I was professional dancer in my late 20's
who started teaching privately for about $75 and hour and then
went on own and operate dance schools for the next 15 years .
Even though I was free of a 9-5 slave job and a boss telling me
what to do, I was a slave to my own business working like a dog
close to 12-18 hours a day just to make ends meet. I had freedom
but never enough money or time to enjoy it with. The best thing
that came out if was that I was able to do what I loved in life
which at the time was dancing and that I was able to accumulate
enough money to eventually buy and own my own apartment in New
York City.
But looking back, I never thought to myself that I would ever
be struggling that hard to earn a living or make money. I just
thought it would happen somehow differently certainly having more
fun. How silly I was to think that it would just somehow happen
without ever knowing how.
I still believe that being self-employed or owning a small business
is certainly better than working for someone else but in terms
of ever being truly wealthy, there are great limitations. One
can only teach so many clients and for so many hours in the day.
I realized that I needed to somehow own a big business and that
would allow me to involve other people making money for me and
with me. Trouble was I didn’t have the money to initially
start one up nor did I have a rich family to inherit one from.
Now during my dancing days, one of my students had introduced
me to way of owning a business that nearly anyone could do, that
didn’t require any big financial investment, and that had
an unlimited income potential. What most attractive me was that
I could work from home, choose my own hours,and most of all that
I could have a residual income that would keep coming even if
I wanted to leave to a break from my business for a while.
Ever since I learned about this business I had dabbled in it and
was able to even earn enough money to pay my monthly mortgage.
I have never had any doubts that I could make as much money as
I was willing to commit to and as fast as I was willing to build
it. I think my biggest mistake has been that I haven't thought
big enough in terms of my wealth potential until now.
In fact I recently registered a domain name called, NextStopWealth
com. That’s because I’m on a high speed train whose
next stop is Wealth. I am determined to become truly wealthy and
to live the lifestyle that I deserve to live. I am worth it! My
goal is to making at least a quarter of a million dollars each
year in the next 3 years and to own another piece of real estate
in New York City, as well as a home beautiful Hawaii.
