Saying goodbye when you set off never get easier

I’ve just set off on my China to Ireland by land trip, and I’ve had to (temporarily?) say goodbye to my life in Thailand. Leaving my comfort zone, something that I so often urge other people to do, has once again proven very difficult....

Thanks for deciding to subscribe to my blog, it means a lot to me that people trust a normal guy from Ireland.

You should be proud you're taking a new step to changing your life!

bloggingbroughtmehere_3debook-coverAs you know, blogging changed my life. I left Ireland broke, with no plan, with just a one-way ticket to Thailand and no money. Since then, I started a blog, then a digital media company, I've made more than $1,500,000 USD, bought 4 properties and visited (almost) every country in the world. And I did it all from my laptop as I travel the world and live my dream. I talk about how I did it, and how you can do it too, in my COMPLETELY FREE Ebook, all 20,000 words or so. Just finish the process by putting in your email below and I'll mail it right out to you immediately. No spam ever too, I promise!

Take ownership. Take action, and remember

"If you don't build your dream, someone will hire you to help build theirs"
