Passive Income in Ancient times – #1 Passive Income Coach
What a great setting to talk about how old passive income really is. This is me in front an ancient Hieroglyph wall from Ancient Egypt. This was in the Royal Museum in London.
Passive Income has been in existence from the beginning of time. It is not something new that arrived with the internet. Although for some passive income possibilities the internet certainly makes it easier.
Passive Income relies on the principles of leverage, creativity, duplication and systems. When you can understand how to use these specific vehicles to sell more you can create passive income.
Most people never create passive income because they don’t understand these principles. And more than that they don’t understand that these principles can apply in almost any transaction or scenario. They cna be used in business, real estate, investing, capitalizing on your own Intellectual property and even in working with your networks.
Passive Income is the foundation of all wealth. You will never be able to become wealthy unless you understand the principles of passive income or how the transactions that bring money into your life can be duplicated. Passive income comes from activity not by accident.
Passive income has been practiced since the dawn of time. Ancient cultures practiced these leveraged forms of money creation through activities such as money lending, real estate rental, using slaves as labor (not recommended today), and hiring workers to manage stores and so forth. Today there are many other tools that we can use to help create leverage, creativity, duplication and systems that will sell on your behalf. Sometimes these systems will use people other times they may not.
If you look at the history of passive income you’ll quickly recognize that it’s becoming easier, quicker and less-expensive to create passive income than every before.
Now is your time – get started and start taking back the time you are trading for money.

Some essential considerations in creating Passive Income – By #1 Passive Income Coach
Creating passive income can be hard work in the beginning. Most people in fact, never get to a high level of passive income because they give up or lose hope when the rewards don’t immediately arrive. Passive Income, when done properly, requires commitment, effort and energy. (And it’s kind of obvious who is really doing in real life when you see how people talk about passive income.)
It will also be a passive results always followed by an absolutely active beginning. Without your expertise you will also find it more difficult. Those that will buy from you to create your passive income have many choices today. They aren’t looking to give their money to people that can’t get them results or the information they need quickly – and they don’t want the same information they’ve seen everywhere else.
Passive income is really for those who are prepared to stretch and serve more than their competitors.Or set up better systems than their competitors.

Wealth secrets that often forgotten – 3
As I was writing on my newest book this morning on Wealth and Abundance I was thinking about something interesting one of my mentors told me once. I said to him, “I wanna be rich one day.” He said, “Thinking like that you’ll never get there.” I was really surprised I thought what I said was correct. He said, “It’s not committed enough try again.”
I then said, ” I am Going to be rich. And I am willing to do whatever it takes.”
Again he shook his head, “Not committed enough.” Frustrated I said, “Okay what’s better than that.”
He said, “I am rich and this is what I am doing right now.”
It was a profound lesson for me. True story.

1 simple step that will put you on the road to financial freedom
What does your financial freedom look like to you?
I often ask this question at my seminars and the responses I get are often as follows:
“I’d like spend more time on vacation.”
“I’d like to live in the house of my dreams and drive the vehicle of my choice.”
“I’d like to quit my job and spend more time with family.”
Although these answers are nice – they are not correct.
Financial freedom is not about what experiences you will have and how you think you will spend your day to day life.
Financial freedom is an exact number. How much exactly do you need to meet your obligations each month.
When you passively achieve the exact amount of income you need so that all your obligations and expenses are met you are financially free. Does this make sense? That monthly amount is your obligation or prison. So once you have attained it passively it’s no longer your prison. It’s satisfied without you.
The problem for most people is that they can tell you what they want (The experience) but they can’t tell you what it takes to make it happen.(The exact number) If your goals are specific and clear they are attainable and near. So if you want to be financially free how much money exactly do you need to have coming in passively each month.
Here’s an example:
If your monthly bills are as follows: (I know this is not a reflection of most peoples bills. But its an oversimplified example)
Mortgage $1250
Utilities $239
Groceries $250
Car payment $249
Gas $100
Total monthly Commitment: $2,088
So your financial freedom is actually $2,088. If you can build a passive income stream that replaces whatever you a re doing to get to $2,088 then you have achieved your financial freedom.
Naturally this is oversimplified. And of course, your financial freedom number will change based on your needs and situation. Once you have achieved a passive income that covers your necessary obligations you are financially free. The next step is to move onwards up to financial abundance which is something that is rarely discussed. Financial freedom is important – but financial abundance is where life really begins to change.
By the way, knowing your financial freedom number is just the beginning. Knowing how to get there is where things really get interesting. If you’d like to come out to one of our events near you go to http://www.MillionaireTrainingSystems.com

