Up until this point, we’ve essentially been covering the requirements and prerequisite knowledge necessary to increase your chances of building a successful online business.
Today marks a turning point.
It’s time to begin focusing on your personal situation, and to turn our attention to your future business…
(Watch this video…)
Main points:
Without vision, your business probably won’t succeed.
I describe vision as being able to “see” a clear picture of your fulfilled goals in your mind.
It’s like the box cover of a difficult puzzle…
You must begin with the end in mind.
Almost every success in my life has come AFTER having a vision for it. (For example, when I won the state championship, and every time I launch a product)
The successful business owners that I’ve known ALL have vision.
It’s kind of like looking at the world from 30,000 feet. You see the big picture, and not the problems.
If you lose sight of your vision, you lose hope. And if you lose hope, it’s game over.
As we progress in the lessons, we’ll keep moving forward step by step, but if you don’t start by getting a vision, further efforts could be somewhat futile.
If you set your target too low, you may hit it, but there is almost no chance that you will exceed it. On the other hand, if you set your target too high, you may fail, but you will be further along than the “low” target. Therefore it’s better to set your vision higher.
One of the biggest things I see holding people back is a “victim mentality”.
“Formulate and stamp indelibly on your mind a mental picture of yourself as succeeding. Hold this picture tenaciously. Never permit it to fade. Your mind will seek to develop this picture. Never think of yourself as failing; never doubt the reality of the mental image. That is most dangerous, for the mind always tries to complete what it pictures. So always picture ‘success’ no matter how badly things seem to be going at the moment.” – Norman Vincent Peale
Many of us have taken on a “just get by” mentality.
The size of your vision will dictate the size of the result.
YOU are valuable. Don’t sell yourself short.
Here’s my “disclaimer” that I forgot to include in the video…. “The mind of man plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps.” (Prov. 16:9)
Action steps:
I want you to take a moment to tell me your vision for your business. The vision can involve other areas of your life too, but since we’re working on building your business, it should be focused on your business.
It’s important to write your vision down, so go ahead and post it in the comments below. This is YOUR vision, and there is NO wrong answer.
Focus on the big picture. Don’t worry about the details of how you will get there. We’ll worry about that stuff when we learn about goal setting and business plans, and I’ll be talking about those things in the next lesson.
As always, you are welcome to post your questions and comments below.
Have a great day!
Hi Eric, thank you for the inspiring lessons!!…My goal for my business is the start out with affiliate marketing, ramping it up to a level to allow me to step back from my night job at a local factory. Prior to quiting that job, I will pay off my unsecured debts, and build a good cash base cushion for expanding business, and also emergencies.
My long term goal is to be able to build a museum dedicated to preserving old audio/video/motion picture recording media, and transferring it to the highest resolution digital recording technologies available for preserving for all current , and future generations. Services within the museum will also include customers to bring in there old family home movie films, family video tapes, old family tape recordings on the various mediums of audio technologies over the years, and restore these properly on a high resolution digital copy for preserving these family treasures for future family generations to see, and hear the sights and sounds of there past relatives, many of which may have already passed before they were even born!!…To me, audio, visual recording mediums are sort of like a “time machine” in that we can step back to a past event each time we listen to, or watch a recorded event.
The museum will have departments dedicated to also preserving, and restoring old audio/video component electronics such as amplifiers, receivers, tape recorders in all audio/video formats developed over the years, in addition to restoring and displaying old radios and TV’s from the earliest models to the latest cutting edge technologies, and everything in between…Much more will be included in the museum, such as a fully restored vintage movie theater styled in the 1930’s “Art-Deco” styling, showing both old and new movies in the highest resolutions possible, and movies that are fit for all ages to see!!…I will also offer services online, such as schematic sheets, specification sheets, parts lists for anyone wanting to restore an old radio, stereo, TV, jukebox…etc and will be able to get good, clear downloads of this information for a small fee.
Ultimate plan will be the ability to give to community, and charities…Friends, Lloyd.
Here is my vision:
I plan to have many online business bringing in income of at the lowest 1 million dollars per year. These business will be: information sites, health and fitness sites; I’ll sell unique and new products, my new inventions, and whatever else I fancy. I will have so much time on my hands, that I will be able to take a cosmetology class, and open my own business cutting and styling hair (that I love to do!). I’ll get married to some great guy, have many kids (and maybe adopt some), and have a wonderful life. (With my $$$ we’ll have so many options of things to use it for: enjoyment, helping others, fixing up our community, etc.)
