Todays guest on the Join Up Dots archive show is Mr Michael O'Neal, the podcasting master behind the hit Itunes show "The Solopreneur Podcast".
The top ranked business show teaching online marketing and entrepreneurship skills.
Michael is a man who quite simply without him, then I wouldn't be on the mic today.
So you know where to send all your complaints too.
He is a born entrepreneur with a fascinating story, of successes, setbacks, leaps of faith, and finding his unique path with the guidance of John Lee Dumas and Pat Flynn.
Just like Steve Jobs he has worked on getting to the highest level of confidence to deliver what the world is looking for.
Growing up in Philadelphia, the thought of being the host of his own podcast show was the last thing on his mind. He was a normal type of kid, obsessed with sport, finding trouble at school, and generally being a kid.
But unfortunately that freedom of thought and energy changed when he was moved from his beloved Philly, and taken down to Florida, and it seems to me this was the start of him looking for his path in life.
He didn’t fit in down in the Sunshine State, so as soon as he could, he got himself back up North, and discovered one of the first dots in his life that links him to where he is today…the internet.
He was fascinated by the worldwide web, so developed skills to be a web designer.
And that was his life for fifteen years, until unfortunately his parents both passed away in a very short time, and he found himself sitting with just $14 dollars in his pocket.
He was over 30, with a decision forced upon him. Would he accept the punches that life had dealt him, or would he start fighting back?
And that descision was made and he took the steps that made him “Know too much” and not want to work for anyone else again?
He was going to become a solopreneur and own his own future.
But how did he know he had the skills to be a success in the online arena?
How did he know where his true passions lie?
And does he regret inspiring guys like me to jump into the pool too?
Well lets find out as we bring onto the 100th show to start joining up dots, the man on the mike, the host of the “Solopreneur Hour podcast”, the one and only Mr Michael O’Neal! | Show notes: http://joinupdots.com/
