I truly appreciate your virtual mentorship. I'm homeless without a job right now after being physically assaulted and it was covered up from everyone involved including the police department. I watch your videos for motivation and inspiration. I am working on self-love and healing right now so I can get unstuck and utilize the tools and suggestions that you are providing. Thank you for all that you are doing.

Former homeless here. Skid Row, sleeping on buses, you get it. I just got a job offer as a software engineer, self-taught. - THE LIBRARY IS YOUR FRIEND!!!!!! - if you don't have a place to stay, sleep in the day, and visit 24 hr diners at night. Bring your library book, notebook, something to write with. Tell them you're there to study bc your roommates are a distraction. - if possible, 24 hr gyms like planet fitness are the Best For hygiene and safety. - sleep in the day, if you can. Best of luck to you. ❤ So proud of you for taking care of yourself!!

@@wyhawkins Guess what? You’re already unstuck! You’ve got an idea in your head that says something to the effect that your current situation is not your destination, right? You’ve found Arlan - perhaps others like myself as well - who are sharing what we’ve learned so far, in a way that is accessible to you right now - even while we remain eternal learners, as well. You are experiencing life in a way that gives you a unique story to tell, as you shift from one who is unhoused and unemployed to being successful business owner, a homeowner, and real estate investor, or whatever your goals are. You’re taking action by learning new things, planning your next moves, and doing what’s required to begin changing your life. I’m about to birth my first book. As you decide what’s next for you, remember that there’s a massive amount of information that is available for free. Obviously, if shelter isn’t secure, you’re not likely in a position to invest what funds you do have in coaching or consulting situations. That does *NOT* mean that you can’t bring your dreams into 3D. It only means that you’re someone who will invest your time and energy into learning what you need to know. Finding helpful resources that meet your budget takes time. But hey - you’ve got time now, right? Me too. I’m right here with you, as far as that goes - investing lots of time while I’ve got it. You can do it. I can do it. We can all do it. The question is: Will we? I don’t know what it feels like to be homeless. I hope that I never find out. I do know what it’s like to experience financial toxicity as well as other forms of instability. Peace to you on your healing journey. Stay safe, healthy, inspired and motivated. Cheers to you!

Hi! I was homeless. I rode out a tropical storm in a tent. You’ve got this. I pulled my self out of it. I created a little FREE ebooklet that explains exactly how I got myself out of it. Im not rich by any means but I’m happy. Link to that free ebook is in my bio. I created it so that anyone in that situation had a strategy if they had no means or support. The only thing I ask, is that you pay it forward when you get yourself out to somebody else in need.

Starting from being a photographer (like you) to building out web/blog sites, e-commerce sites, doing video projects and a lot of other things. I made small sales, over the years nothing like what you talking about, because I was all over the place trying to do too much. Now, this year, I’m going to focus… Thank you 🙏🏾!

This couldn't have come at a better time. I'm considering all your ideas to try this weekend! First off, homelessness is an awful reality. Painful, and a rut very difficult to climb out of. That being said, I have a job that's almost full time and I CAN ask for more hours if I want! Currently trying to reduce that number lol but open to picking up extra shifts moving forward to give myself a regular routine of reg. pay as well as overtime pay. Also, I've just recently made the decision to do print-to-order t-shirt design! I'm expecting my first hoodie sample in a couple of days and I've been racking my brain to try to figure out how I can sell a bunch using a pre-order model. I think your bumpsales technique could work and I'm SO excited to try! Thanks so much for this wealth of information! It's truly from people who know what it's like to be down and push themselves to get ahead that know how to give advice on work ethic, attitude and morale when it comes to pursuing goals.

I am a fiber and graphic designer. I'm presently building a website (🤬) to present my graphic designs for sale on canvas, fabric and other items. I am learning how to crochet handbags and a very special ethnic bag as well. My selling theme is "cottagecore" I intend this to grow, but I'm more interested in articulating and combining those skills more to my desired focalpoint. I've been grinding on this while homeless for months! I started watching Arlan at just a perfect time! I feel I'm right on track. Even more confident watching this video. A thousand dollars by itself won't get me off the street, but it will get me closer to much needed meals that aren't such garbage and be able to physically DO more. I gotta get back to the present grind: binging Arlan videos while crocheting 'high end' handbags to sell locally and online. My biggest hurdle is getting stranded in a totally ignorant town whose library is closed more than open. This town is also very prejudice against homeless. Plugging in a phone, accessing wifi, let alone bathrooms; is very challenging. I remember to stay up. Just keep my head up and with blinders on, imma get there. I've also reached out to people watching Arlan's videos who have websites on their YT profile 😉 Can't hurt to ask questions about their website and how they got where they are etc. Thanks so much Arlan, for providing the knowledge and compassion we all so easily overlook when we're get tangled up in the weeds😊❤

Hi Arlan and everyone! I am really grateful you popped up on my KZbin feed a couple weeks ago, your videos and story and energy have been so inspiring, and very timely. I am in the midst of a career shift and have been overwhelmed by defining what it is. I have a lot of energy and value to offer in my couple decades as a working artist in the industrial arts. I have many other credentials like personal fitness trainer, wellness coach and Class A commercial driver….I have realized this last few years I have held myself back from fully putting myself out there, and the block still shows up as being in major financial insecurity as I am Still trading hard manual labor for money: it’s just been so engrained. Anyways, I am an LGBTQ community member and truly want to put myself out there, like you do in a way, that shares my story with people to be of service in helping people find their passions and find what helps them thrive. So I am going to try the landing page and offer my services of fitness and wellness coaching. And as this grows and evolves I have a long term plan of creating my own public art sculptures that will travel the world and bring people together with beautiful experiential visual art!!!
