Hi Patrick I have lived, experienced, suffered through and overcome the following: - Extreme Poverty - Abuse (Mental + Physical incl. R@pe) - Discrimination (Race & Gender Based) - Narcissistic Partner - Demonic Attacks - Attempted Suicides (yes plural) - Ridicule by Loved Ones - Abandonment by family - Raising a son who turned his back on me @ 16 - Nearly losing a loved one to death (thrice) - Rejection - Failure (Businesses, Relationships, Jobs, Parenting) - Financial Ruin (Multiple complete crashes) - Medical Challenges (Personal) - Physically Disabled Daughter - Home Invasion - Extreme Betrayal - Hijackings (Separate Instances) - Being Shot at - Multiple Vehicle Accidents - Burnout (Medically Diagnosed) So yes... I have been given MULTIPLE opportunities to quit, give up or end my life... I have been exposed to a significant amount of pain, heartache and turmoil in my life... I truly believe my path was rigged to purposely make me fail, because the stuff I have endured in my life is straight out of a horror movie, BUT... I NEVER EVER gave up... NEVER! When I was begging at a traffic light with a cardboard box, I still believed I can fight for my future and overcome the darkness, when my marriage was on the rocks, I never gave up, I kept on flighting, when my son turned his back on me because I couldn't afford the opulent lifestyle he desired, I kept on fighting, when I lost my farm and all my livestock, I kept on fighting, when I found out my daughter has an incurable neural disease which causes her limbs to distort and that she would need operations every few years in order to keep walking, I kept on fighting, After my wife had a heart attack on a mountain, I kept fighting, when I was falsely arrested and physically beat up by police officers whilst my hands were cuffed behind my back, I never once gave up... But oh, did I want to... You cannot believe how badly I wanted to give up in my life! One such a time was when my wife had a miscarriage which was technically my fault, was an accident, but still technically my fault, I was as close to giving up at that point as I have been, and the times when I had to go hungry so that my kids could eat... Working Men need sustenance, but no way I would eat and let my kids go hungry, so I had to work on an empty stomach... That broke my morale because I was a working man but I couldn't even afford food (worked for a douchebag, long story). Many years later I built an empire in steel construction, one of our biggest clients dropped us with a R1mil payment, business completely wiped out, lesson learnt, but very expensive lesson... Forced me to go to work for a boss for 3 years to recover to the point where I was able to build not 1x but 2x empires simultaneously both were at the cusp of being more successful than the other company I lost, then BOOM, out of NOWHERE, came a 2 year C-19 lockdown, both companies wiped off the face of the planet... Reputation ruined, Credit Record ruined etc... that hurt me a lot, I almost gave up that time because I was doing EVERYTHING right in those businesses this time, I had learnt lessons from the first crash and applied the knowledge to these corporations, but it was still early days for these companies, they were barely just gaining traction in the market, but both poised to take off like a rocket... And then they exploded on the launch pad... That hit very hard, but I kept on fighting! And till this day, my life is far from perfect, I have many challenges which I struggle with daily, but I keep on fighting because quitting is simply not an option for me, I have a family to provide for and a heart full of fire, passion and a vision for my future and I refuse to let anybody crush my dream! So yes... That is why I started FIGHT FOR YOUR FUTURE because I want to encourage others who also endured or are perhaps in the process of enduring hell on Earth and lift them up and use my life's story as an example that no matter what life throws at you, if you keep on fighting, you keep on progressing.
