A year ago, I was so ignorant that I did not even know how to copy-and-paste. I did not know what net income and gross profit were or what a profit cycle meant. BUT...

My spirit kept leading me to the world of business. I wanted to be in it so much and I didn’t know how. Yet, it did not matter. One of the cardinal things that I have learned from all my experiences: once you have the courage and the right drive, you are halfway to your dreams.

At first, I just dreamed of becoming a businessperson. I strived hard, and by reading LOTS and lots of business books, like Zero to One, The One Minute Manager, Cashflow Quadrant, Unfair Advantage, and more, I received epiphany after epiphany. Now, my dreams are a reality. Now, I am in the arena.

Only ONE YEAR later, I have established a profitable business and I have provided opportunities to many people, who are now working for me.

Sometimes, I look back and connect the dots of my past to those of my present. I have accomplished what I used to think was impossible to reach. And that never fails to amaze me. Who would have thought that reading these books could change my life? Books, indeed, are one of the most powerful things a man can hold.

I AM SO LUCKY to realise that soon enough. I was only dreaming many years before, until a year ago.

For my reader, I wish you greater success than I have ever had, in even less time. I wish for Epiphany Printing to open your eyes and mind, and fortify your will and spirit, so that you, too, can see how abundant the world is…

So that you, too, can see the opportunities that you never thought existed and realize that they are right there, next to you.

Through my writings, let your spirit wake up. Be who you want to be. You are so lucky. You always have been. Keep thinking that, and you will get luckier. :)

The title of this book feels weird/creepy to me, but there was a lot of interesting information.
