Creating Space For Wealth

Friday, March 20th, 2009

Jamie McIntyre came to learn a very important lesson that we all need to embrace before we can move on to wealth and prosperity. Continuing on from the last discussion, Jamie goes on to say,

“At the time, I did not realize it, buy by letting go, moving on, and forgetting about it I was creating the space for a lot more new money to come into my life. In the same situation, many other people would have been tempted to hang on and be upset, angry, and peeved off about what happened to them. I am not the only person that has been taken advantage of financially in one way or another, probably half the population has. For those who have not, what do you think is likely to happen in the next 10, 20, or 30 years? The question is how will you deal with it?”

–Jamie McIntyre, What I Didn’t Learn At School But Wish I Had

The Potential Is There For Everyone

The potential to find a reason in the past for our current lacking or limited success is there for all of us. As Jamie says, at some point in your life there is a great chance that something unfortunate will happen. The risk of these unfortunate events is not in the event itself, but in how you deal with it.

If you continue to dwell on the past or focus your energy on unfortunate occurrences, you do two things:

1) You use up all your time and energy wishing for something you can never get back, and
2) You fill up your life with that failure, leaving no room for anything better.

It is easy to feel sorry for ourselves and dwell in the past, and let someone else be to blame for the way we are today. It is far too easy. But it is painful, too. As I like to say,

“Life is not short. It’s the longest thing you’ll ever do!”

You deserve to do it well, and to enjoy the time spent doing it!

To Your Continued Success!

Determining Self Worth

Wednesday, January 16th, 2008

The 21st Century Academy course is a program developed by Jamie McIntyre to teach you how to invest and create wealth. It is largely based on investment strategies, but as we’ve talked about before, it is about a lot more.

The 21st Century Academy program is a course that teaches you to find wealth as well as create it. This is done in the interest of helping you find the money that is needed as seed-money for your investments, but it is also done in the interest of helping you give yourself your due.

What Are You Worth?

A problem that is common to many people who are failing to create wealth is that they do not realize or understand their own worth. This is a problem that negatively impacts financial freedom in more ways than one. This is a lesson that Jamie McIntyre’s millionaire mentor taught him and one that he passes on through the 21st Century Academy.

First, if you under-value yourself you undermine your own confidence and self-esteem; if you think you are worthless you will fulfill your own prophecy, and you will always be that which you believe you are.

Secondly, if you undervalue yourself you will allow others to do so, too. You will take less pay and compensation than you are worth, and probably give much more than you are remunerated for. You limit your own earning potential.

Each of these factors influences your access to money—money that you could be using to fund a truly worthwhile education, like a 21st Century Academy education, and money that you could be putting to work for you through the strategies that Jamie McIntyre is teaching.

Increasing Your Income

As Jamie’s mentor told him, and I am telling you now, you can quickly increase your income and available cash flow by learning what you are worth. Once you’ve done this, you can shop yourself around, earn at your fullest potential, and fund your investments to build wealth.

This is one of many lessons the 21st Century Academy is giving. Obviously, an investment in a 21st Century education is more than an investment in a finance program—it is an investment in yourself.

A Millionaire Mindset

Monday, November 5th, 2007

At the end of this month I’ll be heading to The Gold Coast, Australia to attend another Education For Life seminar with 21st Century Academy. Of course, Jamie McIntyre and his guest speakers will be there. I knew all along that Jamie has a Millionaire Mindset. What I didn’t know was how easy it is to get one. All it takes is an open mind. Hard task for some… but really, how hard should it be?

Wealth Creation

Now I have aquired the skill of mastering a Millionaire Mindset and can focus on improving areas like my personal Wealth Creation. I’m not bragging but rather pointing out the importance of this skill. I wont go into details about the mastery of a millionaire mindset but if you want to read more about lifestyle, mindset etc, you can go to the Sean Rasmussen blog. My mentor, Jamie McIntyre is a self made millionaire himself and has used the following skills: Remember to focus on the end result, ignore the piddly little obstacles (that might seem big at the time), think abundantly and be generous. All of those areas will be discussed in my personal blog at seanrasmussen.com

Until next time…

Heres to a Millionaire Mindset

21st Century Academy Wealth Vision

Sunday, September 30th, 2007

When I flew to Sydney to catch up with Jamie McIntyre recently, I filmed the Wealth Vision videos for 21st Century Academy. They contain commentary by Jamie where he runs you through his ebook, chapter by chapter. First you download the ebook, then you receive the online video links to see and hear Jamie McIntyre explain what the book is about.

Road to Financial Freedom

These Wealth Vision Videos have been very popular. The fact that they are free certainly helps. This is about the very book that I read 3 years ago that got me started on the Road to Financial Freedom. I’m 3 years down the road, I’m developing a Millionaire Mindset and a lot closer now than I ever dared to dream about in the past. I’m hoping the Wealth Vision Videos will speed up the likely hood of others taking the same action that I did 3 years ago. You don’t have to become a full time investor to do these things. Learn at your own pace. Read the book and watch the videos.

I Fired My Boss and Doubled My Income

Saturday, September 22nd, 2007

When I Fired My Boss, approximately 21 months ago, my first thought was on my immediate financial future. I was elated and overwhelmed with the fact that I had acheived my 2 year goal of replacing my income through investing. The strategies I learnt through the DVD with Jamie McIntyre certainly started me off and gave me the urgency to take immediate action. The one strategy that really stood out was: Renting Shares.

Renting Shares like a Sharelord

My first strategy was to be Renting Shares, just like a Sharelord. I’ll explain the term in the next post. Back to the story. I had quit my job. The pressure was now on. I had given up my JOB (Just Over Broke) and now had to step up to the plate. Everyone was watching. At least that was how it felt. One month into the job (or should I say: out of the job), I had nearly doubled my income again. I made over $18,000 in my first month as an unemployed bum! Look up the word happy in a dictionary and there was a picture of me! Smiling!

180% increase in 30 days

What had taken me 23 months to acheive (doubling my income by learning to invest), I had nearly acheived in 30 days once the shackles where off. I wanted to learn to be rich and in the process I had to develop a millionaire mindset. My mentor, Jamie McIntyre certainly had shown me how to do this. Putting it into action isn’t neccessarily all that easy, though. To create wealth you need another skill that takes a bit of time to aquire:

Emotional Intelligence is the key

What on earth is this, you may ask? Emotional Intelligence is the ability to manage a synergy of skills, such as money management when investing in the stock market or making decisions without emotional attachment. A good investor knows that emotions must stay out of the decision process. Investing is 10% strategy and 90% mindset. More about Emotional Intelligence later.

Financial Freedom isn’t far away

A few month later I had trippled my old daytime income. Needless to say, the pressure was off pretty quick. Financial Freedom is a now lot closer now than I ever hoped. I certainly have a lot to thank 21st Century Academy for. My mentor Jamie McIntyre has taught me a lot more than I ever expected. To think that I nearly didn’t even order his free DVD or read his ebook. I suppose, I wouldn’t have known any better if I hadn’t. The thought still scares me though.
