Hi Everyone,
Two weeks in and we are almost halfway to my goal! Thank you so much for being a part of this project!
I wanted to take a minute and talk a little bit about why I believe this book is so important at this time in our society. Since 1993 the online community has grown to approximately 3 billion people. Within the next 3 years, or around 2018, the online community is projected to grow another 3 billion, most of whom are coming from poverty stricken areas of our world. For the first time they're gaining an opportunity to participate in the global economy with entrepreneurial ventures and to share their purpose with a broader platform.
In addition to this, every year around this time, we have new college graduates entering corporate america and other aspects of the workforce. Many of these graduates will have 10-15 jobs before retirement age. Although our job market is becoming healthier, our college graduates are becoming discouraged or unmotivated because they can't find a job in their field right off the bat. This is one of the reasons that we have millennials moving back home with their parents. (The Today Show did a segment on this topic this morning. I encourage you to watch it on the website for more information.)
You might be thinking, "This information is great, but what does it have to do with your book and your mission?" If I had to sum up my mission in one sentence it would be, "my purpose is to assist others in finding their purpose through helping them overcome life's challenges." The most efficient way for me to fulfill my purpose is by sharing my story and being reliable to the raising billions and the recent graduates. One thing that I emphasize in this book as part of the 6 links, is you have to link up. What I mean by this, is you have to find a mentor who has gone through similar struggles and is further along in their journey. Mentors guide us through sharing their knowledge and experience which can act as a road map to our success.
Thank you once again for contributing to my publishizer campaign. Now that you know more about my life and my mission, would you consider sharing this campaign with 3 other people? This will help me CRUSH my goal and gain exposure with publishers.
Thanks,
Blake Shelley
