SO, you want to be Wealth, do you?

Just as the old blues song goes, "Everyone wants to go to heaven, but nobody wants to die!" So goes wealth. It seems today everyone wants to be rich but few want to work for it. Today the best way to control your destiny and to build equity for yourself is to work for yourself. 

In today's uncertain economic times, jobs are precious and the "protected" job is something of a dinosaur. You'll bust your buns with long work weeks; non-stop travel; cutbacks that just mean more stress and work for the survivors. You simply must get yourself into a situation where you control your destiny.  It's getting scary when companies cut staff hours to 39 hours a week so they don't have to pay benefits. Or, loyal employees are laid off weeks before retirement benefits kick in. Or in some highly publicized cases where long term employees lose everything because of fat cat mismanagement.

One solution of this is that if you're willing to work hard for someone else, you should be willing to work hard for yourself. Find something that turns you on; that you are interested in and then think. That's right think about how you might make a living by doing that job.

That job that was perfect for me was Business Coaching. It feels like the last 35 years of my career was a "dress rehearsal" for becoming a successful business coach. I own my own business and through my hard work and sacrifice (for myself) I have built a very strong and successful practice. Recently I was honored to have the opportunity to build FocalPoint Coaching in the state of Arizona. I will continue to coach as that is my passion, but I will also be recruiting new coaches to help businesspeople throughout the state of Arizona and around the world. They will control their own destiny and build equity in their own business from their hard work.  But the point is we control our own destiny.

Brian Tracy recently published a short article on the ways to become wealthy... and I thought that it ties in nicely to what we're endeavoring to build here in AZ. So, here it is. Enjoy and take heed to the message. And if you need some help accomplishing everything you want in life, give us a call!
