21st Century Academy

Perhaps you are wondering where this wealth empowerment program is going to take you; what Jamie McIntyre will lead you to. It’s hard to say definitively, but one thing is sure—if you don’t go along for the ride, there is no way you will ever get there to find out.

Fear And Hesitation Do Not Live Here

It seems to be human nature to be hesitant to explore new things. At least it seems to be modern human nature; it must not have always been this way, or our world would be much smaller still. For the average person, though, fear, hesitation, and anxiety creep into the mind any time a new experience is proposed.

Even given the possibilities that a premier wealth education can open up to you, we tend to hesitate. We think about all the things that could go wrong, all the time we might waste, all the things that might not “work,” and we put roadblocks in our own path to success. These roadblocks can be hard to overcome until you come to some realizations.

Unblocking The Road To Wealth

You have to realize something if you are to overcome this type of hesitation—you can’t have something you have never had unless you do something you never did—go somewhere you’ve never gone.

The only thing that is sure is that the status quo will remain for as long as you take no action to change it. Until you learn to build wealth, you will not have money and you will not be rich. You will be precisely where you are right now. That’s fine if you’re happy with your current state, but since you are here I would guess that isn’t the case.

Hesitation is normal. It is also a huge reason why so many people fail to find financial freedom. Recognize hesitation and fear as a roadblock in your path. Then destroy it and know that to have more than what you have now, you have to start doing something you are not yet doing.

Both here on this blog and through the course of the 21st Century Academy we talk about many keys to financial success. Today the key that we are talking about is consistency—consistency in attitude and in action.

Building The Habit Of Financial Success

How often have you read something, maybe something Jamie McIntyre wrote, or maybe a portion of his book or a course from his wealth education program, and come away so totally motivated and energized that you felt like you could conquer the world? And then how often did you find yourself back into a state of frustration, financial stress, and helplessness just hours later?

What do you think that relapse did for your motivation? What did it do for you over the course of your journey to creating wealth?

At the very least it caused you to stagnate until you achieved that state again. That’s the neutral effect. A worse result would be that it put you back at square one, to where you were before you felt that motivation. And worse still, it may have caused you to lose ground to the point that you are starting below where you were in the beginning. Wherever it took you, no progress was made.

Progress Leads To Success

One thing we know for sure. Without progress, there is no success. If you are constantly losing the ground you’ve made up, or at the very least knowing no forward movement, then you are not progressing towards success and wealth.

To make that progress you have to find a way to overcome the neutral and negative impacts that daily life might take. You have to find ways to consistently move forward, even if it is a little bit at a time. Building wealth, building the wealthy mindset, and building positivity has to be something that is ever-present. Your central task needs to be building that consistent lifestyle so that you are not constantly fighting to get back to where you started from, but are moving on to more.

Before you are wealthy finding the time to commit to a wealth creation education and to doing what it takes become wealthy—to taking action ands steps towards financial prosperity—is hard. This I know. You already have real financial needs and pressures. You already have multiple demands on your time, probably more than you can even attend to. So adding one more thing to the fray is almost out of the question.

Nevertheless, finding time to attend to your own financial future, to your own personal financial freedom and security, is the only way you will ever become rich, enjoy a freer life, and build wealth in a way that will be more sustaining while demanding less from you. You know the only way to riches is to put more into your day. I don’t blame you for hesitating, but facts are facts. Let’s explore some ways that we can do that, then.

Do What You Love

It’s an undisputed fact. When you enjoy what you do, you succeed more. This applies to building wealth, too. Jamie McIntyre is the first to tell you that there are more ways to make money than one. So the trick for you is to find the strategies that are of most interest to you. Figure out what type of investment and wealth creation interests you the most—is it real estate? The share markets? Insurances?

Whatever it is that piques your interest, there is a way to apply it to your wealth strategy. The fist thing to do, then, is learn about a number of strategies (and through the 21st Century Academy you’ll learn at least 8 to be used alone or in combination), and then do a little self-evaluation. Determine

• What your personal interests are—hobbies, career, recreations…

• What aspects of a strategy or strategy might capture that interest—in other words, can you find something within a wealth-building strategy that will allow you to capitalize on your interests?

• What interests or skills you have been wanting to learn more about or pursue—this is your chance to marry multiple opportunities and interests

Money-making does not have to be a sport of little-interest. It shouldn’t be. This journey should be exciting to you. You should be energized by the possibilities and the freedom to finally do something you like. Figure out how you can achieve financial prosperity while you learn to get rich (not quick, necessarily, but sustainably), and when you do, you’ll see that it’s easier than you think to find the time to develop your financial profile.

In a lot of ways building wealth requires you to first knock down the walls that have become an integral part of you. That is, to knock down the walls that have become barriers to you so that there is room for you to build a stronger foundation and overall structure.

Every one of us has something that impedes our financial success. Every one of us has things in our life—both psychological and more real, tangible barriers—that get in our way. These are things that we all have to overcome and move past, replacing the old with the new and the better.

First Step – Self Evaluation

The first step to doing this is to figure out what those barriers are. These could be very elusive things that we do not even know about ourselves—thoughts and attitudes that are ingrained in our psyche; subconscious attitudes (such as what we talked about when we discussed the financial subconscious). As Jamie McIntyre tells us these are very much individual thoughts, attitudes, and barriers, but there are several that are common amongst all people and so we can learn something about ourselves by learning from others like Jamie and other people pursuing financial prosperity.

There is very minimal success without first understanding that these hang-ups do exist and what they are. These barriers have a way of coming back to haunt you so recognizing them and working to overcome them is essential to your financial future.

Persistence Is Progress

The way to overcome these barriers is related to what the barriers are. For a great many of them rewiring your subconscious and your mindset and attitude is necessary. Moving through a wealth development program removes a lot of these barriers because so many are intertwined and inter-related. But regardless of what is holding you back know that you can surpass it and break those barriers down. You can overcome anything—physical, psychological, human, or theoretical—and you can be wealthy. With the recognition that there is work to be done and the persistence to see it through, every last barrier to wealth can and will be broken.

The idea that you can basically think yourself to wealth, that you can become rich by developing the right mindset, seems too simple for some to accept as a viable path to financial security. Many will argue that they’ve had wealthy thoughts, so why aren’t they rich yet? Sometimes the answer is that you’re not really thinking about being wealthy, you’re dreaming about it.

The Difference Between Thoughts And Dreams

A thought is defined as “an idea produced by mental activity.”

A dream is defined as “a sequence of mental images” or (in the case of daydreams) “a series of images, usually pleasant…that pass through the mind…” Other definitions of the word dream include “something hoped for” or “idle hope.”

When you read these definitions you can see one stark contrast between the two—one is active and one is not. Thoughts are the result of activity, whereas dreams are mental pictures or hopes that happen in the idle mind.

Jamie McIntyre’s Concept

Many people who cannot accept Jamie McIntyre’s concept that the key to wealth is in mindset fail to see the difference between their thoughts and dreams; they think they are thinking wealthy thoughts, when they are really just idly dreaming about images of wealth.

A dream can become a thought, or can be moved to the conscious thought process where it can become an active thought. Dreams are not bad things but you do need to understand the difference so that you do not convince yourself you are thinking rich when you are only dreaming. Put your effort behind thinking wealthy thoughts and understand the role of your dreams. Then you will be on the real path to financial freedom and making the most of your wealth creation education.
