JV Journey 2018 - Year of ACTION

The Year of 2018

2018 was the year of ACTION. If you are passionate enough about wanting to do things differently, you'll figure out ways to do it. I did with the support of my partner, Jamie. This cheesy video I made early in 2018.

CELEBRATE OFTEN

Then in May 2018, I dragged my wife to a mastermind group to the west side of Southern California and paid $1,995

to join a one-day event.

I had no idea what I was doing. That money felt like an expense but I knew it was an investment for our minds. After all, $1,995 is nothing compared to a $60k+ in student loans I acquired to get my 4-year degree.

Within just an hour of attending this mastermind group, I figured out the secret. I asked myself, "How did this guy get all these people from all over the nation to attend this mastermind group? What is it that he has to offer to us 12-people he invited to his $1.5 million dollars home?" As I watched and listened to him speak, it dawned on me. This man is projecting CONFIDENCE.

I told myself, "If he can do it, I can too."

Confidence is a mindset and changing that mindset can be hard. Here is a method that worked for me:

1. Find a rock in your life who has faith in you, someone who has your best interest, and cares for you. Don't give up! Keep searching!

2. Do work on yourself and self-reflection. What led you here? What decisions have you made? What happened in the past that made you do something stupid or hurt you? (It took me many years of hard work in grieving the deaths of our family and on-going work on childhood trauma leading up to this moment.

3. Set boundaries. Work on having good and healthy relationships.

I can name off so many rocks in my life now and I am doing things unimaginable! I want to be that rock in yours. If you are reading this, know that you can always reach out to me for words of encouragement and support in you.
