21st Century Academy

One of the greatest gifts that a wealth education can give is the power of choice (which is really the gift of personal financial empowerment). Choice is something that Jamie McIntyre provides in many ways through the 21st Century Academy. And once you have the power of choice behind you, you have the ability to start really controlling what happens to your money.

Learning To Enjoy Real Financial Control

To gain real control over your money and wealth creation, you need to understand your position of control. You need to know that ultimately you do have choices and you are in the seat of control.

Unfortunately, many people do not feel that they have financial control at all. They feel that all their power and control has been stripped away from them to the point where they are doing nothing more than working for a pay check in order to pay it out to debts, bills, and everyone else with a hand outstretched. In essence, people feel that the fate of their money is sealed before they even get up and go to work for it. The money is going before it ever comes in.

In reality this is not true. In reality the only person that can give that money away to those entities is you. In reality, you make a choice every time you decide to pay that bill. At present that may feel like a very unempowered choice, but with help you can gain the confidence and power to change all that.

Get Educated, Get Empowered

When you get educated, when you embark on a wealth creation education, you take the first steps to empowering yourself financially and learning to make the choices that really put you in control. Just understanding that you have choices, and you have control is powerful. Now imagine how more powerful a thought that could be coupled with some real, executable knowledge. Give yourself the gift of power and choice. Know you control your money and learn how else you can take control.

If there is one thing you will learn from Jamie McIntyre it is that you must empower yourself in order to change and build wealth. The first step and one of the most crucial in creating wealth is to empower yourself and allow yourself the power of control over money in every way. Let’s explore this idea a bit…

What Is Financial Empowerment?

There are many ways that you might describe financial empowerment. When it comes down to it, though, to be empowered financially is to have choice and control. It is to be the master of your financial and emotional mind, and thus your fate.

By definition empowerment means “to give authority or power”; it also means to “make more confident or assertive.” Given these definitions, it is easy to see how one could benefit from becoming financially empowered. When you empower yourself financially, you gain control over how your money is spent or invested, where it goes and what it does for you. You build confidence in yourself and make you better at everything you do.

How Can You Get Financially Empowered?

You can start today by just allowing yourself the luxury of financial control. That is one step in the right direction. But true empowerment means having control over your financial life in every small and large way. There is more to empowering yourself for wealth than just giving yourself permission to succeed. To get through the day to day and build your confidence and power, you’ll need some guidance.

This is the point where a wealth creation education, either formal through a program like the 21st Century Academy or informal such as in books, etc., comes in.

Acknowledging the fact that you deserve to be empowered and build wealth is the first step. Achieving the necessary level of empowerment happens over time with education and exposure. Take a step now to build your power and your wealth.

The power of attraction is a simple principle, but it can be hard for people to find real ways to put it into action. This can be especially hard if you come to exploring wealth creation and programs like the 21st Century Academy out of need. It’s easier to start stockpiling abundance and attracting more positivity and success if you start small, though. Let’s take a look at the ways that other people, including myself, Jamie McIntyre, and scores of others, have managed to find good things to think about and live even when living with need and financial stress.

Abundance Starts With The Little Things

One of the reasons that people fail to attract more good and abundance in life is that they fail to see that every life is already abundant. Your life may not be financially abundant, and you may still have a very real and strong need for more money in your life, but I promise that upon further evaluation you can find something to be positive about. And since we know one positive thought or act will attract another, we can deduce that one positive thought or movement is all it will take to draw another.

Take a look at your life today—right now. Find one thing that is valuable in your life. It can be something as simple as your ability to access this blog, and so the information that leads to wealth and building a life of financial freedom. Grasp that firmly and focus on it. And then look around for more. Find two things, then three—as many as you can. If you want to, make a list that you can refer back to when you need a shot of abundance in your life.

Start looking at your life as being blessed with wealth. Stockpile that abundance and build upon it. Know that you already have what it takes to start on a road to riches—you have the power of attraction, and something good in your life with which you can attract more good and more wealth. You don’t need anything else to start living and attracting wealth. It’s all here now, and all the tools that you need to take it the next step further are here now, too. That’s something worth thinking positively about!

Our recent posts have talked a lot about us being the company and the thoughts that we keep, and about attracting the elements of success to us that we need to succeed and be financially empowered…to build wealth. That power is the Power of Attraction. You’ll find this also by other names, depending on who you are reading and following, as things like the Law of Attraction, or even “The Secret”. It is this law that serves as the basis for the 21st Century Academy in many ways as well.

Attraction And Daily Life

The power of attraction is simple yet effective. To use it, all you really need to understand is that you will attract to you whatever you put out into the world. In other words, if you think positively and abundantly, and live a life of wealth and success, you will draw positive attitudes, thoughts, and people to you; you will draw abundance to you as well.

If you think negative thoughts, focus on the bad in life, on destitution and need, or the inequality in life, you will always draw those things to you; if you live a life of want, you will attract more want—you’ll attract people who also want and need, and you’ll attract more financial stress.

Many people are hesitant to believe that wealth creation can be so simple, but when you look at the lives of various individuals you can see that this is certainly true. If you look at your own life you can see how you attract to you the same things that you think and surround yourself with. Think about the times when you were most down—did it seem you could never get a break and that negativity seemed to follow you in all things? Now think about the times in your life when you felt you were doing well—did it seem more things went your way? That the bad times were limited, and easier to overcome?

You can start building wealth today just by adjusting what you attract to you. Apply the power of attraction to everything in your life—to your thoughts, your fiends and associations, to what you choose to read, learn, and follow. Be more positive and successful and you will be more positive and successful; and you’ll set the stage for easily attracting more of the same as you do.

You are the company you keep, and you are also the thoughts you think. Just as we talked about the company you keep attracting more of the same to you, the same applies to the thoughts that you think.This is the foundation that Jamie McIntyre built the 21st Century Academy on. It is also the foundation that leading self empowerment and wealth authors built their success upon—leaders as far back as Napoleon Hill with Think and Grow Rich.

Positive Thinking For Financial Success

This is very much in relation to the mindset that is so integral to wealth creation, but what I really want to drive home in this post is the power of each and every thought you think on a daily basis. Collectively they are what make up your mindset in combination with your attitude.

This post is also about attracting positive thought. Remember that when we talk about attraction as it applies to financial success, we talk about the like attracting like. When you think positively and think thoughts of wealth and success, you attract more thoughts of positivity and abundance. If you think thoughts of stress, financial want, deprivation or need, you attract more of the same. That can be a hard cycle to break as you work towards building wealth because most people do come into this with a level of need or want. But even those needs can be turned into something positive—the positivity of working towards your goals, the comfort of knowing this need is temporary and that overall you are living well and building wealth.

Starting today, I encourage you to start paying more attention to the thoughts that you think. You will not be free from negativity unless you make a conscious decision to turn your thoughts around. The good news is that once you begin to make that effort the whole thing gets easier. You’ll think more positively, you’ll expect life to be positive, and you’ll expect to succeed. And with every thought, you will attract more positive thinking.
