Chasing The Dream

 

What Is Your Dream?

Everyone has a dream they want to achieve, whether it's becoming a doctor, lawyer, Ceo of a large company or something as simple as living on a sailboat taking people out on fishing trips.

My dream is to become a legit Mobster.  Not someone who breaks the law to earn money. But someone who is predatory capitalist or entrepreneur vigilante.

I like to watch gangster movies, Goodfellas, Menace to Society, and Heat. But I also like to watch inspiring movies like Be Cool, Beauty Shop, and  Harriet.  What can you learn from these movies?  A Lot!

What is there to learn from Goodfellas?  Team of trusted and loyal people. Don't disrespect people or kill people, in other wares don't burn bridges that you will regret later.  Always stick to a code of ethics and never stray from this code.

What is there to learn from Harriet?  Fight for what you believe in.  Achieve it or die. Lead by example. There is a lot more to learn from this movie, that I haven't listed.

Why did I only talk about Goodfellas and Harriet?  Most people want to be the successful gangster getting away with crime and living the high life.  But few people are willing to risk life and limb and run into the frey, for there Dream.

How Can I Start Today?

You want to be a successful writer.  How can you start today?  Research your favorite writers and see how they got started.  Get a notebook or pull out your laptop, sign up for a free blog site and start writing about whatever it is you want to write about.

How do I start to become a Legit Mobster?  First I must define what that means to me.  What is a Legit Mobster?  This is a person that lives by a code of ethics, no amount of money could ever get this person to betray this code.  

Dedicated to increase his income and helping others do the same.  A Mobster is a gangster entrepreneur or Tycoon.   He helps people build empires and those people help him put business that do their customers, employees and tax payers wrong, out of business. Also known as a entrepreneur vigilante.

Back to the question; how can I start today?  Well in my case I have already started a long time ago. I started by studying industries that I know have made people rich and wealthy.  Those industries are Real estate investing, starting a business, and investing in the stock market.  

Pick one of these industries and get started.

Who Can Help You?

You want to start a restaurant. But you don't know the first thing about starting a restaurant. What do you do?  Find a successful  Mom and Pops restaurant in your area and apply to work there until they hire you. Then learn as much as you possibly can and save as much money as you can.

When the student is ready the teacher will appear. Is that statement true? I find it to be true, based upon my own life experiences.  Years ago, I had this How to start an Ebay store CD-Rom. This was before Youtube. 

One night I decided to do it. I had a drop shipper and so I followed the instructions and posted a few items for sell.  Sometime after I started,  I had made a few sells. Not enough to live off of. But enough to keep me working at it. 

Then one day I get an order and the supplier was out of that item. So I had to refund their money.  That messed with me. That and not knowing what I was doing I had relist all of the not sold items and now owned Ebay $300 in listing fees.  I shut down my ebay store in frustration.  

Sometime after I shut down my Ebay store, I got this post card in the mail, to an internet business seminar, the first 100 people who sign up get a free laptop. Free food was also at this event which who doesn't like free food? I attend with in the first 30 minutes I was sold on their software.  The problem I had with Ebay their software solved it.  Their program connected the supplier with the store, so when a product was out of stock it was automatically taken off the market.

I bought their program and was back at it with an online store and a new supplier.  But there was a problem after my website was live I got no sales.  Me not having a mentor or some kind of guidance. I had given up do to the wrong mindset. 

Back then I didn't know who I wanted to be.  I just knew I wanted to be rich and starting a business was one of those ways to achieve that.

The Small Daily Habits 

Body Builders must work out 2 to 5 hours and eat a certain diet every 2 to 3 hour everyday for a few years before ever entering a competition.  There daily habits give them the chance to win Mr Olympia or Mr Universe.

What small daily habit must I develop to achieve my dreams?  Mobster are known for having cash flow.  I must focus on getting my cash flow up.  What is cash flow?  There are two types of cash flow one is active like a job or a side hustle. Two is passive like rental property or dividend paying stock or equity funds. 

First thing is first, get a study paying job or work for one of those apps that allows you to make your own schedule, or do both.  Then find a monthly dividend paying investment that you can automate and grow your residuals. Once one doesn't have to worry about paying living expenses one is free.  

Once you have completed the above, now you must pick one of the three real estate, stock or start a business, and begin to read, take course, find a mentor. Basically study the niche and develop the habits needed to be successful within that niche.

The Addict 

Drug addict will do just about anything to get their fix. Even if it means risking their lives to get it. But when they do get it, they are floating on cloud 9.

This is the mind set you must have when it comes to your dream. Just imagine how you will feel after you have went through the daily habits and struggles to achieve your Dream.  You to will be floating on cloud 9 the day your dream comes true.