Yup, that’s my vision. It goes on, though!
Eric, my vision is to bulid my business to at least 10K per month by the end of 2011, take my first real vacation to Hawaii with my family,get out of this tiny apartment. Continue to built a strong income to enable me to donate to my favorite charities, start trust funds for my 4 gread grand children, and pay for private health care when I reach that point in my life.
Eric,
I’m so excited since I started listening to your videos that I get goosebumps!
My vision is to make a positive difference in the lives of someone everyday. There are 4 specific ways this will be accomplished:
1. Continue speaking and developing products that generate income. I plan on doubling the speaking gigs for 2011 (over 2010) and am working on a product that I will introduce to Clickbank for others to sell (once I learn how to do that from you!) Monetary goal of $100,000 by April 1, 2011.
2. Use proceeds from above to promote and touch people’s lives through The Tiara Experiment. This is a free 30-day plan that will help a person overcome and elimiate the self-limiting thoughts and beliefs that hold them back. Your dreams are your kingdom – Go claim them!
3. Offer both of these programs as teleseminars by April 1, 2011.
4. Find the “right” employees for our organic dairy farm.

I want an online business that will afford me the joys of traveling and spending time with my family — and do it debt free. I want to help my grandchildren with their college, which is something I did not get to do for my children. I want to donate to the needy. This will all take a million dollars a year. My vision – a successful and profitable online business.
My Vision is to have a im business on the internet, that will help me first to pay off all my debt. Then I would like develop a businees to the point, where I can leave a legacy for my family.I would also like to trained young people to learn this business also. thank you Eric for your lessons
Hello Eric,
My vision is to sell information products on the internet and to make my first million with great marketing ideas and very high quality simple to understand videos. My first year 2011 I will break 100,000 and next year 1,000,000 all while learning learning learning. I will teach people how to stay healthy and strong. A win win situation. From there I will start many websites in simple formats with inventions and more information products. I will work 20 hour weeks and make enough money to ensure a great financial future for my grandchildren and their grandchildren simply by keeping them educated with what I learn. I look forward to helping others become financially free and becoming partners with people that have the potential to sell their knowledge and ideas through me.The most exciting thing to me is time freedom. I will also become an expert at seeing ideas to market and endless possibilities with the internet.
Hey Eric,
Thank you so much, for me you are the missing link. By experience I can say: when I was poor my vision kept me going, when I was wealthy my vision kept me going, now I am broke my vision keep me alive. Here is my vision: A life where money is not an issue, period. I am from Haiti I have family and friends that depend on me so I have to make enough money to take care of my wife and my three children, and help those who are less fortunate. Last but not least become an inventor, only $11000.00 is between me and that dream. With my vision I can have whatever I dream of….
Take care, God bless
My vision is to be debt free. As well as my family. I would like to recreate my families castle here in the states. Herbertshire Castle. I would also like to distribute Muirhead Whiskey here in the states. With my internet business on autopilot.
Eric:
Bible Quote “as a man thinkest in his heart so is he” in other words “you are where you are, doing what you are doing, earning the kind of money you earn because of the predominate thoughts that occupy your mind” You are absolutely right, and super good and viable information to put to use.
My vision (which incidently gets frowned upon because of my age – 78 soon to be 79) is
1st. Not to sit in a rocker on the back porch and doze half of the day.
2nd. Not to spend my time with nay-sayers, I do not want to become one.
3rd. Count my blessings daily, before I go to sleep and when I awake.
4th. Review in my mind my accomplishments, not my set backs.
5th. Remind myself of the freedom of choices I can make.
6th. See myself enthusiastly pursuing my dream and vision of earning a minimum of 100,000.00 monthly from my internet ventures and accomplishing if by Jan 1, 2011.
7th. Retain an after tax income of 700,000.00 annualy.
8th. Pay myself 10% after tax for my personal efforts.
9th. Invest 10% in silver and gold to pass along to my loved ones upon my demise.
10th. Donate the balance of 80% to help those who are the most needful, not only in the US but around the world.
11th. Continue to work a minimum of 6 hours daily learning and building my online presense and income.
