My March 2015 Monthly Goals Report

I have created a new and improved version of K Money Mastery which is called, Mastering Book Publishing!

Every month, I write a detailed monthly report about the progress that I'm making towards the goals and resolutions that I publicly stated on my blog earlier in the year.  This is my March 2015 Monthly Goals Report, which goes over each goal that I set and the progress that I've made on them so far.

Since I started sharing my Monthly Goals Reports last year, I received such an amazing response from people on my blog.   People have been sharing with me how much I've inspired them or how helpful it's been for them by me openly sharing my progress.  It's my hope that you can take away something from this report that will help inspire you to achieve your own goals.

My 2015 Goals Breakdown

I’m now going to go into each goal that I committed to for 2015 in detail and share exactly where I’m at with it.  Also, be sure to check out the original 2015 goals and resolution video blog and my previous Monthly Goal Reports to compare my progress.

Health & Fitness

1. I will easily gain 13 lbs (aiming for 7-8 lbs being muscle) and weigh 165 lbs by July 31, 2015.

Result: Gained 2 lbs, around 161 lbs.

Previous Month: 159 lbs

My weight has been slowly climbing, putting on more and more muscle every month.  It's still been a bit of a challenge being at a higher body fat %, but I know it's part of the process and I can always burn it off down the road.

I've also noticed I've been much more sore, fatigued and requiring a bit more sleep.  This is a sign that my body is growing, but also that my body has to use more energy to digest food and recover more.  Again, all part of the process, but I need to ensure that I'm consuming healthy foods that are also giving me energy!

2. I will easily lose 5 lbs of fat and be 160 lbs, athletic and ripped by December 31, 2015.

Result: No progress yet

I'll be starting this goal later in the year, after I finish my “bulk” (see goal above).

Here's two 2 video blogs that share my exact weight loss diet plan and my weight loss workout plan in detail, if you're curious to know my plan for fat loss.

3. I will easily complete a 7-10 day cleanse using The Total Wellness Cleanse by December 31, 2015.

Result: No progress yet

Every year I do a 7-10 day cleanse to give my body a break.  I enjoy The Total Wellness Cleanse, as I've done it a few times, but any raw food/juicing cleanse really nourishes my body and does wonders for it.  I will be doing this later in the year.

4. I will easily do yoga 4 times per month by December 31, 2015.

Result: 4 times

In February, I did yoga 4 times.  I went to a hot yoga class on two occasions, but also have been doing some yoga at home which has been a bit more convenient.  I love the benefits I get from this and would like to continue on with this goal.

Financial

5. I will easily make at least $1,000,000 ($84,000 per month) by December 31, 2015.

Result: $60,008.67

Last Month: $76,506.47

My earnings decreased in March, only making $60,000.  However, it's still a huge amount of money and I'm extremely grateful for it.  I understand that some months I'll make more, other months I'll make less.  It largely depends on projects I'm working on, launches I have, as well as WHEN I get paid out on them.

For example, in March I launched my Kindle Virtual Assistant Training program to all Mastering Book Publishing members.  It did well, but I haven't been paid out yet all the earnings from that yet (some of it will be paid out in April).  I've also been making money in other businesses I own, but haven't been paid out for those yet either.  So I know some months will be higher, others lower – but overall, my average monthly earnings has been over $70,000 per month.

I know that if I successfully launch the various projects that I have listed below that I'll be able to achieve this goal – I just need to focus on taking massive action and helping as many people as possible.  The more people that I add value to and serve, the more comes back to me!

This income is comprised of a number of businesses and income streams that I have, such as:

6. I will easily invest at least $10,000 per month by December 31, 2015.

Result: Invested over $10,000

Last Month: Invested over $70,000

After reading Tony Robbins' book, Money: Master The Game, I've been super motivated to invest more of my money.  I'm not a fan of having money sit around and do nothing, so I believe learning how to properly manage and invest your money is an important skill.  In March I invested over $10,000 in my trading account.  My plan is to continue making monthly investments and to grow my net worth massively.

I first started investing since I was 18 years old – just contributing $100/month to a mutual fund, as I learned about the power of compounding from a book called The Wealthy Barber.  Today, I'm more focused on investing in stocks and index funds, as well as trying to diversify my portfolio as much as possible.

I plan on doing a video blog sharing my investing strategy and what I do with my money.

Business

7. I will easily launch my own physical product on Amazon using the Amazing Selling Machine by February 28, 2015.

Result: $2500 in March, haven't launched to blog yet

During my first month selling my product in February, I made $1563 and sold 88 units.

In March, my earnings jumped up to $2541 and sold 143 units!  Very happy with the progress I've been making and how fast I've been making money, with only my second month of selling.

amazon 2nd month results

The cool part is – I haven't even used my blog, YouTube channel or e-mail list to promote it yet!  I've done everything just by following what I learned in the Amazing Selling Machine.

In April, I will be releasing videos sharing how I've been making money selling on Amazon.  I plan on revealing my product and showing you the process that I've been going through.

