Rich Beyond Words

I’ve moved into a new head space .

Years ago when I was feeling as blue as can be  – I don’t mean that in a pornagraphic way, I found a website called The Science of Getting Rich Networks. This was a couple of weeks before The Secret surfaced and took over the Law of Attraction scenario.

At that stage of my life things were looking pretty rough for me. I had moved to another country. (Yip I now know for sure that you take yourself with you.) I had no contacts and found myself in a deep hole. I was in a constant state of lack, in other words, not having enough of anything.  (Or so I thought.)

I downloaded The Science of Getting Rich and promptly left it to gather cyberdust on my computer. Ever done that?

Anyways after falling even deeper into my hole I remembered that book. I blew off the cyberdust and began to read.

I was overwhelmed with relief when I read those Scienceog Getting Rich words. This wasn’t about SEO, Blogging, Adsense, Internet Marketing,  MLM or anything like that. It was all about attaining a prosperous mindset. It was good but it wasn’t so easy to implement- I mean years of doing what I’d been doing made it down right hard to believe that I can become a genuise or rich.

But wait a minute – my beady eye spotted The Practical Genuises Course at a price which was so affordable I couldn’t resist. And by affordable I mean choosing what you want to pay! Where in the world do you get such an offer? At auctions? Nah, somebody can outbid you and then you ain’t got the goods.

The Practiacl Genuises Course opened my mind to a whole lot of new possibilities. And my life has changed some. New opportunities surfaced for which I’ll admit the internet has been largely responsible.

In the practical geniuses course you get a whole lot of interesting scripts and life labs. Life lab being an apt name.

The thing is that these life labs are life changing – you realise that there is another way of viewing the world.

With this new vision and new thinking comes success.

Why not try it out for yourself?

Go to the The Science of Getting Rich Networks, receive your free book and enroll for the Course.

It’s worth every penny and then some!

Having a dream, in my not so humble opinion is necessary. For if we don’t have a dream then we have got nothing.

Since childhood I felt like I was in a dream. This obviously caused me some problems, especially in school.

I just couldn’t take the whole concept of life so seriously. I thought I was here to have fun and not be reprimanded about facing up to reality. Why were grown ups always so serious? What was wrong with my reality anyway?

So it’s no wonder we have difficulty keeping up with the Jones’s when in our hearts it’s not even what we are yearning for. Seriously I’ve never yearned to have my bank manager’s job. Luckily I’ve never been bothered by the Jones’s, but this doesn’t mean I haven’t had my share of envy, jealousy and general bad vibes which is another chapter. As much as I like my bank manager – she’s a friendly person and always has a smile for me – I know I would hate sitting in that office all day in that uncomfortable designer wear and those heels. I just love my flip flops and cotton wraps even though I can afford larney shoes and gear. It’s just not me.

Ever since I can remember it was my dream to be free of trapments (well that’s what they are for me). I never saw myself slogging in a office or doing some job to for a living. I’ll admit it caused me difficulty at times. Many times I’ve been without funds because I wouldn’t “work”. I was reprimanded by my parents for not having something safe and secure.  I ask you what is safety and security? Going off to prison so you can earn a living? No thanks.

Contrary to what other parents did – opt in to the “secure world” I became even more determined to live my dream when my twin girls were born.  The minute I held those babes in my single mom ‘s arms I  knew that I had to be an example. And that example was not one of  giving in to a system which tells you to “get real and get a job.” Besides I wanted to spend time with them and not give them to people whose beliefs collided with mine.

In a nutshell:

• Be true to yourself.
• Acknowledge the things that turn you on (if they’re bloody and dirty, go get help).
• Make clear pictures in your mind with you playing the lead role.
• Watch what you eat – huh?
  Seriously food affects our body like nothing else, including emotions, feelings, blood cells and of course health. The purer your body the clearer your dream becomes. No joke. That clarity enables you to see what path you have to take to get to your dream.
• Get a coach – no I don’t mean take the bus – I mean a real coach, somebody to help you focus. Start off with somebody like Rebecca Fine from the Science of Getting Rich Networks who offers a great course called The Practical Genuises Course. It comes with step by step instructions and you choose what to pay.
• Say to yourself I am living my dream – even if you think it’s stupid.  Wouldn’t you regret it, if  saying something to yourself prevented you from living your dream?
• Take action in the direction of your dream – no use just dreaming about it- after all you want to start living your dream, so action is of utmost importance. The action part tells the dream that you’re ready for it.
• Wasting time kills dreams – each second spent constructively gets you closer to your dream.
• Keep on keeping on.

Thanks for reading and hey, feedback and questions are much appreciated.

In the late 1800s, an Italian sociologist and engineer, Vilfredo Pareto, became known for his controversial theory that alleged the superiority of the “elite” class. That unfortunate (and now discredited) theory was used to shore up the ideology of fascism which brought misery to millions.

But he was also known for applying mathematical principles in the realms of sociology and economics, and while his now-refuted “law” of the “trivial many” and the “significant few” holds no meaning for us in terms of the value of human beings, at least one of Pareto’s ideas does still hold water in other areas.

You may know “The Pareto Principle” by its more familiar name, “the 80/20 Rule.”

Simply put, the 80/20 Rule — as we use it today — says that 80% of your return will come from 20% of your effort. For example, in business this can mean that 80% of your income derives from 20% of your customer base. Or that 80% of your revenue can be traced to just 20% of your sales force.