Things I learned from a Billionaire that made me Rich
Things I learned from a Billionaire that made me rich (Part 1)
By Douglas Vermeeren
Over the last decade I have had the opportunity to spend time with several millionaires and billionaires. As I made the movies The Opus, The Gratitude Experiment, The Treasure Map or doing research for some of my books I have had the opportunity to extensively grill these financial superstars about how they got to their financial independence. I have learned a lot. In fact, as I have applied many of the lessons that they have shared I have been able to create abundance and financial freedom in my own life.
Several of these lessons have made it into the projects as described above but of course how can you possibly share everything in one project? It’s impossible. Probably the most comprehensive outline of what I have learned so far was published in my book with Jay Conrad Levinson, Guerrilla Millionaire – Unlock the secrets of the self-made millionaire or in my Dummies book – Self-Made Millionaires for Dummies. However even those books are incomplete as there are many things which I learned and continue to learn from these mentors that shape my financial life regularly.
I guess that would be the one thing that we could talk about in this article: The importance of continual learning.
What you learn will always determine what you earn. The bottom line is that if you don’t understand principles about how to use and grow your money you can’t use that principle. I remember sitting once with Frank Maguire, who was one of the co-founders of FEDEX, in a shopping mall having an Orange Julius. As we sat there having a conversation he asked me an interesting question. His question: “What is the most expensive thing in the world?”
HIs answer, “Ignorance. Ignorance is the most expensive thing in the world. Because it costs you money, keeps you from making money and costs you time which is the most expensive thing because once its gone you can never get it back.”
If there is one thing that I have observed more than any other attribute among the wealthy is that it their desire to understand and learn everything they can about the issues they are involved in.
I once sat in Bill Farley’s living room and observed this situation first hand. For those who don’t know Bill he was the former CEO of Fruit of the Loom and at one time an owner of several other companies and brands that most people would know. Brands like Anaheim Citrus, Acme Boot Co., and at one time was a partial owner of the Chicago White Sox baseball team. So we were spending some time in his living room when his assistant along with a few team members came in to discuss a few pressing business issues.
They asked him a few questions which most people would have simply answered and moved on. But that’s not what he did. He took a moment and talked with the group gathering their thoughts, expertise and opinions. Now armed with all the facts and possible solutions which they had brought forward he rendered a decision.
That day I understood that the best way to create wealth in a company was to be sure to use your assets which included the brains of those around you.
In my personal business dealings with him I found that he always operated in a similar way. He would always have other experts involved in gaining answers to areas where his experience was limited. Every effort was focused on gathering insights before an action or decision was taken. But having said this I want it also to be clear that in no way did he, or anyone else I observed doing this, ever take a long time to make a decision. They never became victims of analysis paralysis or over analytical processes. They quickly gathered what they needed to know and then pulled the trigger and got it done.
Surrounding yourself with the right people is a powerful way to learn. Naturally this can be done by attending classes, seminars, networking events, charity events, fund raisers and gala events where you have access to new mentors or coaches. These kinds of activities or events are also brilliant locations to meet people who are interested in creating the same financial situations that you crave.
It may be tempting to say that you a re broke and that you can’t afford a ticket to attend such events. However, I have found if you only stick to the least expensive events you will only be connecting with others who are broke. In order to make friends and form relationships with those who you can learn from, you have to go where they go. And a $10 breakfast meeting generally won’t do it.
Not too long ago I had lunch with Bill Bartmann. You may know Bill, he was featured on the cover of Forbes magazine in 1997 as one of the 400 richest men in North America. At the time Forbes estimated his wealth to be between 2.4 and 3.5 billion dollars. As we sat down he simply ordered a burger, fries and a coke. One of the best lessons that he shared with me over our lunch was to always invest a portion of my income back into developing myself and learning as much as I could about my industry and business.
Money comes to those who understand it and value it most. Innovators become wealthy. But you can only improve on what you already understand. It’s like learning how to play basketball. You can’t do a trick shot until you’ve learned to dribble. Basics come first. And one of the reasons so many people are broke is that they haven’t even gotten a grasp of the basics.
So get learning! Learn everywhere you can and from everyone you can! Put a plan in place to start dedication a portion of your income to growing yourself and your bank account. The more you learn the more you will truly be able to learn!
