Can You Spare Me One Minute?

Tips & Tricks

If You Spare Me One Minute, I Guarantee That You Will Change Your Life Forever!

I was born in a family which believe in academic education is the entire world. You’re only smart if you score good grades. You’re only rich if you get good grades. You will be respected only if you follow the system.

In year 2005, I decided to break away from the system…

At that time, I know I don’t want to be a doctor, an engineer, a lawyer (although that would be cool) or even anything that I am not interested to do. I wanted to do something that I am really passionate about: Traveling.

But to travel around the world, I cannot work for someone else because it would be weird to get a 365 days leave every year. :) Since then, I embarked in my internet marketing journey, creating my first online business plan at the age of 15 and go on and work on it.

Today, I am yet to be “massively” successful. I am just doing okay and I am still trying to be better and better.

I am a big fan of a movie called Pursuit of Happyness by Will Smith. A lot of my personal friends at my age think this is the worst movie ever because it’s boring since there’s no fancy dragons or Megan Fox in it. But this movie reflects life so much and I want to share with you a clip from this movie:

If you’re just starting out in internet marketing, don’t let anyone tell you that it won’t work or whatever. I am a living proof that internet marketing does in fact work. Don’t let anyone put roadblocks in front of you — because if they do, I want you to ramp through them.

One day, I want you to email me and tell me how much this video change your life — because it did changed mine.

All the best,

Desmond
