Hello and Welcome!
Woohoo! Glad you could make it! My name is Garrett Miller and I am a dreamer, coach and entrepreneur. I am also a full-time student of both college and LIFE, as well as a big, wacky kid (seriously, I’m pretty big). On this site, you will find a variety of content created to help YOU with internet marketing, specifically within the realm of SEO and outsourcing, and all things related: social media, entrepreneurship, imagination, leadership, personal mastery and anything else to help you get to where you want to be. I believe that a seed of greatness lies within all of us, and I’m here to help you grow your seed into a FOREST as I continue to grow mine.
This blog was created to show the world that ANYONE and EVERYONE is 100% responsible for and in control of their own destinies, and to give you the tools you will need to chisel your own beautiful reality, whatever you may seek.
Now, from the beginning…
I was born and raised an only child in Sacramento, California. My parents divorced at the age of three and most of my childhood was spent living with my mother. While I was never particularly shy, I had a hard time “getting people” and because of this I grew up with very few friends. Thankfully, having this problem would later force me to face it head-on and obliterate it, adding one more stepping stone to my path of personal growth.
At the age of 12, full custody was given to my father, who simply wasn’t ready for the responsibility at that time. He provided me with what I needed and more or less left me alone. I motivated myself to go to high school, took public transportation every day and saw to it that I got the grades I needed to get the hell out of there and onto my own life. My grandma was the only person alive, including me, who was TRULY conscious of my situation, and because of this she always went the extra mile to keep me headed in the right direction. Before my senior year of high school, though, she was diagnosed with brain cancer. Determined to make her proud, I crushed my SATs, applied for all the scholarships I could and got into almost every school which I applied to. I chose San Diego State University (thank God!) and arranged to move to beautiful San Diego to begin this new chapter of my life.
Welcome to College!
So, there I was, a lone 17 year-old standing at the gate of a new life. I had made it… or so I thought. I believed that since I had gotten myself to college, all of the growing up I needed to do would happen on its own while I had myself a good time. With no one to tell me otherwise, I went into my first year of college with the absolute opposite of the right mindset. Mistake after mistake, most of which were due to poor time management and a liberal misuse of wishful thinking, I finished my first semester with a 1.6 GPA. Although I had made a ton of friends and had a great time, I didn’t realize that I was the sole cause of my own shortcomings. I continued into my second semester making only the slightest of adjustments, telling myself that everything would right itself. Oh, how wrong I was…
The world turns upside down…
On April 6, 2009, my grandmother passed away. Mimi was the only person on the planet who believed unwaveringly that I could, should and would achieve greatness, the kind of greatness that affects immeasurable positive change on the world… and she was gone. For the next couple of months, I lived my life in a state of what I can only call “lostness.” Unhealthy, self-destroying habits in place, a lack of motivation and my persistent state of depressed blankness led to my prompt termination from SDSU at the end of my second semester.
“It” presents itself…
Around that time, a friend introduced me to network marketing… And when I say “introduced,” I mean he texted me something along the lines of “Dude, we’re going to be RICH… Check your e-mail.” Little did I know that the powerpoint presentation included in that e-mail was the catalyst for a series of events that would positively change the lives of thousands, starting with myself.
It would be hard to explain how I felt or what I was thinking as I began my journey, apart from the word “yes.” “Yes” to growing up. “Yes” to creating wealth. “Yes” to writing my own page in history books. “Yes” despite my origins. “Yes” for Mimi. “Yes” to whatever this was going to bring… It didn’t matter what obstacles presented themselves, because… “Yes.”
Almost instantly after I made the adamant decision to change my life for the better, I began to think differently. I realized, almost all at once, the blessings that were already in my life: health, friends and access to the limitless abundance of the Universe. Immediately, I was thankful for every aspect of my existence, and almost inexplicably, I continued to gain more and more to be thankful for… namely my readmittance and recommitment to SDSU.
Bada-bing!
At the start, all I knew was that the journey I had embarked on was mine and mine alone. After almost a year of persistent failures, riding an “emotional rollercoaster” I could have never imagined, hundreds of hours/thousands of dollars spent on training (which I could NOT afford by the way) and experiencing the personal growth that I needed to experience, I was FINALLY ready to really grab the reins of my own destiny and ride.
I couldn’t tell you the day, or even the week, it finally “clicked” for me; I can only tell you that it did. I had the tools, the training, the attitude and most importantly the VISION (what I call ambition + blind faith) that I needed to succeed… I was ready. Equipped with the vast spectrum of knowledge I had absorbed (everything from “Home Business Receptions” to effective social media use), the failures I had grown from (more than plenty) and the self-discipline I had learned (yes, self-discipline is a learnable skill), I got to work on “building my empire online.” At first, it seemed like there was simply too much to do. Then, the focus and discipline I had invested over time began to show. Now, I’m probably the happiest 19 year old on the planet. I have the power to live life on my own terms, and even though I have decided to finish college, I know that whatever degree(s) I end up with will just be eye-candy. I can’t describe a better feeling than that.
Garrett can help…
To this day, I continue to embrace this beautiful experience known as life and encourage others to do the same. As I continue to learn, grow and build more wonderful relationships with awesome people, my drive to help others water their own seed of greatness only continues to increase. It’s almost funny; the hardest part is getting people to acknowledge their seed’s existence in the first place! Once you accept the reality that the power to attract whatever you seek already lies within you, ANYTHING is possible.
Wealth, happiness, freedom… The things that ALL HUMANS wish for are just within our grasp. However, the Universe only rewards these things to those of us who are willing to struggle and grow. The more you struggle, the more you grow, the more you will be rewarded. Now, I recommend that you take a look inside yourself, decide what you’re willing to struggle for, maybe even suffer for, and begin your own quest for true empowerment.
You + Me = ?
I solemnly promise that if you subscribe to my blog, open your eyes to the unlimited beauty and abundance of the Universe and truly COMMIT to your own growth, then no matter the circumstances you find yourself in, there is no limit to what we can create. I will hold nothing back in the content I develop and I will be as true with you as I am with myself. Hold up your end of the bargain, and I’ll see you at the top!
Love Always,
Garrett Miller
