Growing up, I had a friend who always talked about their ambitions! I’m sure many can relate & it is always good to have people in your circle who thrive for more, the problem with this friend was that that every dream was followed with an excuse. For the life of me, I couldn’t understand what was keeping my ambitious friend from reaching his goals!

Then I figured it out, my friend had a Fear of Failure! We all have this fear and too many of us never conquer it. Fear is the killer of dreams! Many of us (like my friend) are on this path and don’t realize that, at the end of this life that we will have more regret than fear.

I love people who dream big because I dream big. I wanted to understand why my fear of failing didn’t hold me back but my friend’s fear did. I eventually was able to create a six-figure income going after what I believed in and that’s when I realized – my need for growth was bigger than my need for comfort. I started looking at other successful people and noticed we all have certain beliefs in common. What are the beliefs we have in common?

We believe that people choose to be comfortable living an uncomfortable life, because of their fear of failing. People who truly desire to succeed choose to be uncomfortable in the moment so they can live a life of comfort in the future – either way, we will be uncomfortable!

 

So…. I’ve been talking a lot about failure but the real question is, how do I overcome failure and the fear of failing? Simple, understand the formula for failing and implement it. Hopefully, after reading this you will have more understanding of how to become successful. Many people listen to themselves but I challenge you to end that today and start talking to yourself. Ask yourself this simple question, Do you know anyone that has become successful without failing? I’ll give you a hint, the answer is NO! Which means, its highly likely that failure is actually a cause to being successful…the very thing so many avoid is the only reason success avoids them.

Thru my own experiences along with the teachings of many other successful people, I have been able to come up with a formula for overcoming fear.

 

  1. Why success takes so long to obtain – The first one is FAIL EARLY! Too many people will make a decision to finally start their dreams & literally do nothing for years just to avoid failure. Start early, the longer you wait to fail – the longer you wait to be successful!
  2. Why giving up to early destroys dreams – This one is huge and where most people quit but FAIL OFTEN! People often quit because they have “tried” but you have to understand – Failure is part of the process! The only real way to fail is to actually QUIT. Don’t quit and just return back to that uncomfortable life! There is no specific number of failures you must encounter before becoming successful which, leads to my final point.
  3. Why looking forward to comfort over growth is a bad idea –You have to FAIL FORWARD! You must understand – success comes from the growth not the results. Failing often means creating better results. You don’t believe you are the type of person to be successful, fail often enough and become the person that is successful.

 

I like to compare success to driving, when you decided to learn to drive was it based on a need to be safe or on a need to get to get somewhere – to move around, to get some things accomplished? Most desire to move around, get to a destination, get some things accomplished…so what did you? You had some teach you, mentor you, guide on driving – you got some hands on experience and maybe even hit some curbs (or worse) but as you kept learning and applying, you became a better driver. Success is the same way – as long as you continue to be guided forward, you will arrive at your destination. Remember you don’t get what you deserve you get what you work toward.

 

Since joining MWR Life (check it out here) I’ve blessed to have mentors guide me along my own path of failure right into a 6 figure income. I realize that the mentor-ship, culture, benefits and opportunity is all I needed to get to my destination. With this formula I’ve been able to obtain success for myself but more importantly mentor others thru their path of failure to reach their final destination – success.

Why so many Americans have no savings

Could you come up with $2,000 in 30 days if you had to? As many as 40 percent of American families can’t, despite the improving economy. Among them is Neal Gabler, who is frequently broke despite his successful career as a writer. As part of a collaboration between The Atlantic and the PBS NewsHour, Judy Woodruff looks at why Gabler and so many other Americans are struggling with savings.

How much of what you would describe as your financial condition is due to decisions that Neal Gabler made, and how much of it is due to outside circumstances beyond your control?

NEAL GABLER: That’s a great question, and I want to take responsibility.

I don’t want to put everything off on these larger financial forces. I chose to become a writer. This is the most financially perilous profession that one can possibly imagine, except possibly being an actor.

I chose to live in New York City because I thought I needed to be close to magazines and publishers that I needed for my writing career. So I did that. And New York is expensive. I chose to have two children. Children are expensive.

I made the choice to send them to expensive colleges, so those were all choices that I made that had serious financial consequences, but, again, those choices were what I call life.

Why is it that we cannot live life and be financially free at the sametime?

If an emergency of $400 came up can you safely pay it?

What about savings? Have you even started to save? 36% of Americans have no savings AT ALL.

 

Now what if i told you that it doesn’t have to be this way? That you can have a nice savings and finally be on the road to financial freedom? What if I also told you that the Federal Government will fund it?

I mean the The 40/40/40 rule of life ! Is obviously not working.

And let’s face it nowadays you spend more time trying to survive than to live so i dare you to Click here and learn how you can create more time and have a financial future.

 

 

The 40/40/40 rule of life!

Greetings, today I would like to talk about the 40/40/40 rule of life.  I’m sure you have heard of it, but you might not know it by this name.  You see the 40/40/40 rule of life is what most Americans live by.  They work 40 hours a week, working for 40 years of their life, and then retire on 40% of what they made.

Most of us have all been taught the same things.  We are to go to school, get good grades so you can get a good college education, and then hope to make good money.  If you have read the Rich Dad Poor Dad books, then you will know that this philosophy is what Robert’s poor dad taught him, which is exactly what most of us were taught.  There is a much better way!  A way we don’t have to life by the 40/40/40 rule.

Let’s just do some math real quick and see how your retirement goal is fairing right now, and see if you on your 40/40/40 schedule?  If you make $100,000 per year, then based on this rule you retire you will live off about $60,000 per year OR $5,000 per month.  Based on the math you would need to have 1 million dollars in savings and getting at least 6% interest.  Are you on Track to have 1 Million dollars saved for retirement?  If your numbers are different you can quickly do the math yourself and see if you are on track for what you need at retirement.

Owning your own business and having a system is a much better way to get to where you want to be.  As I discussed yesterday starting your own business can be extremely risky since 9 out of 10 business fail.  That is why I love the Network Marketing industry so much.  You get access to being a business owner and all the benefits that come with it, without all the risk. Most companies in this industry cost less than $500 to get started, so that is not much risk at all.  The return on investments is out of this world.  Let’s run the same numbers as before and see how being in Network Marketing can change the numbers.  Again we are looking at you living off $5,000 a month that you saved for your entire 40 year working life.  When you join a company they have a system to make sure you are successful, if they don’t you joined the wrong company….smile!  If you will follow your companies system, and do the daily and weekly activities required to make this business work for you, in 3-5 years you could be earning the same $5,000 per month.  I have read tons of books on this subject in the past 11 months and they all say the average person will take between 3 and 5 years to replace their income.

What if you are NOT Average?  At our last company training event one of our speakers said that it took him 8 years to finally figure it out this industry.  That year he finally made his first $100,000, and has since hit the top rank in our company.  Let’s say you are not average and it took you 10 years.  Would you be willing to put in the time to learn how to do this business and be willing to actually do the daily tasks to make it happen even if it took you 10 years to hit $5,000 per month?  Time will continue to pass by so would you rather do something different to change the course of your life?  Remember this is part time work so you can continue working your current job saving up for your 1 million as your plan A.  However, the more you work this business, even part time, if you commit to it and Never Ever Quite, you will soon see that this option will quickly become your Plan A.  I would rather work 10 years at this than 40 years with the same results.
