The purpose of Wealth Masters International (WMI) is to help you grow as a conscious human being. If we want to see the world the way it really is we need to delve whole-heartedly into three main areas; health, wealth and wisdom. Everyday we make conscious decisions and personal development should be at the top of everyone’s list. Did anyone ever bother to ask you if you want a life of prosperity or a life of poverty? No one should care more about your career, about your family, about your health, about your money, and about your future than you! Those that succeed will be those who take control of their destiny.

We are all born with special talents, and our gifts can be used to transform the world in any number of ways. But let’s face it everyone’s concept of having money and wealth is different. We want to have a meaningful life, and then there’s the flip side a life that’s spent in the pursuit of money. Some of us don’t know what we want. We have got it backwards. We haven’t thought it through. Let me explain what I mean…

In a perfect world we live in a world of absolute abundance, and we would be able to have anything and do anything we wanted. We would be in complete control of every moment of our lives. We could work when we want, sleep when we want, and travel when we want.

That’s what freedom looks like. Unfortunately, we don’t live in a perfect world. Not everyone drives the best cars, lives in the best houses, or work in the best jobs.

We know the more money we have the more abundance we have. Money gives us more choices and more freedom. With it we are able to buy material items, and do the things we’ve always wanted to do. The richest people in the world can almost do whatever they want. Even if an individual is not motivated by money to attain great material things in life, they can grasp the concept of acquiring great things to give back and create success and wealth in others. What I’m really talking now about the principal of dynamic wealth creation.

Most people believe that when they make a lot of money and once they have a lot of money they will become more philanthropic. They will begin forming foundations, or giving to charities or giving more time in their local communities but, once you understand this powerful concept by creating wealth in others that it will come back to you ten fold. This concept, once it’s understood will have you helping others first. You see, if it truly works I can tell you from anyone I’ve ever respected, every author I’ve ever read, every personal mentor I’ve ever had, I have seen this happen in their life. They understand the concept about giving back first.

This helps you understand that the personal money mindset is about wealth creation.

Money is one of the most important subjects of our entire life, some of life’s greatest enjoyments and many of its disappointments will stem from your decisions about money. Whether you experience great piece of mind or constant anxiety, may depend upon getting your finances under control.

When you understand money, how to make it and how to keep it, it’s absolutely essential to your life, to your relationships to your happiness, and to your future. Once you’ve completed this wonderful education that you are about to receive right now. You will find you are in complete control of your money, and of your money mindset, and not the other way around.

Your hard-earned money should work for you. You shouldn’t work for your money. It’s no secret that the wealthy have figured this out. It’s the opposite of what most of us do which is work hard for our money.

Poverty consciousness is a really hard thing for far too many people, for most of the planet. In some cases we are raised by some of the worst financial planners in the world, our parents. They are teaching us what was taught beforehand and unfortunately, we all get it wrong.

It is a very important concept to understand the conditioning that we have all been through during the course of our lives. The old paradigms think that we go to school, we should get good grades, therefore we can get a good job, then we can stay at the same job for 30 years, and we can live a comfortable retirement on the little bit of time we have on this planet.

Unfortunately, the old paradigm has put us into a box. We are taught to act and think as a group and taught to only act in a way that will only help other people. This might work well in kindergarten as you learn the truth about life. However, as you become an adult and learn about real problems that happen in your life, these old principles will no longer work for you.

What does a proper money mindset do for you?

It’s important that you understand that the old box that you were confined to no longer has to enslave you. Understand that the way you view an asset as opposed to a liability, the way you view what debt instead of being something that some people have is a necessary ingredient to living. Instead is something that will continue to enslave you, and keep you down.

Until you have figure out what the wealthy know and the 1% of this planet understand, poverty consciousness will continue to be a very real thing for you, and for most people on this planet.

There’s never been a better time to reflect on where you have been, and where you are going. It’s time to get serious about having complete financial and personal freedom in your life. We can show you how!

When we pay attention to what matters most we are living consciously. Think about this statement for a moment. We live in an age where our attention is being constantly being diverted on a daily basis. I was asked the question one day: what is deserving of your attention?

Needless to say, I was momentarily stumped. Is this a trick question, or a question that’s just tricky? In the true entrepreneurial spirit I wanted make my business flourish so here’s the list of what matters most.

Okay, so just how did I decide what’s worthy of my attention? Here’s my most valuable list to date, and it is definitely something worth sharing.

