Despite having been vaccinated and getting the booster shot on December 20th, I still seemed to manage to contract Omicron.
Even worse, when I got the regular run-of-the-mill Covid-19 a year ago this month (even being unvaccinated at that time), I had only mild symptoms.
Getting Covid AGAIN in August (post-vaccination)...barely any symptoms at all.
And now here we are with this Omicron bullsh**...which is no joke. Because I'm sicker than a dog right now.
So, in case you're wondering what this highly-transmissible strain is all about and what it "looks" like to get it, here's the run-down:
Day 1 (Tuesday): Major sore throat...felt like I swallowed a dozen porcupines. Mild headache. Feeling run down but had enough energy to get some basic stuff done.
Day 2 (Yesterday): Sore throat completely gone. This was replaced with a feeling of "balloon head" coupled with a mild "vice grip" headache that worsened through the day and then I got the back pain like I was hit by a bus...I was still able to get some work done but I could feel my "productive" timer ticking down. By the evening, I felt major shivers and I couldn't get enough heat. After standing in a super hot shower for 30 minutes, I got dressed and tried to make dinner. I ordered sandwiches only instead and almost fell asleep waiting for the delivery guy. After eating only half my food, I couldn't get up out of bed and I crashed at 8pm.
Day 3: (Today): Sitting here with barely enough energy to type this email to you. Wishing this was over. And now cursing the motherf***** who passed this disease to me.
Really, though, I'm to blame. Because foolish me...having had very few "leisure" trips in the past couple of years, I decided to take my daughter to the Caribbean. And it was probably there that I contracted this virus...somewhere toward the end. Maybe in Nassau. Who knows?
Or maybe from the little kid on the plane coming back who was sicker than a dog, kept going to the bathroom, and was being fed cold and flu medication by her mom through the entire flight. (It was probably that little sh**.)
Regardless, I have it. Nothing I can do about it. And it sucks.
Now, does it feel like I'm on "death's door" or anything like that? Not really. It's just a mid-level cold/flu. But as productive as I like to be at all times (and trying to catch up on a bunch of work that piled up while I was gone), I'm finding myself sitting here thinking... "Who cares?! I gotta heal or I'll be no good to anybody."
With that said, I am postponing the training I was supposed to do this evening. It'll be on and crackin' a week from today. (I've already updated this change in the system.) If you didn't register yet, CLICK HERE. I decided to change the topic of the training because we're going into the "big time" now. No more pansy footsie anymore. I'm going to show you how to make some big cash influxes this first quarter of 2022.
Also, I'll be postponing the 6-Day Money Funnel Building Mentorship that was supposed to start on Monday, January 17th. It will now start on Monday, January 24th. This way I'm not giving you half-assed trainings (because I'm sick) and I'm able to give you 110% of what I have. So, enjoy your MLK day and I'll see you on January 24th. If you didn't enroll yet, there's still time (obviously). CLICK HERE to check it out and enroll right now.
In the meantime, I'm going to finish binge-watching Cobra Kai.
See you at the top!
Your mentor,
Monica Main
P.S. Good news! The office is now re-opened! Any issues, questions, or concerns can be addressed when calling 661-295-5050 ext. 2 between regular business hours. Also, we had a huge wave or orders come in over the New Year. We're expecting to get everything out no later than Friday of this week! So, if you're waiting on a package, it's ON THE WAY. No need to clutter the phone lines for tracking information. (It'll be automatically emailed to you once your package goes out.) Thanks for your patience.
Christmas is officially over, you survived, and we're now in the last week of the year.
Did you bother writing out your New Year's Resolutions yet?
I don't waste my time anymore with those.
Years ago I read a book called One Word That Will Change Your Life by Jon Gordon. In a nutshell, he talks about choosing one word every single year that will signify what you will work on, strive for, or focus on.
So, for example, for 2021 my word was "Surrender."
This word represented practicing the art of allowing things to come into my life, to stop fighting life and swimming upstream, and to just let go and surrender. While I'm still working on surrendering, this has certainly been a transformative year for me because I've let go of so much, literally and figuratively.
As we get ready to enter 2022, I decided that my word of the year will be "Power." This word signifies how I plan on exercising my power as a mother, entrepreneur, and with my students who will be joining me in my next chapter. Now that I think about it, my word should be "Focus" and I guess I still have time to change it.
