TRAPPED!

Hoping for help as I'm just (as the title of thread says)....TRAPPED! I lost my job after many (MANY) years and am now up against the 8 ball! I can't find a job nor do I want to work for someone else again either but I'm stuck!

I read these forums and see many good ideas (offline and online) by people who are really doing it and "fake it till you make it" types of people. It seems so many try to prey on people like me (I'm NOT easy prey!) with continued offers of riches, "now what's your credit card number?"

There are some that genuinely want to help here but most want to line their pockets with WSO's and/or consultation services, at best. I understand IF you are successful, your time is money but it's difficult because a lot of these guys are full of $hit to being with!

How in the hell are YOU going to make ME money if you can't even do it yourself!

I'm a smart and professional guy trying to get through this "transition" phase of my life and move onward and UPWARD to a place that I KNOW is waiting for me!

Can somebody......ANYBODY (and I'm talking legit successful) PLEASE point me in the right direction? I'm smart AND tech savvy and ready to take action but I clearly need direction.

Is there a REAL coach who has produced REAL results for REAL people anywhere to be found????

  • No, everyone is a fake.

    Look, don't buy WSOs if you don't want to. Nobody is forcing you to.

    There are plenty of completely FREE ideas and techniques here, which you can find using the Search option. But you have to get specific first. If you jump around, from thing to thing, hoping the next great idea will work, you won't get anywhere.

    What skills do you have? How can you create value for other people?

    • Jason, I read your stuff and believe you are one of the exceptions here but let's be honest, there are a LOT of people here trying to line their pockets based on what they WISH to achieve rather then what they have actually achieved.

      I know my post is coming of as negative but it's really more from a point of frustration. Again, I have no problem paying someone for their time if they can actually DELIVER results (and no, I don't expect people to do it for me).

      I would love to be someones "case study".

  • It doesn't matter how bad you need or want it, the same rules apply in your situation. You said you've read a lot on the forums.

    1. Find a method of making money

    2. Take action

    3. Learn from taking action

    4. Take action better than last time with your new knowledge, repeat until you've made money.

    The take action part is beaten to death on this forum, but the in between of taking action ------ failing, you learn ALOT and each time you can build on those lessons you learned and do better next time. I'm sure this isn't the advice you wanted to hear, but that's how it works.

    You say you're ready to take action, but it sounds like you're just waiting for the answer to fall in your lap. You would've done something by now with all the info on this forum.
  • Any of us that are putting out products and are successful doing what we teach are going to want your money in exchange for help. We are businesspeople. There's no way we're going to spend any significant personal attention on someone without being paid for it whether or not they make it a success.

    Pick one of those things you want to do and do the best research you can on who are the experts are. Look for legit testimonials and feedback. If they seem to be trustworthy enough, contact them and ask what it would cost to pick their brain for an hour or so.

    • I TOTALLY get that and respect it. In fact, I would never expect otherwise.

  • There are a few coaches here that can help. Heck, I have helped a few people go to 6 figure businesses starting with nothing, but it wasn't me that made them do it.

    Your issue isn't that you need a coach. You're wanting to be pointed in the right direction but it is you who needs to identify what direction you want to go. What interests you? What is your goal? What do you WANT out of this? If you were to find a legit coach, what would you want to get out of that? If it is just about money.... there are countless threads that will show you how to make money.. it rarely is about money though.

    A coach isn't going to produce real results for you...It isn't up to them. That's a big problem I would say 90% on this forum have. Nobody can produce real results for you except yourself. Accept that fact and you'll start being in a better position than the people still looking for someone to give them a shortcut.

    There are no short cuts. Nothing is easy. It NEVER is easy. The idiots that claim something is easy probably don't do it. Easy should not be in your lexicon. There are difficulties at every level. You just get through it to the next level of difficulties. If something is easy, then you haven't reached your potential, or even close.

    • See, that's the irony. I get that fact. I TOTALLY understand that it is ALL about taking action and most unsuccessful people (here and otherwise) usually won't.

      What I want/need is direction!

      Out of the things I listed above that interest me, let's take for example, local lead generation.

      If I were to say to a coach, "Ok, I'm interested in doing something with local lead generation but don't know where to start, guide me", I would (at least hope) to get the proper direction and start implementing said strategies.

      Sure, I can research and ask questions but sometimes, due to the overwhelming amount of information, you tend to get frustrated and never find the answers you're looking for. I know I'm probably making this more complicated then it needs to be but again, it's just very frustrating.

  • 5 Things You Need To Do To Get What You Want:
    1. Set a clear outcome or intension of where you want to be in 90 days.
    2. Write it down and make sure it is written in a way that is so clear to you, you know you will achieve your outcome.
    3. Make a list of every resource you have available to help you reach your goals.
    4. Make a list of everything you don't have yet, but will help you attain your goals if you had the resources.
    5. Construct a Meta Strategy...a 'big picture' plan to impliment so that you will reach your outcome. Then...a Micro Strategy for all the steps you need to do in order to implement your strategy.

    Once you outline your outcome desired and strategy, choose a company that will support your goals. Look at the leadership, mentorship and training.
