My name is Chris Poorten and I believe we have all been put on this earth for a purpose, and we all have many great strengths and talents to share with the world.  Our lives are meant to be led with abundance, TRUE HEALTH, and service to others.  I am very passionate about helping others reach there own desired lifestyle.

Throughout my life I have had an interest in psychology, human behavior, what makes people do different things and why some people become more successful than others. I first picked up the book “Rich Dad Poor Dad” by Robert Kiyosaki around 2001/2002 and it really changed how I viewed jobs, making money, and how one approaches life. One of the main concepts in the book is the importance and benefits of entrepreneurship to create assets that will generate long term income.

Over the course of my life I have held many different types of jobs ranging from customer service, data entry, along with bank teller and others.  Their were aspects of each which I enjoyed, and others not so much (especially when I would find out that my paychecks would bounce after putting so much time and effort in).  Their were many times where I would feel as though there must be more to life than going to the same place day after day, only getting paid as much as the company thinks I am worth, while having my capped based on the amount of hours I work.  The thought of having someone else determine how much my time is worth, what and where I have to be during the day along with what I can do makes me cringe inside.    As a result, I came to the conclusion that true happiness and fulfillment for me would not be found through a traditional job path.  In his book “The Four Hour Work Week,” Tim Ferris talks about switching from the “career planning” mindset to a lifestyle planning mindset.  I will cover this more in the “Wealth and Lifestyle” portion of this site.  As Author, speaker, and philosopher Alan Cohen says “Don’t work for a living, create for a life.”

Because of my lack of overall fulfillment in the jobs which I held I decided to use some of the lessons from Rich Dad Poor Dad and look into opportunities to make money outside of a regular job.  In doing so, I learned that there is an abundance of opportunities available to earn money and even create true FINANCIAL FREEDOM for yourself. After researching many different options I fell across with an opportunity that I fell in love with.  I am able to utilize my passion for helping people with the ability to improve peoples health and financial well being. I truly enjoy being able to make a positive impact in others lives, while helping others do the same.

    Ever since I was a young child, I have always had a huge fascination with Rock Stars, and their ability to captivate and inspire an audience .  Many musicians, performers, and ROCK STARS in particular exhibit a certain confidence, swagger, and the ability to remain ‘In the moment’ during a performance on stage.  These traits are exhibited greatly while they perform both on and off the stage.  It is my belief that we can utilize the positive traits that these individuals exhibit in our own lives to help us achieve our own desired dreams and goals.  It is my firm belief that no matter our job title, social status, gender or race, we all have the ability to be Rock Stars in our own lives.
