"Would you like me to give you the formula for success? It's quite simple, really. Double your rate of failure...You're thinking of failure as the enemy of success. But it isn't at all...You can be discouraged by failure-or you can learn from it. So go ahead and make mistakes. Make all you can. Because, remember that's where you'll find success. On the other side of failure."
-Thomas J. Watson, Sr.
This quote truly inspired me the first time I read it.
I was given the book "The Slight Edge" by Jeff Olson and this quote is in the book quite a few times. The first time I read it, I had to re read it...I was blown away.
You see, growing up I was taught that if I failed...I was a failure...that's just how society is. But when I read this quote, it opened my eyes and inspired me because I had been doing the right thing all along! I had been failing! I realized that I had to fail to get where I wanted to be and to get where I needed to be.
So that's what I have been doing these past few months, I have been doubling my rate of failure, not only with my business but also with my personal life as well.
I've wanted to be a part of the Goldmine family for quite a while now it just wasn't the right time in my life to do so, so I did the next best thing...
I plugged into the Goldmine Question and Answer calls, I watched a ton of videos from different Goldmine Members (such as Ryan Celestain, Jeremiah Richardson,Jason Okuma, Robert Sams, Maria Andros, Steve Schuitt, Mari Ann Lisenbe, Gregory Drake, John Gregory, Keith Carey, Eric Green,Greg Demario,Isabel Marie, Jeremy Blanchard, Eric Sanchez, Andy Hunt, Devin Hunter and Seth Daley) and this last month I really started implementing some of the techniques and principles that Goldmine teaches, and because of that I have been able to reach and help people from all over the world; not to mention I have been able to get free leads and traffic from places like Germany, Canada, New Zealand, India, England and I have people calling me every single day from all over the United States. It's amazing!
Now I KNOW that it is the right time in my life for me to be a part of the Goldmine family, and what's so exciting about that is Dennis is having a contest...and the top 5 get to receive a scholarship to be a part of the Goldmine family!
I am so excited about this opportunity!!!
As you can probably tell, I'm extremely coach able.
And I know how important work ethic is, and I know that personally, with my work ethic I will be a huge asset to the Goldmine community.
And with the exclusive training that Goldmine provides, I know that I will be able to help, reach, and even inspire more people than I could ever imagine! And that excites me!!!
I was on vacation in Huntington Beach, CA back in June and I was able to sit in on one of the exclusive mastermind sessions with a handful of Goldmine members including Dennis Karganilla, Eddie Solorio, Ryan Maddings, Jimmy Davis, David Nguyen, and Ron Hightower. I look forward to meeting the entire Goldmine family!
I have a really funny story from when I was in California...
I got to meet Dennis and Jimmy for the first time. They picked us up at our resort in Huntington Beach and I had a HORRIBLE migraine! It had to be one of the worst ones I have ever had. By the time we got to LAX, I was so car sick. I didn't want to say anything because...come on! It was Dennis and Jimmy! So I tried to play it off and act like I was fine....that didn't go well. I finally had to beg Dennis to pull over so I didn't get sick in his car lol
He was SO nice about the situation! He pulled over at a Carls Jr. and this is what he said "Hey, it's cool. I wanted to stop and get a strawberry shake anyways." So we ended up hanging out in Carls Jr. for like half an hour until my stomach was better!
Thanks again Dennis for being so nice/understanding with the car situation!!!
And Jimmy thanks again for running across the street to the gas station and getting the Excedrin for my migraine! But I'm still waiting for that miracle drug that you promised you would find for me and my migraines!!!!
No matter what you're going through in life or with your home based business, MLM, network marketing, pyramid scheme, direct sales, traditional business, online business, whatever you want to call it ;) Or if you are associated with any of these companies... Quixtar, Sango, Pre-Paid Legal, Vemma, CAN, SGR, Costal, fhtm, Road to Riches, VM Direct, Herbal life, 5linx, Isagenix, zrii, goji, ytb, xooma, xango, monavie, freedom rocks, uvme or any other company, remember the secret to success is failing your way to the top.
And remember what Watson says, double your rate of failure. That is one of my favorite quotes and I really do apply it to every aspect of my life...personal and business aspects.

Hey!
Thanks so much for your comment!
And to answer your question, no you are not supposed to try and fail. I think you might have missed the concept.
You're not supposed to try and fail, but when you do fail just acknowledge that it was failure and move on...because we are all destined to have success. Success comes from lessons learned
Thanks again for watching my video! :)
