More Money By Changing Choices

Wednesday, July 16th, 2008

You decide where you money goesUnderstanding that you have choices is truly empowering. Just the knowledge that you are the one who really decides where your money goes, that you are the one who chooses every month to pay your bills, is empowering. And if you can make changes to the choices that you make, then you can start immediately to illicit a change in your financial future, and in your accumulation of wealth.

What Can You Change?

To harness the power of choice you first have to take a look at the way you currently spend and allocate your money, and then begin to change that practice in your favor.

On your list you surely have many bills to pay; many perceived necessities, and hopefully a column for you as well. Often the way that money is managed the bills and necessities get paid first, and you are paid as an afterthought, funds permitting. The problem with this is that by organizing your finances this way you hardly ever—if ever—get around to the “you” column. You are last on the priority list, and last to be paid. And when something has to give, it is you that goes without. And without paying you, you will never build wealth. As Jamie McIntyre says, saving is elemental to building wealth.

So what on this list can you change? You have a few choices. You can

• Change the order to make you a priority

• Change who you decide to pay (wipe some things off the list entirely)

• Change how much you pay (decide on an amount that you are willing to budget to each)

You do have bills and financial obligations, but you do have the ability to choose how that is done, and the ability to do it in a way that makes space for wealth and prosperity in your life—in a way that makes you a top financial priority. To learn this more specifically, I encourage you to check out the free eBook that Jamie offers over at the 21st Century Academy; he gives some very specific ways to deal with bills and debts and allocate money to you. If you find yourself struggling to find the money to be the foundation of your wealth, this is something you’ll want to read.

Just remember the choices are all yours. And those choices are power—the power to create wealth and live prosperously. Get yourself on a power trip to financial success!

Surround Yourself With The Company Of Success

Friday, July 4th, 2008

“You are the company you keep.”It’s sort of like “you are what you eat.” Today we’re talking about the people that surround you and their impact on your financial life.

Who Are The Company You Keep?

Take a look at your life and think about the company you keep. Think about all the company you keep, including

• Online friends

• Blog communities (like this one)

• Offline relationships

• Personal relationships

• Business associations

• Work relationships

Think about all the people you talk, read, or listen to, and the overall types of company you keep. You may not even have directly communicated with any of these people (such as when you read a blog or forum…), but if you follow what they say, you are keeping company with them. And the kinds of company you keep will have a very strong impact on your financial success; more than you might realise.

Keep The Company You Want To Be

Those of us following men and women like Jamie McIntyre, or programs like the 21st Century Academy, have been introduced to the power of attraction. In this case that power is the power of like attracting like. Applied to your personal associations and building wealth, that translates thusly: keep company with positive and successful people and that is what you will become. You will attract positivity and success to you and into your life. But keep company with negative and unsuccessful people and that is what you will draw to you.

This does not mean that negative people are bad people, just that they are bad for you in terms of success and wealth creation. You need to limit those influences in your life and focus on building an influence of wealth.

We can not entirely avoid negative people, but we can decide what affect we will let those people have on our lives by deciding the role we let them play in ours. Focus on building relationships with people who are strong, motivated, supportive, and focused on the good, and that is the type of person you will become. Choose your company carefully, as when you look back at yourself, you will see that you certainly do become the company you keep.

Rewire Your Subconscious—Interview With You

Sunday, June 1st, 2008

Rewire Your Financial SubconsciousIn each of the 21st Century Academy courses, Jamie McIntyre has outlined an effective, yet beautifully simple way to reveal your true financial attitude and rewire your financial subconscious. It starts very easily with a process of holding a candid interview—with you!

Qualify ‘Easy’

I feel I should qualify that statement a bit. By ‘easy’, I mean that the process itself is simplistic (yet effective). It’s a simple question and answer process. And I’d love to tell you it is painless, too, but as we all know, sometimes reigniting old thoughts we’ve worked to forget can cause some emotional pain. I hope for you that this is very limited. But above everything, I do not want that to deter you from this process. You cannot heal something that you cannot confront. And like so many others, I do believe that you will find that pain to be therapeutic. And through this process, you can let go of it once and for all.

Ask Yourself This

Do you equate money with pain or pleasure? What do you really equate money with? Not sure? You’re not alone. Start this process off by figuring out what you really think of money. Ask yourself a few questions:

• When is the last time money made you feel pressured?

• Are you experiencing financial pressure right now?

• If you had more money, would that relieve the pressure?

• Was there a time in memory that you felt no pressure from money at all?

Of course, there are no right or wrong answers here, just yours.

When you reflect upon these answers, you will gain some perspective on the pain vs. pleasure that money represents to you. From there, you’ll have to work to make sure that money represents more pleasure to you than pain. That’s quite a process, but it can be and is done. And you can do it too! Join us again and we’ll start talking about some ways to bring more pleasure into your life than pain—to stop letting pain and negativity rule your world, both financially and personally. Come back and we’ll talk more about the methods that Jamie McIntyre has used in the 21st Century Academy to improve financial attitudes, and bring more positivity to life.

Financial Success in the 21st Century

Monday, October 15th, 2007

It’s another day at an excellent 21st Century Academy Seminar. This time I’m in Auckland at the Internet & Business Mastery Seminar. Last week Perth – Australia was the venue. After a 6 hour flight and 5 hours of time difference, I’m in New Zealand enjoying the hospitality of our great neighbours. Once again, I am pleasantly exposed to the teachings of Jamie McIntyre and learning about Financial Success in the 21st Century.

21st Century Academy

When I was 37, I was introduced to 21st Century Academy by a newspaper ad. I ordered a wealth creation DVD and was watching it only a few days later. I soon found myself taking massive action moving towards a goal of Financial Freedom. 3 ½ years later I’m well on the way and kicking financial goals that I only dreamt of in the past. Jamie McIntyre certainly taught me how to take charge of my own financial future and create my own wealth.

Learn To Be Rich

On track to financial freedom, I now engaged into a homestudy program so I could Learn To Be Rich. This was the education for life homestudy program by Jamie McIntyre. This took me 3 weeks and within 2 months I was trading on the stock market and making a profit on a monthly basis. I was now on track towards Financial Success in the 21st Century. By attending the 21st Century Academy seminar in October 2004, I drove the knowledge home and was able to kick my investments into a higher gear. The same DVD I watched back then is available on this wealth creation website.

Here’s to Financial Success in the 21st Century
