It really is a crazy and unfair world out there…

On one hand, there are people who seem to bust their proverbial behind working year after year trying to make a dollar in business or working for a boss… all to earn a pay cheque that does little more than pay the bill.

On the other hand, there are those who seem to have found a better way and find all the money they need. What I’m talking about here are people who live life on their own term – working when they want, with whom they want. What’s more they have all the free time in the world to spend time with their family… travel and really enjoy life.

And when it comes to the problem of business like competitors… difficult economic conditions and staff hassles, these folks keep living the good life like nothing is changed.

You see these rich people set up their business so it works without them. Poor people set their business so they always have to be there. Consequently rich people own their business, poor people are owned by their business.

And proof that the business owns you is that it can’t function without you. Now if you are a self-employed mostly you finish up being employed by yourself and of course this stills makes you an employee.

And most employees (self-employed) are broke job owners. Here is why.

Under all wealth is a SYSTEM and the SYSTEM is the foundation of the business that allows it to work without you. A business system is a

Repeatable process that provides a predictable profitable outcome every single time.

The most common example of this, of course, is McDonalds. I think on average McDonalds stores turn over about $2,000,000 per annum with a handy net profit. And the owner is only required to work 1 day per year. All this is mostly achieved by a bunch of hormonal teenagers who we struggle to get a “grunt out of”.  In fact the best part about their bedroom is you can close the door so you don’t see the mess they create or hear what goes on.

Don’t get me wrong, I know there’s exception to the rule but I do come from firsthand experience. I had two of my own. And although grateful for how they’ve turned out, there was a time when they behaved like they came from another planet. On one occasion it got so bad that one of them was banished to the granny flat.

So how does McDonalds do it? Get them to do what we can’t get them to do, it’s called a SYSTEM.

Henry Ford created 2 SYSTEMS, the assembly line for building cars and dealership for selling them.

If you are a cog in your business you will eventually become a clog with limitation on your earning potential. Remember, my goal for you and your goal for you should be to build a business that provides you with a passive income (P.I) and to build the value of the business (B.V) so you can sell it someday for a big pay day if you choose.

Remember also, most people only are in business for working income (W.I) and there is no leverage in that.

Now it’s not uncommon to find production and delivery SYSTEMS but it’s very uncommon to find anybody with a reliable predictable profitable marketing SYSTEM. And frankly this is the most valuable SYSTEM of all, simply because it makes you money, and it doesn’t cost you money.

Interestingly enough most people spend their time creating great products and services first, when what they should be doing is creating a GREAT MARKETING SYSTEM first. After all when does somebody know your product or service is great? Only after they’ve purchased it. That’s why a marketing SYSTEM is the most valuable SYSTEM you can have.

This is where it all culminates – the idea behind SYSTEMISATION is to create an automatic money creating machine that works without you. I promise you they’ll be queuing up to buy any money making machine that works without them. And SYSTEMS is the key to all success.

How many of you will like to be more successful than what you are right now? How many of you would like to be just plain “filthy rich”. Well I really appreciate you reading my blog which I prefer to call my “Rebellious Rant”. But by the end of this rant, I think you are going to be appreciative of it too.

I know that’s a bold statement but I think I can back it up because I believe I have finally figured out why the vast majority of people do nothing, even when they have been presented with the solution to the problem they have. I can’t remember where I read it (probably too much red wine over the dam) but I believe only 4% of people act on a solution to a problem when present with it.

Whatever way you look at it, it’s a damning stat that I think I’ve uncovered the reason for.

If business profit and success has been a bit like the Loch Nest Monster… you’ve heard about it, read about it, but you haven’t actually seen it yet… then it’s because of something you don’t know right now that rich people do know.

For example, did you know that most rich people THINK the same way and USE VERY SIMILAR STRATEGIES (particularly in business) to get rich.

So it goes without saying that you should do what rich people do and a great place to start is to study rich people to UNDERSTAND what they do.

One of the biggest difference between rich and poor people is

Rich people COMPLETE what they start…
They bring what they start to FULL FRUITION.

The number 1 problem for 80% of people is they never finish what they started and they never had a clear picture of what the end should look like, the finishing line, before they started. Then the problem of not COMPLETING becomes a habit and people take it with them to all the parts of their life.

Think of it as an 800 m race, there’s a start and there’s a finish. So in a sense people start the race and don’t finish. It’s a bit like me running a seminar where I don’t turn up at the start, don’t come back from the breaks on time and I don’t play full tilt 100% of the time, you will feel ripped off, wouldn’t you?

Another problem is 80% of people don’t start at the start, trying to join the 800m race in the middle, only to be disqualified at the end.

What happens is people try one thing after another being attracted to the next “shiny object” never COMPLETING what they started in the first place. Hence, there was NEVER a chance of “success”. Then they blame everyone and everything for their failure when in fact it was a problem they have with COMPLETION.

Look, let me ask you as question, could you be good or great at anything if you stuck with it long enough to be good at it? Maybe with a few physical exceptions, your answer will be yes. Mine too. You see everything…

I’m good at I was once bad at, everything I’m still bad at is because I never invested enough time, energy, or money (COMPLETE) to be good at it.

Congratulations are in order here. If you are reading this you are already part of the 10%ers, not the 90%ers who are drinking beers and watching TV. The thing about 90%ers is that they have a problem, they always have to be content with…

someone else deciding how much money
they can have and when they can have it.

Us, the 10%ers, will never be satisfied with someone else telling us what we are worth.

A common question I get asked is, #1 “how long it will take?” #2 “how much is it going to cost?” #3 “What am I going to get?” Well, if you did a 5 year MBA (3 year degree and 2 year MBA), it’s going to cost you roughly $80,000 per year at Harvard Business School or $40,000 per year at UWA, either way it’s not cheap and you are going to get real smart. I won’t understand you and you are going to learn a lot of stuff I’ll never use.

Conversely if you spend 3 days with me learning what I call the Streetsmarts, it’ll cost you about $2000, you are going to get real street smart also and there is a name for you. IT’S BOSS… and here is what I know. More of YOU (boss) will employ more of them, than they will ever employ.

And if you want to be filthy rich you’ve got to COMPLETE what you started because that’s what filthy rich people do.
