How To Live Like A Billionaire

I love reading books and perhaps this is my confession I started out actually reading novels and crappy gamebooks which gave me 'cheap thrills' when I was young. If you can identify with this of you could just have a love to read some small novels previously or just plain reading about any great materials about life, read on.

Recently, when browsing at the local library I picked up a great book and I suggest that you should pick this up if you're really thinking about expanding or just need that 'tiny' push on your internet business. It's really a gem but don't let the title fool you to think this is just another mumbo-jumbo inspirational stuff.

Pick up "Automatic Wealth For Grads" by Michael Masterson.

Yes, I know. You're thinking - come on man... I'm not a grad anymore!

Ok, me too.

But this is different. really.

Just pick it up if you have time and read it. Order it from amazon or whatever. After going through cover to cover I felt that the most intruguing part about this book was it's final chapter which mentioned about ...

Can you believe it...

"How To Live Like A Billionaire"

Pretty catchy I must say and this is just an except from the first parapragh.

"When you think about the rich - the really rich - you may find yourself marvelling at their... well, their money. Consider for example, Bill Gates, the world's richest man. If you thnk $10 million is a fortune, consider this: He has 4,000 of those fortunes..."

Then, this is what really caught my attention.

"Consider, for example, sleeping. What does a billionaire want out of sleep time? I'd say the same thing as you do: blissful, uninterrupted consciousness. And what will give you that (besides peace of mind, which you can't buy)? Answer: a great mattress. And how much does the world's best mattress cost? Maybe $1,500"


Tell me now... how darn inspirational and mind-blowing is that two paragrahs to you?

It's was really awesome to me.

You see, what we don't know is that for the super-rich. The whole thing about earning money or hoarding lots of it really isn't to buy anymore nice toys and materials things anymore. It was for the game and for the sport of the whole cycle of business.

Think about it. You could always have what the rich have, a good bed, a good house, car and all that. They drive almost the same thing as you. Oh yes, you thought of that luxurious sports car or that 5 figure vacation, right? Well, stop it.

I guarantee you that if you really follow your hearts desires and work towards your passive income you will get more than what you will ever need in your entre life!

Learn to enjoy life. That's the lesson.


By the way, here's a few pictures of me chilling with my wife during one of our 'outings' during the past months or so. I was so lazy to put this up but felt it was due time that I had this posted. Please don't mistake me as an ego guy but just goes to show that while I earn good income from my business, I also allocate a good portion to enjoy it with my family as a celebration.

You should try it too ;)



me and wife watched the sunset =)




I'm so lazy on my lazy beach chair... the best part... my business is still working for me.


Enjoy life,

Vern

P.S. Don't envy me, join me in this incredible journey to financial freedom with this business

The Greatest Power Of An Internet Marketer

Over the past week or so I have to be quite honest...

I was sitting on my big butt! ;) Literally doing nothing. Someone should totally ask me to get off my lazy butt and get to work really. If you're in my list, I assume that you know my mobile. Just remember that when you call me it's in Singapore time. Just look at me sitting there, hah!


No, this isn't the Greatest Power Of An Internet Marketer. Far from it. There was something very profound that has been lingering in my mind during the past week and some quick catch ups with some of my fellow partners and friends really made me re-think my strategies. Of course, it all wouldn't be complete if I mentioned that I listened to some audio's on my nice Sony Ericsson phone. (Psst, I do not do anything else when I'm with my wife - that's a tip for all men out there)

While being inspired by fellow internet marketers who strangely 'preached' about basic business philopsophies, I was really drawn to my main stream of thoughts about what I've learned via my own experience in this business. The one thing that really defines the true power of an internet marketer. Do you already know this? I betcha this will refresh you as it did for me.

The Greatest Power Of An Internet Marketer.

It is the power to resist all temptations online. All opportunities and internet marketing sales pages. I tell you, for one second you're doing something and you'd be drawn to read someone else's website with a product to sell or another opportunity that promises you to make money -> you're tempted. Period.... and we know what you're going to part with.

You see, being able to resist all you see online and work on your primary business will mean that you have determination and most of all FOCUS. The key for super FAT checks in your inbox or mail is just having the key to resist and stay focused. Keep your eye on the ball. Even on the field. In soccer, the striker gets to score because he focused on the ball, where it went, how to control it and kick it at the right direction. I'd say that ball is your business.

Look for your goal post, stay focused, aim.....aim.....AIM and SHOOT!...

The crowd roars... GOAL

Leadership Files: How Can You Double Your Income?

I realised just a few weeks ago that in order to truly increase profits or in this case your income figure is to be able to do things differently from others without seeking opinions (from undesirable individuals). Most of the things we do today are an effect of our desire to want something and average people still seek another human's opinion to 'back them up'.


Johnny Wimbrey was here just yesterday and he was right to say:

"I don't care what people say about me, I take responsibility of my every actions.. because my actions determine my future"

Are you guilty of doing this?

Many times in the past, I'm guilty of also seeking the approval of others. As time went by, most of my own decisions recently seems to stem from my very own thought process and the only time I communicated with others is to share with them my ideas. This is a very inspiring lesson for me to pass on to you. If you're sitting at home reading this, probably it's a good time to just grab a piece of paper and write down the 3 ideas or actions you wanted to do very differently from others a long time ago but never did it.

Then, write down just beside each of those ideas the reasons WHY you didn't. This will show where your limitations are and what is stopping you. By identifying the problem or why you're being stuck we can move on to solving it sooner than ever. No problem is too big to solve. Trust me. Now, try to imagine how you can solve your problem by seeking the counsel of others.

Each week, you will discover a new blockage, a new limitation and more importantly if you do this consistently as I suggested - sooner of later you will find new friends and mentors.

Try it out and do something different so your future can be different from today.
