Is It the Quickest Way?

Almost 3 years ago I wrote in this blog about a system taught by my friend and mentor Harv Eker called SPEEDWEALTH. It’s a system designed to show ANYONE who has the true desire, EXACTLY how to create a MILLION DOLLAR BUSINESS in 3 years or less.

In a nutshell, the system is a checklist for the entrepreneur to follow.

After learning this system, I designed my business to follow the checklist that the system called for.

The results speak for themselves. The financial advisory practice I created has grown from the day I opened my business, to the point where I am among the top advisors in the nation in my area of expertise.

While I wanted to prove that the SPEEDWEALTH system worked, I also wanted to improve my entrepreneurial skills.

Why have I focused so much of my recent life to ENTREPRENEURSHIP?

First of all, it’s a passion of mine. I went to undergraduate school to get a degree in BUSINESS. I went to graduate school to get a MASTERS degree in BUSINESS. I got my CPA to understand the numbers and the taxes of business. I grew up in my family business. All of my other family members were in businesses.

Second, it is beyond a shadow of a doubt, the BEST AND FASTEST WAY to reach FINANCIAL FREEDOM.

Think about this for a second……

For every 100 new businesses that open their doors today, approximately 80 percent will fail in the first 3 years. Of the remaining 20 percent, 16 percent will have bought themselves a job, and ONLY 4 PERCENT will be creating wealth!

If you think those odds sound lousy, it’s A THOUSAND TIMES WORSE for the EMPLOYEE who gets paid a salary or by the hour or job.

Unless you are paid on performance or by results, you will struggle with money your entire life.

The problem is, virtually no one is creating FINANCIAL FREEDOM. The overwhelming majority of the public goes to work, gets a paycheck, and stays on the proverbial treadmill their whole lives.

BUT THAT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE YOU!!

I KNOW THIS TO BE A FACT!

HOW DO I KNOW THIS FACT?

BECAUSE SUCCESS IS A LEARNABLE SKILL!

ENTREPRENEURSHIP IS A LEARNABLE SKILL!

YOU CAN LEARN YOUR WAY TO FINANCIAL FREEDOM AS LONG AS YOU ARE READY TO BACK UP YOUR LEARNING WITH ACTION!

Here’s one thing I can promise you for sure…..

If you study and learn the mindset for success I’ve written about for the past 3 years here at this blog….

If you study and learn the money management skills and strategies I’ve written about for the past 3 years here at this blog….

If you study and learn the entrepreneurial skills and strategies that I WILL BE DEDICATED TO TEACHING YOU right here at this blog and on my web site (soon to come)….

You will be ready to take on the world, and WIN!

Financial Freedom is a worthy goal. You will have to GROW yourself into a person CAPABLE of creating financial freedom, and even more in order to keep it and grow it. Your BURNING DESIRE to become such a person is the starting point for your success.

When you choose to become PASSIONATE about being your best, living life to the max, sharing your gifts with others, and understanding that every setback brings you closer to your dreams, you will finally begin to see the secret to really special success.

My entrepreneurial philosophies are based on 2 of the greatest entrepreneurial minds I have ever known, Michael Gerber and Harv Eker. Their successes are legendary. Their knowledge is unquestioned. I see the big picture both of them paint, and understand their mindset when it comes to success as an entrepreneur.

Remember, Financial Freedom happens when you have enough PASSIVE income to pay for your desired lifestyle. If you create a business the way I’ll be teaching you how to create it, you will have all the choices on what to do with it. That means, if you want to sell it and take the cash you can. If you want to run it yourself and take the profits, you can. If you want to hire outside managers and have them run it, you can. If you want to take it public and get a bunch of shares, you can. You will be in control.

As we begin the month of May, I hope you’ll make a declaration to yourself that you are going to make the balance of this year the starting point to your blast off to financial freedom. That means the desire to learn, to grow, to try, and try, and try and try……

Thank you for your precious time.

Namaste.

Can It Really Be Done??

Can someone really make a million dollars in their own business in 3 years or less?

My mentor and friend, Harv Eker, President of Peak Potentials Training, taught me that it absolutely could be done, and I am here to tell you all right now, that I am a living testament to this fact!

Harv wrote a small book called SPEEDWEALTH several years ago that outlined exactly what to do to accomplish this feat. There were no smoke and mirrors, just the absolute necessary information to make it happen.

When I ran Peak Potentials Training for Harv several years ago, I saw first hand how he used these exact same strategies to grow his company exponentially.

Now, you’d think that given this incredible knowledge everyone who learned the SPEEDWEALTH system would become financially free. Sadly, nothing could be further from the truth.

Why do you think it is that so few people actually succeed at creating a million dollar business in 3 years or less, even when they’ve been given the exact steps to achieve these results?

It’s primarily because of the way most people are wired. It’s because of most people’s financial and success blueprint. It’s because…..IT’S ONE THING TO KNOW WHAT TO DO, BUT IT’S A WHOLE DIFFERENT THING TO DO WHAT YOU KNOW!!

Back in the 1980’s, Harv opened up one of the first personal home fitness stores in Toronto, Canada. He learned how to market his store so that he had crowds of people lined up just trying to get in. Once he had his formula for creating a profitable store, he rapidly opened up a dozen more, before selling half his interest to the Heinz Corporation (the ketchup people) for $1.5 million just 3 years later.

At the same time he opened his store, another person opened up a competing store across town. I understand, she still owns her store. She opened her store to earn a living. Harv opened his store to create wealth. A bit of a different mindset, wouldn’t you agree?

When my traveling from Phoenix to Vancouver became a burden, and it was obvious that Peak Potentials would never have to open up a U.S. operation, it was time for me to move on. And I vowed that I would put the entrepreneurial strategies I learned from Harv and his guest trainers to the test and see what I could do in 3 years or less using those methodologies.

Forget about 3 years! I’ll be there in 2 years! Not only that, but I’m having more fun, taking more vacations, and enjoying life more now than at any other time in my life. I’m creating massive value for my clients, and as the saying goes, success breeds success. The more clients I have, the more income I have. That allows me to do more marketing, which in turn creates even more clients. Happy, satisfied clients refer their friends and relatives to me, and my business is growing exponentially now.

Within the next year, I hope to be training others in the use of many of these entrepreneurial systems as I do my public speaking and training around Phoenix.

Do you want to create financial freedom for yourself and your family? Are you ready to start thinking big and living big? If you are, the opportunity to make that dream a reality is within your grasp.

There are 3 huge components to financial success…..

EARN more money….
KEEP more of your money….
GROW your money.

The entrepreurial strategies will show you how to earn more money. BANK ON YOURSELF will show you how to keep more of your money. All that’s left is how to grow your money, and I’ll be sharing those ideas with my clients as we get to that stage.

You are just 3 years away from living your financial dreams. As another mentor of mine, Wade Cook said many years ago…..”If you’re willing to do for a few years what most people won’t, you can do for the rest of your life what most people can’t”.

Commit to joining the elite top 5%. Join this club and you will never regret it the rest of your life. This blog is dedicated to you, the 5%er!

Namaste.

Jeff
