   • Getting Fired From My Job... Was The Best ...  

Why getting fired was one of the best things that has happened to me... Its not what you think!

In 2007 i was an bitterly arrogant pompous little punk who thought he knew what he wanted to do with his life... Some people may still be willing to debate on whether or not i changed haha

I believed my job was holding me back from accomplishing my dreams and goals.

When i got fired... and rightfully so.... I said finally I am free! Freedom! (i love braveheart!)

So there i was trying to make it happen... not even having a plan on how to make it happen... and not even knowing what it was!

That is actually when i started this youtube channel and started making videos... if you watched any of my videos back then id just like to say sorry lol they were a little rough to say the least!

I was dabbling here and there and spending all the money i had saved which wasnt much at all.

Once i burned through all my money i had to look at other options... I sold stuff... put a lien on my car... borrowed money from friends and family and even canceled out my 401k...

I was completely broke... My dad offered me $35 per week to mow the grass... I didnt even have money to put gas in the car so i had to sell my xbox and all my video games just to get gas money lol

So there i was broke... all my big ideas and plans were growing an anemic rate... and there was no light at the end of the tunnel...

It was a break down... but it was when i discovered through this experience was what i wanted to do with my life... I wanted to help, inspire and motivate other people. and i wanted to become a professional triathlete...

It came neither by some miraculous vision nor by some blinding light experience on the road of life, it was a response to an inner urge that gradually came upon me. MLK jr

Sometimes in life we have to have breakdowns to experience breakthroughs!

So great i knew what i wanted to do with my life... But i was still broke!

Then my friend said... Ryan companies hiring... Same company that i got fired from...

At this moment i was at a crossroads... If i went back to work was i a failure... did it mean that i couldnt make it in the real world... did it mean i wasnt good enough...

I had a conversation with a mentor of mine and he said

ryan what is it that you want?

I want to help and inspire others... i want to be a professional triathlete...

You must be willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish your dreams and goals.

In case you didnt hear that.. YOU must be willing to do whatever it takes!

So i swallowed my pride, humbled myself and went back to work.

So what changed? ME... My perspective philosophy and attitude

Instead of a job being something that was holding me back... it was the thing pushing me forward!

My job allowed me to pursue my passions and calling! It was my seed money to create anything i wanted to create! It funded all of my racing and allowed so many opportunities to come into my life.

Getting fired was one of the best things that happened to me because it changed me as a person... it changed my attitude, my beliefs and philosophy! It allowed me to discover my passions...

Humbling myself and going back to work was even better!

Im not sure where you are in your life right now... But know that if you are breaking down... a breakthrough is right around the corner as long as you hang in there! Also remember that you must be willing to do whatever it takes to accomplish your dreams and goals!

So when i say you must be willing to do what it takes to accomplish your dreams and goals... Make sure its Moral, Legal and ethical... dont be an idiot!

So there i was riding my bike 20 miles to the gym because i couldt afford gas money... and boom got a flat tire... no big deal let me change it... then as i was riding home the same day... boom another flat... I freaked out... tubes cost $5 and i just used two of them... you know your life needs to change when you are stressed out about $10
