What a title huh? Here lately students of mine, my mentors, and my wife all have been tugging at me to let the world understand a little better who Josh Peak is. They have wanted me to let people know where I came from, the struggles I have had to get to the position I am today, I guess you would call it what Joe Schroeder does in his book Alpha Code, the Tribal Stamp.

After taking a 3.2-mile run in the dark tonight, and listening to Eric Clapton, I really have tapped into myself. So here it goes. Most of you know I am doing quite well in my business life, but it wasn’t always that way. You see I started in network marketing in 2000, but after I had a short 7-month stint in the corporate world, and found out I am just psychologically UNEMPLOYABLE. I got my start in a well known wellness company in the MLM world, struggled for 3½ years, and then just took off, but noticed one huge thing, my members were struggling, I had NO system. You see, MLM and Network Marketing is NOT a system, it’s simply a distribution model of moving products and services, but the people are the system. I didn’t understand that philosophy until I met people like Jeff Magee, Bill Bartmann, and Robert Blackman.

But, let’s talk about another struggle I had. I bet you never knew Josh Peak struggled with Anxiety; I didn’t either, until sitting in a church pew back in 2002, when I started to sweat profusely thinking I was having a heart attack. I didn’t know what was going on, it was the weirdest and scariest thing that had happened to me. Thank God I never took medication for it, as most of you know, I am totally a person who is for natural cures. Thank God I met Charles Linden, the creator of the Linden Method, Thank God. See I was always a person who lived for tomorrow, and not for today. Depression is when you look in the rear view, Anxiety is when you worry about the future, and balance is when you live in the NOW!

My passions have always included helping people, whether it be creating a $250,000+ a year income, or helping people overcome their hurdles in business, I love helping people become the Champion they deserve to be.

After overcoming Anxiety Attacks, I started to really get in touch with my inner self, it’s crazy, I have talked with Top Executives, Attorneys, Doctors who suffer from Anxiety, even top athletes, who I will not mention their names. But all have said how weird it is after they conquer the hurdles of Anxiety, how their intuition becomes clearer, how much clarity they have in their life. That is when I started to really pay attention to successful people, even more than I did in the past. I have always read biographies since I was in grade school, my teachers all wanted me to read something different for a change. But, I really started to watch the companies and individuals who were branded, who went from outhouse to penthouse, i.e. The Hunt Brothers who tried to corner the silver market, Vince Lombardi and Barry Switzer in football, Dan Gable in wrestling, Yanik Silver in marketing, Warren Buffett, Peter Daniels, and Philip Judge in investing. I started to pay strong attention to these people. See if your going to be successful you have to hang with successful people, or at least read about them, and be in the moment with them while reading their story.

So branding became very much a passion to me, and still is to this day. Joe Schroeder has really made me understand what your upline and my upline just didn’t teach, that doesn’t make them bad people, they were just ignorant of how the Pyramid Lords did it. I got the chance to have first hand access to Joe Schroeder and the years of reading he has done, the library in his head, the wisdom he has gained. It would have taken me twenty years to get this on my own. Well, here I am today, with a society of people who I train, a true Team of people who I leverage, and they leverage me. This is how I have gone to the penthouse. There is even more to this story, which I will tell on a conference call in December, which will be recorded, you will want to be on it, believe me! It will become a product, and you will want to have your name included on the call, it’s branding.

I want to thank God for my wife who has been through these struggles with me. She’s more of a risk taker than me believe it or not, this woman is the true entrepreneur, see most millionaires have a great wife or husband behind them, I have been blessed to have not only a great wife and partner, but also a better half who is more of an entrepreneur and relationship builder than me…call me blessed? She’s also the mother of 3 children under the age of two at the moment, a 23 month old and twins at 4 months old, and still runs a Salon Business. I want to thank Joe Schroeder, for knocking 30 years off my learning curve, I love you Joe. Charles Linden, God put you in my life, and I honor you. You helped me overcome this scary thing called Anxiety, thank you. Also, thanks Jeff Magee, Bill Bartmann who is a former billionaire, and three-time millionaire, Bill is the epitome of failure and success, he will tell you that in his book Billionaire Secrets. Lastly, my students who have constantly pushed me to be successful day after day. Reminds me of my college wrestling coach Jody Thompson, thanks Jody for giving me that scholarship, and believing in me. He is like most successful business folks; he put his money where his mouth was. I could go on forever, but you see, at some point you have to start networking with the best, and then YOU too, can go from outhouse to penthouse.

With Love,

Josh Peak
