★☆★ Who Is David Sharpe? ★☆★
Before all the success David should have been dead, banished from society and long forgotten about. Nothing about his previous life was glamorous. He was a homeless, high-school dropout who was addicted to drugs and destined for early death. He wasn’t Legendary. He was considered a loser.
He got clean from heroin in 2008, and for 18 months he worked construction with his Dad and slept on his couch. Then suddenly his life took a very weird twist and instead of going on living a meaningless and mediocre life he discovered something that changed everything for him (and will change everything for you, too).
On this channel, he describes the blueprint he used to start a digital marketing business he started from home that went on to do over $200-million in sales…
….and how we went from a homeless, high-school dropout to making every teacher, judge, police officer, and ex-girlfriend who ever wrote him off… Eat Their F*cking Heart Out.
Get your pen out and take notes. Most people who follow Dave don’t look back until they’ve fired their shitty boss and reclaimed their God-given freedom to wake up whenever the hell they want.
Dave has been featured in multiple publications including Entrepreneur and Forbes Magazine and quoted as “an icon in the internet marketing industry.”
He lives in St. Petersburg, FL with his wife and kids.

Were you looking to get out of this Program oh Oh those things where you know Kind of a similar story with anybody Else you know you're in a situation and You're looking for Um Ways to supplement your income And um you know my husband was working a Lot of overtime our house was in Foreclosure I have a special needs son Who needed a service dog Um all the things and so Um you know I was just sitting on my Phone one day and saw another girl that Was talking about legendary or you know And um So I watched for a while and decided to Check it out and that's what led me here And it's changed everything so Wow wow so almost by Um you know almost by kind of Happenstance but a little bit of but but Also there was some intention out to the You know the universe God whatever you Believe in may have been answering some Some some some prayer some intentions Even though you were just living your Life and doing what you needed to do so Here you are right this thing come up on Tick Tock I mean you weren't really even Looking right no no no 100 that I Believe this is where I'm supposed to be Yeah yeah yeah that's that's it's I
Think there's there's a unique gift in Being able to notice a gift even when You don't ask for it right or when You're not like praying hard every day For it but to be like Wow you know this is a moment you know This is this is let me just take this All in and and really make sure that if I if I ignore this that this wasn't Meant for me you know that this wasn't The the you know a solution and I see That with a lot of human beings every Day we have things in front of us and Um it's sometimes it's difficult to Recognize that wow this is an Opportunity right so how did you avoid Skepticism how did you avoid uh how did You not fall into you know negativity I Mean which which the internet is is is There's no shortage of that how did you Deal with your own skepticism of will This work for me Etc and I would assume You maybe you still are and that's okay Sure And I didn't you know their skepticism And um But The more that I looked into it the more That I sat back and I just watched Um I knew that It was something that I at least wanted To try I mean because I felt like I had Nothing to lose you know and so the only
Thing that I deal with now is more of Like that imposter syndrome where it's Like oh wow I'm doing this oh wait I'm Doing this I'm doing this sort of thing You know so I like that the skepticism Lasted a short time and then I just dove Into it and when I just when I saw That it was working and Um the amount of knowledge that I gained From it and How I've used that in other areas of my Life Um It's just been amazing so That's great is this your first try at Entrepreneurship Um so I am a massage therapist and I own My own business for a long time so it's My first time at anything like this for Sure okay okay with that business were You the only employee or did you have Lots of employees So you were self-employed sort of like Robert Kiyosaki talks about in the cash Flow quadrant to where you own a Business but you're still kind of Trading time for money Yes definitely yeah that makes that Makes a lot of sense which is sort of Disappointing when you go out on your Own and you're like I'm going to start a Business but then you're like dang it Yeah dang it now now I yeah if I want to Really grow this and scale this I need
Either as he says very simply systems or People right to help me to scale and so Now you've got uh basically systems People helping you Um so you're kind of using people in the In a way of gaining knowledge and Information and and and you're but You're duplicating yourself in Multiplying yourself on videos and stuff Like that with these systems on social Media are you surprised at how quickly Somebody can get you know a business up And running in 2023 with the right Knowledge and Skills if they just take Consistent action I mean a lot of people Think that this business is expensive or Hard and as a business owner you know That hard is driving around to people's Or them coming to you and you staying in The the studio late at night and you're You know your your body's sore at the End of the day because you've been Rubbing and trying to I mean that's hard I also know hard construction work I'm Not trying to say this work isn't Mentally hard and it can be physically Draining but the comparison of the Leverage that you get now sitting in Your home working versus the massage Business what's that contrast like how Do you see hard work and how do you Define an expensive business now or how Has that been kind of re you know how Has that been that that that thought of
You know really that physical location But how has that been shattered you know The way that now you can use technology In some skills with a few low to no cost Tools to have a business is that kind of Like I mean is that is that has that been Earth shattering for you or I mean What's that been like it's Success that was capable Um just by taking this this course in The amount of like I said the amount of Knowledge that I gain in such a short Amount of time surpasses any Class College course any you know Anything that I've ever done previously To this Um And so And to be able to be in my own home Right make it what I want it to be and To be able to make my own schedule and Yes it is work you know and you you Definitely have to put in the time a Hundred percent but I'm in control of That whereas I I never had that to this Extent before Yeah and what's the value just for some People who are sitting here listening Kind of on that that maybe that fence at The beginning of hey is this really Worth it what's the value of being able To work from home and build a business Not just be able to work from home from
