To kick off Season 3 of Project Mindset we recorded the podcast live at Connect Studio in Orange CA.  We sat down with Kevion's sister Marina and had an open discussion about the 7 equities, be do have, and other processes to help people get through daily life.

For our final installment of the 7 Equity series we brought on the man, the myth, the legend, Thach Nguyen!  Thach Nguyen has come a long way since arriving in America at age 4 with his parents, four brothers, and sister in 1975. Focus, drive, determination, and great mentors paved the way for him to go from homeless refugee to a multi-millionaire.  

Thach is the CEO & Founder of Thach Real Estate Group and principal of Springboard to Wealth. He is not only a seasoned realtor, investor, coach, author, and speaker, but also a proud ambassador of the American Dream. During his 27 years in the real estate industry, he has built more than 300 homes, townhouses, and multifamily units and completed over 100 flips. Thach and his team have assisted more than 1,500 families to create their own American Dream of home ownership, ranking him in the Top 1% of all real estate professionals nationwide.
 

Today, Thach and his wife Camie own 150 investment properties which generate more than $100,000/month in NET passive income. They are also actively developing hundreds of units on the West Coast from single families and townhouses, to apartment buildings

Thach’s journey from homeless refugee to multi-millionaire taught him that wealth goes far beyond financial success alone. Today he is committed to giving back by creating affordable housing for the less fortunate and sharing his life as an example that anything is possible so others will be inspired to live their goals and dreams. 
 

His rags to riches story and unique brand of contribution-based success, captured the attention of The Seattle Times, NW Asian Weekly, Puget Sound Business Journal, The International Examiner, and The Early Show on CBS.  

​

Thach finds balance traveling to his family’s favorite vacation spots in Maui, Southern California, and Asia. When not working on Real Estate deals together, he and Camie enjoy attending their sons’ baseball and soccer games. 

This week we wanted to share the Podcast that started it all for Kevion.  On Drama's Short Story Long Episode 50, Kevion told his story that resonated with thousands of people.  After such an incredible response Kevion decided it was time to start the Project Mindset Podcast.  This week would actually be our 50th episode and in tribute to what brought us to where we are we present Short Story Long Episode 50.

For the equity of social we brought on Melissa Perry who is the Brand Manager for Rolls Royce  of Orange County.  She is also a Sales and Marketing professional with six years of significant experience in driving revenue for both local/national brands and consumer products. Accomplished in driving sales and building brand awareness through various channels such as print, social media, digital platforms and events.

7 EQUITY SERIES | MINDSET

For the Next 7 weeks we are bringing on an expert in each of the 7 equities.  This week we brought back one of our first guests, Mike Diamond.

Mike Diamond is a Television Personality, Director, Life Coach, and Interventionist. Known for his work on the hit TV shows NY Ink and Bondi Ink Tattoo Crew, which is currently nominated for a Logie Award for Best Reality Series.

Originally from Perth, Western Australia, Mike got off to a bit of a rough start. Battling undiagnosed dyslexia, he started using drugs and alcohol at age 12. At age 16, he was expelled for Aquinas College and finished at Melville H.S. Immediately after graduation, Mike moved to Sydney and enrolled at the Actors Center. He got a job at a local clothing store which, unbeknownst to him at the time, would change his life forever. Lady Luck was on Mike’s side when a customer at the store handed him a Green Card Lottery ticket. Mike won a green card in 1997 and made the move to Miami. Shortly after his arrival, Mike landed a role on the CBS sitcom, Grapevine from Director David Frankel. After Grapevine, Mike moved to NYC, where he worked on various projects including as a guest star on Sex and the City. Mike wrote, created and starred in a VH1 pilot with former STP and Velvet Revolver front man, Scott Weiland. Splitting his time between NYC, Miami and Los Angeles, Mike had regular gigs performing stand up at Caroline’s on Broadway and The Comedy Store. Mike was properly introduced into the tattoo world when he appeared on Miami Ink. He later became the store manager for his good friend, Ami James, at Wooster St and starred on Season 3 of NY Ink. Mike then headed back to his hometown where he wrote, directed, produced, and starred in Bondi Ink Tattoo Crew, based on Bondi Beach. Although Mike has had plenty of “highs” in his life, he has also had his “low” moments along the way. Mike has battled cocaine and alcohol addiction for the majority of his life. The defining moment came at the height of his career while shooting a TV show for VH1. To the outside world, Mike looked like he was living the dream but on the inside, Mike was spiritually bankrupt and miserable. He realized that if he didn’t turn his life around, he was going to die. April 16, 2006 was the day Mike Diamond got sober. Since then, Mike has literally helped hundreds of people on the road to recovery. He is on beck and call to all his clients and friends, helping them through their life problems and battles with addiction.

What's the first thing you think about the moment you wake up? IDK about you but for me it's usually going back to bed.  So what do we do...we aim to get up and take over the day... conquer these goals, hustle 24/7, crush it, no days off, own the day...but first let me press the SNOOZE button... let me go ahead and delay my awesomeness...let me go ahead and make my first action of the day be procrastination.  Falling back.. letting the resistance win and very rarely do we feel good about that extra 10 minutes.  I'm usually more tired the second time I wake up.

It's when I push through, stand up on the first shot, stretch, get them kicks on and overcome that resistance.  It's when we start our day on that note, that we get all the green lights, deals start coming together, doors start opening for us.  Is it just a coincidence or is it a scientific fact that you are a magnet to how you feel and when we wake up and realize our awesomeness, we naturally attract more people, opportunities and situations that match with that vibe.  It's like you wake up and are a superhero that day!  We've all experienced this... the question is, how do we manifest that unstoppable, legendary vibe 365?!

In this weeks Think Big Thursday coach Kevion breaks down why he ran a 5k a day for 100 days, biked a 1000 miles and his new 365 day challenge.  Stay focused. Stay inspired!
