Step 6 - The Company You’ll Keep Will Define You!
Everywhere we look it appears that there are millions of people all over the world queueing up to get their share of success. They are trying everything possible, reading all the books, listening to the audios, working their assess off. The problem is that they are all lining up at the front door waiting for everyone else to clear out of the way. If only they knew that…
…THERE IS A SNEAKY BACK-DOOR TO CREATING WAREHOUSES FULL OF CASH FASTER THAN A MOUSE STRAPPED TO A ROCKET…
Every time I get to meet with Wealthy People I always like to ask the same question…
“What is the most influential thing you do that helped you create and keep your wealth?”
Time after time the response is pretty much always the same:
“I get around other people who push me to become more of what I am capable of.”
And this always reminds me of a lesson I had heard over and over again from all the great personal development speakers such as Tony Robbins, Brian Tracy, Jim Rohn, Les Brown, Bob Proctor, Napoleon Hill etc.
Our life is the average of the 6 people we spend the most time with!
When I first made the decision that I was going to put an end to my financial struggles and was committed to creating wealth in my life, I started to look at the people I had chosen to spend a lot of time with.
The First thing I did was write down the names of the 6-8 people I spent the most time with now and beside their name I wrote down their income and net worth. (Making the best possible guess)
I know that the first time I did this exercise I had my two student friends with no income, my other friend who was making around £6,000 per year working part time in a shop. And my work colleagues making around £10,000 each per year while I was working for a charity.
It turned out that I was making around £8,000 per year at that time. So I knew that there was a lot of truth to this principle.
This rule works for our quality of health, relationships, wealth, fun, adventure, contribution and all other areas of life. Usually if we total up the income of the 6 people we are with then we will be earning very close to the average (give or take a few thousand).
Exercise #1
:) Try it now… if you want to test it. Write down the names of the 6 people you spend the most time with and make a guess at their income.
It should only take 5 minutes and it will be very revealing. :)
So at that point I decided that I was going to raise my game and get around people who would not accept any more of my excuses for not stepping up.
The first thing I did was put up this quote from Brian Tracy in front of my desk:
“Everything we do in life is to gain the respect of the people we respect or at least not to lose the respect of the people we respect.”
Then I made a list of the people who I would Ideally like to be around and work with.
When I do exercises like this I don’t write out who I want to meet in my current world. I write out who I would meet if I was on a brand new planet that I created and made the rules. Doing it like this makes it infinitely more powerful as it lets our minds access all of our true desires that have been beaten down with years of failure, frustration and external programming.
So I invite you now to join me in doing this…
€ £ $ :) :) :) EXERCISE :) :) :) $ £ €
- Get the feeling of sitting out in the Universe on top of a Star. Then get to work creating a planet as you want it to be. You can be any person you want here, there are no limits. (I would suggest doing this every time you want to find out what your real desires are, self-doubt will keep our real desires locked inside us).
- Write out a list of 6-8 friends that you want to have on your ideal planet.
You will not take any actual people which you know from this planet!!!
It is important to create brand new people. Being too specific blocks off the flow and it is the synchronistic flow that makes the magic happen.
- Write out their monthly income.
- Write out their Net Worth.
- Write out a little bit of the industry they work in (Stocks, Real Estate, Venture Capitalist, Athlete, Musician, Author, Space Travel, TV etc.)
- Write out the personal traits they have.
- Write a brief description of the interaction you have when you are together.
Here is an example of how I did it:
Person 1 - “AAA”
Monthly Net Income - £150,000
Net Worth - £65,000,000
Real Estate Investor
“AAA” is very kind, friendly and very powerful person who does not put up with any crap from anyone. He knows his business better than almost anyone else in the country. He really values his time and knows what he wants and how to get it.
AAA is the type of person who will be totally honest with me and push me harder than I know how to push myself. He has contacts in all the key areas of Real Estate and is willing to help me along the way because he knows that I am stepping up and doing everything I can to reach my true potential.
AAA opens doors for me by making key introductions to other people who can help push my projects forward. We can still have a great laugh when we are together and our main focus is making our businesses grow.
I feel that I deeply respect him and he respects me for my enthusiasm and willingness to do whatever it takes to provide the best possible service for my customers so that we can have a long term lasting relationship.
“I am open and willing to accept this great friendship or an even better one.”
Person 2. BBB Person 3. CCC Person 4. DDD Person 5. EEE Person 6. FFF
Note – It is important to not put a real name to the person… that is why I used AAA… BBB etc.
