Far before starting made my internet income my life is not so good, many, and too many obstacle a long my road…, with all sadness and desperate…, but thanks God, because iam still hold on and even above my own dream life…by my income from blogging or my website, I have my own meaning of life and this is my story, hope can inspire you to keep trying….
Chapter 1 :
I and Family
Introducing, my name is Ida Bagus jayapranata , my nick name is Gus de, I live in Bali Indonesia..have you visite it? It’s a beautifull island…btw, Iam first born son from 3 child in my family..(im sorry about my english is not so good..he he), my father is an Obstetric Gynecologyan Docter, our family life in wealthy and I use to be a spoiled child, we have big house with severall maid…
I and Education
Like other child in rich neighbourhood, I have high dream…ad when I finish my high school, I went to Architect college, im not lazy boy, even that im not to bright, I finish my study in 4,5 years (in architect its quick, many of my fiends still study after I graduated… ) and with good points. And like my family wish, I start to make career as a great architect…
Bright and Easy Career Life…
After that I join with my uncle’s great consultant, I got high position where is not for someone on my age…every day its so proudly to be high rank staff in big company, even I know that because im the boss’s nephew. The most important thing is how happy that I remember that many of my college friends is still study in campus or be jobless or have small position in small company..mylife is so bright..and above all of that it is easy to get close to girl when they know i have good career position, when my friends still in college to study…
Chapter 2
Something missing in life.
All of routine activityis followed me, I m may have the proudof being a working man, but am I happy ?..i stated realised that Iam work too hard, and as quickly also my body is getting weak and not proportional anymore..im not fit again…!. Im feel tired quickly and my face look like older than my age..im going home about 8 night and starting go to work at 9 morning …with the same and same activity…and that is circled around and around…nothing is interest to me..sometime even I don’t know what is going on the world outside…and my life is wasted on my daily work..
Imaginary job and adsense…
Afterall this thing is starting to broke my body..dead line..meeting, bad clients, over work..this not healty life..imagine you sit hours a day..and its difficult to me
The important thing to me now is to find a job that not only give me money..but also give time to have sports and time to my self..
Someday I see an article in yahoo about ashley qualls, this young girl has made big money from her web site www.whateverlife.com (70.000 usd per month ) and still increased.. and its inspire me..imagine about this job.: money, our own time, own idea, own life…no meeting, boring days, boss, bad ass client…
Decide on Roulette..
After one year in proudly but hard and boring job, finally I decide to quit from my job in company…this is so risk decision, all my family , my friends and of course my uncle has shocked about my decision, my girlfriend also questioning…why ?...
But this is my way..my path..altought I don’t know I will be success (and no guarante for that) I stand on my decision…I quit from my position and chose new “uncertainly” career as a website master, something I never learn before….
A Not Good Start Afterall…
I start to make website, from big zero..i learn by myself autodidak, its about 2,5 month to make my first web (by joomla platform), and then I submit it to google adsense and hope for big money…life in fantasy…
After waiting for more than 2 month, finally I got adsense…and I m sooooo happy, now its time ! I yealling in my heart…but 3 month after that..i realize that my income is too small even to pay the internet connection…I have several blogspot and one web..but I start to think that I maybe fall on hole that I made my self …
Desperation…
The most important thing now is to maintain my own money, and I play forex to increase my money, I bet my whole money about 500 $ and start playing…the first week..its begin to give income…but, after fall and fall…my money still 350 $...it is crazy…adsense still refuse me..and im get cornered now…
After one month later..my money is empty…I could not say anything…6 month before I can convince my father that im gonna be a success web master…but now I only can afford his help to refund me…its so sad when you have faith but fall afterall…im become unsocial people, I so desperate, my girlfriend leave me, but I don’t care anything…my career as architect is closed…
Chapter 3
Meditation
Im now and im 8 month ago is diferent person…8 month ago I , young man with good career , good girlfriend, family proud, my friend also respect a lot of me, also their family too..my bro..see me as a patron. But look at me now…im 25 years old, no job, no girlfriend, broke in my own fantasy dream…im locked in my big house about 8 months , and I starting to lose my friend…im never go to hangout with my friends ( im feel so lost and shame )…so they being far from me…( if you smile, whole world smile with you, but if you cry in sadness, you cry alone…I remember that wise proverb...)
So that, I look to my self in meditation…meditation give me peace…clear vision..to view the thing behind the fog…
Oneday, I, in my meditation…I hear sound like to talk to me…He/She said “its not like that buddy…its not like that…thrust me…thrust me…” and than dissapear..
In another day of my meditation that voice come again..” now let release all of your burden…see..but don’t try to think….dont try to think….”
When im releasing my concentration ( but still close my eyes )…I see google home page…I wonder “ whats happen with google…?”..and then I got intuition.: why google got a lot of money ?...look at their homepage..its so simple…nothing attractive…and then I realize that is just about “if you provide something that usefull, then people will thanks to you and remember you…”..forget about SEO, or design its in second place, the first thing you should remember that you must make a usefull thing first !”….
With new hope and strenght…I’m forgeting all of my strategy SEO or adsense strategy before…my main goal is to provide a usefull thing to people…my web also must look good looking, not just adsense block every where…and then I woke up from all my nightmare…
Don’t put all of your eggs in same basket
“please remember this advise… Don’t put all of your eggs in same basket, I made bad bad mistake in the past, and I not try it again… outside my internet bussiness I also meet a property bussinessman, his name is Mr. Dewa, he is old enaught but still respecting young man like me, I laso not too forget all my study in architect so I can convince him to work with me…Mr. Dewa and I try to make a lot of cheap house to sell…I see it as future project, if my internet bussiness faill, and now this new strategy give me peace in my head, at least I have plan B in my life..
Keep Fighting…
2 month (on full of fighting ) after that I begin to smile, my blog is produce 700 $ on one month, one on my handphone blog 250 $, my car blog 250 $, and my football 100 and my friendster blog 100 $, im so happy its nearly 2 times with my company sallary ( I will not mention my own blog or web coz im afraid of click fraudl, thanks for understand before)…im happy so happy, maybe its like how happy Colombus finding America after many people don’t agree with him…
Life Of Freedom…
Now..my life is full of fullfillness , freedom, free to decide..i have two employee now, and my bussiness is become more strong and stronger, I have made 100 $ in one of my website, one of my blog also made 90 $ perday…now I can workout as long as I want, no “must” word anymore in my life, no dead line, no boss, no client, no wasting time..im now master of my own life…I never ever defer to anyone or anything anymore..(except God and I think He is full of humour…he he he believe me…), everytime I see a man who have fat stomach and faint face..i would be sorry for him…I like see I am a diferent species with them..and everytime I hear someone who depress on his job in office, or when he amazed to his boss or his/her upper staff or someone I just say to them that only one man that I admired..that is me my self !...
Filosophy
I think this internet job is not only give aportunity to get money (big money), but also make new lifestyle when you are your own master, and your fate fully in your own hand..its also teach me to respect to my self more..as many people too respect other man ( like hitler or mussollini )or other mans idea (comunist, fanatical religion ), but ironicly they forget how bright they really are…
So how about you…?
