Looking for Leaders

There are people in this world that have a clear vision and direction as to who they are and what they want to accomplish in life.  Then, there are  those that are not necessarily looking for a leadership role but who are good at it and find themselves in this position.  Some of us need to be coached and some of us are able to do the coaching.  Wherever you are on the food chain it is important to know where you are and what your role is. Not everyone is meant to be a Leader. Some of us are meant to Follow.

I say this because I am looking for people who want to do more with their Time, Effort and Energy.  Who would like to maximize their income by leveraging their effort.  Leadership takes place through communication.  Leadership is the process for guiding individuals, groups, and entire organizations in establishing goals and sustaining action to support goals. (Shockley-Zalabak, 2009: Fundamentals of Organizational Communication).  Do you fit the profile?

Let's move ahead to the part where we all ask ourselves these questions:

Is where you are in life what you envisioned for yourself 5 years ago? 10 years ago?
How about money? Are you making enough or are you stuck in a J-O-B - Just Over Broke? 

From experience I can tell you that unless your last name is Hilton, Trump, Winfrey or Woods, you need more money. The thing about having more money is wanting more money.  Let me say it again, in order to get more we have to WANT MORE!! Then after we see the need for it we have to change our mindset to get more money.  By this I mean there has to be a change in what we do on a DAILY BASIS that moves us in the direction to have more money.  The very definition of INSANITY is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.

So Let me ask you a question:  
Are you doing the same thing over and over?  How do you expect to get any further in life if you are doing the same thing that you did 5 years ago, 10 years ago?  There is a reason why you have not gotten any results.  Before I get too deep on you I want to back the train up and ask you if you see the need to make some changes in your life?  Do you see a clear picture of what you have done in the past that as lead you to where you are TODAY?  I am hoping you are nodding your head and answering YES, because if you are there is HOPE for you and things can and will change if you ALLOW them to.

Now! how can you get started on this path this mindset shift that will help you to focus on the positive and on wealth building?  Well, I could tell you there are books that I have read and continue to read that will open your eyes.  I could also tell you that there is a magic blue pill you can take that will unplug you from the Matrix. The question is... would you read the book?  Would you take the pill?  Action is the key to any plan. We have to be ready for the next steps which requires us to do something. 

I am a huge T.Harv Eker fan and he is a brilliant author that I suggest would help you.  You could start with Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, (2005),T. Harv Eker,  then move on through his body of work.  Then there is Think and Grow Rich, (2005), Napoleon Hill (This book has been revised a few times and it just gets better and better).  Taming Your Gremlin (R), (2003):  A Surprisingly Simple Method for Getting Out of Your Own Way, Rick Carson.   There are many, many more but I will stop there.  Trust me once you get through these you will want to keep reading. 

I will leave you with this:
Wealth File #9 - Rich People are Bigger than their Problems.  Poor People are smaller than their Problems. 
WEALTH PRINCIPLE:  The secret to success is not to try to avoid or get rid of or shrink from your problems; the secret is to grow yourself so that you are bigger than any problem. T. Harv Eker, (2005): Secrets of the Millionaire Mind.
