Hi;
My name is Lode. I live in Los Angeles, California with my wife and my 2 cats Eezee and Minoo. Together we enjoy a wonderful, happy, successful life. But ..., it wasn't always like that.
It's been said that some people have the Midas touch. You know, anything they lay their hands on turns to gold. I certainly wasn't one of them. In fact, just the opposite was true. Anything I laid my hands on turned to dust.
That's how it used to be. For 15 years I struggled trying to "break through". No matter what I did, I failed. I jumped from one business into another yet success eluded me time and again.
My wife and I argued a lot; almost always about money or at least, the lack there off. These were dark, stressful and tormenting times back then. Yet, I persevered and eventually became very successful. Along the way I learned an awful lot.
The stuff I learned about business, people, money and life in general you can't find in any book and it's not taught in any school. These are the lessons of hard knocks. Lessons that only life can teach you, unless you have a mentor.
With a mentor, success will come a lot sooner. You get to follow a proven path and don't have to figure it all out on your own. I know if I would have had a mentor back then, I would have never spent 15 hard years looking, searching and trying to get success.
With a mentor I would have accomplished my goals in probably 1 or 2 years. A world of difference isn't it?
With your permission I'd like to be your mentor so that you don't stumble and fall the way I did. I want to save you 15 years of trial and error.
It is my wish to help those who are where I once was get to where I am now. Success isn't hard, getting it not knowing how, that's hard.
So, if you're still wondering why I care, eventhough I don't know you? Well, I do know you. I know what it's like to constantly come short. I know all too well the hunting phone calls of bill collectors. I have had many worrysome, sleepness nights.
So as far as I am concerned, I do know you. I know your struggles, I know your pains and I know your frustrations. I know, because I've been there.
Yes, I am successful now. There was a time however when I wasn't. And that's why I know you.
Best Wishes;
Lode

Thank you for this great message.
Yes, thank you to be my mentor.
I've put your blog in my open browser web page. So each time I will open the browser on the web I will read you. I will re-read and re-re-re-re-re-read you... as much as I need to learn and to be enough motivated to keep my focus and to work on one way at the time.
Thank you to be here for us.
