What I want?

What do I want? Well, I want a lot of things. Ultimately, I want to be happy and comfortable. I want to be able to never have to worry about money. I never want to have to worry about being able to afford a great program like this mentorship with Dax. I want to be able to live my life the way I want to live my life. I want to work whenever I feel like working and vacation whenever and wherever I feel like vacationing.

I want my business to get up and start running smoothly. I want to go forward by creating great products and then just going through a simple process to get them in front of tens or hundreds of thousands of thirsty people. I want to become recognized as a leading expert in the field of fat loss. I want to be seen in newspapers, magazines, on TV, and all over the internet. I want people to do a Google search for Matt Maresca in order to find out what I have to offer.

I want to gain confidence in myself. I know it may seem from some of my posts that I am a very confident person, but I still can't seem to shake a few doubts in my head from time to time. I always do my best to tune them out, but I want to put an end to them altogether. This goes for all areas of my life. I want to be the best person that I can be.

I'm sure there's more that I want, so I will keep inserting some things in future posts.

Early Birthday Post

Well it is officially my birthday! I intend to enjoy this day while still getting some work done. The big thing that I see today, however, is that I fully intend to make this next year of my life the best yet. I can see this being the year that I become slightly famous. I see myself becoming one of the leading fat loss experts in the world. I see my book becoming one of the best-selling fat loss e-books (perhaps even print books) of all time. I see several other projects of mine becoming very successful. I see myself making a ton of friends and helping tens of thousands or maybe even hundreds of thousands of people achieve their fitness goals. I see myself all over magazines, newspapers, the internet, and on TV. I see myself driving a brand new sports car. I see myself taking a trip down to Florida and making other stops as well. I see myself leaving the country for the first time in my life. I see big things for myself. It is definitely going to be an exciting year.

As for my progress, I wrote six more pages of my book in a word document which means it is likely 12 more e-book pages. That was my goal for the day, so I am pleased with that. I also think it is much easier to write when you imagine that you are trying to help someone sitting right in front of you. I started seeing myself communitcating directly with that person and saying the things they needed to hear. This made what I wrote seem quite powerful.

OK, time to get some sleep so I can wake up and enjoy my birthday!

Productive Day

Yesterday was a fairly productive day. I got my article finished and set it up on my new website. I also set up an opt-in form to sign up for my mini e-course that I am working on. I wrote the first message for this autoresponder.

I also wrote about 6 pages for my first e-book which is related to the article and the e-course. The six pages is on word, single-spaced with an extra space between paragraphs. That should be about 12 e-book pages. If I continue that for about 10-12 days, I should have the book completed. I really would like to release something in November to get me started.

I feel happy with my progress over the past few days, but still know my production could be better. I will get some more work done today, but tomorrow may be a little slower since it will be my birthday.

2nd Day Complete

It's time for me to turn in for the night and I realize that I still have a long way to go in my transformation.

I did get some things accomplished since last night. I wrote an article (prior to Dax's e-mail) that I have very special plans for. I purchased an additional domain in addition to the 3 I currently own. I set up my hosting account on the new domain plus another one. I did a few other housekeeping sort of stuff to set me up for a big day tomorrow.

Tomorrow is going to be a key day. It's going to be action day. The pieces are now in place to really get the ball rolling and it is something I must do.

I will report back on my success tomorrow night.

Introduction

Hi guys. I'm Matt Maresca. I live in the United States in New Jersey. I've been a trainer for just about a year and a half. I may just be a kid (will be turning 24 on Monday, the 29th of October) but I have very high expectations of myself. I am excited to have the opportunity to work with a great group of people for the next six months. I expect to learn a lot, grow a lot, and put it all into action.

Dax posed the question what am I worth. Well, here's how I'm going to break that one down. I made a statement a couple years ago to some friends and family and have repeated that statement a number of times since. That statement was, "I, Matt Maresca, will be a millionnaire by January 1, 2010." I told you I have high expectations of myself. I still intend to turn this statement into a fact. My mental approach may be different now than it was 2 years ago, and it will probably be different still in a few weeks. But the goal remains the same. And I intend to achieve that goal by touching the lives of an enormous amount of people.

So what am I worth? In 2010 I will be worth at least $1,000,000. But now, I am on pace to make about $20,000 in 2007. That will not cut it. I am worth more than $20,000. I intend to add a zero to that in 2008, actually over the next 12 months. So, if you want the literal answer, then right now I am worth about $20,000 anually. But in my mind and in my heart I know I am worth at least $200,000.

Now, enough of me talking about myself. I am going to get to work on this idea that popped into my head on the way home from my job tonight. I'll post my efforts afterwards.
