About
I’ve been in the internet marking arena since 2001, I have bought & read plenty of material from authors like Robert Allen, Shawn Casey, Mark Joyner, Joe Vitalie just to name a few… My family has had a very rough time for the past 5 years.. Loss of jobs.. Heart attacks, death’s, incredible debt and those unexpected Gotcha’s that make it even harder to stay focus.
Though the rough times I still would stay up till 5AM every morning (thanks to Dunken Donuts) and work - work – work… trying to figure out ways to produce income from the net. See I didn’t want anyone to build my website, I just didn’t have the capital. So I taught myself HTML… and to make a long, long story short, I am now a certified PHP Developer with 6+ years exp, I have created plenty of ecommerce platforms and sophisticated automation systems you can see my main page @ www.mataka.com. People ask me if I went to school for such and I say NO, I went to work for such ;0)
Any way I have a burning desire and passion to become successful. I started a online retail business in 2006, on a shoe string budget, named www.candyshotglass.com. I produced 5000 Unique visitors and 2k in sales in Dec 2006, I figured yes I found something great and I’m running with it… only to find out my supplier was running out of stock and it takes loads of cash I didn’t have + 3 stinking months to produce more inventory. So I slowed the role to almost kaput…
I listened to plenty of so called “gurus” and “experts” promising to show me ways to make profit on the net… I attended seminars joined lists downloaded 800 e-books and yes, I gained great knowledge and learned how to cut through the bull… but the point is to STOP wasting time and take action now, stop waiting for the train to come pick you up. Gather your resources and run with your passions
See I believe that life isn’t all about money, I believe true wealth is the luxury of time and freedom, That’s based on the hours you spend and what good you do with it. Even though money is a plus… it shouldn’t be the overall ruler of our emotions.
While debt and financial heartache can be cured by money, I believe If you don’t have an alternative motivation (like love for what you do) backed by a strong mindset, family and willpower. Then one can never reach true success or full wealth, because no matter how wealthy one gets
It doesn’t mean that they are full of life.