Wealth
• Goal setting is an important part of building wealth. When my goals are focused I have a greater chance of turning them into reality. I keep them posted in plain sight, this means where I can see them.
• Manage my debt. When I sink into debt I am doing the opposite of what I should do to achieve real wealth. Best to get it under control.
• Living within my means. Many wealthy people recount sacrifices that were made so they could attain the level of success and financial freedom they now enjoy.

Health
• Buy every product out there, even if you don’t need it. I’m just kidding on this one, but you get the picture, I’m sure. I’m guilty of buying new foods or new exercise equipment especially if pitched by someone’s whose ultra fit. They must be great I think… I saw the ad on TV! I’ll state this now with total conviction, the opposite of impulse buying is taking the time to properly evaluate your purchases. If it’s not nutritious or seems like a fad, I don’t even think about it, anymore.

Wisdom
• Take calculated risks. The flip side of every risk you take in business can be either beneficial or not. If the calculated risk produces an attractive return then by all means I’ll take it.
• Make making ecologically sound choices is both wise and financially sound. You can read about it in David Bach’s book Go Green, Live Rich. Consumer habits determine “the quality if your life.”

Environmental awareness is the name of the game these days.
Just thinking about this question in great detail helped me discover what matters most to me and why. This led me to the conclusion that my attention is precious. I noticed that if I want to I can choose to give my attention to just about anything I thought was relevant in my life. I knew I really wanted to focus on my income, and I did that. Additionally, I wanted to give some attention to diet and exercise, going green, and to donating my time to a worthy cause. And you know what? It feels great!

The opposite side of the coin is that if you don’t make proper choices, your attention will be pulled towards something by default. There will be someone else out there that will make the decision for you. Could be your boss, a family member, an advertiser, the myriad of social influences that exist in today’s society, it won’t be something that you deliberately chose.

When you don’t make these choices yourself, you fall back into unconscious living, and your results will suffer. Living in an unconscious way tends to result in a poor way compared to the results you can get from living consciously.

Attention is a precious resource, and something that I invest in carefully and thoughtfully. When I pay attention to the things that matter the most my business started to flourish. So I’ll leave you with the question: What is deserving of your attention? It will be interesting to see what comes back!

Martin E.P. Seligman, Ph.D. taught me a lot about making choices when he wrote the book Authentic Happiness: “Optimists have a strength that allows them to interpret their setbacks as surmountable, particular to a single problem and resulting from temporary circumstances or other people. “Pessimists are 8 times as likely to become depressed, they do worse than their talents warrant and they often lose national elections. So what are the pros and cons of optimism and pessimism? The results will surely surprise you…

“Pessimists in contrast have a particularly pernicious way of construing their setbacks and frustrations. They automatically think that the cause is permanent, pervasive and personal. ‘It’s going to last forever, it’s going to undermine everything, and it’s my fault.’ Seligman admits to being a recovering pessimist. As he waited for a phone call to see if he had won his association’s presidency he was sure that a busy signal meant that he had lost the election, and of course it was because he wasn’t qualified enough, and hadn’t devoted enough time to winning. In reality he had won.

I truly believe that deep down inside we all want happiness, to be at peace with ourselves, and free from harm. We want to experience pleasure and we want to love one another. Happiness is something that we pursue so relentlessly, yet at times it can seem so elusive. Why is that?

Well, for one thing we are bombarded with insistent messages promising us a luxurious life and joy on credit. The happy racket and false promise enterprise is indeed big business these days. When we look at different aspects of our lives including wealth, health and wisdom we realize that we need all three to work in synchronicity.

Can optimism or happiness be learned? It seems it can to a certain degree. We do not yet “view positive motivations: loving kindness, competence, choice and respect for life as being as authentic as the darker motives.” – Martin EP Seligman.

With the relentless pursuit of happiness we may enter trouble. Could it be that we are looking for the wrong kind of pleasure, the passive kind?

Countless research studies have proven that when animals or people learn that what they do, and their actions have no effect on their environment, they lapse into a state of passive listlessness. They become depressed, and feel hopeless.

Pessimists may be more accurate in their perception, but optimists live longer. It is really two different ways of seeing the world. A positive mood brings people into a mode of thinking that is creative, tolerant, constructive, generous, un-defensive, and lateral. “We look for what is right not what is wrong.” A negative mood “activates the battle station’s mode of thinking: the order of the day is to find out what is wrong and eliminate it.”