Think about all the ways the 80/20 Rule applies: About 80% of all small businesses fail within their first couple of years, so you could say that 80% of all small business SUCCESS comes from 20% of all new small businesses. (And the subject of WHY so many fail is something we’ll cover in the near future. My view is that most fail before they even begin, lacking knowledge and understanding of the principles we’ve discovered in The Science of Getting Rich.)

How about in your own job or business — or in other areas of your life? Can you see that 80% of the results come from 20% of your input? I don’t know if Wallace Wattles (the author of the amazing forgotten 1910 classic, The Science of Getting Rich) had ever heard of Pareto, but let’s take a look at how the 80/20 Rule might be useful in implementing Mr. Wattles’ notion of “Efficient Action.” First, though, some more fascinating 80/20 facts.

Back in the 1960s, thousands of insurance salespeople for Metropolitan Life, a big company here in the U.S., took part in a study that demonstrated this rule. The study found that, yes, 20% of the agents produced 80% of all sales.

But they took the study a step further and scrutinized that top 20%. And guess what? The rule held there, too. In fact, the top 20% of THAT top 20% of all salespeople were making 32 times as much as the average of the sales reps in the bottom 80%!

And what do you think they found out about the top 20% of that group making 32 times the average?

The people in THAT top 20% were making 54 times more than the people in the bottom 80%!

What was it that made the difference? It wasn’t that this cream of the crop was 54 times smarter or worked that much harder. And they obviously didn’t have 54 times as much education or experience.

What made the difference was that the people reaping the biggest rewards had learned to pay attention and keep track of WHAT WORKED and made them effective — and what didn’t. They made it a point to do more of the effective things and get rid of the time-, energy-, and resource-wasters.

They were spending 80% of their time on the 20% of their work that produced the biggest results!

Most of them had probably never heard of Mr. Wattles or his work, but they were, nonetheless, practicing Efficient Action regularly. Daily. All the time.

Here’s the thing: If you’d prefer to find yourself in the top 20% (and, yes, you can do that without sinking into competitive mind), take a good, close look at how you spend your time and energy. Without a doubt you’ll find that the most productive, effective, profitable activities ARE probably getting only about 20% of your attention. Which means that you’re spending 80% of your resources on the things that are unproductive, ineffective, and unprofitable.

And by “time” I mean not only the time you spend actually working at your income-producing activities but the time you spend on thinking and acting in the certain way: holding to your clear vision with faith, purpose, and gratitude. Let’s take a quick look at just a couple of the high points in “Efficient Action” — Chapter 12 in The Science of Getting Rich — and see where we stack up.

• Are you “more than filling” your present place — or are you doing only enough to get by? It’s been said that many bosses pay their employees just enough to keep them from quitting and that many employees work just enough to keep from getting fired. If you find yourself in either of those positions, you are NOT ready to rise to a higher level of reward.”Giving more in use value than you take from others in cash value” applies to employees selling their services to their companies as well as to those selling goods or services to customers.
• Are you making the mistake of trying to do too much? These days, being way too busy is almost a badge of honor, but Mr. Wattles warns: “You are not to overwork or to rush blindly into your business in the effort to do the greatest possible number of things in the shortest possible time. … The more things you do, the worse for you, if all your acts are inefficient ones.”
• Are you plagued by the dream-killer, procrastination? “If there is something that may be done today and you do not do it, you have failed insofar as that thing is concerned. And the consequences may be more disastrous than you imagine.”
• Are you neglecting things that may SEEM small and unimportant? “You cannot foresee the results of even the most trivial act. … Your neglect or failure to do some small thing may cause a long delay in getting you what you want.”
• Are your actions strong or weak? Mr. Wattles notes that “when every one is strong, you are acting in the certain way which will make you rich. Every act can be made strong and efficient by holding your vision while you are doing it and by putting the whole power of your faith and purpose into it.”

Over the next 24 hours, why not make it a point to pay attention to where your time goes … how you spend your energy … where you focus your thinking, feelings, and action … and how you notice and respond to the opportunities presented? Make notes throughout the day, keep track, and at the end of the day, see for yourself just how true the 80/20 Rule is — at work, at home, everywhere.

Now, my friend, here’s to your “Totally TOP Twenty Percent” day today and LOTS more of them to come!

One day a father and his rich family took his young son on a trip to the country with the firm purpose to show him how poor people can be. They spent a day and a night in the farm of a very poor family. When they got back from their trip the father asked his son, “How was the trip?”

“Very good, Dad!”

“Did you see how poor people can be?” the father asked.

“Yeah!”

“And what did you learn?”

The son answered, “I saw that we have a dog at home, and they have four. We have a pool that reaches to the middle of the garden, they have a creek that has no end. We have imported lamps in the garden, they have the stars. Our patio reaches to the front yard, they have a whole horizon.”

When the little boy was finished, his father was speechless.

His son added, “Thanks, Dad, for showing me how poor we are!”

Isn’t it true that it all depends on the way you look at things? If you have love, friends, family, health, good humor and a positive attitude toward life, you’ve got everything!

You can’t buy any of these things. You can have all the material possessions you can imagine, provisions for the future, etc., but if you are poor of spirit, you have nothing!
