The Personal Trek of Eric P. Martin

I’m at the Hollywood Grill on North Ave & Ashland. I just finished a class at the Learnapoluza. I spent an hour just walking around Bucktown. A lonely moment. It made me ponder more about what I want and how I should be spending my time.
On my walk to the train, I start to notice the same people. We begin to say “good morning” to each other, without even knowing each others name. But the cycle becomes uncomfortable for me. I want so badly to stop it.
I look at all the people on the train with me. We all see
like living dead. I see not one single smile.
It’s 7:00 am and I’m getting ready for work. Testing the Wordpress app for blogging on my Iphone.
Over the weekend, I watched a few videos on network marketing. One of the heavy hitters in the industry quoted something from Tony Robbins. To paraphrase it, it was that we already have inside of us what we need to reach our full potential. With that said, I’m making a commitment tonight to reach my full potential to become a full-time forex trader. I must. My other part-time job will be ending in seven weeks and is already showing the signs of diminishing sales. I have to replace that income with my trading account. Now is the time.
7:40 a.m.
It’s been an incredible week. For the last few nights, I’ve been barely able to keep my eyes open at my second job at night. Lucky, we have only eight weeks left in the campaign. From one job, I go distribute my business cards. I pass out in 2 1/2 hours about 500 cards per day.
The weekends are going to be the only time I have to write. When I get home, I fall asleep immediately. I’ve got a lot to accomplish this weekend. I’ll be publishing a lot of content this weekend. I want to start working on my other blog.
Yesterday I went to look at some backpacks at a wholesale store on 18th & Western. After talking with the guy who owned the store, I thought much about what he said. “Where are you going to sell them?” “The Internet, Craigslist,” I confidently told him. After thinking about all that he said for an hour or two, I decided that the energy I would have put into selling backpacks at a flee market or on Craigslist, I’ll put that energy into building my network marketing business.
I’m numb right now. It’s seems I’ve been doing hard labor on the chain gang. I had thought about riding my bike to work but the travel time would be just too much. I can only imagine how long it would take to ride downtown. Probably 1 1/2 hours.
Becoming wealthy is no easy task. I suppose this is why there is so few that are. I realized that it requires a lot of labor, time, and patience. This is why getting rich quick doesn’t work. It like someone having a newborn and wanting them to instantly become a teenager missing all the years inbetween. It not natuarlly possible for anything to surpass its time in growth, wealth included.
This is the day I’ve been waiting for. I’m going to test out my theroy to achive financial independence. And it happened on the day I received my bi-weekly check.

I need a backpack, but don’t want to pay too much. Thought about selling backpacks, which lead to the idea of learning the import business.
