Through years of coaching, speaking and mentoring — and even more years of study — I started to notice certain things about the way people thought about money. I noticed, for example, that those who did not like or trust ‘rich people’ rarely had any money of their own.
I then developed a process, or test, that would help people determine which of their beliefs or ideas about themselves, money or economics were supporting them and which were holding them back — I called it the FQTest
I still use the original version of the FQTest in my Living Rich Experience but I have created a significantly more powerful version online so that people can do the test and receive — instantly — a report detailing what might be holding them back and what they can do to overcome these things.
Why is it that people can go to all kinds of courses and programs about investing, trading and entrepreneurship and still fail to achieve the kind of success they want? It is because of two things:
1) Their core beliefs do not support a greater level of wealth than they are currently experiencing. Einstein told us that we could not solve a problem at the same level of thinking it was created and yet that is exactly how people try to solve their financial problems. The fact is, if you want to become a millionaire or billionaire, you will have to do it twice! Once in your head (adjust the way you think) and then (and only then) in the bank.
2) There are ONLY eight pathways to wealth. Roger Hamilton, Chairman of the XL Results Foundation, determined that there were eight ways to make wealth and that the most successful (financially and otherwise) people on the planet only play one of those games – the one that is most natural to them. Warren Buffet and Richard Branson have totally different ways of looking at — and therefore making — money. Like our FQTest, Roger has created Wealth Profiling that will allow you to determine which game is most natural to you.
Doing this test has been one of the most significant changes in my life over the last several years. Identifying my Wealth Profile, and then staying ‘in profile’ has helped me achieve new levels of success but more importantly, in a way that I am enjoying a great deal.