12th. Finaly but not least, keep an open mind, choose those whom I can trust, and listen, listen, listen.
13th. Gain more knowledge in regard to internet marketing and apply that knowledge.
14th. Focus on the fact that knowledge alone is not power, it is the application of knowledge wherin power lies.
Thanks again Eric. You are a blessing in disguise, have happy and prosperous new year.

My vision is to attain a level of success where I can live my life as I please not having to worry about finances and money as money is only a tool to get what we want. I want the financial independance to so what I want WHEN I want without asking banks or lenders for money to buy things like airline tickets as I don’t believe in credit cards or borrowing. I believe in living within one’s means and due to the economies our fathers have built we are required to live within that system until someone changes it. So long as our society is based on the dollar I will strive to be independant and free from the burden of others and assist those that seek to follow in any way I am able. I do NOT have a dollar value as that is an unstable system. What I do have is a vision that I cannot explain but it is how I see my life in it’s ideal situation … a small piece of land I can call my own and hunt and fish on as I please without intrusions from government or other officials and be able to provide for my family and myself living happy and fruitful lives.
I have had this vision for some time. To honestly work at marketing my own product, to have a constant income. To maintain a sustainable business that will allow me to travel or all those things that I cannot do now, having been scammed too many times,over a two year period 4-5 times each month.
Hi Eric,
Being 72 years old I am approaching the statistical life length in my country (77.3 years for men). My first vision is thus to beat the world record in life length considerably – as I have not achieved much in my life this far – from 112 years to at least 150 years being well and active all the time. That´s the minimum I need to meet my other goals.
I´ve kept fiddling around trying to establish an internet business for more than three years now without getting anywhere except for comitting all possible mistakes, something that a lot of internet marketers have told me being an almost compulsary prerequisite for success. You Eric is about the first to tell me that it isn´t so.
It is time to put down my feet and I think I can manage with your kind assistance.
Here is the next vision:
I will build a sustainable business during 2011. I will systematically generate incomes taking me towards economical freedom during the next two years from this business. My company will concentrate upon health and long life from different aspects, branded personal company name will be Kurt EJ Mattsson.I will support family i e children and grandchildren better, as soon as my and my wifes financial positions have become secure.These goals reached I will consider what more I can do for the world.
Having observed that USA tends to win wars – something for us Europeans to be grateful for – but loose the peace that follows, I would be anxious to find ways to support constructive projects that contribute to healing of afterwar wounds.Examples are Greg Mortenson´s girl schools in Afghanistan, Percy Barnevik´s Hand in Hand organisation that has helped to start 106,000 female small businesses in South Africa, India and Afghanistan.
I will do my very best to deliver real value to my customers while developing my business towards something like a net profit of one million dollars within five years. There are hurdles to overcome along the road. I´m confident that I cannot fail now that I have your backing.
Best regards,
Kurt Mattsson

My vision is to run a successful internet business as a super affiliate earning $1,000,000 a year. Whilst outsourcing the business working a 12 hour week.
My vision is to create an internet business that will produce several streams of income with the result that I can travel to the many places on this earth that inspire me. I ultimately want to create a foundation that will encourage people to use their many talents for the good of humanity.
hey eric
my vision is to create a successful online business following your guidelines to success. I dream of the idea of making money while I sleep or vacation. My financial goal has no limit but I would like to start to see progress within the next 6 months even if its minor. I have some ideas of what businesses I would like to be successful at but I want to start with what you are presenting and take it from there. I’m very confident I will be successful because the passion is there. Thanks and keep up the good work!
My vision is to be financially set so that I do not have to work out of the house, worry about the next bill to pay and try to get my health back on line. My health has gone down due to the stress of working at a job where they hold it over your head everyday. I show horses and shoot competitive archery, so I need to be able to promote those also. I want to be able to make at least 6 digits a year so that I can pay off the debts and work for myself.
