The Ups & Downs On Your Way To Success...

Since I haven't been able to make my 6th trade at the same speed I made my first 5 trades I thought now would be a good time to share my experience of making something happen and what comes with that.

Firstly, thank you so much to all the people who have emailed, phoned and txt me support! It is really really appreciated and motivates me to make the next trade, ring the next person or think of a new way to find the right person to trade with.

I have also meet with, spoken with and heard about people who are knocking what I am doing. The most common one is "Hasn't that already been done by that paper clip guy". My answer to that is very simple and very truthful. The answer is YES. Yes, a person by the name of Kyle McDonald made 14 trades over a 12month period from one red paper clip to a house! Well Done to him, that is a fantastic result!

Now, the lets talk about the other things we do in life to achieve success...
Do we join the rugby team and aspire to be an All Black because we strive to have the same success that Daniel Carter has?
Do we invest in property to become financially free because we aspire to the likes of Donald Trump, Bob Jones and many other successful people?
I think we do. What I am doing with the $2 Trade Challenge is no different.

Modelling a successful strategy to achieve a similar result

If you set out to achieve a result using a strategy that is not "normal" you can expect to have people knock you and support you. I am encountering both types of people and it is fair to say that I am learning a lot about myself, other people and some negotiating skills!

No doubt I will be updating this blog in the next few days with Trade #6. If you know someone who would like to trade with me or you yourself would like to become a part of my $2 Trade Challenge that send me an email, give me a call or txt.
