Information in general has always been available, it’s up to each one of us to go and find it out.

Like the saying, what is hard is not to find a master but to become a disciple…

When it comes to business, I went to libraries, learn all I could about starting my own business, I went to take some course in my local Chamber of Commerce and Industry, I did all what the people who don’t succeed where too lazy to do.

All the countries in the world have public libraries… there’s an unlimited source of knowledge there available to whoever wants to learn.

When I started I didn’t knew much, but when I encountered something I didn’t knew about, rather than giving up saying I don’t know what this is all about; I went to search find out more and learn about it… at each step I became more experienced and knowledgeable.

Was it easy? No, Was it worth it? Oh YES!

Retiring at 30 which mean a 10 year of hard work and make the job that others would do in 80 years, seems unbelievable. That means so much determination and wise priorities.

From the moment I found out that you retired at 30 and 23 you already made big money. I was asking myself how did you learn all this stuff so fast.

Today I can find tons of information about internet, but when you started everything was new there was less information I guess. Did you have an idol from whom you learned? If you did this by yourself, that is unusual I would say.

Thanks!

Many people have dreams of retiring early but they can’t because they didn’t take any action out of procrastination or fear. They still prefer having a daily job because it brings them financial security. And they don’t want to take risks in life to achieve more than what they already have.

Quoting “The only thing that prevents people from doing something is themselves.” – yep I can’t agree more Nicolas.

We are masters of our own destiny and future .

There are thousands of stories of people that came from LESS than nothing and still made it big. Look at people like Mother Theresa (a poor nun) – she is know all over the world. Same thing with someone like Ghandi.

And if old people say that “it can’t be done”, then tell them the story of Colonel Sanders that started KFC at the age of 65 (after getting rejected by banks more than ONE THOUSAND times).

Everything is possible if it becomes a MUST for you

I know a lot of people, including myself who went from so called impossible situation for many, yet still wanted to make a difference and did it against all odds.

This can be seen from steps as small as a Taxi driver I met in Thailand. He was too poor to go to school and yet he could speak english, how was that possible?

He spend his time trying to talk to as many foreigners as possible, self-teach himself how to read english from sign boards and others, and as practices goes on, he ended up being able to speak better english than some graduate students…

People like that are the people I really deeply respect.

Thanks for your response. What you’re saying is so true. At a certain point in our lives, we want to realize some dreams like having more time for family, working less, enjoy life because life is really too short.

But most of us can’t do that due to the daily 9-5 rat race. Most people are consumed by this hectic lifestyle. They work and focus on career to achieve more progress but in the end, as time passes by, they start to enjoy what they achieved by their sixties. How you view to enjoy life in your 30′s is different from your 60′s. When you are still young, your needs, desires and aspirations are not the same as when you’re older like you said.

People say don’t waste time, in fact if you look at it right, it’s not time that you’re wasting but hours, minutes and seconds of your limited life. Time is infinite. So from a life perspective, it’s important to use our time wisely and make the most out of it.

I believe an Internet business is one of the greatest ways to achieve freedom in life and not getting stuck to a working schedule and routine. I think there is a lot more to life than working and working till retirement at 60-65. Many people don’t realize that or to those who do, they can’t do anything much about it. The concept of retiring early is definitely something most people would want but can’t.
