Wealth Creating System Step 5 - Finding Your Vision

Welcome to the 5th step of my Wealth Creating System (please read step 1, 2, 3 and 4 first) and today I want to explore finding your vision. Discovering precisely why you want to be rich is a vital step on your route to creating wealth – it will supercharge your efforts for success.

How to Find Your Vision

Ask yourself this most important question “What do I want?” and whatever you answer, the next question you must ask yourself is: “What do I want it for?”

People want what they want for a variety of reasons. Some people want to have money because they think it will give them “security”; others want it because they think it will buy them “freedom”. Still others want a sense of “power” or “achievement” or “success”.

Each one of these words represents your highest values – the things that are important to you and bring a sense of meaning and richness to your life. If all you did was achieve your goals without fulfilling your values, your success would be empty and the chances are that your life would feel hollow and you would feel empty on the inside.

You might have money, but creating wealth would not bring you happiness. When you imagine what you would be like in your richer life, I want you to notice if it makes you feel really good to think about it. If it doesn’t, you need to be more creative.

Think about it – if you rely solely on meeting your goals as a measuring stick for your success in life, you are going to spend an awful lot of time feeling like a failure. But when you focus on living your values each day, you are not only more likely to reach your goals; you are more likely to enjoy your life.

Your Vision and Values

Let’s begin to explore both what you want to create in your life and what you want to create it for – your vision and your values . . .(you can find my vision and values on my wealth creation blog)

1. Imagine that it’s 5 years from today and your life is filled with the most wonderful things imaginable. Your life is truly rich in every way! Write a sentence or two about what has happened in each of the following areas: health; career; finances; relationships; lifestyle.

2. Go back through each paragraph you have written and circle, underline or highlight each key goal or milestone that emerged.

3. Now, for each of the major goals or milestones you have identified, ask yourself: “What do I want this for? What will having this give me?” Your answers should be just a few words long – things like “a feeling of joy”, “a sense of achievement” or “freedom”.

4. Repeat this exercise over the next few weeks. You can play with different time frames (i.e., 1 year, 10 years, etc) and different categories (i.e., “business success”, “family”, etc.). You can find "How to Write a Compelling Vision Statement" on my blog.

Each time you run through this exercise, you are programming your mind to begin creating what it is that you want to live a rich life. The next step is to automate the process so that you can move towards your rich life every single day.

That’s all for now, have an awesome day and come back soon for the 6th step of my Wealth Creation System and don't forget to get your FREE copy of "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill on my blog and finally please feel free to leave a comment and share this with others.

Re: Your choice between... Re: Your choice between... - I will take the $100,000 and double it on it becomes millions before I spend it. Though I am crazy about information, yet I would rather take the money and turn it into a million before I spend a dime out of it. I will do it in 4 steps. Step 1 turn $100,000 to $200,000 Step 2 turn $200,000 to $400,000 Step 3 turn $400,000 to $800,000 Step 4 turn $800,000 to $1600,000. After getting the goal of step 4, I will spend the $600,000 on myself then continue to double the millions again. I could then by the book for $1,000,000
Step by step approach Step by step approach - Here's what I would do; Step 1 - Observe Wal-Mart’s target customers, what does Wal-Mart offer them? How long do they stay? Discover what it is that they might want or need that Wal-Mart doesn't offer, and then write those ideas down. Some ideas to get you started are - A cafe or fast food venue, something for the kids to do while the parents shop, etc Step 2 - Take that list, and weigh up the pros and cons of each idea, and then select the best one for you. Don't worry about not using all the space. Step 3 - Start the best business for you, and then release the other ideas to the general market and sublet the rest of the space to those who could fill some of the niches you've come up with, plus any they can come up with. If money isn't a factor then developing the building to suit multiple small leases may be a better option, as it's a diversified income, which is potentially more stable than one big income stream.
Need a book recommendation for writing better Need a book recommendation for writing better - I'm always looking for ways to improve my writing skills, so I was just wondering if anyone could recommend a good copywriting or copyediting book? I was actually thinking of reading "The Copywriter's Handbook : A Step-by-Step Guide to Writing Copy That Sells" by Robert W Bly [u:w3cg00nn]OR[/u:w3cg00nn] "The Copyeditor's Handbook: A Guide for Book Publishing and Corporate Communications" by Amy Einsohn. Would anyone know if these books are any good? Thanks
Re: Video conference system for families living in different cou Re: Video conference system for families living in different cou - 1) How much will someone pay for the service? 2.1) What costs are involved on the business end? 2.2) What percent on top of that do you think you deserve as profit? 3) How many people will sign up for the service? These three will give you a rough estimate of the value of your idea. use the equation below with respect to the questions above to figure out the value of your idea. ((1 - (2.1 + 2.2)) X 3) You have alread identified major problems for your idea -- you have competition that is free! Computers are easy to hook to televisions, and it is becoming easier at very fast rate. (For free stuff other than skype, look up NetMeeting if you have Windows XP.) The video conferencing systems do a poor job of creating the feel of a physical presence. Even high dollar systems with dedicated internet bandwidth and extremely nice tracking video cameras do a poor job, especially for long distance runs. I have the experienced the disappointing performance of some of these systems on our campus. Video can not recreate the connection felt when in the same room with another person. Step 1, Quickly and roughly calculate the cost of the system you propose. Step 2, Compare that with what you think someone will pay and the cost of your current compeition. Step 3, Go / No-Go.
Book: The System Book: The System - [quote:3e8ncw28]What was the name of that book -- the high finance murder mystery?[/quote:3e8ncw28] Sorry for the delay in answering this question. The book is: The System: A Story of Intrigue and Market Domination Terry Waghorn Perseus Piblishing 2002 Jacket description: In a world where competitive advantage is temporary at best - and illusory at worst - there is nothing more important to the business enterprise than creating a robust strategy and executing it with Steve. In The System, Terry WAghorn illustrates this universal theme through an action-packed adventure.
