I am only doing this because I signed up for it myself with intention to pay attention this time as I think they have something really valuable to offer both us IM biz builders as well as offline businesses, new or established alike. >>>>

I don’t know if you’ve ever heard of Psychotactics.com. I’ve enjoyed their website and have found it to have very useful business/marketing information.

Just the other day, I got an invitation that said Psychotactics was giving away a workshop they sell for $2500. And, that they are doing a test and giving a limited number of copies away absolutely FREE…No charge. This workshop, the Brain Alchemy Masterclass, explains why structure—not marketing—is critical to growing a business effectively.

A free giveaway like this would normally have a catch of some sort, but this one (strangely) doesn’t. I’ve made sure I’ve signed up to their waiting list, so that I can get my copy of these goodies soon. You should check it out, and if you find it useful, you should get on the waiting list before it’s filled.

I’m sending you this note because I thought this workshop could help you. You should check it out and judge for yourself.

P.S. I read somewhere on the page that there’s a deadline for this free offer, so have a look and decide.

This is part 2 that discusses what sets the Super Rich apart from your average Joe Millionaire.

The 7 Money Rules are principally derived from studying billionaires and those on the fast track to becoming super-rich. They are applicable to anyone interested in becoming significantly wealthier.

Here’s some primary differences in one’s mindset that sets the super rich apart from the average millionaire.

Rule: COMMITMENT

• Professional – seeks work/life balance, where money is only part of the equation
• Super-Rich – creating wealth is the top priority and primary motivation

Rule: SELF-INTEREST

• Professional – Looking to make everyone “happy” or get a fair deal
• Super-Rich – Making sure they are winners, strategically or financially, in every meaningful situation

Rule: LINE of MONEY

• Professional – Believe if they do what they love, the money will follow
• Super-Rich - Pursue only those activities that have significant probability of generating above-average financial returns

Rule: CONNECTIONS

• Professional – Network with a lot of people for social, cultural and business purposes
• Super-Rich - Build strong relationships with a handful of strategically valuable people

Rule: PAYOUTS

• Professional – Create rapport and look to help others
• Super-Rich – Ensure each party is duly compensated for his or her contribution

Rule: FAILURE

• Professional – Failure is a major obstacle that can cause setbacks, reassessments and new directions
• Super-Rich – Failure is a learning experience and a motivator

Rule: CENTERED

• Professional – Concentrate on overcoming weaknesses and becoming a well-rounded person
• Super-Rich – Concentrate on their strengths and delegate (outsource) everything else

Are you starting to see a pattern here?

The fluffy new-age mentality and many internet marketers who come across as likable people who want to be everybody’s buddy fit into the Joe Millionaire catagory (and so does the majority of middle management america) while Mr. Burns from the Simpsons seems to reflect the typical example of the Super-Rich profile.

Now I’ve seen people in our industry that as they have become more and more successful, begin to embody more of the Super-Rich mentality – most likely, they embraced these approaches first which is what propelled them to the next level.

The last two rules – failure and centering – I think many leaders in the IM industry (and myself) actually teach and lean more towards  the super-rich approach – learning from one’s failures and concentrating on what you’re good at while outsourcing everything else.

Maybe that glass ceiling for most people exists because it’s designed that way. The super-rich don’t want too much company. They are often greedy power mongers (and mingers,lol) at the core and their hubris nature can’t allow the minions of the world to truly compete with them, rather they are merely tools and pawns to be used to maintain their elevated wealth status.

Seems to me like if money is the primary goal, then at the end of the day, money will be all that you have. Which sounds better to you?

This is Part 1 of a two part report on Rules of Wealth Creation for those interested in becoming significantly wealthier derived from studying billionaires.

In Part 2 I will cover the difference in approaches to wealth creation of the super-rich and the average middle-class millionaire.

#1 You Commit Yourself To Extreme Wealth

The super-rich have a clear sense that money is THE main objective.  They prioritize and concentrate on activities that have the highest potential return and assign a lower priority to everything else.

#2 You Engage In Enlightened Self-Interest

The super-rich are focused on reaching their goals and don’t waver or allow themselves to be derailed or distracted by the chance for group happiness or pleas for fairness. At the same time, they regularly do the advance work needed to create an advantage or exploit a weakness in an opponent.

