Hi Reader,

One of my favorite things is hearing success stories from students and readers who've used our material to get out of debt, earn more money, start their own business, find their Dream Job, and much more.

This week, I’m excited to share a few of these recent success stories.

(As you read these, imagine yourself in their shoes. Thousands of my readers are building their Rich Life, day by day. Why not you?)

Take a look at one of my students, Heather Quinn. Heather used our online business program Earnable to overcome analysis paralysis, take action, and start her own business (in the middle of a global pandemic). A business that pays her far more money, with far less hours of work.

Her journey began with a DM to me.

“I’m stuck in analysis paralysis and need to just take some action.”

How did she go from “analysis paralysis” to new business owner? Here’s Heather:

I had a major mental block around earning money. After getting divorced, I worked on building up my self esteem in many different ways — a major component was facing and gaining control of my finances.

“Since I have always worked in nonprofits, I thought starting my own business or switching to the private sector were the only ways to increase my income. But I STILL had trouble taking action.

“I knew I needed to just go ahead and take action with what I had. I did, and made my first sale for $25. I also bought Ramit’s book. I mostly learned that I wasn’t getting paid what I was worth.

“I used the techniques in the book to negotiate in my job search. It was my first time EVER negotiating up front, instead of after I was hired. Believe it or not, I had no idea I could negotiate up front. I negotiated a job offer for $65,000. (Which they agreed to too quickly ... I knew from Ramit’s negotiation videos on YouTube I had missed something and their capacity was higher.) This was February 2020, and I started two weeks before shelter in place orders landed in my state.

“I am currently in a job search and received my first offer less than a week ago (in the final stage of another interview process). The offer was for $83,000 and I will be accepting it or a higher offer from the other organization I’m interviewing with. That’s how, in just a year, my base salary went from $51,000 to $83,000, in a pandemic.

“Meanwhile, I started Earnable in January 2021. The biggest takeaway I had immediately was how the highest paying clients want you to ‘do it for them’. I had been so fixated on developing some kind of course, passive income, I never learned until Earnable how important this one on one client work and market research is to eventually successfully build to that step. I’m currently working with a client who is paying me $5,000 (more than my monthly take-home pay at my current job for far less hours of work).

“Since 2019 I’ve paid off over $11,000 in credit card debt, paid off my car early, and ultimately increased my net worth by $31,000 ... and I don’t make six figures. I’m very normal, and three years ago when I was living on credit cards with no vision for my future I don’t think I could have imagined this.

“I see money as a tool now and I don’t fear it.”

Heather put in the work, day by day, step by step, to achieve her Rich Life.

Remember, we all have something inside that others would love to learn from us — and if you know how to turn it into a business and get paid for it, then you can create your own income.

Even in tough times.

Whatever you choose, my dream is that you don’t freeze — you take action and MOVE.

I’m opening Earnable until tomorrow at 11:59pm Pacific. You can launch a business and build freedom and flexibility into your life. We’ll show you how.

Someone's going to do it. Why not you?
