Put Your Mind To Profitable Use. Whether you will succeed or fail, whether you will be poor or rich, the starting point is your mind. You cannot progress faster than your level of inner transformation. God knows that you would be destroyed if He blesses you ahead of what your mental and intellectual capacity can contain.
That is the theme of the message this week from my mentor. Read his rule 4 thoughtfully and you’ll be blessed. Ensure you also read my suggestions on how we can work together in 2013:
Wealth starts from your mind
I met my mentor under the mango tree and after chatting for a few minutes, we decided to go to his study. I was surprised by the state of the study. The whole floor was littered with books while the shelves were almost empty. On enquiry, my mentor told me he was clearing the place for his new arrivals while the books on the floor were to be moved into his other offices, and given to friends who could find them useful.
He repeated what he told me earlier but in a different form: “As I told you the other time, I always update my knowledge because the present challenges cannot be solved by the knowledge I accumulated yesterday. Do you know, for instance, that long before the Stock market started to run into challenges, I had already moved out virtually all my money? Robert Kiyosaki, the author of Rich Dad Poor Dad, had already predicted it and he indicated how it, usually, would happen and once I saw the signals I decided to take a decision. That is why I say if you must be successful, you must constantly update your knowledge. Anybody could have picked the signs of meltdown in the Capital market, especially with what was going in respect of the prices of bank shares.
“There were few inconsistencies in the asset declaration by some of the banks and some of the prices of their stocks had no relationship with their real worth. A knowledgeable investor would have known that the party would not continue forever.”
That was just by the way. My discussion with my mentor that Sunday was on the role of your belief system in your wealth status. My mentor started this way: “I have said this several times and everywhere I had been asked to speak, wealth is a product of your belief system. It is your dominant belief that would eventually determine your wealth status. And it is a choice. All of us make choices about our wealth status all the time with what we allow to dominate our thoughts. It is a choice really. You can choose to be poor by what you believe and you can choose to be wealthy also by what you believe.
There are two choices really: you can either choose to be a failure or choose to be successful. Either would be yours. This is the way it works. Assuming you choose to be a failure, it is always available. You don’t need to worry about reading, about networking with successful people. An individual who has chosen failure as a path won’t do what you are doing chasing successful people all over the place to learn from them. In fact, he does not need any adventure, he could just sit down in the village, enjoy everyday as it comes, and I tell you failure would overtake him. He doesn’t need to struggle to for anything.
On the other hand, if you decide you want to be successful, that is where the problem starts because while failure is available to anybody who wants it, success is usually far away and it has to be pursued. Your mindset must change first because real wealth actually starts from your mind. It is almost impossible for wealth to be created by a mind that is not transformed. Your mind must be expanded to accommodate the fact that you really desire to create wealth”.
We both agreed to stop there. We walked around the compound for some few minutes talking on other issues. He bade me bye at his exit gate and I sped off in my car, happy that I had picked something valuable during that encounter.
I can’t wait to catch up with you next week with my next lesson with my billionaire friend. Please ensure that you are moneywise throughout the week because you are blessed and highly favoured.
Best things always.
You Can Make 2013 Your Best Year Ever!
Over the last 3 months, I have been doing a lot of re-organising and my team and I have developed new strategies to help YOU have a better, richer and fuller life in 2013 and beyond.
But I have discovered a problem. It is this: I have worked with so many people who have failed to implement the strategies and ideas I have shared in most of my platforms.
A few have gone beyond merely reading, to consistent application of some of the principles I have shared in the past and the results have been great. The testimonies are pouring in and I want to do more. I have, therefore, decided to cut off the slackers and work with only people who want to move forward.
As you can guess, I receive hundreds of emails every day but there is no way I can attend to all of them— but I still want to be able to attend to those who are truly serious.
More than that, on my last birthday (Monday 4th March), I decided to just stay somewhere to reflect on the journey. It occurred to me that God has been very kind to me. Even though I have made many mistakes, I have also learnt some incredible lessons that have become invaluable to me.
One of the things I also did was to assemble (in my electronic files) all the materials that have helped me get this far and I want to give out most of them FREE, especially to those who have been loyal fans. The documents include a variety of subjects including:
•Time management
•Brand to cash conversion techniques
•Editing and writing skills
•Information marketing products creation techniques
•…and a lot more!
I will not only give them out free, I also intend to show those who are lucky to get them how to apply the materials to their business, career and lives. I want to share the information with only the people who want to change their lives and trust me to provide the information that can make it possible for them.
If you are ready to change your life and work with me, simply go to this web address: (http://tinyurl.com/dy9mn6t) and follow the instructions there. You will be glad you did!
