Kind of a rant but I don’t expect reaction so whatever I’ll try to keep it short.

Army vet moved to bigger area let’s say around dfw radius. Have been selling vintage out my trunk for awhile but my mind finally clicked. I read the right books, went through the hardest time of my life and when people could’ve possiblly un aliv3d themselves i gathered myself together. I read the right books, I started running. Started with 4 miles, 4 months later I finish my first marathon and come in 51st in the city. I finally get the call from a antique mall that they have a booth available. I have X amount of money in my pocket to the point where I started riding the city bike to move around. Riding the bike led me to another opportunity and so and so on. I made connections. I promoted my business at the booth. I get introduced to some people I never thought I’d meet in my life and in my head I know I made it mentally wise. All the seeds I planted are coming together. Just from hardships, military, self doubt you name it. My dreams are coming to life. I don’t even wanna sleep anymore I forget to eat but it’s pay off thank you so much to my friends and network. Please read the following -can’t hurt me by David Goggins

  • rich dad Poor dad by Robert. Kiyosaki -the four agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz -scars and stripes by Tim Kennedy -never finished by David Goggins

This week I honestly felt a happiness that I didn’t know existed. To paint the picture it was the scene from the pursuit of happiness. Keep pushing everyone lock it
