Hey Warriors ! There are many of you I know have followed my journey over the last 8 months both in here and over at my personal blog. Well as the title of this thread states I have some AMAZING and mega EXCITING news to share ... ....... I just handed in my notice of resignation to quit my job and become a full time internet marketer !!!!!!! I am buzzing with excitement.. I cant believe Im doing this but heck Im sure as hell gunna make sure I make a success out of my life Dont get me wrong, Im not making mega amounts of cash right now but next month I launch my first product to the market which I intend to help others get to where I am at so I want to give to those people 110% ... I guess what I want to say here is ANYONE can do this ! If you are sat thinking perhaps it cant be done... You may think you cant make good money online and live your dreams .... YOU CAN !! Just 8 months back I had no website, no blog, I didnt even own Aweber to begin building a list. Today I sit here with a blog that has over 1500 comments, 2 ebooks I wrote myself which have had nearly 1800 downloads and have made around $10,000 online But most of all at the end of this month I will be my own boss !!!! I cant emphasise this enough Warriors.... If you want this, and I mean REALLY want this you CAN do it ! What does it take ?? WORK ... WORK ... and more WORK ! This is not get rich quick, it is get rich forever ! Do you think 8 months of consistant regular work is worth it ? To make 1000's online and quit your job ?? I sure as hell do... There were times I felt I couldnt do it but I stuck at it ! YOU can do this my friend, you just gotta work Best of luck, hope this inspires someone to do what I have done Dean |

Well done man. It takes balls to do what you've done. I took that step few years ago and I was DAMN proud of myself - I am sure you're all puffed up now: you've showed courage and you've jumped off the cliff. Trust me if I say that the majority of the people never get that far. Quoting Mark Twain: in 20 years time you'll regret more the things you didn't do, than those you did do and failed... so go give it a shot for Pete's sake! (the last bit is my own). |

Thanks a lot guys !! Look... something I didnt mention in my post first time round... I am SCARED as hell, Im taking a HUGE risk BUT ... I have faith in what I am doing... If I didnt then I shouldnt be here right ??!! My excitement however for doing this FAR exceeds my being scared... I guess its natural to feel this way when you step so far out of your comfort zone. I just hate to see people talk about giving it up or saying it cant be done... PLEASE take big note of what I have done here ... YOU can do this, ask anyone that has done it and Im sure they will say the same Thank you once again for your great comments, means a lot to me ! Dean |

Congrats and I'd like to add... ...that everyone that is going to quit their job must be damn sure they can create income on demand or have already created some sort of steady income stream to replace their job's income and benefits. My advice is to have that steady stream of income at least 6 months in a row before someone quits their job. Once again, congrats are in order. All The Best To You & Yours! TL |

Good for you Bro, Did same thing in 2004. Men, nothing like being your own boss. I have met greatmen and women on this journey. I have travelled far and near. I have contributed and still contributes my little skills and influence to encourage thousands of people across the globe. ...All because I Fired my Boss A Few Years Ago... Good luck to those who intend to do the same but be ready for sleepless nights, confusion, discouragement, fear, doubt, failure, rising and falling and finally smiles when you go to your bank or cut a cheque for someone and making people feel good because of your success. Once again goodluck to you fellas. |

Congratulations and good luck; owning and doing your business is a full time job compared with easy 9 to 5. However, the best benefit is that you are your own boss. I wish you the best and hope you enjoy this endeavor.

Great work Dean, now that you have made the commitment to apply yourself full time watch your business grow! The key to getting this far is having "something" drive your desire to grow your income to the point (and beyond) where you need it to be to go full time. Most people have not made it a MUST to get to this point in their life. Sure, they would LIKE to or really WANT to or WISH they were at this stage, but unless you make it a MUST - it's just not going to happen. What is it for you Dean that made it a MUST in your life...what was your big reason why? Jeff |

| You know Dean I am now where you say you were 8 months ago. No website, no blog, and no way to capture emails... There so many things out there right now promising riches and "THE IM LIFE" I have bought course after course to only find one or two helpful nuggets, but these nuggets left me more confused then when I started. When I read post like this it gives me hope that it is possible to have a successful IM business. Some of us newbie’s don’t want a hand out... Well, I can only speak for myself. I don’t want a hand out I just need a hand up! I have idea after idea but can't always put all the pieces together. I plan to figure it all out! That’s for sure. I am so happy to read such excitement in your post, your excitement makes me excited! Dean, congrats on your success! I know you may not be any where near where you want to be, but I can tell by the faith and confidence you have in your abilities it will not take you long to make "IT" happen! Thanks for sharing! |

Rock on dude! I have been on my own since 2005 now. Something to keep in focus: I call it the 3 L's to success. 1) Life 2) Lifestyle 3) Legacy Your first priority is to create a revenue stream that will produce the money to pay the bills. To take care of your life's expenses. Put the blinders on until you hit that goal. Then, once you do that, you can now focus on the second L. For many people this means different things. What do you want? Do you want more time off, awesome trips, etc... Go for that goal. Then, the third L is about giving back. Making more money than you can ever spend and showering the world with that abundance. That my friend is where the real fun begins! Hoped that helps and MASSIVE GOOD LUCK! I'm here if you need anything. |

Jeff, You are so right, but what advice would you have for a beginner who has the "WANT TO". I know if you have a big enough reason you will make it happen... At this point I have nothing to invest and I am confused as to which niche to get into so developing my own product is out of the question if I don’t even know how to promote someone else's. I am willing to put the in the work. Working for me is not the problem for me, but getting the information I need is... I am even interested in the offline arena. I just need some direction. | |

Congratulations. I went full time about 3 weeks ago. I wasn't quite financially prepared to do so but I had other reasons that I had to quit and decided that instead of hunting for another job, I'd put 100% of my focus on my IM business. It's a great feeling but really really scary at the same time. |

There is NO (again: NO) way to be a really successful IM and have a full-time job at the same time. It needs 100% dedication, motivation and work. It will pay off, sooner or later, and you will laugh remembering your old 7am-3pm job, usually |

All those people who have been saying, 'Don't give up your day job' or 'wait until you have been equaling your wages for 9-12 months before quitting your job'. It's amazing. Just do it. If you hate your job AND your boss then you basically hate your life. Whats the point in living like that? Better to try and fail than continuing to live your life in misery. Go for it. He who dares wins. | |

Congrats Dean, You are right in that almost everyone can get to the same position you have. However, they have to be willing to put in the work. And you do that by FOCUS, FOCUS, FOCUS AND MORE FOCUS. And until I did that I was only making a part time income. Now I make more money monthly, month in and month out, than I ever made in a 9 to 5 job. Several people in this thread have asked how to get there, when they don't have any money to invest in creating their own product. Take the time to discover what you can do and offer that as a service to other marketers and even in the offline world. And by the way stop jumping from one system to another. Find the one you are comfortable with and focus on it. In other words put what you learned to work for you. Then grow your business step by step. Ken The Old Geezer |
