Hey, credit heroes, I'm going live right now, so join me on this live. I don't have much of a voice. I've actually been in bed most of this week because, well, I got Covid and I still have it, so I'm still isolating and no one else is here at our office with me today. And I feel so stupid. I was so careful all through the pandemic, and I never got it. Years have gone by. But then I was careless. I went to this big event and thousands of people were there, and that was careless, and that's how I got it. But thankfully, it's pretty mild. It's mostly just stuffed up. Anyways, like I said, I'm here at our credit repair cloud offices. This is my office. If you're here with me live right now, drop me a hashtag live down in the comments. And if you're watching the replay later, give me a hashtag replay. Okay? Anyways, like I said, last week I went to the Click Funnels event. It was called Funnel Hacking Live. And while I was there, I shot a video that's going to get me into a lot of trouble. See, we weren't allowed to film it, but we did anyways because I really wanted you to see it. And if you're an entrepreneur, you need to see it. It's all about how to overcome obstacles in life and in business so you can get to the other side to achieve your dreams. And I mentioned this a little last week, but I want to show you I got some new pictures at that event. I won the Bootstrapped Entrepreneur of the Year award. Here, I'm going to show you. This is the award I got. Can you see it? I don't know if you could see it, but that's Russell Brunson, that's Todd Dickerson. They own Clickfunnels. And they gave me this big award. I was up against all these people, all these people with really crazy success. This guy is so successful, he even has his own jet. But I won. I won because they liked my story the best. Anyways, winning that award meant a lot to me because, well, a bootstrapper is someone who has built a business from nothing without taking on investors, without having money, without borrowing money. Literally building a successful business all from nothing, the hard way. Okay? And after I won the award, they asked me to come up on stage in front of more than 5,000 people to tell my bootstrapping story. So. So here I am. Here I am again on stage. That's me. It was really cool. They had mine. That's me. When I was 12. I told the story of my life in our company. There's a close up of me on stage. Anyways, it was. It was really cool. And I explained that entrepreneurship isn't pretty. No, it's not. It's a messy, messy journey through drama and pain. But if you can keep pushing long enough to make it to the other side, then you're free. And I shared this story with over 5,000 entrepreneurs in the audience. And now I would like to share it with. With you. Okay. And I know you're going to relate, and I. I hope my story can help motivate you through whatever is holding you back with your business and your life.
