Today and for the next 10 days I will blog about my son’s home coming and document his arrival here in the US. This is NOT ordinary or usual this is a big deal for me and I will tell you why in a second.

Many times we see people show off their cars, huge house and piles of cash and they convey this as their success which is great nothing against it NOT a bit, but many of us actually get up in the morning to go to our 9-5 job or work in your business because we want to give our family the best future.

Most of the time we work so hard because we love our family and we want to provide for and give them the best and when we see that our family is happy and smiling we are so happy as well.

You see my family is always first on my list no matter what and my family is my happiness. To me this is how I define success is whatever makes you happy so if cars makes you happy then count that as your success if the houses makes you happy well count that as your success as well.

But like what I said my family makes me really happy that’s why I want to reunite all my family and I will bring everyone over here. My son Brandon is one huge step forward for my family here in Vegas.

Also it’s a dream come true I haven’t seen him for 9 years I wasn’t there for many of his birthdays, I wasn’t there when he was sick, I wasn’t there when he was scared of something and I wasn’t there for him for many occasions and I want to make it right with him.

That’s why this is a big deal for me if you have kids you know what I’m talking about. So today I wanted to let everyone know that this is “Day 10″ and I am on cloud nine right now I am very grateful and it feels like I am dreaming.

I am thinking about the day he gets here in the McCarran Airport I will hug him so tight and pick him up and Yes I will cry like a baby. Folks this is my huge success that I can show off to you guys it’s a real success story we’ve been trying to bring him over here for a very long time and finally he’ll be here in 10 days.

I wanted to share this with you because this is my true success and my dream come true. So please pray for me and support me. As always guys take care and love you all can’t do it without your support.

Also please keep coming back here to get an update on the countdown. Well I hope this inspires, motivates and has helped you in some way. Let me know what you think guys, please comment below and please don’t be shy Take care and love you guys.

When I started blogging fulltime 2 years ago it was pretty tough because I felt that I was at the lowest point in of my life. I was unemployed with no savings and there were tons of bills and everything was 2 months past due and everyone that I knew seemed like they were in the same boat so I couldn’t ask for any help from them.

If I’m by myself probably I wouldn’t sweat it but I have a family to feed and also family back home in the Philippines. When I used to have a day job I “supposedly” make pretty good money at $22.00/hr as a network administrator, but we were really struggling big time!

I didn’t even see my paycheck and all this is because our health insurance was 800.00 per month and this was really killing my budget. Most of the time I had to wait till next payday just to buy the basic necessities in the house like shampoo and toothpaste.

The thing that really broke my heart is one day I caught my wife crying in her walk-in Closet, at first she tried to deny it, but when I ask her,”Why are you crying baby?” And she said “I’m tired of our situation it’s a struggle everyday and we can’t even afford to buy a pop in seven eleven,” that’s how bad it was.

This really put a lot of stress on me because of all the responsibilities I had. So many times I was bitter, pissed and not in a good mood. Also all this negativity was at work and not helping and just thinking about that it could not get worse than this our company started downsizing.

This is corporate America’s term for firing people; I know they try to make it sound so good. So the stress level at work is up to the eyeballs for many I can tell that everyone is nervous because you don’t know when your time is up…

Also too, the rumors make it worse. I remember there was someone who went home because of chest pain well I wasn’t immune, I was nervous too “Only” I had a product that I just launched online which was “Minisite Video Training” and it helped a little bit.

It was something good to look forward too though. I saw a couple of folks let go… then the next day a few more… the next day 3 more and it became an everyday thing that really put the stress level through the roof.

I was thinking maybe they will not let me go because of the fact that I ran the whole IT Department here in Vegas also I am part of the corporate so for a little bit I felt like I’m good. Maybe they will not fire me plus too I have a very good relationship with my immediate manager were like family I love my boss he’s always looking out for me.

Here’s the climax one day… I was really down, I mean really down and I just don’t know what to do because our house payment was behind plus the car payment is coming up too… Again just thinking that it could not be worse.

Then the bomb drops I saw my boss he’s actually based in Riverside California and they flew together with the human resources manager which is a good friend of mine too. He’s looking at me like telling me “Albert I am so sorry Man!”

I was looking at him too, straight up, then he said let’s go to your office Albert and the 3 of us went into my office then he shuts the door he begins to say Albert it’s not you but our company is… that’s the last word I hear and I was devastated.

