Hello Reader!

My name is Jerokiah James Darr, born in Edison, New Jersey and raised in Garden City, Michigan.  After my father passed away, life was confusing and my goals were unclear.  I knew however that I wanted to live life to the fullest, it’s too short to not enjoy afterall.  So, I decided to enlist in the U.S. Army Infantry and serve my country.  The discipline and life perspective I gained while serving (especially overseas), changed my life focus and gave me some new direction.

During my second tour to Iraq with the 101st Airborne (Air Assault) Division, a complex ambush left my troops wounded, claiming the life of my driver (Sergeant Corey Dan).  The truck took a direct hit from three anti-tank mines in the form of a command-detonated (IED) improvised explosive device.  Although IED explosions are very a very common, everyday occurence in terrorist-infested countries, this one did something to me mentally that I won’t try to explain.  Psychologists label it as (PTSD) Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, but all I know is that life has been dramatically different ever since.  I was medically evacuated.

After returning to the states as a two-time decorated veteran of war, life sucked.  I was suffering from severe anxiety disorder, severe depression, a host of other conditions, and the medication did little to lift my spirits.  Over medicated and sick of the harassment from the unit, I was at the end of the road and my instincts took over.  It was either fight or flight.  In this case, I was becoming very homicidal and suicidal all at once – I was scared – I was vulnerable – I went AWOL!

After almost 6 months of hiding, running, and avoiding the authorities, I hired a lawyer and turned myself in.  Life didn’t get better for some time, but it’s all about choices and taking responsibility for your actions, so I took action.  After several months I was Honorably Discharged and ready to move on with life.  A lot of details are being omitted because this is not a book and some things are better left unsaid.

The transition to civilian life wasn’t too bad.  A few months after discharge the disability checks started coming in and I enrolled for the Software Engineering Technology bachelor program at ITT Tech.  I really enjoy working with computers and my dad ran a successful business as a programmer/consultant, so I decided it was the best course.  Since late May 2008 I began growing an interest in internet marketing when I was browsing the internet one day.  At the time I was an avid online gamer with agoraphobia (social disorder) so the addiction was hard to break but well-worth pursuing interests with a return on investment.  Personal development interests led me to Success University!  The team and the opportunity have been one of the best investments I’ve ever made.  As of June 1st, 2009, Success University has merged with World Ventures, the leader of the travel industry, a controversial and genius move!

Now I absolutely love networking with successful people and helping others to earn a residual income.  I own and operate a targeted manual traffic exchange full-time when I’m not in classes and work on mostly PHP scripts in my free time.  I enjoy life and look to earn a very substantial income by the end of 2009, enough to get the BMW 745i and possibly pay off my house.  Success follows personal development and life experience put to action, and if you help others through duplication then financial freedom is inevitable.  By nature we are social creatures, so I was on a path of self-destruction and invested thousands to finally learn the mistakes I was making were all based off my pessimistic outlook.