Hell...why does it have to be only one word? Why can't it be two? I guess it can be two, right?
Anyway, for those of you who want a "sneak peak" at the amazing stuff I have to come for you in 2022, CLICK HERE. I'll only be working with a handful of students on this new leg of my journey and maybe you'll be one of them.
Maybe not.
Only you will know if this resonates with you...or not. It's NOT for everyone, that's for sure.
Also, I'll be doing a deep-dive training on January 13th at 5:30pm Pacific Time. CLICK HERE to register. Even if you can't join me, register anyway so that you'll be able to see the replay 24 hours after the live training. This will kick off a powerful year and I want you to be part of it.
In the very least, pick your one word for 2022. Who knows? It may completely transform your life in 2022.
Most of you know that I really am not a huge fan of Christmas.
Never have been. Never will be.
And this year is no different.
In fact, if anything, this Christmas...I'm even less into Christmas than maybe the past 5 years combined.
Why?
Covid-fatigue.
A death in the family yesterday morning.
An uncle who had a stroke earlier this week.
An ex-brother-in-law who is paralyzed from the waist down due to getting Covid...only days before Thanksgiving. And now he's trying to "learn" how to walk again.
So, as I celebrate today with my daughter and my dad, I am really excited about one thing.
Today is Christmas which means...tomorrow won't be Christmas anymore. ;-)
So, that's something to look forward to, right?
Most of you have been wondering what the heck is going on with me, my company, my PBS thing, and everything in between.
I'll give you the short of it...
The PBS shoot was in Atlanta last weekend. In fact, it was a week ago today. It went well. And now the filming is finally "in the can," as they say. (Yaaahhhh!)
I have my office partially closed until after the first of the year. So, while emails will be answered, phone calls won't be returned until the beginning of January. For those of you who have left messages, hold your horses. We'll get back to you as soon as we can.
I've been doing a major overhaul of Success For Life (formerly Global Success) in the past couple of months. For many of you, my company will not be recognizable in the months to come.
But...it's a good thing because I'm getting rid of all the things I don't want to do anymore (including real estate investing training, courses, and seminars) and only hyper-focusing on the things I want to do the most to serve you in the highest and best way possible.
My goal for 2022 is to get you into profits as fast as possible and there is only one way I know how to do that.
If you care to take a sneak peak, CLICK HERE to see what it is. I'll be talking about it at great length during a special webinar training I have lined up for you on January 13th. CLICK HERE to register for this powerful mind-blowing event.
The only thing we can control is by focusing on the things that interest us the most, the things we can change, and the things we care about. The rest of it...eeehhhhhh! Just throw it out to the dogs.
If you enjoy Christmas, enjoy today.
If you don't (like me), then CLICK HERE to check out a short video I have for you and in how I plan on lining you up for something really transformative in 2022. And then CLICK HERE to register for my January 13th webinar.
Enjoy your eggnog, baked ham, and yuletide log fireplace streaming.
And know that I'm probably still watching the Harry Potter Movie Marathon while waiting with baited breath for today to be over with.
If I didn't think last year felt "Christmas-less," this year was even worse. As we creep up on Christmas morning (in just a few hours), it just doesn't "feel" like Christmas to me. Does it feel "Christmas-ey" to you yet?
I'm not sure if it's because of Covid-fatigue or if I'm just fed up about how rude and crappy people seem to be this year...but I'm definitely not feeling the holidays this year.
Or maybe I'm just a little sad.
One of my uncles had a stroke a couple of days ago. And if I didn't think that was bad enough, I lost another uncle at 2am this morning. He just...bled out. It was the weirdest thing. No, he didn't die of Covid. He probably died because...well, he was likely just sick of everything.
But, on the bright side (if there is one), here's the good news (at least for me)...
Christmas will be over by the end of the weekend.
Here's the bad news (again, just for me)...
We're about to roll right into another year that seems to be an exact replay of last year...no celebrations, canceled plans including trips, parties, get-togethers...etc. Probably more death, despair, and political clap-trap.
Here's some good and bad news...
I'm about to take a cruise with my daughter that leaves out of Port Canaveral, Florida at the very beginning of January. And who knows if that'll be canceled at the last minute.
Aren't you tired of feeling like you have no control over what the hell is going on?
Okay...I'll stop. It's supposed to be Christmas, after all.
Happy thoughts, gifts, time with family. Yaaahhhh! (I'm trying to make myself feel better.)
