I made $29,403 at 25.
Then I spent $15,000 on a training I couldn’t afford.
That’s just about 50% of my income. Is that crazy?
Maybe. But there’s a reason.
Not because I was reckless.
But because I knew growth wasn’t going to happen alone.
It wasn’t going to be finding a new ‘HOW’,
It was going to be finding the right ‘WHO.’
So I booked a flight to California.
Took a $150 Uber.
And spent two days with one of the best.
He had figured out of system and I wanted to know how he did it.
The 2 days were great.
Was the content life-changing?
Not quite. But the relationship was.
A few months later…
We ended up signing a contract.
6 years later, We’ve done well over 7 figures in:
- Speaking fees
- Brand partnerships
- Book deals
- Training programs
All from placing that ONE bet.
Sure, could I ‘afford’ the $15K?
Not at all.
But sometimes, You need to bet on yourself.
Sometimes, You need to go ALL IN.
This year, Find new ways of going ALL IN.
When you do, It will open doors to opportunities far beyond what you could possibly imagine.
So, go for it my friends.
You’ll be happy you did.
Your friend,
Juan Bendaña