My vision is not my own… This vision is born of the spirit and not the flesh. Sure it is possible to have “success” as man would see, but that falls short and has no lasting value from the true universal sense of being successful. The American dream is just a dream as you wake up to harsh reality and see your own sinful condition. Our life is just a breath and all is vanity! Success is not measured by how much money you have, or how much you can get- (all this talk is selfish). It is measured by how much man can give to help their fellowman without expecting to get anything back, even willing to die for your brother. When our life is moved/directed by the love and Spirit of God, we are destined be a success in God’s eyes, being transformed by beholding the image of the Son of God, Jesus Christ. That is why any vision without God, no matter how great it is in a human perspective is so low it is not worthy of God’s grace. Let our vision sore as an eagle even in midst of hardship, persecution and death, it will transcend above the stormy clouds where we cannot be moved! Where are you putting your trust, in self, because that will fail …or in God, our Creator, Sustainer, and Redeemer! The desire of my heart is to live and die for the cause of Christ by the power of His grace- even if it means being faithful unto death no vision can be greater. He has already gained the victory for all who will believe in Him. I am tired of the comforts of America, I want to suffer the affliction with my brethern rather than enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season, for to die in Christ is gain, and nothing in this world compares or offers the peace, joy and fulfillment of experiencing the grace and glory of God! Being a full-time missionary in home and abroad is the vision of visions. Why not taste and see that the Lord is good? Read the book of John and look for Jesus. Ask yourself is this the kind of person I would like to have in my life, if not, drop the book and move on… but if so, just ask Him to enter into your life… you will see what I mean… If you are unsure or need to talk about it, you are free to contact me. Email is servant08@gmail.com, and number is 484.320.0200. All the best, Ryan.
My vision is to be able to take my sons on vacations. I am 71 and have two adopted sons 14 and 15 (the joy of my life) to do this I must have an online business that makes at least 100,000 a year. I live in Mississippi and would like to help the poor in my area to learn how to help themselves. I can see the joy on my boys faces when I achieve this and I will.
Getting a Vision for My business
I want to be a business owner online. My company will own and operate several authority sites focusing on health, alternate wealth and communications technologies.
Then, I want to duplicate this success as a business owner who caters to small and business owners marketing and product development.
I want to delegate the parts of this business to others who have a desire and passion for their art, craft or business skill.
Every time I drive by two particular buildings, I see my company on the top floor. I will manage the company as an overseer and move projects along. I will leave the financial, administrative work for others
My vision for my life is to become a premier game changer in the area of eliminating preventable diseases through my new blog and community. Specifically, to make type II diabetes and obesity a thing of the past.
Additionally, through my health blog and work from home website, finance my family’s future, and begin Philanthropic endeavors for young people, women, elderly, poor and selected causes the Lord lays before me.
Hello Eric. My vision is to make $500,000 per year online and travel to the most beautiful countries with my wife but most of all take the best care of my family. Eric these videos of you have giving me so much information and I have learned so much from them. I really want this for myself and I am ready to put alot of hard work into this.
THANKS SO MUCH
DAN
My vision is to take my time, learn all I can, establish a successful online business, first as an affiliate, then a an owner. Make atleast a couple hundred grand a year, so I can spend time with my elderly parents and family on the East Coast, and have them visit me here in Lake Tahoe.
My vision for my future is to run a successful internet buisness that will keep me comfortable for the rest of my short life.
As im in my sixties, it dosnot give me much time to swan about to much.
regards Stu
My vision is to create an online business to my native country with native language (because it is easy to compete with local websites, and to see the respond here), but our market is quite small, so the business must be also international, (with english of course).
Btw, Eric, if you read this, when I was younger I had this marketer view about things happening around, but somehow I lost it. I think the biggest reason was struggling with my headaches almost 15 years. I was not a salesman anyway, because I was so damn shy, but I saw opportunities around me. But I couldn’t do anything with them:) So, I had to do something which was not demanding so much selling/marketing. And I want that ability back, to see things again – not so shy anymore:) I have couple of ideas which I must check is there enough demand for them in the market. I don’t know where this came during this lesson: I want 49.000 € sales/month, it’s around 63 -64.000 $ and more time to do what I want most.
-Hannu-

Hello!
I have only 2 visions and that is not have any bosses and to make sure my 10 year old don’t have to go through this s…. Excuse the thought there just wasn’t any other way to say it.
daniel
My goal is to leave a legacy to my children, grand children and now great grand children.
At 74 years of age and a retired chaplain I want to leave my ministries and help the needy and also help the Jews in Israel
visionairs are those how profecise !
the treu meaning of live !
those how dream for life !
