Changing The Little Things To Make Big Life Changes

Sunday, May 18th, 2008

The path to change is built brick by brickThe most surprising thing for people coming into the 21st Century Academy programs is that Jamie McIntyre isn’t teaching big life change so much. The impact is big, but the path to that change is built brick by brick in much smaller ways.

Start Small

The kinds of changes that the 21st Century Academy will teach you to make in the interest of financial freedom—and in fact overall better living—are not huge adjustments. The sum of the whole is a big overall change that results in better living, more financial control, and financial freedom, but to get there you will go through many small changes.

It is amazing to see how small, really simple, life changes can affect your overall outcome. There are many little things that Jamie McIntyre and the 21st Century Academy will show you that will start changing your life the minute you learn about them. You’ll learn little things about

• Your attitude

• Your spending and saving

• Simple lifestyle changes, like de-cluttering your life to make room for abundance

• Thinking more positively to attract more positivity in your life

• Changing your perception and attitudes about money

• Many more small ways to change big!

All of these are things that you can do step by step, day by day to elicit big change and make room for financial success in your life. It doesn’t have to be painful to learn with the 21st Century Academy. It doesn’t have to consume all of your time. You can make room for these changes, because you can take a small, simple step, every day. And one of these days, unbeknownst to you, you’ll wake up and see how Jamie McIntyre’s small suggestions have changed your life big-time!

21st Century Academy For International Wealth Creation

Saturday, March 15th, 2008

Where do you live?   Australia?  Great. Let’s get you started making money. The U.S.?  Great. Let’s get you started making money. The U.K.?  Great. Let’s get you started making money. 

Sensing a theme?

Your senses do not deceive you; Jamie McIntyre’s 21st Century Academy wealth creation courses are for you, no matter where you live.  Consider his an internationally applied program for wealth creation. The really good wealth creation courses and books apply to just about anywhere in the world.  How can that be so?  Because, as you probably know, trading and investing is a global money function.  The basic concepts are simple and easily generalized if you just learn a few local rules, and they can be applied to make money in many, many areas. More importantly, though, is that the real driving force behind wealth creation and the 21st Century Academy is not the financial strategies Jamie McIntyre teaches at all.

The real driving force that helps people make money, the focus of more than half of what Jamie McIntyre teaches and the overwhelming factor in wealth creation success is mindset.   Anyone engaged in or familiar with the 21st Century Academy courses will not be surprised to hear this.  Money does not make rich men (or women, we’re no sexists, ladies) rich.  Financial intelligence and attitude do. The mindset of the wealthy is overwhelmingly consistent among rich people in all nations.  Their knowledge and aptitude, paired with their determination to succeed and be rich, is what makes the difference.

This is not something that is dependent on location or origin of natural birth.  It is, however, something you can change about yourself if you really want to. This is precisely where the 21st Century Academy comes in. This is exactly what Jamie teaches.  And this is why this program is a program for international wealth creation.

What Makes Financial Intelligence So Important?

Wednesday, March 12th, 2008

Financial Intelligence is one of the most important aspects of wealth creation, and it is one of the areas Jamie McIntyre focuses heavily on in the 21st Century Academy; yet still, some people repel the idea of needing to learn and become financially intelligent.  So what makes financial intelligence important? 

It Takes More To Make More

 I’m not referring directly to money here, although the objective of wealth creation is to make more money and then put that to work to make more money again.  This time, I am talking about education.  If you are operating only on the education you got in school or University you need more.  You need more education to make more money.   But you’ve got a good job, right?  Or maybe you don’t.  But your job holds the promise of making more money, yes?  Sure.  Some more, but not significantly and not in the volume or the timeframe that will allow you to be financially free. To make the kind of money you need to be able to consider yourself wealthy, the kind of money Jamie McIntyre will teach you to make through life changes, the focus of the 21st Century Academy, you need to become financially intelligent. 

 Here’s the short version of why: In school, we learned how to go to work. There were no classes, though, that taught wealth creation.  There were not even classes that taught us good money management skills.  Nothing in school taught you how to put money into real assets and make money to build wealth. The lessons we learned in school were just not adequate for wealth creation.  For that, you need to learn many things—like mindset, emotional control (emotional intelligence), and basic investment.  For that, you need what Jamie McIntyre has to teach you.  You need to learn financial intelligence from the 21st Century Academy.

What Is Financial Intelligence?

Monday, December 17th, 2007

Financial intelligence is the other part of the mind’s equation that you need to solve in order to make money and create wealth. Financial Intelligence is emotional intelligence’s other half. Together, they create the whole of the mindset that you need to build wealth successfully.

Financial Intelligence Defined

Here, quoted, is Jamie McIntyre’s definition for financial intelligence—the one he uses in his 21st Century Academy courses. In Jamie’s words, you are financially intelligent if you

…have money work for you, not just work for money

Financial intelligence is nothing you would have learned in school or at university. The reason is simple. Schools and universities don’t teach people how to be financially intelligent.

Be Financially Dependent? Yeah, Right!

Schools and universities teach people how to be financially dependent. How to be workers and have a job! Now as a disclaimer, I’ll tell you that there is nothing wrong with hard work, if that’s your thing, but working hard is not the way to create wealth, and it will not lead you to a life of early retirement and financial freedom, leastwise not as wealth creation will.

You should also realize that financial intelligence is not about learning how to play the banks’ games. You won’t get rich following what the bank tells you makes good financial sense, or investing in the banks’ ideas of assets. Overall, what the banks tell you are assets are really liabilities, because they do nothing to put money into your pocket; worse, most only drain your cash flow.

The Mindset To Make Money

Financial intelligence is an all-encompassing term for what Jamie McIntyre has been able to surmise in the sentence quoted above. Whereas emotional intelligence is the mindset you need to make money, financial intelligence can be categorized as your strategy for wealth creation. These are both integral parts of wealth creation, and teaching them to you is what the 21st Century Academy does best.

Until next time…

4 Day Education For Life Seminar

Saturday, November 24th, 2007

It’s nearly time for the 4 Day Education For Life Seminar with 21st Century Academy again. This time it’s on the Gold Coast and the line up consists of Jamie McIntyre and his many guest speakers. The cashflow strategies and financial intelligence that is taught is as always highly valued by the ones who are prepared to have an open mind.

Education For Life

I’m on the Gold Coast right now visiting a couple of the residing guest speakers. Their input next week at the Education For Life seminar will be great! One stock market investor has just taught me how to make so much return on my investment per month, I can’t mention it here as it would possibly get me into trouble (by the ones with closed minds). I look very much forward to the seminar as always. I look forward to meeting many of the new graduates there.

Until next time…

Heres to a an education for life
