Step 2 - Without a Vision People Shall Perish

I heard the other day that -

But, by getting to this stage you have proven that you are not one of those people. So I want to congratulate you on this! You are already demonstrating one key trait of the people who attain great wealth. - “Persistence!” - and the ability to stick with something “Until” you get the desired results.

And before I give you the exercise for this week, I want to remind you to check if you have any - what if down? - questions before doing it. That will be evidence of a Lack belief that is trying to keep you where you are.

So what could you do right now to be in a mindset of….

What If Up?

What if the exercise this week really does make a big difference and starts to set a new course in my life? What if by taking action every week and following this program all the way I get to live the life I have always been dreaming of?

Now that you are ready I wanted to tell you about a very powerful quote from Mark Twain, that I have repeated at all of my seminars for the last 4 years, and I really found it to be very true.

“I Can Show Any Man How To Get What He Wants! I Just Can’t Find A Man Who Knows What He Wants!” Mark Twain

That is why I wanted this exercise to start your new habit of knowing what you want. Then later in the program I can give you the steps to get it.

I remember when I lost what I thought was my dream at the age of 23. This happened because I hadn’t prepared myself to handle the wealth when it arrived!

As a result, I lost everything that had taken 7 years to create, and had to give up my life in California hanging out with Movie Stars, Pop Stars and Supermodels, had my home repossessed, and ended up moving back to Ireland in the Winter, with no money, no income and lived in an old abandoned Coast Guard station.

For the next nine months I didn’t have any dreams of the future. I just had thoughts about how I messed up my one chance and how I could get through each day. After trying so hard last time, I really didn’t care about stupid dreams anymore. It wasn’t until I was down to my last €50 and was running out of food that suddenly I knew I had to figure something out, and I had to do it fast!

So I pulled out some books and quickly looked through the autobiographies of Richard Branson, Andrew Carnegie, Walt Disney, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs and found out that all of them were Visionaries. The first skill they had was the ability to craft a huge vision of their life which gave them the motivation needed to do whatever it took to make it into a reality.

Despite my frustrations and feeling of defeat, I worked over the next few months at becoming a visionary and having the ability to know what I want in every area of my life.

…and this is still the first thing I notice with all of my friends who have created multi million Euro business and real estate empires. They are always building visions of every part of their life and business. My Rich friends always have a notepad and some pens ready to create their vision in more depth and…they have reminders of their visions all around them.

When I started to do this process again it felt like ever getting a warm bed and being able to walk into the supermarket and buy whatever I wanted was a huge stretch. But because I took the time to really develop this skill I have now moved into a life that is much better in every way than I ever put on any of my dream boards and goal lists.

As we go deeper into the programme we will have exercises that really help to create huge visions and give you the tools to make them into reality.

1. Begin by changing your phone home screen to something you want in the future that is very prosperous, such as the car, home, vacation, watch, dress, shoes etc.
2. Change all of your computer screen savers and desktop pictures to something very prosperous that you want in the future.
3. Create a photo album on your computer with at least 10 pictures (and as many as you want) of things you want to create in your life and experience. Pictures of people dancing, partying on the beach, any material items, helicopter, yacht, people you want to meet and any skills you want to build. Then get into the habit of looking through this album when you have some relax time. If you can add it to your phones photo album then do that. (iPhones and Androids can do this easily).
4. Make at least 1 Vision board to put in your home. Ideally make several to keep in locations where you spend a lot of time such as the office, bedroom and kitchen. To make a vision board it may be ideal to use a large cork board if you have one or can get one easily. If not, then get on large sheet of paper 1meter x 1meter. Or using printer paper and stick 6 or 8 sheets together.

Then cut pictures out of magazines or print them from Google or Yahoo Images and stick them on. It is useful to have something for Health (fit body picture, people smiling and healthy food), Money, Gold, Silver, Travel, People to meet, Skills to build. Relationship with partner and children, Home, Car, and anything that reminds you of something you would like to Contribute to the world.

This exercise can seem simple and fun. It is! …and it is very powerful to start your mind focusing on new higher level and better quality of life. Pretty much everyone who has been in self-development for any length of time has heard about doing this, but very few of those people have actually done it!

Action is the key to improvement!

And if you’re one of the people who can’t wait for tougher challenges then be sure that they are on the way. Each week will get progressively more advanced and always fun :)

Thank you for choosing to create your prosperous life with Wealth-Club Romania! Have a great week! David

The Magic 51%

What percentage of the day do you think that most people think about prosperity?

What percentage of the day do you think that most people think about scarcity?

