Hi everybody, I believe I have finally found the winning formula. Let me go back just a little bit to fill you in on why I needed to find that "winning formula". Point blank I've been unemployed since January 22nd, 2009, and it started to seem like the harder I tried the worse things got for me. The reason for such hard charging effort on my part was the fact that in the past I had squandered some really sweet opportunities and I have been trying to make up for lost time. I figured I would use the past to teach me what not to do and to improve and expand upon the things that I was already doing. In the past I never really (if you'll pardon the expression "busted my ass", neither for myself or anyone else. I was always looking for the sweet jobs and while I was talented I really never went above and beyond the call of duty. I wasn't a slacker, but I never really blew anybody away either. I now realize that it's myself I have to blow away more than others. I am the one that has to live with my own efforts and some how be at peace with that when I go home and rest my head on my pillow at night. For the longest time I was just not impressing myself or others and I began to believe that I was only as good as the results I was getting. I started to believe that I was only as good as others were perceiving me. That made me very frustrated and agitated to say the least. I started to wonder if there really was a God and if there was he must have a cruel sense of irony. While I was struggling trying to feed a family, here were other people way ahead of me financially and socially and they were much younger than me too. I started to hate yuppie type people that drive Subaru's and are vegans and who have high tech jobs in the Bay Area. I felt like they thought too highly of themselves and too lowly of me. What I now know is that the way I saw these people was just in my head. I started to realize that I am the maker of my own destiny and other people have nothing to do with whether or not I succeed. I started to realize that Rome wasn't built in a day even though it burned down in one night. I decided that even though I had to start from the bottom I was going to be true to myself and stick to my guns this time. No more changing horses in the middle the the stream like I had always done. So far I have started my own website http://www.mj12net.org all on my own and I'm well on the way to finding a lucrative high tech position. Possibly even a full time job with benefits. But I now know that I am much more than just a stiff earning a paycheck. I have the capability and the talent to make lots of money by helping others and I can have lots of fun along the way. It's all in what I choose to do. I know now that I wouldn't trade any of my losses for anything in the world because it took every single one of them to get me to the point where I was sick and tired of the results I was getting and I became willing to do whatever it took to get different results. All I can say is that no matter what happens today I will still feel good about myself because I know in my heart that I did the best I could with what I had and I didn't have to compromise my morals to do it either. Come sign up at my website and write me an email. I'd love to hear from you about what makes you feel good about yourself today. God Bless and Take care, Brian
