After climbing up the corporate ladder to a Vice President of a publicly traded company I found myself for the first time LAID OFF during the Dot Com Bomb. I came home and made a promise to my family that I would never allow anyone else to have control over our financial future. I began to research and I am sharing with you the KEYS that helped me go from unemployment to full time in just 3 months and to over six figures in just nine months.

Just enjoying our lives!

Well, Pat has gone fishing with our son for a few days that is the beauty of our life. We realized our son had 5 days off of work and I said to Pat, "Hay why don't you head off fishing". They left and are having a great time, should have some great pictures to share when they get back. That is the beauty of working for yourself. When ever you feel the urge you can just take off to the mountains and go fishing with your son. I'm sure they are having a wonderful time. Meanwhile, back at home our daughter and I are getting some real quality time in together. We got out all the old pictures that have not yet been put into a scrap book and have starting scraping. Old vacations, birthdays, etc... It has been a great time.

Making Money While Sleeping


Well, I have to write about this. We went to bed last night and woke up this morning to a bigger check! I did nothing, just letting Carbon Copy Pro do the work for me. They have an awesome system. Life is great! I know in the down economy everyone is looking to make extra money and we have really latched on to something here. Carbon Copy Pro has had record breaking growth! There is always a way to make extra money even in a down economy. We were talking the other night while out for dinner about how the economy is effecting people but we have not noticed a downward turned in our business, there is always a positive to every negative. Millions are made during tough times. People are always searching for a way out of a bad situation.

Rising Star


Well, We got some great news this week we are the number one rising star in CCPro. Pretty neat isn't it. The great thing is we are doing it in about 2 hours a day. Last night we went out for dinner and a movie came in and the system had been working for us the whole time we had been out. What about that, we are out spending money but at home CCPro's system is making us money. Kind of great isn't it? Here's a picture of our "Rising Star" report. Oh, by the way it's for the fourth week in a row!!!

One month later

Yes, we know it has been a while since we have posted a blog about what has been happening in our lives. It's a busy time of year for us, end of school for both of our kids, one is in college the other high school so things are now starting to calm down a bit until they ramp back up for summer vacations!!! YA..

We can remember when we could only get 2 weeks off for vacations in the summer now that is no longer a problem. Now that we work from home we can plan our vacations anytime we want too. This summer we will be taking a least two vacations one to the mountains to fish and enjoy the cooler weather. Since, we are in Austin, TX the heat just about kills us in July and August, so we look forward to getting away and fly fishing with the kids. Than we will head to more heat, the beach!!

Our business has been growing in one month we have had 42 applications, 5 bibs, and 1241 leads. It has been amazing and we have to let you know that it's done in about 2 hours a day so it is not going to get in the way of our summer plans! That is what is so wonderful about this business. We have actually been blessed and been able to be involved in our children lives, watch as they make hard choices about life and also have fun living it.

Looking back at our lives getting laid off was probably the best thing that ever happened to us. We have found there to be two motivating factors in life, motivation or desperation. Both have inspired us to live a better life.