I was numb I didn’t know what to do all our bills are already past due and this is what happened. I called my wife and let her know and she said “GOOD” I said what? And she said it again well that’s “GOOD” so you can focus on your business.

I love my wife dearly she’s been with me through thick and thin, with all these roller coaster rides. Man! I said to myself I hit rock bottom this is it, I don’t know what else to do and even worse yet I thought I might cancel Christmas.

The kids are looking under the Christmas tree for their presents but there was nothing, not one thing. So one night when everyone was sleeping I was downstairs and I had a one on one conversation with the big guy up in heaven I said, “Lord I am tired, please help me with this” then I went to bed.

That morning I said “Today’s Gonna Be A Good Day” and that was 2 years ago and that situation that I thought was the worse thing ever turned out to be the best thing that ever happened.

As you probably know that I make a living with this blog I also have tons of great opportunities on the way and this is just the beginning!  So whatever your situation might be right now all you need to do is forget everything else and change your mindset and tell yourself! “Today’s Gonna Be a Good Day!” and I promise you great things will happen.

Now every time there’s a situation in my life I just simply say “Today’s Gonna Be a Good Day!” like last week I had terrible news you probably saw on the news too about that super typhoon that hit the Philippines.

There’s hundreds dead, thousands became homeless and displaced, and tons of heart aches… My own family (Mom, Dad, Bro. & Sister, son, daughter, and grandson) back home are victims and experienced this horrible calamity.

I was talking to my mom and dad, see the picture below (VIA Skype Video Call):

As you can see my mom started crying and telling me that they lost everything, I mean everything and they almost didn’t make it because while they were evacuating (to my sister in laws house) my mom and my daughter crossed a flood with a strong current and their both crying.

But GOD was on their side, in spite of my family losing everything my mom had to sell her cell phone to feed everyone nobody was hurt or worse dead so on the picture above I almost broke down but I needed to be strong for my family (My mom and Dad think I’m superman they’re very proud parents).

I told my mom we will replace those things plus now it will be brand new. They need a fridge it’s very important to store food and water. I already sent them some money also people donated here on my blog (thank you so much) and I will put the donation button below too if you want to help.

While talking with my folks I told my mom and dad, bro. & sister, son and daughter let’s pray and “Today’s Gonna Be A Good Day!” All this is just a process for a breakthrough and a blessing (a big one).

Just like giving birth the greater the pain the closer the mom is to giving birth and just like what I thought that it couldn’t get any worse things turn out to be not so bad. So I am stronger than ever and please do the same especially at this time many are going through because of these tough times.

But like what I said “Today’s Gonna Be A Good Day!” Guys lets pray for the people of the Philippines, The Filipinos were our friends during the World War II, they fought the Japanese side by side with the Americans and wins, and during the Iraq war Philippines is a poor country but yet sent some troops to help the USA.

The Filipino’s will always be a great friend of the USA. So please help them and pray for them. Take care and love you guys.

Typhoon Ondoy Hits Manila!

Please Help!

YES! I quit!! I’ve had enough with this internet marketing thing and I give up and want to throw in the towel.

Well this is what I had in mind a couple days ago. You know working from home is not that easy especially when everything isn’t going your way.

I mean there’s one problem after another. Since I run my own business it means I have to hunt for my own food now, no more 9-5 then you get a paycheck every week. So I need to make this thing work or else my family and I will suffer.

This is the reality folks; sometimes you’re going to have these kinds of days while working from home and let’s face the fact that it’s not Christmas everyday.

Believe it or not I came very close to quitting and I know I needed to turn this mindset around because this is so negative and not the right thing to do.

Also I realize that I am a human being and sometimes you’ll feel down and frustrated by the way you look at things.

I want to share with you how I overcame these difficulties in my internet business journey so you can learn from it too.

Like what I said I came very close to quitting. I said to my self this is it! I’m done, I’ll just do something else or just go back to work (day job) as a network administrator or just do whatever is NOT internet business.

It’s not that I’m failing; actually I think I am a successful internet business owner. I work at home and I create product after product and most of them are best selling.

Many people only dream of this and some don’t even think that’s it’s possible.

What frustrates me is just this past week I had so much negativity around me, business and personal and it seems to have taken me over. So here’s what I did to turn this around and back to where I am suppose to be.

I prayed and recognized that I had a problem and I turned off my computer, just to get away for the moment and not think about anything.

Then I asked my wife and kids to go swimming in the pool and just have fun and don’t think about anything. I talked to my wife and told her all about it.

