21st Century Academy

The last few posts have focused on how you start and end your day, and how you use those practices to carry you through, stay motivated to succeed in your wealth education and development, reflect on the good, look forward and appreciate the positive. While you do that, though, it’s important not to forget about the little things.

The Little Things In Wealth Development

When you think about wealth the default is to think large—wealth is about big things; big opportunities, big freedom, big money, big success, living large! That makes it easy to forget about the little things, and easy to discount them as inconsequential in the grand scheme of things.

But big things are always made of smaller pieces; all great things are sums of the whole—of every small and large thing that went into them. Your wealth development and financial prosperity are not just the result of big moves you made, they are also the result of small things and decisions you did and made. The small, simple, life-changing decision to begin Jamie McIntyre’s wealth education course; the many single, small hours spent reading and learning and absorbing his lessons and the motivations of others; multiple passing moments of positivity and appreciation, all accumulated to change your mindset to one of wealth and positivity.

Now knowing this, apply that to all of the ways that you keep yourself motivating, acting, and achieving wealth. Give yourself credit for the fact that you took two minutes to read this blog and stay inspired; make a space on your to-do list for corresponding with other wealth creators; appreciate that you did all the small things that support and allow for the large to happen.

Cumulative Review

Life is a cumulative effort. No small or large task is without worth, or without impact upon you. So be it small or be it large, know that everything you did today was a brick in your building. Understand that and appreciate that, and you’ll find you are a whole lot more positive and productive than you thought you could be—already!

The little things really do matter!  All the best to you and yours as you appreciate both the big and the little things in life this Christmas!  Merry Christmas and heartfelt wishes for a most prosperous New Year from Sean Rasmussen and Universal Wealth Creation.

“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.

I don’t know that I’ve made it clear enough that there are multiple opportunities for people interested in wealth creation with the 21st Century Academy, and that you don’t have to travel to get there.I’m so excited about what Jamie McIntyre has made possible in my life and for my family that I often talk more about my traveling and the many places where I’ve followed Jamie McIntyre to than I have about the other opportunities at the 21st Century Academy. It finally dawned on me that perhaps I was leaving people out of the loop, and I wanted to dedicate a post to mentioning the other ways that you can learn from the 21st Century Academy and Jamie McIntyre.

Study In The Comfort Of Your Own Home

When you are able, I urge you to attend one of Jamie’s 21st Century Academy seminars. He and the other speakers are so informative and inspirational, and the entire experience so charged with the inspiration of success that there’s no comparing anything to it. It’s something you have to experience to understand.

However, that being said, I realize that many of you, especially those of you in other countries like the U.S. and the U.K, cannot travel to some of the locations where the 21st Century Academy presents without great physical, logistical, and financial burdens. Surely some day you’ll be able to overcome the financial limitations on your travels, but even so, maybe you’re just not interested in world travel.

Whether you can’t go or you don’t want to, nothing should stop you from accessing the education only Jamie McIntyre and the 21st Century Academy can give you. Jamie believes this, too, and he’s made it possible through his books and 21st Century Academy Homestudy course to deliver the same crucial financial empowerment and financial education that seminar attendees get.

In fact, though I’m a huge fan of his personal presentations, in many ways the 21st Century Academy Homestudy is more useful, because it is always with you—instantly accessible, and a steady, constant, daily guide to wealth creation and personal self-empowerment.

No matter what path you take to opening doors to financial freedom with Jamie, take it. Enjoy, and know that he’s put just as much into each and every opportunity, and that anyone of them certainly can get you there. On to financial success.
