I know Im late here but I have limited access to the internet when overseas…Can I still get the freebies JP? wink wink…
I like many on here have had many pivital moments…Good and bad…
Since I was a kid I was always the one that trouble seem to follow…Even when I was trying to do good things…
On the other hand my younger brother could do the exact same thing and vwalla…He was the golden boy…(dont take that wrong…I love my brother and there is no jealousy…lol)
Anyways since adult hood I have been divorced, kids that have disowned me, bankruptsy and a couple business ventures that went south…
But in 2000 I was introduced to many of the books people read for motivation and it totally inspired me…Tony Robbins, Dale Carnegie, Napoleon Hill, Robert Kyosaki, etc…
These people just to name a few are responsible for how my life changed and how I changed…
As I kept reading I was gaining lots of confidence in my self but still felt like I was holding myself back…
I discovered real estate and loved it right away and wanted to do it but fear kept me back until I came across Flipping Homes with Steve Cook…
Steve and all the others have helped accelerate my learning about REI and I thank God for them…But fear was still lingering…
It wasnt until I met Jackie that things have taken right off for me…She is an amazing women and totally believes in me…She believed in me more then I did and its been her constant encouragement about doing REI that has been awesome to me…
We have a 2 year goal to be out of this job that takes me overseas for over half the year and then becoming a full time husband and dad to my 6 year old stepson…As well as bringing Jackie home from her job as a research scientist at UNC Chapel Hill…
I just moved to NC so Im now in the process of doing a Bob Norton BLITZ and working very hard during my vacation time as well as doing as much as I can when Im overseas…
Our goal is to get at least 1 contract done when I come home next and to get systems in place so that she can continue doing things while Im away on my next trip…

I’ve always been fascinated by real estate. I dreamt about investing for years, but didn’t feel like I could ever do anything ‘that big’.
I didn’t have a speck of confidence. I’d made bad decisions, and felt I was destined to a certain life. I spent my twenties hanging out at bars with the other Losers. I was a failure at everything. I married an alcoholic, and I knew no one was wishing they were me.
In 1998, I became a Christian. This changed my life in a million ways. I wanted to be better. This was my first major shift. But I didn’t magically have all the courage I needed. There were still challenges, and I was still dealing with the consequences of my earlier choices.
I had a troubled marriage. With my husband’s drinking problem I had often wanted to end things with him. I don’t usually support divorce, but it was getting unbearable. The problem was I just didn’t think I could stand on my own. I’d been a stay at home mom, and figured I might be lucky enough to find something that paid $10/hr. But I didn’t even really have the confidence to get a job!
In January of 2007, after an episode you don’t wanna hear about, I had had enough. I told my husband that I was through. And I meant it. I couldn’t live like that another minute. I was ANGRY. I decided that I was never going to depend on anyone again. I would dive into this real estate business and make it work, because my life depended on it. All fear was gone, and I wasn’t going to take No for an answer.
One thing led to another and, in April, I ended up going to Steve Cook’s boot camp. This changed my thinking and confidence tenfold. I saw people there who were smart, positive, and confident! Eye-opening moment! The boot camp was followed by 2 deals in the fall, and 3 more after that, and in June of 2008, I joined Steve’s FlipVip Group. This was another gigantic step for me. I would have never thought I was worthy! ? It boosted my confidence a hundredfold!
There is a bonus twist to this story! Shortly after my revelation, my husband went to treatment and began to turn things around. In the meantime, my self-assurance grew through my real estate endeavors and changed my whole outlook on life. Eventually, this change motivated my husband to want a better life too. We have a totally new relationship! God is awesome!
We’re now planning to make another drastic change in our lives. (still kind of a secret at this time) THIS WHOLE CHAIN OF EVENTS WAS HUGE for me. I have come a hundred thousand miles from where I was less than 3 years ago.
So – I guess “the moment” was a drunken night in 2007! Ironically it began a chain reaction that changed both of our lives completely.
Who knew?

I’ll be frank, I havn’t had the pivotal like I want yet in my life. I have had many moments where I “thought” they were pivotal moments, yet days or weeks later I would be back in my same routine. I have lived a fairly safe, secure American life. Mix in with a bit of laziness and you have somebody who thinks the world owes them somethings, as funny as that sounds, it is true for me and generally all of my friends and family. I would hate to think that my pivotal moment is going to happen when I hit rock bottom, emotionally, physically or financially but it might. I need to constantly keep in my head that we only live this life once, and when I’m 80 years old I dont want to think “I wish I did this or what” I need to think “Ya, my life was fulfilling”. I hope success to everybody in their endeavors and God bless. Thanks JP!
