What have I been up to lately...

I haven't updated my blog lately and there has been no particular reason for not updating it. At times I feel like I have nothing to add but this morning just reflecting on my last couple of blog posts I realized there are several things that I can at least update on.

Well business does continue to do well over all. Decide Freedom International continues to grow which is obvious by our conference call participation. Also D.F.I started a team site which looks great. You can check it out for your self at http://www.dfiteam.com/. In the past couple of months we had our first DFI ring winner, Mrs. Cadie Kalmes. Mrs. Kalmes, was the first person to bring in 30 new clients/members into her Coastal Travel business with DFI since the launch of the DFI Ring promotion. You can see a picture of that ring here >> http://www.dfiring.com/. I have almost won mine and would love to be the first male in our company to achieve that.

Also in my personal business I have joined together with a group of individuals all building their Coastal businesses together. We have started working together out of a virtual office (chat room), in the evenings. We all made a 3 month commitment to invest in advertising and really ramp up our businesses from Oct through December. Although we are in our first month, this has been a fun experiment and it's looking like we are definately getting the results we were hoping to get. I was excited to do this because I'm convinced that we haven't even seen a very small portion of what can be accomplished with Coastal Travel. I believe that we can hit annual incomes of $250,000 to $500,000 a year. I say that because I know that I have been able to earn $100,000 a year and be comfortable working a part time and some times inconsistent schedule. Over the next year or two I expect to prove this hypothesis.

On a more personal financial note. I have been doing some more research and investing in the Forex markets. This is something I rarely discuss but I will say this. I am extremely excited aboout what has started to be accomplished in my portfolio. Even though, I'm in the early stages it is very exciting. When you combine the level of returns I may be able to achieve with the free cashflow from a Coastal Travel business. It's an incredible combination.

This is Sunday afternoon and I'm on my back patio with our Yorkie named Mia. She is curiously watching the neighbors as the breeze blow by on this wonderfully peaceful day. Sunday is always a restful day for me so I'm going to sign off for a bit. I'm looking forward to Monday as usual it's a day of new oppurtunity. I consider it a great privledge to work from home. Have a great day!

All the best,
