A Special Man's Triumph In The Gold Rush!
Thomas F. Seymour is a 48 year old man, from West Hartford CT. He was diagnosed with polio as a child. Thomas has never really had the use of his legs. He has also been burdened his entire life with all the other challenges that polio can bring with it.
The day I met Thomas at his home for the first time, he was in the middle of his yard spreading a pile of mulch, 8 feet wide and 5 feet tall. He did this while seated on the ground with a shovel. He looked up at me, and smiled, as he said "Good Day." I then took notice of a garden of wild flowers and vegetables, impressive enough to make any farmer jealous.
I just had to think of the obstacles that he has had to overcome every day of his life. Daily tasks, most of us take for granted, can be time consuming and tough for someone with Thomas' disability. I have never seen Thomas complain, or allow himself to be set back by challenges.
The perspective from a man like Thomas F. Seymour has on success, is from a much different point of view. It is a perspective all of us can learn from.
Thomas told me, when we first met, that all he wanted was "money, coming to him, in the mail from everywhere","I would rather take only a dollar from thousands of people than to take a thousand dollars from one." Said Thomas. With this idea in mind he started his first online business "The Gold Link." http://www.tgoldlink.com.
He was easily able to corner the price on high quality solid 14kt Italian gold, with an Internet low of $10 per gram. His pricing allowed Thomas a very competitive position in his online venture. He now had the best place to get gold on the Internet, but ... it was hidden in the woods.
The first real obstacle Thomas ran into was getting traffic to his online store. For 3 years Thomas persisted with the Gold Link with the credit card processing fees and webhosting fees eating into his low monthly profits. To make things worse he invested a great deal of money with many ineffective Internet marketer's.
His turn around came, when he saw an ad for "Guaranteed Front Page Placement in all the Major Search Engines for under $100." (This can be found at http://www.rhinosweb.com/frontpage.html)
Thomas bought the book, and discovered,
he could master the search engines and gain some real targeted traffic to his Gold Link Website. This worked so well for him the author, and asked me for training in other marketing tactics. This led to our meeting.
I met Thomas in his third year of owning the Gold Link, and he told me of his obstacles. He had given away thousands of dollars for a front page search engine placement that never came. As well as other high traffic promises gone bad. His major problem was a lack of traffic, which equaled lack of sales, and that equaled a loss.
However, Thomas never entertained quitting. Not even close. He has been growing and adding other businesses to his multiple income streams on a regular basis. His next project will be an Internet Mall.
"What will you do with your success now Thomas?" I asked.
"Success is the progressive realization of a worthwhile goal or dream." Said Thomas. "My goal and dream is to walk again. I'd gladly like an opportunity be a case study patient for any Doctor looking to try a leg transplant or robotics/bionics. Since no one has taken me up on that yet, I'll just, make enough money with my Gold Link site that I'll buy them in a few years."
In a world where Thomas F. Seymour was challenged by physical limitations, he found a way to triumph. He took his eyes off of his obstacles, and focused on opportunities, until he recognized his. The Internet took away any physical limitations. He knew he could compete with multimillion dollar startup dotcom's and win. The Internet has truly leveled the playing field for all of us.