I remember one specific day which I woke up extremely frustrated about how my life was. When I opened my eyes the first thing I saw was the bare and dull walls of my tiny bedroom. I walked out of my room into the bathroom which I could barely fit into as it was so small, the paint was peeling off the roof as there was no window to let the steam out. Then went into my kitchen/living area and just looking around made me feel defeated.

What frustrated me was that I felt like I was doing everything the prosperity books had been telling me to do but I was still living a life that I hated. It was getting to the point I was ready to give up on it all and just accept that I was not supposed to live an abundant fulfilling life.

When I went out into my car, I started the engine and the CD player started automatically and it was playing an audio series I had just purchased by Randy Gage, (author of “Why you are dumb, sick and Broke and how to get Smart, Healthy and Rich!”).

He started talking about this magic 51%. That when you finally get your daily life to be focused on prosperity 51% that will be the point when you whole life turns around. At that time I thought I was actually thinking about prosperity 80% of my day so he must be talking complete garbage.

Then he said… “start really examining your thoughts for the rest of the day and notice how many times you feel prosperous and think about how much abundance you have, how often you see prosperous images around you, how many thoughts are about moving forward towards a better life”.

So I accepted the challenge…

First thing I noticed was that the area I was driving around was all old run down government housing built with old red bricks and paintings of men with guns on the side of them all.

When I pulled into the petrol station to fill up the car, a young man in a nice suit and a new BMW pulled up beside me. I remember looking across and feeling embarrassed and ashamed of my old run down car.

When I went to the bank to get some cash out I remember noticing all the nasty smells coming from the people around me who were sweaty, drunk and had been smoking. While standing in the line all that was running through my head was how frustrating it was having to stand here and wait to take out £20.

This went on all day just noticing that everything I was looking at was poverty!

The houses I saw, the clothes of the people, how they spoke, the news that was on in the car and shops, people complaining about problems beside me while I was waiting for lunch and all the nasty thoughts I was having about it all…

After the final analysis I realized that I had only been thinking prosperity for about 10-15% of the day. All the rest was filled with scarcity words, pictures and feelings.

At this point I said, this has to change. Now!

I didn’t care what it was going to take; I was going to get over that magic 51% no matter what!

First thing I did was to turn off the Radio and get rid of my TV. Then I put the prosperity Audio programmes I had onto my phone and started to listen to them all day when I was not talking to someone. I realized that

if I didn’t have enough prosperity thoughts of my own I could borrow those from other people.

Then I started to make Vision boards. Lots and lots of them. I actually covered my whole apartment with the vision boards. I put them in front of my desk when I was working, I put them beside the cooker so I could see them when chopping vegetables, I put one in front of the Ironing Board.

I even put one on the ceiling above my bed so that it was the last thing I saw before going to sleep and the first thing I saw after waking up. That one actually fell on my head many nights and I took that as a sign that my prosperity was coming at me so fast that nothing could stop it. It was nice to be woken up by my dream life… :)

All day long when I was at home I only saw Ferraris, Bentleys, Million Euro Mansions, Nice Suits, World Travel, Expensive watches and all other wonderful luxury items that made me feel great when I looked at them. I would even walk from room to room holding a board in front of me because I was committed to getting over that 51%.

Then instead of going home after work, I would go to the Radisson or Hilton and just sit in the Lobby and have a cup of tea for hours until the bar closed. It was amazing how much that started to shift my belief that things were changing. Just watching all the wealthy business people coming in and out in their nice cars, and I now started to feel a part of that.

As I stayed over the 51% focus on prosperity for a few weeks, things started to change. Slowly at first, but then I started getting new ideas about how to increase my income.

Every month after that point my income increased. It went from monthly income of €500 slowly over the next few months to €1000 then quickly from €1000 to €2000 to €4000 to €8000+ faster and faster.

In the beginning stages it was a lot of effort to keep my thoughts and the things I saw in my life focused on prosperity over 51% of the time. But as my income increased it became natural.

All of the meetings I now have are in Luxury 5* Golf Clubs and Hotels, I get to travel everywhere in Beautiful Luxury cars, live in a home better than what I had on my vision board at the time. All the people I work with including my friends talk only about prosperity and moving forward.

So it is naturally over 51% every day now with no effort required.

This is one of the Reasons why it is so much easier for the Rich to keep getting Richer. Because there comes a point when 80-95% of your life is focused on prosperity and money is drawn rapidly to people who live like that.

So I would ask you to be aware of your thoughts and feelings and how often you see and think about prosperity and work towards getting to the Magic Number! 51%.

Have a Great Weekend!

Best Wishes,

David