Also, the Amazing Selling Machine is going to be launched in April, possibly for the last time.  I plan on putting together an awesome bonus for those that decide to join through me, that will include some coaching and an opportunity for me to help you grow your Amazon business.

I've been working with a group of people, coaching them over the last 6 months, and many of them are getting awesome results!  Even my girlfriend is doing awesome, she made $3900 last month on her 2nd month selling her product!

Stay tuned for more details and training for selling on Amazon.

8. I will easily launch my own Kindle optimization software with my brother by February 28, 2015.

Result: In beta testing

The software is currently in beta testing and is being used by a small group of Kindle publishers.  The plan is to officially launch it sometime in May of 2015.

9. I will easily launch my own Kindle review software by March 31, 2015.

Result: Delayed

This goal is delayed and will be re-evaluated later in the year.  For now, I am putting some other goals and projects ahead of it in priority.

10. I will easily launch my Kindle Virtual Assistant training program by March 31, 2015.

Result: Goal Achieved!

I successfully launched the Kindle Virtual Assistant Training Program in March 2015!

It was a great success and people have been loving it so far.  It is only available to members of Mastering Book Publishing.

One of the best things about it was that I decided to donate 20% of all sales to this Project Empowerment charity campaign.

The Kindle VA Training Program teaches how to outsource, automate and systematize 95% of the Kindle publishing process.  It also provides step-by-step training videos and documents that you can send to your Virtual Assistants, to train them on almost every task of Kindle publishing.  This makes it VERY easy, as you can now grow your Kindle business without having to do any of the work!

11. I will easily launch and do my first ever Kindle live mastermind event in Vancouver with my brother by April 30, 2015.

Result: Goal Achieved!

We successfully hosted the first ever Kindle Mastermind event in March, having Mastering Book Publishing members fly in from all over the world to take their Kindle publishing business to the next level!

We had people fly in all the way from Australia, Japan, San Francisco, Florida, Ontario, etc…  These people were already getting awesome results from Kindle publishing with Mastering Book Publishing, making thousands per month, but wanting to take it to an even higher level!

The event was a big success and it was fantastic getting a chance to meet some amazing individuals.  It was hosted in my penthouse on the 48th floor – take a look at the picture below:

12. I will easily create and launch my own self-development program with Clickbank by December 31, 2015.

Result: No progress made yet

I plan on starting this goal during summer of 2015.

13. I will easily launch 30 CreateSpace books of my top selling Kindle books by December 31, 2015.

Result: 18 published

My team has been slowly publishing more and more of our Kindle books to CreateSpace, turning them into paperback books.  So far we've published 18, with a lot more in progress.  CreateSpace has been becoming an awesome income stream for me and another way to make a lot more money from my Kindle books.

14. I will easily launch 20 audiobooks of my top selling Kindle books by December 31, 2015.

Result: 18 published

We're now up to 18 audiobooks published on ACX.  This has been easy money for me and another way of making more money from my Kindle books.

15. I will easily hire a new employee/assistant to help me grow my business by March 31, 2015.

Result: Hired & working with

Things have been running smoothly in March, with a new person working with me to start helping me grow my business with Facebook marketing.  I also have someone I've been utilizing for some technical parts of my business as well.  I'm hoping this turns into a long-term relationship and continues to help my business grow!

Lifestyle, Relationships & Personal Development

16. I will easily travel to Las Vegas for the Amazing Selling Machine live event by February 28, 2015.

Result: Goal Achieved!

I attended the Amazing Selling Machine Live Event in February in Las Vegas and it was amazing!  I got to see Robert Kiyosaki and Sir Richard Branson speak at it.  Also, I learned a TON of awesome tips and strategies to help grow my Amazon products business.

17. I will easily travel to San Diego for the Traffic & Conversion Summit by February 28, 2015.

traffic and conversion summitResult: Goal Achieved!

I had a blast in San Diego for the Traffic & Conversion Summit in February.  I went with my brother and I also got to hangout with many friends that I have in the internet marketing industry.  I learned a ton!  The highlight speaker was Daymond John, from Shark Tank.

18. I will easily attend Leadership Academy by December 31, 2015.

Result: Scheduled for August

I'll be attending this event in August, but I haven't booked my ticket yet.

19. I will easily travel for 2 months to Europe with my girlfriend and celebrate our 1-year anniversary by August 31, 2015.

Result: Scheduled for May/June

I'm going to be visiting Europe at the end of May, start of June.  It will likely be a 2-week trip, as opposed to 2-months as my girlfriend is limited with the time she can take off right now.  Will likely do a more long-term trip later in the year.

20. I will easily travel for a 1 week vacation somewhere tropical by December 31, 2015.

Result: Nothing planned yet

Nothing planned here yet, but will likely be sometime in winter later in the year.

21. I will easily complete the Ultimate Relationship Program with my girlfriend by December 31, 2015.

Result: Completed first 2 CD's

My girlfriend and I have gone through the first two CD's of this program and so far it's excellent!  We both enjoy learning and growing, so this program is great for us as it helps us build a strong foundation for our relationship.  We plan on going through the program throughout the year at a steady pace, giving us a chance to implement what we've learned.