One thing that does make me feel better is what I do have control over...and it's pretty extraordinary.
I'll give you a "sneak peak" of what's to come in less than a month from now.
In the meantime...be merry. Or at least try to be.
Or not.
Merry Christmas!
See you at the top!
Your mentor,
Monica Main
P.S. I'll be doing a special training on Thursday, January 13th at 5:30pm Pacific Time that I'd like you to join me for.
Here's what I'll be talking about in this powerful training:
In this power-packed 45-minute training, you'll discover how you can kick off 2022 with a successful online money funnel that you can build in less than a week. For the first time ever, I'll be revealing the key secrets behind the most powerful and profitable online businesses. Surprisingly, the most effective online money funnels (websites) are simple "squeeze" pages that aren't all that impressive. Imagine "cloning" one of these tested-and-proven money funnel websites for your own highly profitable online money funnel that you can build and launch within a week...even if you don't have any of your own products to sell. In fact, you can make huge profits selling other people's products as an affiliate and making 50% to 75% in commissions on what we call "high ticket" sales! This brief but powerful training will show you exactly what is working online now to generate huge profits...and what isn't working. And how you can hop on the online profit bandwagon for 2022!
I'm limited to only having 500 people so slots will fill up fast. CLICK HERE to register. Even if you don't think you'll make it, by registering anyway, you'll be able to get the replay thereafter.
P.S. If you are in the Atlanta, Georgia area, I have the greenlight to (finally) do my PBS show for my book The Lost Secret. If you're interested in attending this shoot on Saturday, December 18th, call my office at 661-295-5050 ext. 2 (on Monday after 9am PST) and we will give you the details about this upcoming event. It's free. You just have to show up on time and with a smile on your face!
The other day I told you how to do what I call the "Holiday Blitz" with your credit reports to boost your personal FICO score.
So, if you don't have a mid-FICO or at least 720 (preferably higher), hopefully you followed the directions I gave you on Monday. (Click here to read the instructions again.)
This time I have a new gift for you. It's a video series I did a while back to show you how to build business credit from scratch which will allow you to access unlimited unsecured cash for building wealth.
Listen, credit is becoming more important than ever. And when the economy begins to shift (as it is now), if you don't have your shit together when it comes to credit, you'll find it very difficult to navigate the treacherous waters ahead.
So...
Now is a really good time to line things up for the upcoming New Year.
Happy Thanksgiving!
See you at the top!
Your mentor,
Monica Main
P.S. If you didn't get my complimentary book and audio seminar called Credit Millionaire, CLICK HERE NOW. I won't be reprinting these as we go into 2022 so this will likely be your last chance to get it (plus all the bonuses).
It's that time of year -- that once a year opportunity -- to get more adverse things off your personal credit reports than any other time of the year. (I'll explain in a second why this happens each year at this time.)
Now, you're probably thinking... "But Monica, I'd rather just enjoy this week, take a little time off, eat some turkey...you know, do all that holiday stuff we all do each and every year at this time?"
Yeah, well...that's all fine and dandy but...if you don't have a mid-FICO score of at least 720 (and I'd like to see it more like at 750) then you must do what I ask of you today (to get your dispute letters in the mail by tomorrow morning).
And if you're not sure why you need a good credit FICO score, things are going to start getting a little "dicey" with our upcoming economic conditions between now and the first quarter of 2022. So, if you don't have good credit...good f****** luck trying to financially navigate yourself and your family through the rough months ahead.
So, yes, if you want to take advantage of this once-per-year opportunity, you have a little homework tonight if you want to start boosting your FICO score up ASAP.
This is what I call the "holiday blitz" and today (no later than tomorrow), you'll want to follow my instructions below if you want to increase your FICO score by at least 100 points by Christmas.
So, are you ready for this?
Here's what you do:
Step 1: Go to www.experian.com and shell out the $39.95 to get all 3 of your credit reports (Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion) all in one fell swoop. (Do not dispute anything through the online system. This is how most people screw it up. You're just using this as a tool to get your credit reports and FICO scores and that's it. Yes, you can use other systems like Credit Karma to access your credit reports. Bottom line: you need all 3. No exceptions.)
