The Benefits Of A Program Vs Going It Alone

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Using a program vs going it aloneIf you read the last post you probably realize by now that the 21st Century Academy is not the only place where you can learn about wealth creation and how to change your financial future. But there are definite, undeniable advantages to using a program like Jamie McIntyre’s, as anyone who has ever tried to go it alone will readily tell you.

The Benefits Of Organized Financial Education

The information is out there, albeit widespread. So why is it better that you spend the money on a program like this instead of trying to discover the path to sustainable wealth on your own? There are many reasons, actually.

• Organized financial education. The strongest reason is this—organization. What would take you years to study and organize in your spare time is already brought together and laid out for you in understandable, navigable courses.

• Learn from many. This will depend on the course that you choose, but at least in the 21st Century Academy you will get not one expert, but many. The course is actually a collaborative effort, as well as a course that brings the best the field has to offer together in one place

• Support. It is essential to your success that you choose a financial education program that includes an element of support—such as through forums, workshops and seminars, a network of members and participants, access to leaders and educators. You’ll find this invaluable as you go along for those times when you are confused or simply overwhelmed or unmotivated.

• Choices. Financial education programs give you choices. Choices in how to pursue wealth, choices of strategy, choices of investment vehicles. This is important, because as we know, beyond the fundamentals like mindset, wealth creation and investment are not ‘one-size fits all’. Beware, though, as some programs are more limited, offering only one or two investment strategies, not the variety necessary to support various methods.

• Live better faster. Save time learning, save time reaching your financial goals. There is a lot of information out there, but it would take you years probably to go through it all on your own. Do yourself a favor and take a shortcut to success by taking advantage of a quality, reliable wealth empowerment program.

Your Take On The Matter

Tell me now; what’s your take on this? Can you add to the list above? Or can you offer a word or two of advice for those just starting out? What do you see as the advantages of coming together with a group or program as opposed to striking out on your own?

Insights Into Your Subconscious Money-Mind

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

An insight into your SubconsciousToday we’ll be using the list from the last post to complete the exercise designed by Jamie McIntyre, offered through the 21st Century Academy, to rewire the way your subconscious mind views money. We’re going to take a look at the most limiting beliefs you hold towards money and use them to answer some questions and create a plan of action.

Answer Me This

Answer yourself this—what I think doesn’t matter. This is all about how your mind twists money into negativity and prevents you from being a financial success.

The next step is to take that list and just answer a few questions, again provided by Jamie McIntyre. They are:

1. What are my most limiting beliefs about having absolute financial abundance?

2. What specific amount of money represents financial abundance to me?

3. What will I do today toward developing a financial plan?

4. What did I learn today that I can use to make progress?

5. What financial terms and aspects of personal finance do I not currently understand?

6. Why am I committed to follow through?

7. Give one or two situations from the past when you pulled through despite difficulty.

Start Moving Forward

I like this exercise because is gives you valuable insight into your subconscious mind, making you aware of how you are hindering your own wealth creation without even knowing it. I also like it because it gives you small steps you can take today even without the complete benefit of the 21st Century Academy to start moving forward. Additionally, those actions are small enough to be implemented without interfering with anything else in your life.

I hope this exercise provides the insight and enough action that you need to start enjoying success with money today. I wish you all the best and hope to see you back here soon so that I can help you learn to go further and do even more!

How Do You Fix A Poor Financial Attitude?

Thursday, May 29th, 2008

Hopefully you’ve had time to come to terms with the fact that financial negativity is a fact of life, and that you need a change. So let’s take a short look at how Jamie McIntyre would help you improve that negative attitude, so that then we can get on to the better things in life—succeeding in wealth creation to live the life you want!

Deep Roots

As mentioned in the earlier post, your negativity towards money has very deep-seeded roots in your mind and subconscious. So deeply seeded that there is a very good possibility [probability] that you haven’t even realized you harbor negative feelings towards money, and/or that those negative feelings are prohibiting you from building wealth.

Even though there are aspects of negativity, or instances of negativity towards money that you can probably recall and point to, there are other, more harmful subconscious attitudes that you might not be aware of. These are harder to target because it’s not just a matter of stopping yourself from saying something or thinking something that is counterproductive to wealth creation. It’s about changing those very attitudes that you cannot control.

Rewiring The Subconscious Mind

One of the most powerful and life-changing lessons that Jamie McIntyre teaches through the 21st Century Academy is how to change the subconscious mind so that you can make room for money and success in your life. If this was the only thing Jamie taught you, then you would already have an essential tool that would make a huge difference in your life.

Rewiring the subconscious financial attitude is a process of revealing your true feelings towards money, and then taking steps to correct them. While this is a truly revealing process, and can sometimes elicit some mental anguish, it’s not a difficult task; that is to say, it does not require any special skill or even money. It only requires you to spend time in reflection, and then take actions to replace the bad with the good.

In future posts, we’ll start to do just that. Come back next time and we’ll start talking about some of the ways to rewire your financial subconscious and free you from those attitudes that hold you back—the ones you can’t even see.
