What is The Quest?

The main theme or concept that you will see throughout all of Macardam.com, is the slogan "Join us on our quest to success!" But just what is this quest? Well, we define our quest as our journey, our struggle, our path to becoming successful. As we stand today creating this website, we are not rich, we are not happy, we are not where we want to be. We thought it would be a great idea to document our time from now until then; "then" being when we acheieve our goals and become the people we want to be. This doesn't just mean we become millionaires; far from it. Sure we have many monetary goals, but we want to become better people. We want to learn personal development and how we can be the best people we can. But more than ALL of that, we want to help others. If by creating this website we help just one single person get their life on track and turn it around, it was a success. This is why we want you to join us, it's a win-win situation. We are not charging for anything on this website, all we want to do is get to where we want to be and take as many people there with us as we can. Another added benefit is the power in numbers. Without each other, us three would not have created this website or have came as far as we have today. Now imagine if we were to meet hundreds, or thousands of people who have the same vision as us! With the power of the internet, it makes this possible!

OK - So how do I join you?

Easy, decide right now that you want to change. That's it, you've joined us! Although I have to admit it is easier said than done... Here is some advice to help make sure you don't slip up:

1) Join our forums. Whether you are the 1st, 50th, or 50,000th member to register it will definetly help put you on the right track. Our goal is to create a large community of people who are willing to share experiences, knowledge and advice with everyone else. Also, it is never a bad thing to meet some nice people with similar struggles and convictions. Create an account now and introduce yourself, it's free!
2) Start a blog. If you have checked out our progress (below) you will see we all have blogs. This will help keep you dedicated and document your progress. Imagine 5 years from now being able to go back and read your entries first getting started! Not only would it be a great experience for you, but it is something that would be extremely motivational for others.
3) Learn to read. This is a tough one for a lot of people, us included. Until we started this journey, we never have been much into reading. I (Carl) actually dispised reading so much that I hardly ever even read required material for school let alone a book outside of it. It doesn't matter if you can't read very well or haven't read a book in 20+ years, it is never too late to start. There are so many things you can learn from books, more than any website of community can teach you.
4) Become goal oriented. Goals and dreams are something you never want to give up or let go. Get a piece of paper (or open a Word document) and write down things you want to change in your life, things you want to do in your life, things you want to accomplish.