#3 You Put Yourself in the Line of Money

Since most skills and abilities are portable, the super-rich primarily concentrate their skills and talents in those situations that offer the highest returns. They pursue the projects and initiatives that have the highest potential for outsized returns, now and in the future.

#4 You Pay Everyone Involved

The super-rich generally never assume people are willing to work for free – working for personal satisfaction or fulfillment – and therefore they reward handsomely to cultivate loyalty and specific behaviors in their associates and business partners. The key is to identify the value people provide and reward them accordingly.

#5 You Network For Profit and Results

The super-rich practice nodal networking. Nodal networking is where a person has a few very powerful, influential, highly targeted, professional relationships with people who in turn have an array of similar relationships of their own.  Therefore they develop and maintain a small network of relationships that lead to power and influence. (The exclusive Big Boys Club).

#6 You Use Your Failures to Improve and Refocus

Failure is inevitable, so it’s not about avoiding it. Most super-rich carefully analyze their failures and do all they can to prevent repeating them.

#7 You Remain Highly Centered

The super-rich realize that they do a few things very well and they know what those skills are. This insight allows them to align their skills and talents in directions that translate into maximum personal wealth creation.

After reading through these rules, you might think that it requires a sociopathic personality to pull this off. Someone who’s a bit ruthless and cutthroat. Perhaps that is true to some degree and could be another barrier that keeps most of us from attaining vast wealth. We simply don’t have the mind or heart for it.

Ok, so I didn’t personally make this event, but I know someone who did and this is what they took away from it in their own words – good advice for WWN in IM. (What’s Working Now in Internet Marketing).

Mind you, this advice has probably always worked, and will always be good advice to follow:

(my comments are in blue italics)

One serious piece of information that I got from this event, which was especially settling for me was this…

“The major shift that is taking place in the field of Internet Marketing is actually a ‘Good Thing’! One that makes online businesses transparent and genuine to consumers.”

The regulations make ‘dishonest marketers’ scared of losing it all, and it brings the ‘honest ones’ more credibility in the marketplace.”

This is a good explanation for what Branding Yourself includes – keep this in mind when you leave comments, write blog posts, etc. What you say today doesn’t go away tomorrow.

1. Brand Equity – “Be your ‘best self’ while interacting and conducting your business online. In this age of social media technology, ‘everything about you is recorded’. Every comment you make, every opinion you have – everything! You are your ‘brand’ — your personal brand affects your future business dealings.”

2. Transparency - “Be as transparent as you possibly can. Transparency promotes trust, honesty and our best conduct.”

3. Follow Regulations - “Understand and follow regulations. Don’t give the FTC or other regulatory organizations the chance to make your life and business a ‘scapegoat’ in the marketplace.”

4. Retention Equity - “Always put more focus and time into your current customers and clients, before your bring in more new clients. That’s what will keep you in business for 5, 10, or 20 years or more in business. Even in the worst of circumstances.”

5. Value Equity – “Once you have figured out how to pay your monthly bills, the focus should be on building your value equity. Your value equity is what you generously give to your marketplace without expecting money upfront. Be generous.”

This goes without saying – I can’t say I’ve followed this advice to the tee as I’ve focused on offering value before I have ‘figured out how to pay the bills’ from IM efforts. Not saying I’m right or wrong, just didn’t do it this way.

*****

Can’t emphasize #6 enough – although modeling successful people is very important, you need to be willing to believe in yourself and set yourself apart  by being authentic.

6. Maverick Entrepreneur – “Do business the way you want to. Stop looking at your competition all the time and matching everything they offer. Your energy is well spent showing your own authentic personality and your uniqueness will pay you thousand folds’.

Hopefully you can take some of this advice and run with it – or better yet, you are already doing these things. Good for you!

Here goes:

Ever notice how whenever someone comes out with a new SECRET technique – whether they’re charging you for it or giving it away for free, that when YOU go to try it, it almost always bombs? Costing you time and money in the process too.

Seems like the technique worked for them in the past tense, now that it no longer produces, they can let the kitty out of the sack and share their ‘SECRET‘ with the world.  Awww, how generous of ya. I guess that means you a good guy a me now follow you and give you money, okeedokie?

