I am new to the site. I have two siblings on here already, both for many years, and have found it successful. I am a 45 year old engineer, stuck in a job and town I do not love, and am ready to make some changes. I'm happily divorced, no kids, no dog (!), no spiritual connection, lots of toxic relationships, no lust for life, not even a car that wasn't over 15 years old! Just been letting life happen to me, rather than taking charge of it myself. I used to workout religiously everyday for years, until about 3 months ago. Just got "bored" with it. Then, of course, I started eating, watching TV, sleeping, and generally feeling sorry for myself. Well, no more!

I'm back in the gym, interviewing with rescue shelters for a great dog in need of a good home, bought myself a cool new car (it's "used" but awesome, since I don't believe in buying "new"..waste of money in instant depreciation once you drive it off the lot), am reading a book about Warren Buffet, am painting a couple of rooms in the house, am recommitted to practicing a spiritual program, have updated the resume, and have now joined Warrior Forum.

Would love to hear your stories of encouragement on how you turned things around and got on a new track, personally and/or professionally. Two years ago, I said I would start my own business, but never got started. Well, I have gotten started, so stories of how YOU got started in this area will be equally appreciated, as well. Say "hello". I am not selling anything....yet! LOL

  • Hi, here's my story.

    I was at a dead end job. I had to quit. My job was taking its toll on me. Way too much stress.

    I ended up being unemployed for 2 years (in a bad economy), just doing miscellaneous jobs for anyone who'd hire me. My husband and I remodeled our house ourselves (that we bought in 2008) and sold it for profit in 2011 during this recession. That was a big acheivement.

    During all of this, I came to the idea that I could create an online business. I started off with a blog and now I'm creating my own websites and information products for people to learn from. I have a long way to go because I have goals to the heights of stars, but I am happy to say that I finally see the light and I am accomplishing new goals that I never thought could be, and helping others along the way, which is even more rewarding.

    I always tried to find ways to make money online and then I finally realized I just have to take action. Taking action is number one if you want to make money online. So, I created an ecourse called Blog and Retire because there was nothing out there to tell you what to do, how to do it, and most importantly when to do it. How do you stay focused. You can look up Blog and Retire on google. It will be released by the end of this month. You can subscribe on the blog and retire website to be notified of when it's available. Blog and retire is like a huge 1 hour per day, year-long to-do list that will help people who want to start their own online business and eventually quit their job.

    Super excited for what the future holds, and I'm even more excited to help others accomplish their goals.

    Believe it or not, I only recently came across the warrior forum, I can't believe I've missed it all these years. It's a great place to learn, help others, and be empowered.

  • Lets hear my story: Over years I was really demotivated. I hated everybody and everybody hated me! That was my mentality! Now is everything different. I found a way to get me back on track. It was a book about life and self control. At the end everything is about yourself, If you dont change your mindset nobody will!

    Be Positive!
    Be Proactive!
    Life your Life!

  • Okay, so this looks like the Thread I'll have to revisit here often. I've been online (it seems) forever, but running from solution to shiny object and back again. Have spent literally thousands but in the end have gotten nothing. You know why? Afraid of failure! Hello, doing nothing is the fastest route to failure at ANYTHING. So, now that I have recommitted to getting going, I am starting by just 'doing' things. Though I'm still a little scattered, my situation forces me to get focused. My own fault of course, but our choices are always our own. Even if made at gunpoint! I'll be back.
  • Pretty cool thread...great story share thanks...
  • thanks for the share of great story
  • ...and you wanted MORE out of life!
  • Before i got this online making money. I started as a teacher. Life as a teacher is very challenging. Many times i tried to venture to a new work. But my love in teaching was the reason i stayed. But when i learned about online money making, i tried it... and without any plan, i quit teaching and started work online.



  • It is necessary to change with the time.

    If you are not changing and not updated yourself then it is difficult for you to live in this world.
  • Don't stop blogging! It's nice to read a sane commentary for once. Great post, you've helped me a lot
