Do You Know What The Only REAL Wealth Is?

April 20, 2010by Paul Hutchings

Hello my friend,

I’ve been thinking about you over the last little bit and I really wanted to share something that will help your life and business in a BIG way.

When I first got started marketing online, I learned a very valuable lesson from one of the industry pros.

Rather than try to retell the story in my own words, I’m going to quote to you exactly what she said to me early on.

Ready?

Here it is…

********************************************

Dear Paul,

The one thing I want to encourage you to do

above all else is to continue to educate yourself.

If you aren’t of this mindset, you will never

be able to be successful long-term.

To really make the kind of money that can set

you free, you’ve got to acquire an insatiable

appetite for anything and everything having to

do with sales, leadership, marketing and business

skills.

There’s an oft-told story I’d like to repeat to

you.

A number of years ago two men came here from

Cuba.

There are thousands of people who risk their

lives on tiny little crafts to make it to America

every year, but let’s just focus on two of them.

They both arrived here on the same day, a new

life in front of them.

One of them was a dishwasher who worked at a

hotel in Havana. He somehow managed to steal

$500,000 from the guests who stayed at that hotel

and make it ashore with all that cash on him.

The other one barely made it alive on an inner

tube with absolutely nothing but the tattered

clothes on his back. Not a single penny. But

this guy was a brain surgeon in Cuba. One of the

best, in fact.

Now imagine 5 years have gone by.

Where’s the dishwasher? The one who came here

“rich?”

Most likely he’s broke and living on the streets.

Or perhaps in jail. Maybe even dead.

You see when he got here, he probably carelessly

spent all his money on luxury cars, houses,

drugs, partying and other impractical things.

Once he ran out, the only skill he had to make

more money with was washing dishes. But after

having a taste of “the good life,” there was no

way he could go back to doing that. So he

probably turned to crime and eventually wound

up living in a 6 x 6 cell.

The other guy – the one who came here with

“nothing” – has a great house in an upscale

neighborhood, a wonderful family, a nice car and

in general, a very prosperous life.

Why?

Because he came here with the only real wealth,

the only true financial security there is in

life…

…the kind that’s between your ears!

And no matter how broke he temporarily was, he

would always be able to pull himself out of that

situation.

You can do the same if you acquire skills that

are highly valuable. And as we’ve discovered,

there are no skills more valuable than those of

sales and marketing!

What’s more, the educational process never stops.

It doesn’t end after a certain benchmark or after

your downline has reached a certain size.

Successful people NEVER stop learning. They are

always on a quest to grow and develop themselves.

This is something that can only come from within.

No one can force feed it to you.

As Jim Rohn said –

“Formal education will make you a living; self-

education will make you a fortune.”

The amount of money the world will be willing

to pay you is directly proportionate to the

knowledge you have and your ability to put that

knowledge into useful action. The more you develop

yourself, the more you are worth.

Often times, people who’s thinking is stuck in


the “E” quadrant have a hard time understanding


this.


If you’ve read Robert Kiyosaki, you’re familiar


with the four different quadrants and what


separates the people in these quadrants.

Robert talks about how the main difference

between someone in the “E” (employee) quadrant

and someone in the “B” (business) quadrant is

simply how they think. And you can almost always

tell right away what quadrant someone is in by

the words they use.

I just paid $300 for a book called “The 12

Month Millionaire.”

Most people would think this is nuts.

What they don’t understand is that this

information, in the hands of the right person

who actually puts it to use, is worth 100 times

– 1,000 times – more than it’s actual cost.

See, when you make investments like this into

your own knowledge, don’t think about the cost

– concentrate on the VALUE.

Just briefly skimming through this book I

already picked up a handful of tips I can put

to use immediately that will make me a lot more

money this year. And I haven’t even read the

whole thing yet.

And once I’ve downloaded this info into my brain,

it’s there forever. No one can ever take it away

from me. I’ll never lose it if a phony real

estate bubble bursts or if the stock market

crashes. I’ll always have it and be able to use

it again. Even if I someday lose everything and

don’t have a dollar to my name.

Just like the man who came here from Cuba.

So again, thank you and congratulations on

taking the time to invest in yourself.

To Your Success,

Ann Sieg

********************************************

Is that an incredible lesson or what? If you did not get the full impact of what she said… PLEASE…. READ IT AGAIN!

Some people don’t understand this vital principle.

They want to shortchange success. They want to get all the money and the stuff without becoming who they need to become in the process.

Don’t be that person my friend. Be the person that understands your greatest asset (YOU), and don’t be afraid to invest in yourself.

I personally spent $10,000 CASH for the chance to spend 1 week with millionaire real estate investors a short time ago.

The result?

My family enjoys a nice degree of financial freedom with the help of residual income we get from some of our real estate holdings.

Do you think the average person would have dropped 10 grand on the real estate school?

No.

Maybe that’s why average people tend to stay average, live an average life, achieve average goals, and have average lifestyles.

Don’t get me wrong… it’s not about the stuff.

It’s about becoming the best you can be and enhancing lives while you travel your best journey.

Don’t they say that “a rising tide lifts all ships”?

Please my friend, be that rising tide.

The world needs you.

Never before has there been such a need for people that are willing to lift themselves up.

Did you know that the bible contains a very special line … “my cup runneth over”?

Think about that for a minute.

Why is it important to fill your cup so full that “it runneth over”?

Is it because we need to gather up all the resources we can and horde them to ourselves?

I don’t think so.

I think it’s because in order to help someone who is dying of thirst, we have to first have something in our cups to spare.

Don’t lift yourself up for the sake of being prideful.

Don’t lift yourself up just for the money.

Be all you can be because there are people all around you that need someone to look up to.

There are people all around you that need to know there is more to this life than being average and ordinary.

You my friend, can be that special gift for so many people, but you can only do it if you realize you need to invest in yourself and do what it takes to become the leader you are meant to be.

Let’s live abundant lives together, shall we?
