I knew that it wouldn't make much sense without the overall story. I am not going to go into vivid details and I am going to try to keep it at least remotely readable. Consider this the "lite" version.

Overview: All of the cliché' stuff that leaves most people broken, I've lived it and survived it. Eventually I hit rock bottom. I was lost and empty. I somehow found faith and the law of attraction almost at exactly the same time. The list of things that I have prayed/manifested is massive. Not only have I been blessed to have these things, but in multiple situations they were almost impossible.

I am currently on the road to building the biggest manifestation of my life. I wanted to share the story, the journey, and the success with everyone I could. So, as insane as the stuff below is, there are two reasons I am putting it out there. First, to show that if I can do it anyone can do it. Second, because I am a firm believer that you cannot learn from your mistakes if you don't make them. As odd as it may sound... All of these mistakes actually make sense. In retrospect I can see exactly what I took away from each failure/period of my life. 

Cliché' checklist:

I built my faith unintentionally. Even after obtaining things I wanted, I had this empty and lost feeling. Mostly because I realized that even with the pay raise it wasn't going to help me get what I wanted. A home of my own. One that wouldn't go away or cause me to constantly stress. I couldn't even try to get a mortgage because of paying rent that was on par or more expensive than a mortgage. I had accepted defeat until that last bullet above. That is when I realized that I had placed it in God's hands and that I had came out the other side of the marriage better than when I went in. About a year after the divorce (pending) I stumbled upon investing. After I flipped $5 into $2,000 within a month, it made me realize I had found my purpose.

The feeling I had was indescribable. I had forgot all about it. I had something I had lost entirely. Hope. I have spent every day since trying to build a business and contribute something positive to the world. The very first project I came up with was this one. While the idea of "Something Out Of Nothing" has evolved - the foundation of it remains the same. A series that I call "The Comeback". I wanted to openly and transparently show every cent earned towards my goal and how it was obtained. Oddly enough, even Open Collective was a bit of a miracle. I had written it in a Word document and stumbled upon it today. I had been questioning my choice of "goal tracking" app. I figured a third party platform designed for exactly what I was trying to do might be the way the go. So.... Here we are... Here is how it works...
