I think you are off to a good start. I am interested to see how it goes! It sounds like you just need to stick with it... that seems to be your struggle is not getting distracted from a project.
Good luck!

Yes, I updated it from the original thanks to your feedback. Thank for that. I didn't mean to be vague in the original text, but it must have subconsciously slipped in there. I didn't want to go into too much detail with a whole autobiography of all the crap I went through or how well I'm doing now and all the steps in between, but I did update it with some specifics so that people know where I'm at.
Secondly, you are absolutely right about about my struggle in getting distracted. When you become somewhat successful in life and you have a mind like mine and finally some money to spend on studying stuff you begin to do all kinds of crazy stuff. Like when I wanted to learn about nutrition, I didn't just go to my doctor and ask a simple question or read a single book. Started studying like crazy, reading dozens of books and then finally started taking a nutrition course to become a certified nutritionist. So besides wealth I study that. THen there is martial arts. THen there's learning magic from a professional magician. Then there is my RC Car hobby. Then there is the guitar I bought this year. Then there's _______ <--- insert new hobby. It's so cool to be able to experience all these different things. Steve seems to function the same way as well.
However, in this case, with this blog, I am working with a personal coach/mentor on a long term basis who is helping me to focus on the one thing I know the most about which in my case centres around making money, and doing it with a long term focus, with integrity. This is why I'll actually stick to this blog, and not get distracted because it's already something I've been passionate for a long time and I don't see that passion dwindling any time soon. Also, my mentor will beat me over the head, but that's a different story.
It's already starting to work. Today I got my amazon box with like 8 books in it. Instead of the usual reading of all 8 books at once, I grabbed the first one and read the whole thing from start to finish tonight. Feels great to finish stuff.
Thanks for your input.
