Hey, WA family just wanted to check in and share a few things about my journey the good, bad and the ugly. Like, probably most of you if not all have heard the saying a half of loaf bread is better than nothing at all which I agree to a certain degree. Just to give you guys a brief description of my background and what led me to being an entrepreneur. As, a young man growing up it was a constant reminder go to school get good grades then go college. So having that way of being engraved in my mind at a young age I started to follow suites but as I gotten older that way of life wasn't so appealing. After seeing my mom bust her butt day in day out for 30yrs plus and still working along with health issues due to getting older and wear and tare on the body.

I made a vow to myself and GOD that I would not follow on that same path so I decided to get into sales never sold anything in my life except back in grammar school selling candy that's about it. My first sales job was selling life insurance which I had to obtain my state license in order to sell insurance. I took the state exam a total of three times before I finally passed, paying each time $90 a pop with no income mind you. Once I got my license and training down I hit the ground running making $30,000 in sales after two months of buckling down. That was a big accomplishment for me didn't even know I had a talent for selling.

That's when I knew I had gift for adding value in peoples lives. I stayed in the industry for about 6yrs until I had gotten tired of the 100-hour weeks having the money but being time poor. So I left the corporate world and began researching working from home and I, ve been doing that for about 4yrs now. I've brought a ton of different programs and get rich schemes that of course didn't work, working odd positions to invest and stay afloat even sometimes side tracked from different life situations. I always knew I had the potential to be great and successful although I haven't reached the success that I want and with my determination I certainly will. Your reality is a manifestation of your thoughts if you think you can't then you won't. Never give up believe in yourself and make what's impossible for other possible. Hope this helps someone that might be feeling a little discourage just know it's a part of the process toward your success.

Best Wishes, Antonio
