposed to be this way.

When I went into it, I was all in. There was no turning back. I mean, I sold my car! Its kind of like burning the ships when you get to the shore it gives you that extra motivation.

After that course, I started studying. I had the chance to learn from some of the top earners out there. I also had access to a full library. When I hadnt cared for cracking a book before, I was reading everything on the shelves, thankful for the one-on-one training that I was getting from my new mentors. The next month, I made 2 sales, then 3, then 4. My income started going up. $10,000, $20,000, $30,000.. it was just going up and up..

I was studying what top earners were doing every single day. I was reading about how I could make my business better. I was learning.
