Key Success Secrets – Part 1 | Introduction

In the early days of my wealth coaching career, I was always very focused on the practical, the down to earth, the “how-to” of becoming wealthy.  I’d read all the books out there on the market on the principles of wealth creation, becoming rich, the power of belief and focus, attraction principles and I was angry and frustrated!

Because none of them told you how to make money!  None of them laid out a step by step plan of  HOW TO ACTUALLY DO IT!

So my first book The Money Gym – which started as an email programme, I was not arrogant enough to think I had a book in me – was written out of that frustration;  I wanted to give you a step by step, logical plan for how to make money and even become rich.

I wrote it as I wanted it, simple, easy to understand, with pictures.  I tried to include (and credit) the best bits of all I had read or heard, from Robert Kiyosaki to Napoleon Hill, from Steven Covey to Mary Hunt, from Gill Fielding to Robert G. Allen, especially where it was helping me and making a positive difference to the way I thought and particularly to the way I acted.

Simple But Not Easy – Part I

Wealth Creation Is Simple But Not Easy!

I had a great conversation with one of my high-achieving internet mentoring clients today, Susanne Jorgensen, of http://www.thesinglesgym.com/ about the oft-repeated concept of “It’s Simple, But Not Easy” – she is really starting to understand what I mean – and I realised that it was so important that it warrants its own article.

I often say to potential Money Gym clients, when out and about speaking, that Wealth Creation is simple but not easy, and what I mean by that is that making money in each of the Four Lanes of the Wealth Highway is really simple to do, but it’s not at all easy or everyone would be doing it!

So why is it so difficult? 

We all know intellectually that we have to get off our “assets” and take action but why is that so incredibly hard to do?  Because our self esteem, our deepest emotions, our limiting and negative beliefs, our incorrect assumptions get right in the way!

Firstly, there is our cynicism to get over.  We really deep down believe that if wealth creation were as simple as everyone makes out, everyone would be doing it and from that we infer that it can’t be true.  It’s a con, it’s a cult, it’s just a scam.  I was the worst!  I often say that my hair and skin have improved enormously since becoming a wealth coach, because I’m not so cynical about better quality beauty products anymore!  In the same way that I invest in knowledge I invest in self-care and I now watch the adverts to see what works!

I never imagined before I got into this wealth creation stuff, that becoming a millionaire were so simple.  I can remember the relief I felt when Gill Fielding (one of Channel 4’s Secret Millionaires and my first wealth mentor) told me that!  She said there is only three ways to make a million (I’ve discovered a fourth since then…) and I thought, great, I can do three things!
