People always say I get to lucky or things always seem to go my way. Here is how I got here.

It's seems to allot of people it happened over night and my life has been filled with so much success "I just am a lucky person" "things always seem to fall into place for me" some have said to me.
Well let me tell about my path to get where I am today.
1. Failed kindergarten as a kid
2. They said I was dyslexic and needed extra help I was in every "at risk program" as kid growing up
3. Failed every core class in 7,8,9th grade
4. Dropped out of high school in 10th grade to work at Dairy Queen
5. Kicked out of navy at age 17
6. Made a ton of money at 19
7. By 21 lost everything and lived in my car
8. Struggle to even hold a job in early 20's
9. Lived on couches road the bus to work saved enough money to buy a bike not a motorcycle the kind your petal lol and finally bought 1988 Corsica so I could get a second job and ended up working 3 jobs. Call center in the am worked at Aribas at night Waiting tables then delivered the news paper out of my 88 Corsica to the asu area extremely embarrassing time I would be delivering the paper while everyone was party and leaving the bars.
10. Late 20 twenties got my mojo back and started having some success again in my career and starred to make a little extra money
11. Tried to do a fix and flip on a house that could have made me 80k in one deal 2 weeks before the deal was going to close the economy crashed the house I was fixing and flipping was basically worth nothing and couldn't sell it. Lost all the money I put into this deal including money from a partner
12. Helped a company grow from 2.8 to 7.4 million in 2 years they told they weren't happy and wanted to renegotiate my pay I refused and quite
13. Was offered a partnership into plumbing and HVAC company where I would be the idea guy who grows the Bussines and I would get 1/3 of the company. 2 weeks into the deal he told it won't work out and told me to it was over.
14. My first year in business I made 30k in revenue not profit just revenue.
15. Lived off loans and credit cards
16. With in 1 year of taking the plunge I was billing 30k a month.
17. With in 2 years would have a multi-million dollar international marketing company
So as you can see nothing has ever really fallen into place and I am not so lucky.
