Is Your Mentor / Business Partner Keeping You Poor?

I wish I was a fly on the wall inside Google’s Corporate Head Quarters, as they must be laughing their heads off. Do a search on Google, Yahoo or MSN and you will find numerous advertisements on how someone is going to make you rich. Google makes millions on these adds and Oh and the best part is that you are going to become Rich with NO effort. Sorry, but that is not the way the business world works. Building financial freedom takes effort, find a mentor and get after it.

Choose your mentor wisely as they will more than likely determine your success. We are all in need of training and being taught. The only difference is what level of training we each need. Your mentor should be continually engaged in finding new technology, new methods and new ideas to maximize your success. This means that they must go outside their current organization and learn from the highly successful. If the system you are looking at is not evolving in nature……..RUN A WAY.

Stay clear of the anyone who tells you that they or their system does everything for you. If they tell you this, then ask them what their success rate is. What percent of the people that join your team succeed and by succeeding you mean they make how much per month? Be ready for the person on the phone to start stuttering and try to evade the question.

Their training system must be one that is constantly evolving and teaching you cutting edge tactics and technologies. This is the only way that you will stay ahead of the competition. This should not worry you as their training and implementation should be fun. Learning something new takes effort but the rewards can be outstanding. If you are currently in an organization and your training system is not very good, talk to your upline and demand they fix this. Without a doubt there are systems that you can become rich through other people but only if you assist them in making their dreams come true.

I learned something about 4 years ago that changed my life forever. Here it is: We are all in our situations because we choose to keep ourselves in that position. After I learned this and decided to change my situation, my wealth exploded. Don’t let the fear of the unknown keep you from achieving a life filled with family and friends. This is much different than working for someone else and having no time for family and friends. The choice is yours…..What will you accept?

The wealthy understand that private education will set their children apart from the masses. They understand that this education is critical to their children’s success in the ever changing world. Global competition requires top education and shifts are occurring across the globe. If you do not act quickly to insure your children’s education, it may be too late. Do you really want to look back and say “I wish I could have or would have been able to offer my children a better education”? The time for action is now.

Your current choices have kept you living in a neighborhood that you wouldn’t live in if you were financially free, nor would you have the same doctor, same dentist, same hair dresser, same clothing store….the list goes on and on. So now that you know this is a choice take action and get out of your RUT. Take action now.

Why do you listen to a family friend, a neighbor or a family member to keep you from achieving your greatness? You must understand that each person has greatness inside of them, but you must feed this greatness in order for it to emerge. This takes action and not words. You will not accomplish your greatness by watching your TV every night. Nor will you achieve your greatness without striving to learn, striving to teach others and / or striving to become a greater person.

Most people are afraid of success so they make excuses on why they do not want to become better. This a natural human response. You must have a cause something that is bigger than you or your personal wants and desires. The easy one is that you have seen over the last 10 years the difference in incomes between the rich and the middle class has widen. If you do not take action to achieve Financial Freedom now, this gap will widen and your children may never have the opportunity to change social classes. This should be enough to motivate you and get you to achieve more.

You will need to decide for yourself if you will break out of your rut and begin the journey to build your financial freedom. Many have achieved this great goal and many more will do the same. The question you need to ask yourself is, “Why are you not achieving your greatness”? Get your wealth building machine cranking.

The key to your success lies with the mentor you choose. Don’t let this scare you, but instead take action now to achieve financial freedom. Remember this is your choice and no one can do this for you.