I think what the Secret Technique really is, is it’s just a leveraging tool for creating higher value for the person sharing it. It’s like,” Look – I know what I’m doing. I made bank on this little trick.” (Now, because it was a one time, one trick pony) I share it with everybody announcing my greatness to the world and by the way won’t you please pay attention to me? Me,  a person who is successful and savvy. You’ll follow me now? Really? Great! Now check out all these offers I have to sell you! Ah yes, mo’money mo’money mo’money.

Seriously, think about it. If you fall upon a technique or manufacture one with some co-conspirators, you can now show off your paypal transactions and brag about your growing bank account that happened, ‘literally overnight while I was asleep‘. This will suddenly give you street cred and people will think you are on to something big.  They buy in for however you package it. Your real money is now made on selling this ‘not-so-secret-anymore technique’ to the masses as well as building a HUGE email marketing list that a percentage will keep buying the next greatest thing you offer to them. Brilliant.

This is something that I believe needs to be brought up.  I’m tired of seeing so much failure experienced by so many coupled with too much brewhaha and smoke and mirrors by the few who ARE making it.

It seems to me like there is a huge BRIDGE missing in the whole rags to riches stories that are out here in IM Land. Don’t you agree?

I mean, everybody I know (and plenty I don’t) who are ALREADY successful or at least BS-ing their success never seem to mention or acknowledge how or what it was that finally brought them up from the depths of homogenous moneyless amateurism to the sudden ability to make money on command. You know, where they already seem to have made it, claim to tell you how easy it is and how they can (for a price) show you how to do it too?

Funny thing is, every time you buy into one of these things, if you stop to pay attention, you’ll realize that the HOW they are making their money is by selling their story and maybe some techniques and tools along with it. That is NOT the same thing as how THEY made their first money.

Often, it’s claimed that it was a mental shift – a Mindset Change – if I may take liberty there. Like, “the day I decided to be a leader, I was a leader.” Seriously? Come on. I wasn’t born yesterday.

Ok, I’m not going to get all negative and Devon Downer on ya.  I would like to see less hiding behind marketing hoopla and more authenticity. My two cents worth. Keep in mind that none of this will still not guarantee your success :

• Luck
• Persistance
• Consistency
• Motivation and Passion
• Modeling the Right mentors
• Money for tools, advertising, etc

I think advice like pretending to be successful is ingenuous and foolish. Better hope you make it before they peak behind the curtain. Not a good way to present yourself to the world.

By far the most annoying thing I find is those people who hook you with a product that may or may not be good and then you find them promoting a new different  affiliate offer to you everyday till you unsubscribe. My god, if you multiply that by however many ‘guru’s email lists you subscribe to, you’ll be on the  Information Overload Express Train to Crazy Town without a nickel to your name because you foolishly spent every cent on all these conflicting next best gotta-have things.

Phew! Ok, a bit discombobulated rant there but I’m sure I speak for the 1000s of frustrated marketers who are trying to figure out the missing link that separates the winners from everybody else.

If you ARE one of the success stories, why not take this as an opportunity to be a new STAND OUT guy or gal who tells it like it REALLY IS.  Might make even more money while you are at it.

I’ve been busy on other projects so I apologize for not being more consistent on this blog.

Ok, I will admit I have been challenged by clutter in my environment, which as you may realize, will adversely affect your head.  Now I’m not so bad that I’d be worthy of that Horders show – not by a long shot. That’s a symptom of a serious psychological disorder…. Anyway,

Cluttered space = cluttered mind.

You could replace the word “clutter” with fragmented, scattered, distracted, over extended, or what have you.

Thanks to my best friend casually mentioning a book he dug out of his, uh, pile of  stuff, I ran and got a copy of this book that after reading, realized that it is a MUST READ for self-proclaimed pac-rats. Honestly, I can’t think of too many people who wouldn’t benefit from this book in some part of their life.

Without cluttering up this post with any more talk, here’s the book I HIGHLY RECOMMEND>>>http://amzn.to/CluttersLastStand

Just a suggestion- I recommend the 2005 updated copy over the 1984 version.

Don’t forget – if you can’t swing $10 bucks for a book, there’s always your friendly neighborhood. . .
