Early
Years
My
family and I came from Cuba to the United States when I was just 1-year
old. When my family arrived in South Florida, my father took 3 jobs and
my mother 2 and saved up enough money so they can start their own
traditional business. My father was an entrepreneur and he started his
own furniture business. He worked very hard and built quite a
significant company. Then unexpectedly, my father passed away and I took
over the business at a very young age.
Furniture was all I ever knew and I always thought that I’d be in the
furniture business for the rest of my life. My father used to tell me
“Son, be careful and don’t make the same mistake a lot of people make -
they learn a profession or a certain career or business and they get
stuck in that profession.” He also said “Be careful you don’t become a
‘furniture man’; the fact that you know about furniture doesn’t mean you
are going to focus just on that. There will be some other opportunities
that will come your way and you need to be open to looking at them.”
This is a big mistake most of the people make – they develop a
profession or a particular business and they get stuck with it all their
life. And that is what happened to me - I became a ‘furniture man’.
Hurricane Andrew
In August of 1992
Hurricane Andrew hit South Florida and we literally lost everything.
Every time I think back on what had happened, I always thank God for
that event. I believe everything happens for a reason in life. As long
as we moved forward with a positive attitude, learning from our
challenges, things will always work out for the better.
Starting the Business
After
the hurricane, I started to work for a big company for a couple of
years, a friend of mine approached and introduce me to the “direct
selling industry”. Initially I was not interested and it took him a year
and a half to show me the business plan. I was used to traditional
business, I did not understand home based businesses. I got involved
anyways just in case it did work. Then I started making a little bit of
money, and it all started to make sense.
After I had been in the business for a little while, a friend of mine
called me – a friend that I started in the business and he wanted to
thank me. He said “Carlos, I really want to thank you. I finally got
something for my children’s future.” So I said to myself, “Wait a minute
– what is this? What I’m not seeing here?” So I quickly got serious. I
didn’t get involved when I signed the application; I got involved really
when I started to see how people’s eyes would be opened up and how hope
would be back into their lives again. Finally they have something to
control in their destiny. I realized that this business is about helping
others first, so I started working, studying and applying personal
development principles where I can truly help others.
So I started to help people achieve what they wanted. I sat down with
them to find out what it was exactly they wanted in their lives. I
started to learn techniques on how to develop financial plans – first by
finding out what they wanted, such as saving for their children’s
college education, building that dream house, buying a new car, taking
vacations with their families, etc. When I started working with them in
achieving their dreams and reaching their goals, it was then when I
realized that this business is about one thing: The more you help
people achieve what they want, the more what you want will become a
reality. It’s not necessary any sales experience in order to have
success in this industry.
The Lifestyle
Our dreams and goals
changed quite drastically in the beginning. When we started the
business, it was for my children’s education and that I could take
at20least 4 vacations a year with my family. Since then, we have helped
thousands of people around the world to become financially independent.
We have played a significant role in opening and launching over 15
countries around the world. I would also make sure to stay with them no
matter how long it took until their success had been achieved.
Today we live a life most people only dream about, I say that with the
humblest of heart, I wish that and more for you. Today I’m in control of
my time to spend with my family and do as I choose no longer is anybody
else in control of my time or how much they think I’m worth. Today I
dedicate my time in helping others developing themselves into all they
can become.
My
Commitment
Helping others is
not about any particular service or product, it is about helping people
to achieve what they really want. Over the years of creating a system of
duplication, I have learned techniques and ways to help people achieve
their goals and dreams.
My
commitment to you is to always be realistic, honest, specific and guide
you to your success. I have dedicated my adult entire life to study and
applying principles of success of which I want to share with you, that
is truly my purpose in life.
I am committed to take you step by step, in achieving the person you
want to become, financially and personally.
Especially in today’s unstable economy, people are looking to either to
become better at what they do and developing a plan B. I would help you
to do that.
Here’s to your
success and congratulations for starting your journey of success.
Your friend,
Carlos Rey