Man! I love my wife so much she supports me all the way; I also talked to a very close friend of mine he actually feels like a big brother to me, Edwin Green.

You see networking is really important and powerful, you need to network with like-minded people so when things are tough you can talk to them and most of the time you’ll be pumped up after your conversation.

After a couple of days before I powered up my computer again I pulled out my wallet and looked at our family pictures (we don’t have pictures on our wall yet because we just moved to a new house last month and most of our stuff still in the box)

While looking at my family pictures I realized I did all this internet business thing because of my family and I want to give them the best. I also looked back at all I’ve been through to get where I am right now!

I mean all this internet business thing is 6 years or more in the making and like what I said I am successful! And the fact too that I have a very powerful network of friends and business associates that I built relationships with over the years.

Plus I have thousands of subscribers and readers that are relying on me and I definitely don’t want to let them down.

So I made my decision and read my lips "HEEEEEEEEEEEECK NO!" I am not going to quit I came very long way to stop now and as far as I’m concern I’m almost to the peak already, I can see it and smell it!.

You see regard less you either work form home or you have a day job (9-5) your going to have those days that you feel so down and to over come this you need to stay focus and stay motivated that’s it simple as that.

You need to stay focus and forget all these negativity in your mind just focus on the things that you know will make you successful.

Stay motivated very important just think all the good things that’s about to happen or had happend in your personal or business maybe that $ 2,000 dollars sales in one day, that $11,000 in month sales.

What ever it is to keep your self motivated maybe your kids or your family. The way I look at business if you quit you lose and I am not a loser, definitely I will not walk around with a loser written on my forehead I don’t think so…

I know I am just 3 feet away from gold and I want you to know that I am not quitting and will not let you down my dear readers, students and subscribers!

That’s it and feel free to comment! (Don’t be Shy!)

Hmm…

OK! Lets start from the top right my wife, Darcie Hallado, she’s my Chief Editor and she makes sure all the content that goes out is appropriate and passes the quality control.

You know sometimes I’m a little confused because I’m supposed to be the president you know? The one who makes the decisions and calls the shots but she seems to boss me around and she doesn’t agree with some of my business decisions.

Like I called a mandatory meeting the other day and the agenda was outsourcing… I was thinking of outsourcing some of my special projects around here, you know like taking the garbage out, cooking, cleaning the front yard and so on…

And I couldn’t believe she said, “You must want me to give you more chores?” And wouldn’t agree with me at all. Who is she??? You better watch it girl! (I said very quietly under my breath).

Just kidding I love my wife so much!!! She’s my greatest friend!:) Now, the bottom right is Gilian Aja Hallado, we call her jellybean or jabean, she’s so pretty isn’t she? I know, I know, she looks just like her dad.

She’s very sweet and obedient; she’s also the manager of the food and beverage department. She always makes me coffee every morning and it’s yummy all the time. Oh! She’s also very good with graphics and Photoshop (just like her Daddy).

Top left is Mylles Raine Hallado, we call him boy or mymy, Ok Mylles is in charge of the spelling department. Man! This boy is very good in spelling I’m always calling him to see if my spelling is correct (I use the spell check sometimes).

He’s also the biggest comedian always making everyone laugh. He’s also very handsome, again like his Daddy it runs in the family you know, just kidding!

I also have two more kids, Brandon Deuel Hallado and Charmaine Deuel Hallado, back home in the Philippines and hopefully they’ll be here pretty soon to reunite with us that’s why I am working really hard so I can bring them over here in Las Vegas!. I know they’ll be here someday.

Now the Grand Finale the bottom left is Albert Hallado El Presidente ahemm…. he’s the one who makes all the big business decisions, he also makes sure that the crew is being taken care of.

He makes sure the revenue is constantly flowing to my Paypal, ClickBank and Fantasos. Holy COW! That sounds very complicated don’t you think?

Well also I create products, do some mentoring and post here on my blog, my wife also tells me to pay all the bills and take out the trash and go to the store to get some snacks ! Ha! Ha! Ha!

Folks for the most part I was just kidding I just want to make this post fun but that’s my family up there. They’re the ones keeping me moving and giving me a reason when things are tough.OK! That’s all I have to say and thank you for meeting my family.

OH! Please make sure you leave me a comment my wife and the kids want to read it so please just say hi!!! Uncle John Delavera we’re expecting you to comment, especially the kids!