22. I will easily complete the 100 Day Challenge by April 30, 2015.

Result: Over 90 days complete!

Almost finished the 100 Day Challenge!  This program has been fantastic, really helping me to be more motivated and accountable towards my goals for 2015.

Click here for my review of the 100 Day Challenge.

23. I will easily read or listen to at least 12 books by December 31, 2015.

Result: Read 3 books

I've read 3 books so far during 2015.  I'm currently reading Get The Life You Want: The Secrets To Quick And Lasting Life Change With Neuro Linguistic Programming.

Here's a list of books that I've read so far this year:

24. I will easily be certified in NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) by March 31, 2015.

Result: Goal Achieved!

I achieved this goal in March, completing my 9-day NLP certification program with Harry Nichols.  Harry apprenticed under Richard Brandler, the co-founder of NLP, for over 5 years.  It's been a fun journey and I look forward to continuing to implement the techniques into my life.

NLP stands for Neuro Linguistic Programming, which is the science of how language affects the nervous system.  The techniques taught allow you to be able to re-program your own thoughts, feelings and behaviours.  It's powerful stuff!

Contribution:

25. I will easily build 2 schools with Change Heroes by December 31, 2015.

Result: Over $7,828 raised so far!

I'm excited that so far over $7,828 has been raised for my Change Heroes campaign to build a school in Ecuador!  I want to thank those that have supported this cause so much, as it's going to make a huge difference.

I also donated $3000 to another campaign in March, called Project Empowerment.

There's so many young children around the world that have no access to education or school.  As a result, they are lacking basic skills such as the ability to read, write and be in an environment where they can learn/grow.  They have no opportunities in life and it not only affects them on an individual left, but hurts their entire city and country.  This is an area I'm passionate to make a huge difference in!

If you haven't seen the campaign yet, click here.  I appreciate all support and contributions greatly!

26. I will easily be a Big Brother and mentor children by December 31, 2015.

Result: Have done interview with Big Brothers

I've completed my application, criminal record check, and now interview in February with the Big Brothers program!  Now it's just scheduling in my commitment to the program, which will likely be later in the year.

Mentoring children and being a role model to others is something important to me that I always strive towards.  I watched a documentary called The Bully Project last year and it really motivated me to want to make a difference by working with young kids – to be a friend, a mentor or Big Brother.

Magic Moments & Lessons Learned In March 2015

March was another awesome month!  Here's some of the biggest magic moments and lessons learned.

  • Focus On What You're Passionate About.  In the past, my focus and priority in business was to make money.  I was desperate and my #1 priority was to make enough money to be able to be financially free and pursue my passion.  This is often what I recommend to people getting started, is to focus on making money first, THEN once you're free you can do whatever you want with your life.  However, the position I'm in my life now, I don't need to focus on the money as much.  When I set goals or work on a project, I do it first and foremost because I WANT to do it, I enjoy it, and I believe it's what will make the biggest impact.  In February, I had an opportunity to make nearly $100,000 on a project that I was invited to be apart of.  However, I turned it down.  While the money would've been great, it would also have created some un-needed stress in my life and affect some of the other goals that I am pursuing.  I decided that being happy, doing what I love and what I'm passionate about is much more important.  It's a good feeling to be able to say “no” and turn down opportunities, because I'm in a position of abundance right now in my life.
  • Keep Your Eyes On The Horizon, Towards Your Goals And Future.  In March, I got sidetracked on a few occasions.  As I've become more successful, I've had more and more people that have attempted to rip off and copy my Mastering Book Publishing course.  I had 3 instances with people that flat-out stole my materials and work (even with my logos and copyright on it) and then attempt to sell and profit from it.  I've had to file 3 DMCA Takedown Notices and got these “copycats” shut down.  While it was frustrating and can be somewhat hurtful, I've realized it's best to just continue moving forward and focus on your goals and future.  You can't get sidetracked by others out there that have no morales or ethics.  I will do the best to protect my work and products, but not get distracted by the negativity out there.
  • Effectively Schedule Goals Throughout The Year.  I've gotten much better at effectively planning and scheduling my goals throughout the year.  I am working on certain things at a time, then once I complete them, I start the next goals on my list.  This has been great, as I'm not trying to do everything all at once and am not as stressed out.
  • Happiness Comes From The Inside, Not The Outside.  This has been a good reminder all throughout the year.  I constantly remind myself that happiness is something that I can create right now, in this moment.  Nothing external will give you happiness or joy – only temporary pleasure.  Happiness has been a practice for me which has been growing every month.

These are some of the biggest lessons that I stand out for me during March.  Overall, I enjoyed putting this Monthly Goals Report together and I look forward to doing one again for April.  I’ve found that this public commitment has been pushing me to stay motivated and accountable as well, which is helping me to get more done also.  Thanks for reading!