Your company or whoever you work for but Now being able to work from home on your Own business without having to leave and What is the value of that do we Undervalue that and focus too much on The commissions and the money in the Beginning and let that get us frustrated Instead of focusing more on the value of Wow I get to be home let me be more Patient let me be persistent with this Because after all I get to be at home Doing this do we undervalue that Um I think so sometimes I think that Um You know being a home it is such a gift To be able to do this Um here and to be able to Yes a lot of people I don't know so for Me it's more like Um Sorry life makes me nervous no it's Totally fine want me to restate the Question yeah go ahead I I just you said That you that struck me when you said Kind of I get to work from home and I Feel like so many times new people are So focused on a commission or instead of Thinking about the long term and the Fact that you get to learn this business And do this business at home right and That's such a big deal and we're so Focused on well I haven't gotten a Commission yet or some of these kind of You know these things that they will
Come but but we undervalue I know I Often do I get complacent undervalue the Beauty of just being able to work from Home and how much is that worth how much Does that improve the quality of my life Even if I don't get super uber Rich The ability for me to be able to work at Home and make a living I just feel like a lot of us tend to Undervalue that you know what I mean and I just wonder you know having you said You had a special needs son and I don't Know if you have more children but just I would imagine there's a lot of parents Listening to this a lot of times again We can get focused on the commission we Can get focused on the you know and and Lose touch of what you just said which Is the value of being able to do this From home It's like wow That just struck me you know that we Undervalue that and so Um you know I don't know if there was Really a question but I just wonder if You could say more about that you know The value of of this and and how Flexible it is for those of us with kids For those of us with special needs kids Or those of us who want to travel Sure Yeah that that I can tell you all about You know I have four kids and my oldest Oh my God four wow I thought you just
Had the one okay hello no I have four Kids my oldest has autism Um and then I have a four or three year Old uh five-year-old four-year-old and My two-year-old is two today uh So yeah happy birthday to to the Two-year-old yeah I'm home you know you know that's great But In my situation I'm I'm not really able To work outside of the home and that was Always an issue because You know what are we going to do how how Can I provide not just for the bills but How can I provide the the needs and the Services that my son needs you know and Um And and also You know be here for for my other three Small children so There is you you can't put a price on That you know it's It is everything to me and the fact that I can now do that it it brings so much Relief to Just it it brings so much relief to me Yeah Yeah I know what you mean it's like wow That's an interesting use of words Relief versus like bringing so much Excitement to me it brings so much you Know you're like relief just and and the Way that resonates right because I mean How many of us uh whether we are in the
Same situation which I'm not and and Many of us are not with four kids one Being a special needs kid in in needing To to be there uh to you know that's That's really Um that's really a unique situation and Um and yeah the the ability to perhaps a Little bit of relief I'd like to I read A little bit of your I read a little bit Of your um your your questionnaire and You you said that you set everything up In December and January you started Creating content and working the Business working in the business right Instead of just learning Um I like how you like I like how you Said that like I think there's a Distinct difference and there is a Defining moment in which somebody goes From learning mode and kind of observing Mode and kind of getting ready to get Ready to actually Crossing that line Having taken some sort of action to Where there now is no turning back right You've made that first step you've Stepped over that line what did that Look like for you in January was that Pressing post and putting something out There publicly it was it was yeah so Like you said in December I set Everything up And then January 1st that was it and so I've been doing this for nine weeks and Like I already my mind is blown
Um so yeah it hasn't really been that Long Not at all not at all Um And so what was that did you use that Like beginning of the year as like a Launch pad as like a New Year's Resolution thing I mean we're now at February 28th what what I'm just trying To think of some of these folks Um you know starting over you know Sometimes we get started sometimes we Start over yeah can you say more about What that was like I mean whether it was January 1st or whether it would have to Be today what was how did you mentally Prepare for that well I mean I just like I said I just kind of fell into it so it Was Thanksgiving I had posted my son's Um crowdfunding for his dog we had been Crowdfunding for a year well just to be Clear mentally prepared to then take Action on January 1st yeah no No December was the month where I just Learned everything January 1st was just A day it was just a day that we got back From vacation I was home and it just Happened to be January 1st but but I Knew that that was my okay go So now was that the first day that you Posted a video publicly I mean was that The kind of the the that was the move Yeah yeah What was it like to hit post that first
Time were you familiar with the with the Camera I mean is this all new like a Hundred percent to you I mean this is Pretty new I mean I'm not comfortable on Camera obviously you know like this is This is more comfortable to me This whole thing is such a growing Experience and it's forcing me to do Things that I would have never done so Yeah I'll take it I'll take it yeah you look Great like as Kayla said yesterday on The show don't let him see you sweat Like never let your audience know that You don't know what you're doing so I Mean not only you know you you look Great you're doing you look perfect Thanks So yeah it was A few tick tocks before of my kids but No I didn't know what I was doing and That was the great thing about this is It just walked me through all of it and Um It's been fun it's been fun growing and Learning how to do it and I mean if I can do it Anybody can do this it's just the Determination and saying okay this is What I'm choosing to do and just going For it I also noticed that you said that in Kind of December you know Even with four kids you lived with
