Part II coming soon!

This didn’t stop my 15-year-old son from going to play ultimate frisbee, while my 10-year-old daughter is having fun on the huge snow slide in our back yard. This reminded me of the blizzard of 1993. We had just arrived in the U.S. to Syracuse, NY, and lived in a one-bedroom apartment — in “projects,” as I learned later.

We had no car, no money, no English, and no means of earning any income. It was a scary and uncertain time. But there were three things that took me from “projects” to a home of my dreams years later.

Here they are:

1. I specialized and mastered a high-demand skill.

2. I kept my focus on what I truly loved.

3. I never gave up.

And one more thing… I ALWAYS invested in myself with people, whose business model and lifestyle I admired. It was always more important to me HOW I’ll make my first million, than WHETHER I’ll make it.

If you want more freedom of time, passive income, and ease of attracting coaching clients any time you want, then I am probably the right person for you to model.

I say as I do, and I do as I say – and my entire business system, which took me from zero to $500K, is available this week ONLY at a fraction of the regular price.

However, there are certain things to understand about introverts that affects their communication and relationships.

• Respect their need for privacy.
• Never embarrass them in public.
• Let them observe first in new situations.
• Give them time to think.  Don’t demand instant answers.
• Don’t interrupt them.
• Give them advanced notice of expected changes in their lives.
• Give them 15 minute warnings to finish whatever they are doing before calling them to dinner or moving on to the next activity.
• Reprimand them privately.
• Teach them new skills privately rather than in public.
• Enable them to find one best friend who has similar interests and abilities; encourage this relationship even if the friend moves.
• Do not push them to make lots of friends.
• Give them the opportunity to have “down time” which involves no talking. Silence is golden.
• Respect their introversion.  Don’t try to remake them into extroverts.

How did you do?