Just create the essence of the person and their relationship with you. This keeps the door open to hundreds of different ways to meet them without being a scary creep when you meet them. :)
After I did this exercise it took 2 weeks before I had the door open and the process started to get around all the people on my list. Within 4 months I was traveling to a different city every weekend working for the Robert Kiyosaki’s Rich Dad company with many of the Richest people in the country.
There I got to spend time with the people who matched exactly my list and it all happened through lots of chance meetings (it always looks like chance meetings but that is how it always happens). :)
Be open to the magic and say “yes” when the door opens!!!!
When the list is complete start to think where people like this would be. Would they be sitting in your house watching your TV with you??? Or would they be out somewhere? Seminars, Golf Clubs, Top Hotels, Charity Events, Concerts, Operas, Sailing Club, Classic Car Clubs?
Then get to those places and find a way to add value to their lives.
So as always please have lots of fun doing this as it is conditioning your mind to think like the Rich think. The power of creativity is one of the fastest ways to bring in new wealth.

Is The Game of Money Win-Lose or Is It Win-Win?
This is the question that causes a major conflict in most people. We have been trained to think that for one person to get rich then another person must stay poor.
The majority of people really care about helping our friends, family and even strangers have a better life. So the idea of getting Rich while others are forced to stay poor will make many people decide that they don’t want to hurt anyone. Many people, especially those will low self-esteem, decide that they should be the people who stay poor so that there is enough for everyone else.
There was the famous line from the Wall Street movie:
“It’s a Zero Sum game – somebody wins, somebody loses. Money itself isn’t lost or made, it’s simply transferred” Gordon Geko.
This would only be true if you are talking about the government, who just takes money from one person by force, passes it to another and then they squander it.
Unfortunately, Hollywood controls the philosophy of the majority of the planet. The programming is very subtle so people don’t even notice they are being programmed with garbage beliefs that will keep them poor. They just think it is a fun movie.
Most movies in Hollywood are made by Limousine Liberals who make huge amounts of money, love the wealth and at the same time they hate themselves for it.
And they hate anyone else who makes lots of wealth. Because they have never taken the time to think through their philosophy.
Think about this for a moment….
When two people do a trade with each other….why do they both say “thank you”?
If one of them was winning and the other was losing would they both say “thank you”?
…..Of course not.
The person who sells the melon for €2 would rather have the money than the melon because they can grow a melon for 50 cents. Leaving them €1.50 profit.
The person with the €2 would rather have the melon than the money. To pay for the melon they can go to work for 10 minutes doing what they are good at and have enough to pay for it. But to grow the melon themselves would take several days of work, over many months.
By trading with each other they are both winners.
Wealth is not merely transferred as the Movie Wall Street suggests. Newwealth is being produced every day all over the world. More furniture, houses, cars, phones, computers, food, entertainment etc. etc. are being produced every minute of every day.
Wealth is really the products and services we use, not the pieces of paper issued by the government that we use to keep score. The pieces of paper we use in every transaction are just a receipt of wealth that can be used to claimwealth.
The more we produce goods and services, the faster the prices will fall, which makes it easier for the poorest people to get access to all the wealth that the rich enjoy.
Think about mobile phones. When they first came out they were the size of a large brief case, had only one function and cost €2000+. Very few people could afford them.
But as more and more companies started to produce them the prices have fallen so low that even the poorest people in the world can afford them. A basic phone which is much better than the first mobile phones will cost around €20 or maybe even less.
Here is why this is so important to understand….
If we get up every day and think that by us getting Rich we are making people Poor then it makes it very very difficult or impossible to enjoy the process of building wealth. Which will kill any incentive to do it and build a huge level of guilt if we do ever get the money.
However if we get up everyday knowing that by getting Rich we are actually making it easier for everyone else to get Rich, then this makes it exciting, fun and very rewarding to focus on building wealth.
We shift the morality to feel that if we are not getting Richer then we are keeping other people poor. And if we are getting Richer then we are saving people from suffering and making their lives much better.
When we know that everything we are doing in our life is making the world a better place for us and for everyone else then we get excited and love the whole process.
So think about that next time you trade with someone and you both say “thank you”. Know that you have both made each other Richer.
If you want to have your friends and family join you in wealth then we would love for you to send them this link and they can go through the process with you. People who grow together stay together!
Have a great week-end!
