TOUGH DECISIONS

Sunday 11.30pm March 6th,
Now begins the time of tough decisions I am at the end of my rope I have grown so tired of the stress of finding the money to keep my bills paid that I don't want to get up to face the day any more, it has been 7 months since I started selling Jewelry as a supplement to my Real estate business ,I have only commissioned once in all that time the end of this month I will receive that check .I don't know how I have been able to face the people I have asked to help me with money so that I can stay in my current home.The shame and humiliation is unbearable.
Thank God I have friends that have compassion for me and I have been able to negotiate more time for my bills but this is so stressful and hard to do continuously that am becoming worn down and inwardly depressed .I cry in frustration and anger, I don't laugh enough I drift in and out of anxiety and fear of losing the home I have maintained for Myself and Lisa and Rudy .It has been years now that I have not been able to pay my way properly I have spent almost 2 years with my business partner at TCG and we have faced the Las Vegas real estate market head on all this time, building and positioning ourselves to profit from the amazing opportunities available in a down housing market .But alas we have not yet been able to monetize our business so that it Will take care of all our bill commitments.
It seems so ironic hat a man such as myself having a full time job and a business should every 30 days face such terrible financial stress.
I have decided to give my company till the end of this year to become profitable or I must leave and go back to England and try to regroup .Without capital it is next to impossible to run and operate a business.Tomorrow my electricity will be cut off and then I face the ultimatum of eviction on the 15th I will need once again to put together over $900 before that date and I don't know how I will.
These next few days will be full of tough Decisions.

FACING THE GIANT

Sunday 16th Jan 2011 6.20pm
I am facing The Giant ,the huge specter of massive debt that has accumulated in the last decade
a direct result of mis-management lack of knowledge in finances and no direct plan to take down the debt.That was last Decade this one will start with my new approach to the Giant.I have taken responsive action I sorted all debt into 3 categories Institutional , Personal ,and Governmental. The grand total is less than $40,000 not bad for living in America I have figured out a good system that works for me to make repayments I will call all debtors and explain my situation to start with and see if they will work with me .Some of them will not except my explanation but I will do my best anyway to create an arrangement that is realistic for paying back the debt my goal is to completely pay all off by mid way through this Year at best but worst case the end of this Year I believe it is doable and am looking forward to being debt free.
First I will have to bring more income into my household I will start with finding a new job that pays better at the same time pushing to close more deals with my company TCG I am also studying for my Real Estate license and have opportunities with H Leather And P eyewear to build a territory in sales for commission ,I have the ability to change my financial future I can finally use the tools I acquired in the last decade to take on and Face the Giant.

HELLO NEW DECADE

3.30am Monday,Jan 3rd,2011 The start of a new decade is here I did not even realise but this Year is has started with 1.1.11 there will follow 11.1.11 then 1.11.11 and lastly 11.11.11 it happens once in 100 years.As I look back on the last decade i realise that it has been the preparation for all that is coming in the next.I ended the last day of 2010 with a 15 mile run the first 5 miles I dedicated to Rob P the next 5 miles to Giovanni B my friend who past away last year at the age of 49 and the last 5 miles I thought of how much I had achieved and what I was grateful for.It was a challenging run full of recollection and thought I planned how I would help my Son, who although responsible for every circumstance in his life is now facing his own life challenges .He now is a father of 6 Months and has to create a financial future that will support all that he is thinking about, his dreams and aspirations are still ahead of him, I will show him the way when I find it .On last third of the run I connected myself to the Creator I realised that my goals are like
the run each day I will set my goals and prepare for the meaning of what has been before the significance of its meaning in the present and how it will affect the future,I have prepared well the last 10 years and now it all makes sense to me.
From now on my days will reflect my past and in this coming decade l will apply all the lessons I have learned.The start of the work week is here and there is much to do,by the end of this Year I will have One Million Dollars or more in net worth I will spend the next 10 years being a rich man I cannot wait to say "Hello New Decade"
