There is no better time than NOW

Hey everyone,

I’ve decided to start this blog to document my journey to financial freedom. There is no better time than now to start anything in your life, so I’ve named it Tribe of NOW. This is going to be our cozy corner where I share not just the highs and lows of my e-commerce journey, but also my path to financial freedom, mental calmness, and overall happiness. It’s really about the journey of my life, about transforming my mindset to truly believe that I can achieve anything I set my mind to.

Here’s a bit of background: I’ve dabbled in e-commerce for a while, launching four Shopify stores. To be upfront, none really hit the mark. But that’s cool because each attempt was a learning curve. Now, setting up a new store takes me just a couple of days—a huge leap from the two months for my first.

I’ve been burying myself in books, too. Since last August, I’ve devoured at least 30 books on business, finances, investing—pretty much everything relevant. I even dipped my toes into stocks, boosting my portfolio by 30% since mid-July. I’m no investment expert, but I’ve realized how crucial it is to invest at least 10% of your income before spending on anything else.

But Tribe of Now is more than a showcase of what I know. It’s about sharing the genuine, raw stuff. What’s working, what’s not, the tools I’m rocking with, tips, ideas—the whole shebang. I’m constantly learning from courses, podcasts, Youtube videos, other e-commerce enthusiasts, and tons of books. Why keep all that knowledge to myself?

I envision Tribe of Now as a space where we all grow together. I’ll be laying out everything I’ve learned and continue to learn in the most unfiltered, real way possible. Whether you’re diving into e-commerce or just curious, I hope you’ll find it super useful.

Why am I doing all this? Honestly, I want to make this journey feel a bit less solo. I want to build a place where we can all exchange our stories, challenges, and victories. If I can help even one person sidestep the pitfalls I’ve encountered or catch a win more swiftly, then it’s totally worth it.

So, that’s the heart and soul of Tribe of Now. I’m pumped to see where this journey takes us, and I really hope you’ll be part of this adventure. Together, let’s build something incredible.

Catch you all on the flip side.

Mike
