Without Rich Schefren I Wouldn’t Have Made It Through The Week

That title is waaaaay to long for good SEO I’d guess… but oh well…

On Tuesday I went to see my counselor and figured that it would even help me get my head together for a very productive day. When I came out of the office I noticed that I had a flat tire. Now this tire has had a slow leak for some time… so I brought out my handy plug-in air compressor and re-inflated the tire.

I thought it might give me enough air to get to my repair shop… no such luck!

I made it about three-quarters of a mile before the tire was completely flat again.

So I wheeled into the nearest gas station to change the tire.

Now I have a lot of camping supplies in my trunk at all times… cuz ya never know when a campout or festival may be just around the corner… so I had to pull all of this stuff out to get to my spare.

I get the car jacked up… and go to get my lug wrench… and it’s gone!

See… back in January some stupid kids broke into my car… they attempted to steal my stereo, but when the last screw turned out to be cross-threaded and not removable… they attempt to pry the radio out and destroyed the dashboard.

The spent a bunch of time rummaging through the car… even popping the trunk…

Then left having taken only my raggedy old iPod and the face to me stereo… leaving behind unopened DVDs and a short-wave radio…

Or so I thought…

Apparently they took my lug wrench… it was one of those big 4-way jobbies… so I didn’t just overlook it.

So I ask the station owner for a lug wrench…. no luck

So I call my dear friend, Christine to come help me… of course she has to bring two toddlers with her… Yay for me! Not so much for her!

By now the station owner is threatening to call the police because I am “trespassing” – Awesome!

So Christine arrives… and her lug wrench is a half-assed piece of junk that only fits her Neon… Struck out again!

So I jump in her car and go to the next gas station and leave a $40 deposit to borrow his breaker bar and socket.

I get the lugs off and the tire is jammed tight! I’m wearing Crocs… not work boots… so kicking the tire isn’t really helpful!

I finally get mad and start smashing the tire with a iron bracket I had in my trunk (they make unshakable tent stakes) and the tire finally popped loose… I got the “donut” on and headed to the repair shop.

Now the repair shop is about a mile from my house so I walked home to wait and then back to get my car. Now I’m not in the best shape… so that really wore me out… When all was said and done… I could barely keep my eyes open in front of the computer… so I gave up and vegged out…

Then yesterday… all I’ll say is that everything I touched turned to lead… I couldn’t do anything right… and I became so frustrated that I gave up again, getting very little done… except playing with the babies! Which is always a good time!

Then this morning I woke up and hopped over to Rich Schefren’s Founders Club which I joined last week. I’ve seen some of Todd Brown’s work there, but today I noticed that Rich’s Instant Expert webinar was up! I had REALLY wanted to check in for that one, but couldn’t figure out how… so having access to it was a thrill!

In the intro he says that it is the first webinar he has done entirely on his own… usually he’s a guest for someone else… like a few weeks ago when he did the call for Alex Jeffreys students… (which was awesome and timely in it’s own right!)

And man… this is good stuff… once again Rich Schefren finds a way to give me the information I’m looking for, and he does it right when my thinking has already turned that way.

Somehow… every time I hit a sticking point in my thinking and start trying to identify, quantify, clarify, and ultimately fix my concerns, either Alex Jeffreys or Rich Schefren comes out with 3 or 4 hours of high quality answers to all of my concerns!

So this is my personal thank you to Rich… and to Alex, without whom I may not have even known about Founders Club… you guys ROCK!

Keep it up!

Peace,
