Taking the leap.
Most Popular Reply

@Michael Webster My approach may have been different but what helped me/ let me know it was time to take the next leap was I read and listened to so much information that I started to see the connection and basic methods all ran together. I dragged my feet for weeks and weeks before but then I just faced the reality that the sooner I start the sooner I'll reach my end goal/dream.
You're going to have bumps and bruises and I was at the point where I was ready to learn all my tough lessons to get them out the way. So many things pushed me, my mom getting older, my son getting older, good jobs becoming less and less available and I honestly said I F it. Now or never. Who else is going to make it happen for my family but me. I sat and talked with an unofficial mentor in my area who is killing it.
I'm also a man of faith so I listened to a good sermon TD Jakes preached about Faith over and over...I started to learn it word for word but it became engraved into my own belief. You cannot fail if you never give up.
Hope that helps some but keep surrounding yourself with people who overly optimistic...trust me it'll rub off on you.