This is my vision:
My vision for business is to be debt free, own my own home free and clear. And a few minutes ago when I went to the store for my husband I found the home I would like to own or at least one similar to it. Since both of my sons are in the military I want to make enough money to visit them whenever I want no matter where they are stationed. My business must be able to keep a steady stream of money coming in even when I am on those trips with a minimum of work or effort from me. So that translates into a minimum of $500,000 a year, with a 15 to 20 hour work week.
Eric,
My passion is art and especially photography as art. I have in excess of 1,000 beautiful and salable prints that I have photographed and another 2,000 that are salable in some other form like greeting cards. I also have 500 photos of antique tractors. I would love to make $1,000,000 a year net. That would mean selling 183 prints ($2745) every day of the year. If my daily sales included my photographic prints, plus artwork, sculpture, wall décor, calendars, and greeting cards, I believe it is possible to reach this goal. I own or have access to all of these things plus e-books, videos and even audio MP3’s.
I want to work from any place 2-to 4-hours per day four to five days per week. I want income streams that are virtually maintenance free. I want my business to be as automated as possible without compromising customer service. I couldn’t maintain the businesses if I didn’t do this. I’d rather not have employees.
I want a cabin on a lake in northern Minnesota and/or a home in Duluth until my father passes away. I now live 160 miles away and it is hard spending enough time with this 87-year old man.
As an alternative:
I believe this would require 100 web sites with net earnings of $500/month each in 2011/ and another 100 websites in 2012 each earning a net of $500/month. During the years 2013 through 2015, I would maintain the website businesses at this level until I reached $5,000,000 in deposits. After that, I would let the business gradually shrink as I aged by not replacing those websites that under performed. I would be 65-years old by then.
I guess I need to have a better idea of what’s doable and stays within my goals stated above.
Steve
My Vision is to live debt free and provide a legacy my children and grandchildren will be proud of! I am 50 years old and have had to “SCRATCH” out a living most of my life. I was raised in the construction world where you only “make it” (a living) as long as you are physically fit enough to keep on keeping on!
I have been an electrician for the last 20+ years and my body is tired! I have said all of this to give you an idea of first off of my motivation behind the vision. I made a fair living with the building trades, but with living expenses as they are I have very little to show for it! Construction is hit and miss, feast or famine at best! My true vision is to first off, work smarter not harder. I have toyed with the idea of having an online bussiness for years. However going through a divorce several years ago and having to keep up with all the child support payments and too many other situations to mention here,I couldn’t devote the time to learn enough to get it going. Secondly and most importantly for me, I want to live the rest of my life being able to provide my children with a stronger,more secure foothold in this life and a better chance for success than I was given.
I have remarried, I want to be able to retire in style and not have to worry about just surviving on a S.S. system. My goal is to replace and increase our income to the point of being debt free, and to not to have to be enslaved to a time clock anymore, to be able to have the freedom to do or go any time we want anywhere we want. Eric you have shown me that this is not just a pipe dream any longer and that it is truly totally possible to envision myself earning at least $250,000 a year, in a couple of years! Thanks Eric for the Tips, You my friend are a Godsend to me and mine! God Bless!
Hi Eric,
Very good video for everyone and now i came to know how vision is so important. In past three year my vision was to earn money online and i was wondering how the people on internet do business and the companies earn millions of dollars each year. I see those companies and kept my vision to earn at least few bugs and from there i would copy the model. I am learning lots of theory and practical knowledge as an internet marketer, but i have not yet came to and end with my vision.
Hey Eric,
I am 59 years young and retired from the US Army after 36 years. I had a vision then of not working again but things changed a lot. My vision is to become very successful with my own business, I want to be able to do as I please and not have to worry about money. I also want to be able to teach my grand children this business and for them to build their own future. I have been working on this for over 4 years with no success but plan to learn your teachings and make it work. I will not quit!!
I want to create an NGO, that will establish a world wide network of self-sustaining vertical farms, to eliminate hunger.
That’s a great video. That video made me think on a deeper level..
BTW, that video is not just about IM.. It’s about life.. It’s sooooooooo inspiring. I’d even work for you to be an apprentice.. I could tell you work very very hard and read tons and tons of books and took massive massive right action..
