“A path is only a path, and there is no affront, to oneself or others, in dropping it if that is what your heart tells you...

Look at every path closely and deliberately. Try it as many times as you think necessary. Then ask yourself alone, one question...

Does this path have a heart? If it does, the path is good; if it doesn’t, it is of no use…”

Carlos Casteneda

As a self-growth expert, I’m passionate about coaching people and providing them with the right tools to succeed in their entrepreneurial ventures. I’m very grateful to be doing what I love, but my story was anything but easy. 

So let’s begin…

Not long ago, I was feeling crushed and empty on my 40th birthday. I had successfully moved to New Zealand with my beautiful wife and daughters and worked my way up to a managerial role at a leading logistics firm. 

You might be wondering why I was feeling so miserable? A loving family, a successful career and a new life in a beautiful country. What had possibly gone wrong?

It was because of my job. 

You see, my career success came from working at big international corporates over the past 20 years. I had my fair share of achievements that allowed me to move up the corporate ladder before moving to New Zealand. Thanks to my ability to set goals and achieve them, I established myself as an operations manager at one of the biggest firms in the country.

But it wasn’t satisfying. 

I couldn’t afford to buy a house, I couldn’t find the time to travel (before COVID), and I couldn’t live the lifestyle I had always dreamed of. My job couldn’t provide me with the financial and lifestyle freedom I craved; it was eating me up inside. No matter what I achieved in my career, I became less and less fulfilled as I progressed.

The biggest wake-up call was when I realised that I was just a number in a spreadsheet. I could only trade my time for money, which meant that I was only a pawn in someone else’s dream. Worst of all, I was compromising my values (freedom, health and family) for money, which I thought was the be-all and end-all. 

Oh, how wrong I was…

Due to my mistakes, I became more detached from my values. My relationship with my wife and kids got worse as I was always grumpy and depressed at home. My health plummeted because of my poor diet, lack of exercise, long working hours and mental stress. My lack of freedom made me hate Mondays and live for the weekend, which can be a recipe for disaster. 

So I started to ask myself, why?

The first thing I found was that I didn’t resonate with conventional life “wisdom.” Like everyone else, I was taught that getting a degree, working hard, and earning a promotion would be the golden ticket to success. If I worked hard at a job, I could have anything I wanted. 

For years, I followed this “wisdom” and even moved to a new country to improve my situation. It didn’t work. If I continued to follow this path, I discovered that it would trap me in the corporate rat race for eternity, which scared the living daylight out of me. 

Therefore, I knew I had to take matters into my own hands. 

Even though I hated my job, one thing I loved about it was coaching employees to help them grow. Whenever I helped someone achieve their personal and professional goals, it gave me great satisfaction. Deep down I realised that I wanted to inspire people, so they could change their lives for the better.

I decided that I wanted to run my own coaching business that aligned with my values of freedom, health, and family. If I could combine this with my ability to set and achieve goals, I knew I’d be on the path to success. 

That was my “ah-ha” moment.

The next stage in my journey was signing up for the Six Figures Mentors (SFM) course and Launch You, which opened my eyes to the world of online business. These world-class programs taught me how to overcome my fears and build a business around my passions — without much capital. 

No matter how inexperienced I was or how much I loathed technology, I could build a lifestyle business that worked for me. But best of all, these courses gave me access to a like-minded community of entrepreneurs who supported me along my journey. 

Taking the path of entrepreneurship was the best decision I’ve made, and now I’d like to help you do the same. Do you want to take control of your destiny and be happy, or be a slave to someone else’s dreams?

The choice is yours, and only you can decide.
