There will be lessons on the road to living your dreams, some that may guide you in paths you never imagined you'd travel down.
I launched my real estate career by building over 100 homes in the new construction business, then decided it was time to become a Realtor. Learning curves and lessons included, I grew to operate at the top level selling over 100 homes per year. Sure enough I burnt myself out.
I decided to successfully sell my business to Coldwell Banker in 2000 and began coaching top Realtors from the US and Canada. Having the building experience I also became a coach to investors in commercial and residential real estate as well.
I was devoting so much of my time to real estate. Business was my life. I yearned for a more leveraged income. Like most of us out there I wanted to be super successful, but still have a balanced life. I wanted more time with my family. I wanted more flexibility.
The 2007 and 2008 real estate market devastated us and pretty much cut off all of our income and placed us into a huge hole- another casualty of the market.
In 2008 we were given the opportunity to become involved in a network marketing company. After 16 months of building, my wife and I went full time into the industry.
I love learning, reading, traveling, interviewing experts and being a sponge. I never want to stop learning. Because of my drive and unquenchable thirst for knowledge I have pushed forward as a top industry earner.
With the support of my family, my wife and I travel the world spreading the opportunity of wealth and health, and the knowledge and experience I have gained along the way.
Often times we find ourselves miles away from our home in Newport, RI - meeting new friends, launching new territories, experiencing new cultures, and enjoying every minute of it. I want to share our life lessons with you as we experience them in hopes of passing on some wisdom, some laughs, and inspiration.
May you too enjoy the leveraged, flexible, satisfying, eye opening lifestyle of living your passion to the fullest.Thank you to my wife Kim, and my children Nick and Kayla for coming with me on this journey. You're a wonderful family and I'm so happy we're sharing this experience together.
