What Do Unicorns & Raptors Have in Common?
**Warning. Warning.** This message is about Jon Olson aka @jongolson. 

If you're someone who's complaining about the raw deal you got on TE credits from 2008, you should probably leave because this message may anger you. 

If you're someone who's going to say that I am only doing this because I'm sucking up to him....he doesn't pay me anymore so I get to be completely honest...and you should probably leave because this message may anger you.

<em>Okay, you've been warned...</em>

Jon Olson is someone that I consider to be a good friend. He also happens to be a mentor who I have learned a great deal from and I respect tremendously.

I've known him for almost 10 years now and worked for him for 3 of those 10 years. I don't say that to boast but to give merit to the fact that I feel like I know him well enough to make this post. I'm also secretly hoping he doesn't kill me...

Here's the thing I respect the most about Jon - his passion. It's unparalleled to anyone else that I've seen in this industry. When Jon is fired up and in his element, it transcends through the computer screen. It's quite honestly fun to watch! Over the last decade, I've witnessed this work for him and against him.

When you aren't in a place in your life where you're ready to hear the truth, someone like Jon can really get under your skin...and he did that to a lot of people who simply didn't want to hear that success is not an overnight thing. He's extremely honest to a fault and I have to say, if you aren't ready to hear the truth he's probably not the guy you want helping you. However, if you ARE ready to hear the truth and WILLING to try and put the work in, he'll have your back for life.

I know this from experience. I've come and gone from this industry more times then I can count. I've actually avoided him because I knew what he was going to tell me! All those nuggets we used to hear at TE Live (for anyone around who remembers those days) like <strong>"Get in line, stay in line"</strong> or <strong>"99% of the people won't do this, so make sure you do!"</strong> or <strong>"You have to put in the work, there is no easy button"</strong>....remember those? Yeah...he actually MEANT them! This is his biggest passion and (other then the Toronto Raptors who are still NBA world champions, by the way!) he truly wants to see you succeed!

Why am I saying this? 

No, he's not paying me to say this and to be honest, I'm not sure how happy he'll be about this post (haha) but I am going to anyways because of all that he's done for me. It's been a long 10 years and some of it was not easy but I am not sure I am able to really tell you just how much Jon has impacted my professional life. He'll give you the shirt off his back but you have to show up and be ready to do the work!

If you're brand new and think that this Jon Olson guy sounds super cool, you're wrong! Just kidding...he's super cool and you can see why by checking out some of his super cool programs that he runs with his super cool business partner Blain Jones @blainjones, below:

If Jon never did anything but that sliding piece of paper with the numbers on it as a path to success it'd be enough.  

I've known Jon at least most of that 10 years.  It's not always been roses but it's always been respectful.  I've chosen a somewhat different path the last couple of years, but I've kept at least sorta current.

Jon's helped me a ton over the years.  Not the 'helping me helps you' mentality but he's gone completely out of his way more times than I can count.

I'm happy for him and his Raptors.  Now if only we could have a Bills v Cardinals Superbowl I'd be over the moon...

Thanks Janelle.  Another great post!

Kind words come easy for me when I'm talking about people like you.

Wouldn't want any fights so I'll just say "Go Cardinals' 😂

Great post! I don't know Jon nearly as long as you guys do, but from the little time I have spent in this community (being introduced by Jon and his Start Earning Today program), I can surely see what you are talking about.

I've said it before on this platform and I'll say it again... Jon is clearly a man of his word and when he says something you can pay attention. He not only talks, but he's also doing it.

Took a few hours to digest this. 

Thank you Janelle. This post mean a big deal to me. I appreciate the kind words but also knowing all the madness this journey has seen. 

Thank you for always having my back. This gig is VERY easy when I surround myself daily with amazing people   You guys in CTP are truly remarkable.

Great post @jangle I knew Jon from online marketing before CTP, Let me reframe that, "I knew of him" @Jongolson has always been an inspiration and a real leader. Even through his own personal hard ships he has been there, showed up to chat and inspire others. Jon is a true leader and has proven that over and over by leading by example. (No Matter What) Jon has maintained his enthusiasm and huge passion for success and helping others. That is what makes a person a true leader. I don't know if Jon really knows how much he had impacted people and how much he is appreciated. If it hadn't been for Jon I'd probably be with the 99% who gave up. So Jon, thank you for being you and doing what you do, don't change a thing. 😁❤👍

This was very nice of you, Janelle! It's nice to see a post that just says big THANK YOU!

Jon is a great guy... I don't know him for that long, but to me, it looks like we went to the same school and been the best buddies for whole life... :)

Thank you :) I agree it's nice. Going to try to do that more often to people. Lifting others up.
