What would you do if you knew you could not fail?

Hi Everyone,
I'm sure you have heard that question many times as have I.
That came to my mind this evening (Philippines time).
I am generally an easy going guy. I've had a very interesting life. Self employed for most of it. 8 years in the USMC. Lived in 4 different countries.
I prefer to collect memories/experiences and not things.
I love helping others.
When I was divorced in 2012, I had to work around the clock for 2 years so I could save my money and build a passive income so I could move to the Philippines from the USA.
Once here, I did not want to work even though my income was insufficient to support myself. So I lost 85 lbs that I didn't need and that felt good.
My 2nd year here and I was in a relationship with Wen who was a member of WA last year and so I worked to where we could be comfortable. She was also working and even got 2 years of college before Melissa Jeane came into our lives.
Melissa Jeane has been and continues to be a game changer for me.
With far more years behind me than ahead of me, I often just didn't care much for what's going to happen. No one lives forever and I'll admit I focus on the negative far too much sometimes.
With Melissa Jeane in the picture, I want to be here for her as long as I can and teach her as best I can while I can including homeschooling her.
I can't put my finger on it for sure. Maybe it was all the time I had to think while I was sick for 7 months with Long Term Covid, but I find myself wanting more.
Time to really listen to my own words for a change.
"Anything Is Possible! There are No Limits! I can be as Successful as anyone else."
But have I really, truly believed those words or have I been giving them lip service?
So with the AI training I have been taking from another program it has got me to thinking about how to move my businesses forward. So I have been visualizing and seeing where I would like to go.
I got to tell you. I am seeing a much bigger picture now. More possibilities. I see how AI can leverage my time and resources to fast track my businesses. It's always a challenge when you are a One person business. Right Jeff? ;-)
From 1 website, I am now looking at probably 4 websites and 2 Youtube channels. If you are new, stick to your one website for a year or more before branching out. For me, this will not be much of a challenge as I can talk and/or type away all day/night long.
I need to prioritize the steps to take so its all in a logical order and building on and supporting the whole.
So what would I do if I knew I could not fail?
My plan is in 2 years maximum, aiming at 1 year preferably to double my income and then to proceed to double it again. I most likely will double my books in print aiming at 2,500 published books and 1000 ebooks along with training courses.
So to say that I am going to be busy is an understatement and I still need to balance Family in the equation.
I'm guessing that I will stay active on WA, because honestly some WA members truly inspire me and that can rub off on me all it wants to. :-)
So let's get going!
To Our Success!

Very awesome, indeed, Mel! Being a one person business has its perks, but it also has a lot of hardships too, but then you already know that too!
Best success going forward!
Semper Fi!

Hi Mel. If I could do something that I knew would not fail there would be two things I would do.
1. End all wars.
2. Make sure everyone in the world had a roof over their head and enough food to eat.
Simple to type but not so easy to achieve!
Have a lovely day - here's to our success ;-)

Sure, Frank. Hopefully one day we will but I fear not in our lifetimes. There are too many corrupt and nasty people in the world for this to happen just yet.
Maybe one day the meek will inherit the earth - not just yet though sadly. I see no signs of this happening in our current world and what's going on right now.
Have a great day.

Very sad but true, Paul.
Still, each person can make a small difference for the better. 😎
Frank 🤘🎸
One small act of kindness can make a massive difference to someone's life Frank.
Just something small like a smile that costs nothing can make that person happy if they feel lonely.
Gotta dash as work to be done.

If you have a vision to end all wars, make sure Donald Trump gets voted into the next US election. He is best friends with Putin and is the only leader of any country to have actually visited and walked into North Korea.
When Donald Trump was in power in the US, it was the only time in US history that the USA was not fighting any wars with any country.
I am in the UK, maybe you are too?

Just a smile Paul can save someone's life if they are depressed and suicidal and they see someone "sees" them as a person.

Are you referring to the New World Order?
I am not sure if we want that or not?
That is why the UK left Europe, European Union was telling us what to do and it was costing the UK a fortune to belong to the club known as Europe.

You are fortunate because you are making a good plan and following it. That's a good step in the direction of knowing you can't fail.
I guess it depends on your definition of failure. In my case, I have already succeeded because I am doing what I want to do and it's given me a worthwhile purpose for these senior years when I'm heading for the sunset. I'm not working to make a fortune. I just enjoy writing and creating something that others might like. Nope, I can't fail.
Thanks for sharing Fran!
