Know the Foundation of Success......

Amazingly, you do have to know the system to be successful at it. You may have detected a hint of sarcasm in that last comment. I have traveled all over this country teaching an incredible two-day seminar on The Foundation to Success. I guarantee that the system works in any market and with any type of real estate.

I include a lifetime membership in my base camp “Becoming Your Own Best Client” so
people can attend as often as they like for as long as I teach the class. I allow students to continue to attend so that they can learn every principle of this system on an expert level. Consequently, I get to see my students over and over again as I travel back and forth to different cities.

My repeat students usually fit into one of two groups. Group one consists of people who
have dedicated themselves to this system. They have learned, mastered, memorized and put into practice the principles of the Foundation to Success. Because of their efforts and commitments to this system, they have realized incredible profits and equity positions in properties. They can see their path out of the way life used to be. We rejoice together in the success they have encountered in their lives. These students find themselves forced to share this great plan with others they come in contact with. They also recruit others into this system to enable themselves to get more accomplished through leveraging people.

Group two consists of the people who have not learned the system and/or applied it. They often come up to me and tell me in one way or another that my system doesn’t work. I always ask them, “Which part of the Foundation to Success is not working for you?” If they can answer the question, which less than 1% of my students are able to do, I then promise to help them fix the step that is not working so that they can have and enjoy the success that my other students are having.

The reason so many are unable to answer my question is because they do not know which step is not working for them. They have not learned the system! I always fervently tell my students not to expect a system they do not know to work for them. We must learn it to live it! If we live it, we will have incredible success with it. The blessings of work and knowledge are innumerable. Many people truly believe that their lives will be changed by simply reading a book or attending a seminar. The application of the learning is often the forgotten step on the way to success. I have very little to do with the success of my students after they leave the classroom or finish the book.

Some students believe in the Foundation to Success so much that they have a copy of it hanging in their offices, cars, homes, kitchens, bathrooms and even bedrooms. It serves as a constant reminder of the way that they want to think and view property. The process takes hold in their thinking and in the ways they practice their business. They begin to think differently. When we think differently we are capable of acting differently. When we act and think differently, we get different results.

The joy of this system is that it works and it is very simple. Do not let the simplicity fool you. You do have to do the steps in sequence and in the way I teach them. The system works if you work. You must decide to be in Group One or Group Two. This will be determined by your willingness to embrace the system, think differently and work hard. Let’s get started! Your destiny awaits you.
