My name is Erik. Since the young age of eight, when I knocked on peoples doors in Bergenfield New Jersey to ask them if I could shovel the snow off their driveway for money, to age thirty when Ieft corporate to sell selfie sticks, to my current age of forty-one and in the process of growing my 3d crystal business, I have always had an entrepreneurial spirit to create. I believe we all have that deep burning desire to create. It has been my belief coupled with taking action, that has allowed me to experience the freedom that comes with being an entrepreneur. Every step of the way my family and friends told me I was crazy for leaving a job to sell selfie sticks, but then my mom said to me one day look how far you have come. Personally, I do not let that fear or doubt take over of the unknown or the what if’s, I believe in myself without a doubt and I know wholeheartedly that I will always find a way because the difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack or knowledge, but rather is a lack of will. For years I let what others thought about me effect my own perception of myself and in turn that directly correlated with the action I did or did not take toward my goals. However, because I walk in truth and freedom of knowing who I am and whose I am, I am able to help show others the Way, and how someone can go from nothing to having everything, because everything we will ever need is already inside of us.
