Howsit (How is it going - Commonly used in Hawaii)?

I'm Wally Carmichael and I'm from the 1900's.

I was born in 1969, grew up in the 70s and partied in the 80s, then I tried to grow up by joining the US Army in the early 90s.

As long as I can remember, I was that guy chasing the elusive 6 - 7 figure income, convinced that more money would bring the happiness and freedom I longed for. I racked up over $30K in credit card debt—twice—on my quest for financial success, doing everything the gurus in books, courses, and podcasts suggested. Yet, I was always frustrated, feeling like I was falling short of the income and lifestyle they promised.

Then one morning, I had an awakening of sorts.

I was sitting in the gazebo of our beach house in Hawaii, listening to yet another podcast on how to make more money while my youngest son played in the water.

My boy called out, "Dad, come in the water with me." I waved him off, showing him my phone—code for "I'm busy with something important." The look of disappointment on his face hit me hard.

And then I heard my wife's voice, though she wasn't there:

"Wally, what the hell are you chasing?"

In that moment, I realized I was ungratefully chasing a life I already had. I was living on the beach in Hawaii, earning a good income, with a healthy family and incredible experiences under my belt, yet I couldn't feel the happiness I was seeking.

I turned off my phone, joined my son in the water, and for the first time in a long while, I was present.

That day marked the beginning of my journey to truly Living a Life of Abundance in family, faith, finances, and fitness.

This journey led me to start a podcast, build a business coaching practice, and write a book, with two more on the way. Today, I live an Amazing Life of Abundance and dedicate my time to helping other business owners achieve your dreams and goals. What ever that is for you.
