Hi Friends,
This seems a bit strange to me in that I don't like to talk about myself very much. I have heard it said that if you don't toot your own horn then it will never get tooted.
I don't consider myself an "online" expert. My expertise lies on the nation's railroads. You see, I am involved with enforcing railroad safety laws as they apply to railroad signaling. Before my J.O.B. as a Federal Government employee, I worked for one of the safest and most efficient railroads in the country. It was all I knew and I thought there was no way to make a living other than to live the life I had grown accustomed to. I was locked in to that work-a-day life and I would be bound to it by my debts. But, I found a way out of it because I got so totally frustrated with the constant, mundane work and being at-work all the time. Finally, in 1995, I quit my job as a railroad signalman. I went to work for an aluminum extrusion company in their maintenance department. I liked the work and was doing okay financially until the orders dropped off and they couldn't afford to keep a second shift working... OOPS! A new chapter, again, in my life was about to be written. At that time, I went to work at a rug mill owned by a Belgian company in Georgia where I did minor maintenance duties. I realized that the income I would bring home would not be enough to sustain a family of five so I applied for a job at the Federal Government. Lo and behold, that job lasted about 16 months. As I waited for the Government to come across with a job, I continued to hope for something better to appear. Spring of 1997 brought a fresh start with my current J.O.B. So, I am now a bit more happy and not so worried with the finances.
Over the last 30-35 years, I have been involved with several extra income generation programs. I tried different MLM organizations and I never was successful with any of them. I found that the concept "just get 2" was the most difficult thing I had ever tried to do. I still am drawn to that concept because it is a very good one. I find myself trying to "just get 2" over and over with the same results. Some people would say that is the definition of insanity... well, call me insane then! I like to accomplish what I set out to do and this one thing has made me so "driven" that I will not let it beat me. I am trying through many avenues to learn all I can to make "just get 2" work in my life. In fact, I am working in 2 other "just get 2" programs as I write this. I have set my mind to do whatever it takes to make it work too!
Life without challenges would be very dull. So, what is it that makes me so driven?
I cannot put a finger on it completely, but I have searched my soul and have come up with at least two things that I feel are causing me a lot of problems. Problem One is that I have never been associated with people very much... not many opportunities to "network" with people in my daily routine in the past or present. Problem Two is that I cannot lie to people to get them to "join" me in a business. I cannot tell somebody how good something is if it isn't doing anything for me at the time they ask. When I start a new program, I have a tremendous desire to make it work yet I find these humongous hurdles right in front of me that I cannot seem to climb over.
I normally have great faith in the organization I am working with, but I am totally blown away by the fact that I don't have a success story to tell to people. I won't 'make up' something so that is my demise. I have to deal with facts and I will only give the facts when I talk to people about my "business". So, as you can probably detect, "just get 2" is still the hardest thing I have ever tried to do.
Now, I have gotten off track with MLM and "Just get 2" programs. I am finally trying some else for a change. I now have a place online for members who want to advertise their websites and affiliate pages. It is free to join and a nice place for everyone to get their messages out to the members of the site.
Check out my free advertising website if you care to.
Peace and God Bless,
Leon Horton
