I found the best online business training I still can't believe it !
It was 6:53 am and I decided to head home.
It was yet another beautiful sunrise
At that moment I felt so lucky to get to go home while everybody else was getting ready to go to work
However I my happiness was short-lived
You see, I had just finished a gruelling 13 hour shift, driving overnight for Uber.
I made $87.13 that night….way short of my goal of $100.
I still had to take out gas, tolls and food
“ this no way to live”, I thought to myself, “ I am a trained professional chef, what am I doing out here?”
As a kid growing up in the UK I always dreamt of having my own business one day,
“yeah somewhere someday I'll be rich”
So what happened?
Life I guess….
Got married and started a family
When my wife left me after 21 years of marriage.
I was devastated.
Anyway after my divorce, I decided i didn't want to cook any more, my head just wasn't in the right place and my health was beginning to suffer.
“Almost 40 years in hot, sweaty is kitchens enough for one lifetime”, I told myself
Besides, driving was easy money right?
Wrong mate!!!
It was bloody hard work (excuse my language).
Long hours and not making enough to pay my bills,
ya know what I mean?
My house was in foreclosure and had creditors calling me.
I had 2 cars repossessed,
the stress was killing me.
I could not afford a car so I rode a bicycle to work everyday 20 miles round trip
One night while watching tv
Suddenly, my eyes got really blurry.
The next day my mouth was so dry it felt like I had cotton balls in my mouth.
I started to lose weight rapidly
I was constantly peeing and always thirsty.
Something is wasn't right
I checked in at the Orlando community health clinic because I had no health insurance.
The next 2 hours waiting to find out what was wrong was excruciating.
They did blood test and took my took my blood pressure
I remember the doctors words as if it was a movie….. I was told I had High blood pressure and was pre diabetes.
I was shocked
It got to me
I was really scared
I realized if didn't do something……...if I wasn’t the agent of change in my life,
I would go the rest of my life with the lingering sense that I am not doing what i was put on this earth to do
I would go on living with that soft but certain voice in my head reminding me day after day that I'm not happy with my life.
I couldn't stomach that
I was nearing 60 years old and no savings for retirement
How would i support myself, I had no family here just my son who I’m supporting
The sedentary life style of driving the past several years had damage my health
I immediately stopped driving Uber
Got a job as a chef despite knee and back pain
Took my medication and cleaned up my diet and improve my health
I knew I had to do something else.
I wanted to work from home or anywhere in the world….
so it had to be online!
Working as a chef is demanding and I wasn't sure how long i was able to do it
Anyway things were starting to improve for me….
Then covid hit.
I went from working 5-6 days a week to -3-4 days a month
My savings were completely gone
I had to find a way to make money
I looked online for a business I could start, it took months of staying up late night after night.
Finally i found this weird video online that changed everything for me,
I began to feel hope and purpose again and no,
I don’t have a 2m dollar mansion or a Rolls Royce
But I feel life should be about happiness and giving back, and that’s what I’m going to do!!!
This change was only possible because of that one short video I happened to watch…..
Still kinda boggles my mind…
I feel like a new person now,
We all deserve to be happy in life and that's what I'm going after.
Not to mention my relationships and friendships are flourishing in a way that I've never experienced in my life before
So at this point of my journey
Im hoping to give back to others by showing exactly how I did it
and here's the cool part,
I’d like to share the exact same video with you right now…..
