People Inspired to Make a Career
Change
and Create
Their Own Dream Jobs

As I have said in places such as
my Career Change
Webpage, I am still amazed by how many letters I
have received from individuals who told me that they parted
ways with their employer after reading one of my books.
Below is an e-mail from a reader of
Real Success Without a Real Job
(now called
Career Success Without a Real Job: The Career Book
for People Too Smart to Work in
Corporations) who read the book
after it was recommended by After being recommended by Dan
Miller from 48 Days.

Subject: read your book
Mr.
Zelinski,
After being recommended by Dan Miller from
48Days I
recently read your
book Real Success
Without a Real Job (now
called
Career Success without a
Real Job:
The Career Book for People Too Smart to
Work in Corporations).
I have to tell you I really enjoyed
it. You were comical, honest,
and straight forward. I even took
notes while reading and answered all the
questions. I plan on going back over
those.
I am a stay at home mother of 7 children
ages 23 months-16 years. Raising my
children is and will be the most important
thing I do, but I also am fed up with our
current situation and I am finally
motivated to do whatever it takes to change
it. I will say with all honesty and
not disrespect my husband is not providing
adequately for us nor is motivated
to. So I am going to learn what God
made me out of and I'm going to be
it!
You are the second book I've read in this
journey. I have now started
The Millionaire
Mind.
I like your best/worst things to do with
your time lists; they are now glued to the
side of the refrigerator. I
repeatedly show my teenage sons what list
watching TV is on.
Thanks for backing me up as one of my
children thinks I'm just a freak about the
TV since I continually tell him to get
off! I'm so close to canceling
cable.
Please know I plan on utilizing many
factors you stated in you book and that it
is playing a part in my exciting and
sometimes frightening new journey.
Way to go on your success your fulfillment
is relayed in your book.
God Bless,
Carolyne Jimenez

The following e-mail was sent to me from a reader of my
book
The Lazy Person's Guide To
Success. In my later
book Career Success Without a Real
Job, I talk about how I quit writing this
The Lazy Person's Guide To
Success. after I thought it was not
worth finishing. I decided to complete it later,
however, and this book has now sold over 95,000 copies and
has made me over $90,000 in pretax profits.
The reader's name is Yulius and he read the Indonesian
edition.

Hi Ernie,
I'd like to write to you since the first
time I read your book
The Lazy Person's Guide To
Success. I
am from Indonesia (you knew about
Bali?,that's one island in my country).
My name is Yulius, 29 years old, still
single, getting fired from my office
because my mistakes and another people who
hate me.
Since the first year of working I hate my
job. I worked at administration job. My
main job was signing document. Other people
may saw my job is so good but I saw it dull
and boring. I had worked from 2006 till
2010.
Since 2007 I searched way to get out from
this misery. I was Internet Marketing, not
so motivated, Options, burned out but keep
doing it until I found my sanctuary at
Trading Futures. I worked from 9 to 5, 2
hours on the street, Monday to
half-Saturday and 8.30pm to 00.00 or even
more I am trading. I did it over the last 2
years.
Then my faithful day was come. I was forced
to resign with decent compensation. I took
it without a doubt since my Trading Career
getting better and better. Now I am 3 days
unemployment but I am a full time trader. I
worked at night. And I had my best trade
after I got fired. To make the story short
my 3 days income equal to my 3 months
salary. Rock On..!
As you say it's not about the money and it
is. I love every minute in my life.
Thank you Ernie, you made the great part in
my life. Here's what I want to do
1. Study Computer Programming, I
love it but never do it.
2. loss fat about 30 lbs
3. Full Time Trader
4. Future Trainer and Book Writer,
I even wanted to write the same
theme of your book.
5. Part-Time Fitness Instructor
:)
6. Hang out with friends at least
twice a week
7. Starting a Course Business
8. Open an Internet Shopping
Business
9. Go to another country at least 3
times a year.
10. Freelance Programmer and
Consultant
11. 1000 more things that
impossible to do if I were still
working.
I don't know if I want to go to Corporate
Life again because I HATE OFFICE POLITICS
!!! I hate it so much, disgusting and make
me sick. If you knew a Corporation that
don't have politics please let me know :)
Thanks again, your book open my mind and
made me what I am now. Keep writing, I love
all your books.
PS : So sorry if my letter's messy. English
is not my primary language.
Warm Regard,
Yulius
