**Leader - Tom Berg - Connector, Visionary.** **I have a BS in Geography from the University of South Alabama. I have 39 years of working experience in the information technology field. I have seen "computers" from almost the beginning and watched in amazement at the evolution. I found LifeBushido on the internet and am very excited about the thought of creating a Triangle. The business concept put forth is unique and yet foundationally strong. It is the leading edge, not the bleeding edge , in providing the total work and life experience. I am 62 years old, and work from home. I am seeking motivated, hard-working , dedicated individuals to join my Triangle and channel their talents and expertise. **

I realize that it is a tall order. I would prefer to help people who are physically unable to help themselves. Having lost my mother-in-law 2 years ago to a debilitating lung disease which prohibited her from enjoying the pursuits that she had for so long dreamed of, I have a commitment to work to find a method of granting "on-line" access for the elderly and/or disabled to those functions that are necessary for their everyday living. From providing access to the normal routines of grocery shopping to medical assistance and bill paying, etc. I have a big picture of providing methods for them to accomplish all they need from their home through the interfaces with the providers of the goods and services.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">My passion is one which may appear a bit odd from the surface. My passion is tropical cyclones, or as most in the U.S. think of them , hurricanes. My interest began in 1963 as a 14 year-old young boy on a family trip to Houston to see the Astrodome. It was new at the time, and heralded as a "wonder" of the world. On out trip to Houston we drove through a tropical storm and after seeing the weather associated with it, became enthralled by the process. Upon return home I immediately began finding any and all references in books to the storms. I even built a special hurricane tracking chart the size of a complete wall in my bedroom to track them. It was really rather special, in that it was a perfect scale of the Atlantic , Caribbean , and Gulf of Mexico , and I even used a small motor with a makeshift hurricane in cardboard that would spin whenever a storm was being tracked. I have kept this passion for the last 49 years !!

In recent years, I have coached clients in their businesses as well as in the area of their personal well-being and started/developed a wellness retail store. Recently divorced, I am learning a new way of being to create not only the stream of income I desire, but the lifestyle I enjoy most. I have two teenagers at home who still like me and therefore enjoy my company. The flexibility of my work allows me to enjoy their company too and I'd really like to continue that trend by increasing my work from home time. The idea of meeting like minds, brainstorming to create and complete a project all from the beginnings of this page is the kind of challenge and work I enjoy.//**

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">**My Perfect Job** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">I always want to make this plural: My Perfect Job(s). I find that diversity makes me happiest – whether that means that I have a few different kinds of jobs or one that keeps me engaged with so many different kinds of tasks. My perfect job is one that gives me the flexibility I desire so that I can continue to be with my children as much as possible, enjoy snippets of time with friends (gotta get those laughs in) and pursue my own health goals. My perfect job would involve working one-on-one with clients, alone & independently as well as in a small team. My environment would be flexible, home office, coffee shop, beach, or on the road – I really enjoy being able to take my work with me. Lastly, my perfect job would be one that followed a unique vision, either my own, that of a larger company or both. This vision would contribute to growth rather than inhibiting such, always evolving into something better and better.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">**My Passion** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">Years ago, I could have given you a running list of the things I was most passionate about. Today, that is questionable. It isn’t “things” so much anymore as it is “ideas, concepts, bigger pictures.” I am passionate about finding the pleasure in all things, people, and circumstances. This encompasses my kids, family, friends, clients, co-workers, projects, tasks, jobs, location, and more. I love to create beautiful, functional things & ideas – in projects for clients, words, the support they feel, in cooking, home, relationships, etc. I am passionate about being present, accomplishing, and truths.

Unfortunately, my dad passed away on December 24, 2011, and I had to put my mom into a nursing home in March. Now, for the first time in 10 years, I need a purpose. I prefer to work from home as my youngest child is special needs, so this way I can be here for her. We have just moved to a new town and there isn't much work here locally, so that is another reason I need to work from home. I am very excited about Lifebushido as I believe this is the perfect opportunity for me.**//

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">**Finances - money/things, house, non-business.** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">1. I will increase my income to make sure all necessities can be paid for by 4/30/12. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">2. I will prioritize my time to accommodate my financial goals. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">3. I will improve my credit score by 10 points by 12/31/12.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">**Business - business, career, work.** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">1. I will become a Lifebushido. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">2.

I will try not to stress over everything. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">3. I will remember to read my goals every day.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">**My Perfect Job** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">My perfect job would be to bring my morning tea to the computer to log in and check my schedule to see what projects I have going on for that day. The projects would be a mix of web and graphic design work for a variety of clients, and there would be research to do also. I would converse with my Universal Strategic Solutions team about our next project, all the while watching my portfolio grow, while my skills get better and better. At some point in time, I would learn some programming and create a few programs or apps. It may sound simple, but I really want to see the degree I earned put to good use (not to mention pay for itself). I'm not looking to be wealthy, but to be able to make sure my family is taken care of, and even have some left for a vacation.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">**My Passion** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">My passion is technology. That may seem broad, but my passion encompasses all technology. I marvel at the latest innovations in computer programs (in fact I'd like to learn programming) and cell phones, and then at things that improve the quality of life for people such as transplants and advances in medicine such as DNA that can help catch a criminal as well as determine the parents of a child. I like to read Popular Science magazine for all the interesting things that they cover in regards to technology. I learned to build my own computers so that I can have exactly what I want and need in them, as well as be able to fix them myself when something goes wrong. One of my friends told me that if someone wanted to date me, they better not show up with flowers, but with software if they want to get my attention....thing is that has some truth to it!

I earned an Associates Degree in "Media Technology/Web" in 2011. Oh yeah, I was one of those people who had a Texas Instruments 99/4A “Home Computer.” I wished I had stayed in tune with all things technology-related, but back then, they seemed like just toys. I didn't realize there would be a future in it. I am married to my wonderful wife of 24 years, we have 2 kids, a 12 year old girl and a 17 year old boy.**//

 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;"> Relationships **

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;"> 1. Get totally out of credit-type debt with more aggressive tactics. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;"> 2.

 * <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;"> Personal **

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">My reasons for joining a Lifebushido recruiting triangle may seem to be shallow at first, but the prospects of being able to regain some financial-freedom for my self is not the only motivating factor. After all, I do have a family to do a better job of supporting again. I also want to grow beyond the stereotype that says, “someone who receives disability assistance from the government can't be worth much,” mentality that I sometimes encounter. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">Within one year, I aspire to be fully successful in my own multifaceted home business, which will include Lifebushido. <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">Within 5 years, I expect to have grown so far beyond my perceived “capabilities,” that even I, will be amazed when I look at the past.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">**My perfect job** <span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">As I have said in the past, I know I will enjoy my perfect job so much, that it will be scary to some people. My health does require an amount of flexibility, which would allow me to work from home, online and to also communicate that way. Actually, this is kind of surreal, because I believe the perfect job is staring me in the face. Another thing about my perfect job, it would definitely be one that allows for branching out, for growing one's abilities. I believe that can take place with some effort on my part. This place is a fertile environment to grow out of.

<span style="font-family: Verdana,Geneva,sans-serif; font-size: 110%;">**Day 3 -** Today we all ponder what we would do if we only had a year to live. We learn a little more about each other as well as ourselves.
