Now also in my personal life, I all of a sudden had a hard time entertaining women,
which is why I stayed single for so long. You see I was sleeping in my car,
working many other small jobs that I needed to work to gather information on the
things I needed to build my company, and had no where to take them, not to
mention give them enough time to make them feel wanted. Even when I would
meet a woman and tell her what I was trying to do, she would look at me like I had
shit on my face and tell me to call them when I had things more together because
I must be crazy or took too much or not enough medication for the day. It was
demoralizing because I start thinking I might have read too much into the movie,
and that maybe I was going a bit too far on many occasions. But I knew this wasn’
t a gamble, but once again, if you couldn’t see what I was seeing and I completely
understand how back then you could not, you wouldn’t understand where I was
going or trying to get to. That is also where my squad or crew came into play.
Why I don’t use the word friends lightly, and how engulfed I am with the people I
know I can trust, because they believed in me at times I didn’t believe in what I
was doing. My friends now that I take care of and will continue to do as long as I
am able, supported me unconditionally and was there for me in ways I could
never repay to them or even describe to you. They brought me food when I was
hungry, put gas in my car, provided me with words of encouragement and kept
me from the atmospheres that could possibly derail me from my soon to be
purpose in business. So now I am working, working not only hard on my ideas,
but efficiently because I started to form a team that was proficient in things I had
no idea about. We would sit and talk, converse and bounce these crazy ass ideas
off of each other, and put into play the things we knew we could connect to make
what we was doing, ever so powerful and needed. We simply start controlling the
things we were creating, and even though we all were still broke, we had
something much more valuable than money, we had and had learn the ability to
make it for others. So we kept investing in each other. Transferring funds,
supporting strategies, innovating ideas and more off of each other and kept
pulling each other up once one of us climbed up another stair on the ladder to
success. But here is the deal, we did this quietly, like the people the entertainers
needed to invest their hard earned money did. We weren’t gambling on anything,
nor did we take risk. We would go into deals as a third party and only make a
profit if the people or companies we worked with, did. You can basically say that
we were working off of commission, but what took the cake was that we took the
gamble part of it, out of it. The companies we dealt with became partners with us
and we didn’t do business with anyone unless we had the solution or way to make
a profit before we did it. You see what became very apparent to me in the
process of processing all of this is this, there is a need that is not discussed by
many when starting and operating a business. You see the title or label of being a
“Consultant” is a very vague and broad title. It can mean any and everything to
many people, but what it means to me is fix-it-person that is un-bias on anything
but business. You see if you know it or not, when things go astray or problem
needs to be fixed outside of the company or fabric on how the company is built,
the company needs an avenue to travel down. Many see Tiger Woods, Oprah
Winfrey or LeBron James as very successful people at the top of the financial
food chain and my goodness they are in some respects, very much so. But what
gets lost is that even though they are getting these mega million dollar
endorsement deals and treated as rare jewels presented to us by the media,
someone is cutting them a check, and that’s who I need to work for, the one
cutting the check, not the ones necessarily getting them. That’s where the movie
Wall Street came in, and me finding my niche in that market. Instead of dealing
with many companies that may need what we have to offer, I felt that me and my
team would better serve our clients by concentrating on them for the long term,
not the quick fix on low ticket items. That’s also when and where the marketing
ploy came in for me, not worrying about how much money I made for myself or
team, but how much we made for those employing our services. If we took care
of them, form a relationship with them and more, they will make sure me and my
team are well taken care of and allowed to roam within the world to create more
for me and my team with people we would not normally have a chance to meet.

There are many things I can say about myself, but what I know many will say
about me, is that. That’s the essence and core of me. Now yeah don’t get me
wrong, many will say a lot more for whatever reasons, but I promise you this, they
will say that. I have seen and been through so much thus far in my life, that I am
not trying to prove or convince anyone any more, I am simply contributing through
my efforts in a unconditional way, because I can, want and able to. I have been
there and back and more than sure I will go back and forth many more times
before I die, so I know I don’t know it all. I only know what I know, and think what I
think, because that is all I know, just like you. So yeah to me, being smart enough
to know how dumb you are, is very important! I think I have been to hell and
heaven on earth in black limo’s and white lies, and drove when I show have been
a passenger, and a passenger when I should have never been in the dam car in
the first place.. I am perfectly flawed, and I am only doing what I do, because I
think it is right, even when it might not be to you at the time and the way you are
looking at it. But those I communicate with weekly at least, are very very
important to me. I love these people for who they are, and if you in my opinion can
at least have two or three of these people in and at different stages of your life,
you are extremely blessed. If you can say that you do know of people that are in
your life like this, you can honestly say, "someone really loves you for you". And
you should if you have not already, tell them often, you really appreciate the
contribution they have contributed to your life and what it is and will become
because of them in the aftermath. These people are the core of you, and if nothing
else, I feel everyone should have the pleasure to have at least three or four people
in their life before they die, and I have about fifty and I am still alive. In a very odd
way, I realize and know that its even impossible for me to even thank them for
what they have done for me, and I wouldn’t insult them by asking them what they
want from me. I would never ask," what do I owe you" because if I am the man
and person I think I am and becoming because of them, I will never allow them to
get in a place that will harm or hurt them so I need to come to their rescue or have
them ask. I am deeply going way beyond money or a materialistic pay back, these
are those people that were meant to be in your life, and you accepted them and
what they were all about, unconditionally. So I write or contact them in one way or
another at least once a week, to give to them, my appreciation for them for being
who they were and are to me each and every day, even if I don’t a chance to
speak or communicate with them. We all have people like this if we know it or
not, and we balance them in such a way, that we are able to give to whatever
element that recycles something we feel is comfortable, and feel good about
doing it. Those of you that regularly read me all over the world, might or might not
know a little about what I am talking about, because I mention them in many of my
writings / theories. But those that have been with me through this textual journey
on the surface where I really spill my guts on a table the size of your computer
screen, might be a little bit lost right now. But don’t worry and sit back and enjoy
this theory, and you will start to get a glimpse on what I am writing about today,
well, right now. You know if you know it or not, when you do what I am doing right
now, it gives you this euphoric release. It is a freedom I can not really explain
when you become enslaved into it, and the joy and pains of life and dealing and
living inside of it, makes you really smile when you would normally frown. And
when most things, not all things, but when most things happen, it doesn’t really
sway you one way or another because you are looking at the things you have
done and seeing the results, if you select to believe them or not. I love putting my
heart and soul on the table for the world to view and sometimes feed upon, so if
never before, really try to understand what I am talking about right now. Now I
read many if not all of the emails I get daily, and really thank all of you for your kind
words. The thing I mostly get are short theories from you my viewers saying<
"right on oint" or " I am a deep thinker". I would say thank you, but it is not for me
to thank you, it is those that made me who I am now. You see many don’t know
that there is this very deeply intimate personal side in me, that is so dam
passionate, that it might scare you when you are deeply involved with me. I am
mildly intense, and very very laid back.
