And I joined BMI back in August 2018, so more than a year ago. And before joining BMI I was basically working full time as a project manager in different agencies. I was really fed up with the whole thing. You know working for other people and feeling like I was getting under paid and just under a lot of stress. So, what I really wanted to do was just travel, I just wanted the freedom to go and travel and be totally location independent. My goal was to just become a freelancer and just travel around. I met someone that was in BMI already, and they told me about it and this guy was traveling in between Asia and Europe, and I thought, wow, that’s what I really want to do. When I joined BMI, that was my goal, was basically, I remember telling him that I was happy to make $2,000 a month. This was gonna give me enough money to basically live in these cheaper countries, which is where I was wanting to go, like to these exotic places. What I started doing right away was, I got the tips and the tools I needed to start making money online and most importantly start finding clients online because I had tried a few times on Upwork and on different platforms to find my own clients and I just didn’t get any. I was really amazed by how quickly things started picking up. And my goal last year was to quit my job by October, or to leave Germany by October because the winter was coming and I really hate the cold weather. So, I was able to do that, and then I started traveling pretty much one year ago, I’ve been moving around from different country to country. And at first I was really enjoying it because of this freedom. Then earlier this year I started to get really motivated by other people in the group that were posting their success stories and I started thinking what am I really doing, I really want to do something with my life and build a career, but I really don’t want to go back to having a full time job. I started getting really motivated to really grow the business and that’s when I started to connect with other members a lot. So in the coaching calls as well as in the community, just seeing like, really paying attention to what other people were doing, what are they doing that is making them successful, talking to them, asking for tips,and that’s been really amazing. Besides everything I learned in the coaching calls, I also get a lot of value out of talking to people in the community, so even if they’re not making tons of money, maybe they’re at the same level as me, it’s always really helpful to be able to exchange ideas and to see how someone that’s even doing the same business as you, how they’re doing things slightly different and how we can learn from one another. Before joining BMI, my doubts were that, like I was really scared to quit my job and I always had that in the back of my head that what if I need to go back to getting a full time job. And the more that I’m doing this, and the longer that I’ve been doing this, the more unrealistic that’s becoming. So for a while there it was a fear, like okay, if this doesn’t work out I have to go back to a full time job. But right now I’m enjoying this so much. And running my own business that I can’t even imagine ever going back to working for another person, like that’s just crazy. I guess my doubts before joining were more like if this was really something that I could do. I used to think that running a business is not for everyone, you know it is a lot of hard work, it’s not like it’s an easy magical solution, but having support of the group has really helped me.
