Sean Ogle – Location Rebel

Four  years ago, my life sucked.  I was working 50 hours a week as a financial analyst.  Suit, tie and shaving every day.  I was miserable.  I had this incurable wanderlust and desire to experience the world. I hated the fact that each and every day I was working harder than ever to fund someone else’s lifestyle while accomplishing no goals of my own.

I wasn’t traveling to exotic places.  I wasn’t building any real world, useful skills.  I had very few good stories. And most importantly, I wasn’t doing any of the stuff that I actually enjoy doing in my life.

Then there was a moment when everything changed.  In February of 2009 I took a trip to Brazil for Carnival in Rio. I’d been planning it for over a year, and had to beg my boss to allow me to use all of my vacation time to be able to take the trip.

One beautiful, sunny morning I was walking down Copacabana Beach, trying to balance the emotions of living in the moment and taking in all the beauty of the beach – all the while knowing that soon I would be back home, unable to take another vacation like this for 12 months.

Then it hit me… I should be able to do this everyday. I should be the one who dictates when and where I’m able to work and travel, not my boss.

That day, I made a resolution to live a life that would be exciting.  One that others would aspire towards, and do it in a way that was on my terms, not the terms of my employer.

That was 2009.  Now, I’m making more money than I did in my old job… working less hours… and doing stuff I love every single day.

Throughout my transformation I learned there’s a steep disconnect between what most people believe vs. what I’ve actually found to be true.

You will run into opposition in your quest to take control of your life.  In fact I’d be willing to bet there’s a good chance that you already have encountered some of this negativity.

Has anyone close to you ever tried to remind you of the “amazing oportunity you’ve been given to have a job in such a bad economy?”

Or worse, have they labeled you unappreciative for wanting something different?  If you’ve read this far, then I’m willing to bet you can relate.

People like that not only make you feel guilty about the situation, but more importantly, they make you doubt yourself. It’s very easy to start to question whether or not you have what it takes to be an entrepreneur – or if you’ll ever be able to find a job like that again.

That’s a scarcity mentality that there’s no place for in Location Rebel.  Within this program you’ll learn to adopt a mentality of abundance, as you realize there are limitless options in your life.

Job security is a funny thing.  This is the ultimate fallacy when it comes to “what they say vs what is true”.  Traditional thinking is that to be truly secure you had to have a comfortable job with a decent paycheck.

Well as millions of people have learned over the last few years, their “job security” was more of a myth than anything else.True job security lies in the skills you create for yourself, and the network of people you surround yourself with.  With the right skill set you will always be able to find work – whether it’s for someone else or yourself.  And as you grow your network of friends, colleagues, and acquaintances, you’ll never have any shortage of people to turn to when times get rough.

That is real job security – or job security 2.0 as I call it.

I mean it when I say your security lies in the skills you have.  In most jobs you learn a ton of specific skills. You learn how to properly format that Excel document to make block stock trades.  You know exactly how to process a new client.  You have that cold calling sales script down cold.

But once you leave that job, how are those skills going to benefit you in the real world?  The reality is, most of them won’t.

In Location Rebel we teach you broad skills that will be applicable no matter what. You can do freelance work and charge money for these skills.  You can leverage them in your personal projects, or as most of you will do, you’ll do both.

It’s time to start building some assets, rather than liabilities.  These skills are assets which will keep you in demand.  The other specific skills are liabilities.  You get so comfortable doing them, that it becomes second nature.  That comfort is what keeps so many people in situations that aren’t great.  They’re good enough.

Screw good enough. You want the best life you can possibly have.

This transformation wasn’t without a lot of hard work. I’ve spent thousands of hours and thousands of dollars trying to figure out what works when it comes to building a lifestyle business.

The reality is, once I figured out the secrets, I found it isn’t that hard. You just have to have the right approach.

This is where most people fail.

It only seems right that after spending all of this time learning how to make this lifestyle work, that I share it with all of you.  Now you get the sum of all of my trial, error, and research packaged up into a nice little gift.