Step 2: Go to my website by clicking here to get my letter templates and use the file called "Credit Bureau Letters." You'll send a letter to each of the credit bureaus (Experian, Equifax, and TransUnion) disputing everything that is considered "adverse" or "negative" on your credit reports. You'll also correct any information such as your address, phone numbers, name(s), etc. Anything that isn't correct needs to be mentioned in your letters.
Here are the current 2021 addresses to each of the credit bureaus where you will be sending your letters to:
Experian
Attn: Dispute Department
PO Box 4500
Allen, TX 75013-1311
Equifax
PO Box 740256
Atlanta, GA 30374-0256
TransUnion Consumer Solutions
PO Box 2000
Chester, PA 19016-2000
How will you dispute anything negative, especially if it's really your account in the first place? Simply say this: "The information you have about this account is incorrect and needs to be investigated immediately." Even if it is your account, chances are they have the wrong dollar amount, have tacked on illegal or excessive late fees and/or penalties, and therefore the amount they have listed is incorrect and needs to be investigated. Do not admit that the debt is yours; do not tell them that the debt is not yours. Simply state that it's incorrect and needs to be investigated. That's all you say; nothing more, nothing less.
Print out a letter for each of the credit bureaus with today's date at the top.
Step 3: Make a copy of your valid (current) driver's license or state ID card (or passport) and a copy of one or two utility bills that show your current address, especially if you have moved in the past 2 years. This way they won't send you the boilerplate "we need to verify your identity" letter which they tend to do around this time of year to buy time. Don't let them do this to you otherwise it'll screw up your 30-day clock.
Step 4: Mail out each of your letters (including a copy of your ID and utility bills, if available) via trackable mail (ideally USPS Priority) and make sure you get these out tomorrow morning! Even better, require a signature upon the receipt of the letters. This tells them that you're not messing around and that you're keeping close tabs on what happens in this entire process.
The holidays always present a ton of delay within the bureaus. They are understaffed around this time of year. And by law, they have 30 days to complete your investigation based on what you're telling them to investigate in your letter. So, when you get the letter to them (ideally by Wednesday or Friday of this week), the clock will start ticking at that time.
So, start working on your letters right now. Get them out first thing tomorrow morning...tonight (if you live in the Pacific Time Zone) if possible!
By the way, if you're interested in getting my Credit Millionaire book and bonus audio seminar, CLICK HERE. I still have a few left on hand.
There is $1 Million + in unsecured funding up for grabs.
And you can use this for your real estate deals and/or starting (or expanding) a business.
But I will warn you...
In light of all the forecast upcoming economic changes, I will say that the likelihood of accessing large amounts of unsecured capital for your business ventures and real estate deals will quickly evaporate.
You see, lenders and private money people will instantly tighten the purse strings once the economy begins to fall apart.
And once that happens, it'll be too late to get your hands on any money for building your cash flow empire.
Will you wait until that happens...when it's too late?
Or will you at least connect with my money sources before the sh** hits the fan so you can be sure you'll get your unsecured cash (to build wealth) while the gettin' is still good?
I just completed my last ever real estate Underground Secret Event in Detroit this past weekend. If you weren't there, you wouldn't have gotten my last bit of money and funding resources.
There are the resources I've been holding onto as my "secret contacts" for all these years because they're the ones I use myself for funding my deals.
Why have I been holding onto them for myself?
Because a lot of my students (especially newbies) don't respect my sources. They won't do any study or learn how the business of investing works before calling these people. So, they will simply call these people on the phone without having a deal or a business venture to fund. They will, instead, call to ask a bunch of "newbie" questions, usually dumb ones. And by the time my lenders and private money people have talked to 100+ dummies on the phone, they no longer want to lend any money to anybody, including (and especially) me.
So, this is why I've held back on some of my most valuable money sources.
But...
That's all changed.
Because now, for a very limited time, I'll be giving you these sources -- the same ones that have been offered to all the students in attendance in my last ever real estate event in Detroit.
CLICK HERE to get the videos for the event including these highly valuable unsecured money sources and private lenders.
And because I don't want everybody and their mom to have these resources, I am limiting this unsecured money folder to only 24 students.
This will be the last time I'll ever be offering any unsecured money resources, especially these...the ones I've been hogging to myself for the past 26 years.
There are very few opportunities out there with this financial magnitude. Very few.
This is one of those things that can bring you from "Average Joe or Jane" to wealthy beyond your wildest dreams...
But ONLY if you thoroughly learn the skillset needed to do well in this!
