I'm In Tears...

About a week ago I was killing time while waiting to take off on a plane looking thought old memories on Facebook and catching up on saying hi to some people I haven't connected with in some time.

I saw my old pal Mike's name and I thought...
 

Gee...

I haven't seen Mike around in a long time so I clicked through to his profile to see RIP Michael and I was shook to my core.

Michael was my old next door neighbor who was also a player in the industry.

He held my babies when they were born.

And he was gone.

Turns out he had a stoke and died very quickly.

He was only a few years older than me.

I broke into tears and still can not believe that he's gone.

I prayed for his soul then prayed for me to be as present as possible during the time I have as in a moment I got that NOTHING is promised.

I myself had landed in the ICU with Covid a few years ago and they literally called my next of kin and brought in a priest because they didn't think I would make it.

I did.

But I was forever changed.

I was given a second chance.

Michael wasn't.

He was SIXTY.

A young man.

But he was called home.

So a week has gone by since I found out about Michael and I was doing the same thing...

Looking to catch up with some people I haven't spoken to in a while.

Especially now that I truly grasped that we never know when someone is leaving.

Ahhh...There's someone I haven't seen in ages.

My ol pal Stevie P who I built my first website system with.

Love Stevie.

Gotta catch up with him.

So I click and there it is AGAIN.

RIP

RIP Steve.

My Stevie.

My friend.

Gone.

What the hell is going on.

How could this have happened.

How could I not have known.

Life is short.

I've always known this.

But when you receive two shocks in a row it makes you reflect.

Just like I reflected when I almost died of covid.

Why was I spared?

And now I wonder why weren't they.

Did they complete their assignments so there were released of this world?

Do I have more assignments I have to complete?

Is it all random?

Is it by divine order?

We won't know until it's our time but the one thing I know is that every moment is precious.

If you're building a business for residual income...

Don't let it wait.

That income will give you the freedom to explore all your assignments.

Yes you can buy stuff and travel and yada yada...

But exploring your assignments is the greatest work you can do in life and if you are bound it is very hard if not impossible to do that.

Residual income give you something that I can barely describe.

And its not the stuff they put on the website.

It's an inner knowing that few will ever know.

Don't wait to go after that income.

You build it one customer at a time.

One team member at a time...

Brick by brick until it exponentially grows beyond your dreams.

And gives you access to parts of you that you didn't even know existed.

I miss you my friends Michael and Stevie.

I cried over your departure.

But you inspired me to do MORE before mine.

THANK YOU.

And to you my dear reader....

I LOVE YOU.

Which is why I say these things to you.

Over and over again if you have stuck around long enough to notice the repetition.

And I'll keep saying it til my time comes.

I want you to have this.

You deserve it.

You have so much to explore.

Freedom is not about not having a job.

Freedom is about the peace in your mind.

Never forget that.

Until our ULTIMATE freedom arrives like it did for my friends...

That's all we've got.