Martin Seligman’s findings were inspirational: Happy people are more altruistic and generous. They focus less on themselves, like others more, and want to share their good fortune. When we are down, we trust others and life less. We turn inward in defense and focus on our own needs. Looking out for number one comes from a place of a deep distrust and unhappiness. It makes perfect sense to make the choice to be happy to see the world differently.

Seligman has an actual formula for happiness.

It is H=S=C=V.

H is the enduring level of happiness.

S is your set range: are you born an optimist or a pessimist.

C is the current circumstances of your life and V is events over which you do have control. So your enduring level of happiness depends upon your genes, your circumstances and your sense of control.

Happiness is written in the United States Declaration of Independence as an inalienable right: Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. These rights are not contingent upon the laws, customs, or beliefs of any particular culture or government. Martin suggests that we use gratifications versus pleasures. Enduring pleasure has to do with enacting personal strengths and virtues, this is something that each of us will find to be different. It is what we were born to do. It is our essence.

Happiness is relative. We have so many talents, strengths and possibilities that need to be formulated into a plan of action. It is a vision of what we want to become.

Everyone knows the glamorous side of Elizabeth Taylor. You see it everywhere. But how many of us really knew that she was a relentless crusader and Aids activist? For those who were lucky enough to know her she devoted consistent and generous humanitarian time, advocacy efforts, and funding to HIV and AIDS related projects and charities. She hopped on board as one of the first celebrities to bring about awareness at a time when few acknowledged the disease of AIDS. She was instrumental in organizing and hosting the first AIDS fundraiser in 1984 to benefit AIDS Project Los Angeles. But, it didn’t stop there…

As an active participant in the fight for AIDS she was involved in raising more than $100 million and expanding public awareness. She was proud of the 30 years she spent with both charities and her fundraising efforts did not go unnoticed. The charitable donations raised were used to fight the pandemic disease; confront its discrimination; and to expand research, treatment access, education, and additionally government funding.

Rock Hudson was her co-star in Giant in 1956, and they struck up a friendship that would last a lifetime. Though he’d been diagnosed with AIDS in 1984 he only disclosed to her about having the disease in 1985. Hudson was also one of the first major Hollywood celebrities to die from an AIDS-related illness. On July 25, 1985 Hudson issued a press release announcing that he was dying of AIDS, and he died in October of the same year. He was sixty. “I remember complaining, ‘Why isn’t anybody doing anything? Why isn’t anyone raising money?’” asked Elizabeth. “And it struck me like lightning: ‘Wait a second, I’m not doing anything.’” But she would. Elizabeth Taylor’s plan of action took flight.

She was one of the many activists who were seeking to de-stigmatize AIDS and its victims. Hudson’s revelation of his own infection with the disease was viewed as an event that could transform the public’s perception of AIDS. In 1985 Elizabeth Taylor became the cofounder of the American Foundation for AIDS Research (amfAR) with Dr. Michael Gottlieb and Dr. Mathilde Krim. She also founded the Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation (ETAF) in 1993, created to provide critically needed support services for people with HIV/AIDS.

In 2006, Elizabeth Taylor commissioned a 37-foot “Care Van” equipped with examination tables and x-ray equipment and was donated to New Orleans with the money raised from the AIDS Foundation and Macy’s. That same year she donated $40,000 to the NO/AIDS Task Force, a non-profit organization serving the community of those affected by HIV/AIDS in and around New Orleans.

In 1992 Elizabeth Taylor was bestowed with an honorary Academy Award, the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award, for her HIV/AIDS humanitarian work. Jean Hersholt helped form the Motion Picture Relief Fund in 1939. The fund supports industry employees with medical care when they are down on their luck and the fund was used to create the Motion Picture Country House and Hospital in Woodlands Hills, California.

On February 9th 2011 a black-tie benefit marked amfAR’s 25th year and more than $1.5 million was raised for AIDS research. Former President Bill Clinton, Diane von Furstenberg, and Dame Elizabeth Taylor were each presented with the amfAR Award of Courage. The award is given to those who have demonstrated outstanding leadership and distinguished service in furthering amfAR’s mission. They have all played a vital role in increasing AIDS awareness and accelerating the pace of HIV/AIDS research.

On the passing of Elizabeth Taylor a statement was released by Former President Bill Clinton and Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, “Elizabeth’s legacy will live on in many people around the world whose lives will be longer and better because of her work and the ongoing efforts of those she inspired.”

As of this date, amfAR and The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation has raised a combined total of over $270 million dollars. “I hope with all of my heart that in some way I have made a difference in the lives of people with AIDS. I want that to be my legacy. Better that than for the mole on my cheek.” Elizabeth Taylor has truly made a difference. Today, 33.2 million individuals live with AIDS worldwide. The fight will not be over until that number reaches zero.

“Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion” outlines the principles of consistency, reciprocation, social proof, authority, liking and scarcity. In the introduction Robert Cialdini states; “I can admit it freely now. All my life I’ve been a patsy. For as long as I can recall, I’ve been an easy mark for the pitches of peddlers, fund-raisers, and operators of one sort or another.” Masterfully researched and written over the duration of 35 years, the book explains the psychology of why people say “yes” and how to apply this understanding to everyday life. As consumers, we like to think that we can’t be easily fooled by a salesperson. However, the book proves that we are being “sucked in” everyday to buy things we don’t want or need.

Compliance tactics used in the field of sales, fundraising and advertising, unveiled the six universal principles of ethical persuasion. The book explains the psychological triggers that influence people to comply with requests, and covers how these triggers are used. Use them to become a skilled persuader, or defend yourself against them. Hopefully, the principles will move the reader toward personal change, and act as a driving force for success.

Simple truths – Expensive implies quality Turquoise jewellery, in the peak of tourist season [marked half price] wasn’t selling. The store’s employee then mistakenly marked up the jewellery by doubling the price. Within a week the jewellery completely sold out. If it’s expensive, it has got to be good.

Power of Contrast – If you go into a men’s store the sales people always try to sell you an expensive suit before they sell you the expensive sweater, shirt or tie. The power of contrast makes the other items appear to be more affordable.

Power of Reason – People are more likely to agree to a request if a reason is given.

The following emotional methods are used to persuade/sell products and services to consumers. The six psychological influences that direct human behavior include:
1. Reciprocation
2. Commitment and Consistency
3. Social Proof
4. Liking
5. Authority
6. Scarcity

1. Reciprocity. If the person who’s selling raffle tickets buys you a coffee, you’re more likely to buy raffle tickets from them. The laws of reciprocation prove that the person, after being offered something will feel obligated to buy something even if they are not interested.

2. Commitment. Make a commitment to achieve something, once the commitment is made there is a strong desire to remain consistent to it. People like and believe in commitment, their image and reputation is what is at stake. From early on we are taught to always keep our promises. Our ingrained responses will have negative connotations if we fail to keep these commitments.

3. Social Proof. Simply put, the idea that if others do it it’s good. People follow the crowd because they believe in the wisdom of it. Assign responsibility. If you want things done tell someone to do it, otherwise, everyone will just assume that it’s being done.

4. Liking. Attractiveness, similarity, compliments, contact and cooperation can make a person more influential. Most of us say yes to the requests of those we like. The marketing of Tupperware might as well be called viral marketing. People were more likely to buy the product if they liked the person selling it to them.

5. Authority. When faced with a decision people to take the lead from people with authority. Authority can be real or imaginary; people tend to buy from people who have professional titles. Other authority figures include celebrity product endorsements or con artists who use expensive cars and tailored suits to sell every type of product.

6. Scarcity. A psychological reaction is attached to this concept; people don’t want to lose. A college student purchased second hand cars, polished them, and advertised them for sale at a distinctly higher price than what he’d paid. His secret weapon? He asked everyone who responded to his ad to arrive at the same time. The first guy to arrive was shown the car and while he was looking another prospective buyer would arrive. Then another. The first guy would be told a line is forming and given a few more minutes to make up his mind. You could imagine the anxiety that built up in the potential buyers’ minds. If the first guy did not buy, the second one almost always did.

Fortunately, Cialdini concludes each chapter with hints on “How to say no.” No matter how intelligent consumers are, they have undoubtedly fallen for many of these techniques used deliberately or accidentally. How many poor business investment decisions, product purchases, or strategic moves have been influenced by non-rational factors? Thank goodness automatic, mindless decisions are now a thing of the past!

For more than a decade now, I’ve enjoyed and literally devoured personal development info. Why? I believe the best kept secret that holds the keys to success in all areas of my life in regards to health, wealth and wisdom. One timeless audio program I recently listened to is Napolean Hill’s Keys to Success: the 17 Principles of Personal Achievement. I own a number of Napolean’s audio programs (Think and Grow Rich is my favorite), so I really enjoyed this one too as it builds upon his best seller. Think and Grow Rich was published in 1937, but I found that most of the ideas are timeless and relevant today. The amazing “secret” can be summed up in ten words: Whatever the mind can conceive, and believe it can achieve.