My vision is create a successful online business in Music, Health, and Personal Development(Sales, Job Coaching,etc). I work for myself and I could live off of my business as well as I’m able to give and help my family in need. I travel around the world for me to be cultured.. Besides having passive income, I work because I choose to.. My health is outstanding, I live modestly, still frugal, live below my means, I take right action, I read books, listen to audio tapes for growing myself and get ideas, I never stop going to seminars. I’m helping more people than I ever did before. Oh and I have a dog that thinks she’s a cat.

I am 69 years young and I live with my daughter who is 50 years young. We are both widows and struggling. We need to upgrade our living conditions by finishing the house we live in so it is presentable to guests. We need medical and dental care, new clothes, and a better car. My first goal is to achieve this. Next I will pay off a mortgage. We will travel to exotic places and enjoy Gods beautiful creation. I will have time to spend with my grandchildren and great grandchildren, and help their parents with the high cost of educating them. I want to earn a million dollars a year.
Hi Eric,
My vision first is to have more than just 10% to give to my Lord’s Kingdom. Also my new husband & I both have some debt to take care of. So that’s gotta go! He & I have plans to buy a home on lots of acreage in the country with a big house & barn, and an in ground swimming pool. Brian, (my wonderful hubby,) has never had children of his own, and I’m no longer able to bear (short of a miracle, which would be ok too!) So we’ve been looking into adopting a few children to raise and home school in our country home which we’ll turn into a small farm with different large gardens on it, several horses, goats, a milking cow, a few beef cattle, chickens w/a big LOUD rooster to wake us up in the morning! I’ve always wanted to be able to hire workers in and around my farm, so I can be able to help other families by providing work when there isn’t any elsewhere. So I’d have a gardener, maid, and someone to just run things while we go on vacations and mission trips! Which is next on my list. We want to get a big RV or trailer and truck and travel around the country. I have 3 older children who I’d love to take with us on several of our vacations and mission trips. (My two oldest children really got me turned on to mission trips, so I know they’d love that!) And Brian is awesome on the guitar. I really want to do whatever I can to promote him & his music. And we’ll be making sure each of our children get good introductions to several things, (musical instruments, sports, etc.) to find their gifts & talents before they get too old to lose a vision for it. And then there’s the grandchildren to assist with there upbringing. For all of this I know it’ll take a good, solid, and continually flowing income. I intend on having several streams from online as well as off line. Lots of diversified investing.
I’m pushing to reach 6 figures annually by this time next year, and I know that once we’re doing that, 7 figures annually will be quite feasible. But not without work!
Like to live next to ocean have a nice boat some land. give my Mom a nice place to live with help that she needs. and the community I live in is very poor. and most families cant provide for the basic. I would like to be able to see that the kids and older people have plenty of food to eat. Also be able to the young to help build this county to be vital productive area where if some one needs help its there.
My vision is to be debt free by the end of 2012 by developing a Internet business that generates 1 million in gross revenue per year. I will tithe 10% of my gross to my church and another 20% will be used to help others within the US and abroad. I will travel on missionary trips to countries in South America and other parts of the world. I will follow the path that God has intended for me and help everyone I can for as many years as I have left on earth. I will take a vacation to go to the Masters, US Open and British Open golf tournaments. I will travel to see the sights on every continent.
Eric, My vison is to be successful in my endeavours on the internet. I will be comfprtable in my earnings and spend time with my wife in many nice places in and around the south of the US.We shall do what we want, when we want and with whom we want to do it with.
Not glamorous to some but thi sis what we want. Money is not the final measuring stick in this world.
Bob
A new beginning a new life so to speak where i am responsible for driving my own future and not reliant on others My self belief is massive and a positive work ethic is well engrained and a positive force for the future, motivation is so big that it bowls me over. I will succeed and that is something that i truly believe. Got the Patience of a saint so for the now the coin will come so no worries on that one for the now.
Oh and get my arse on a plane for the first time ever in me life would be a massive plus weird that may sound to some.
Nice One for the lessons ~ Inabit ~
Amen!
like it Melissa, give God the Glory due His Name!
Amen to what you said here…. in everything we do (even in the mundane), do it with joy remembering that we are working for the Lord (Whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him (Col 3:17))
I like this “help others to become debt-free forever, and to help friends, family, and even strangers come to know the love of Jesus Christ.”
You can also do this without the money or business
“manage God’s money well, to live a life that is glorifying to Jehovah God, and allows me to teach bible truths to others.”…..
we Need more people like you!
Love your friends…
