What Keeps You Awake At Night?

As I write this I’m in a cramped plane with no first class, flying from Jacksonville to Atlanta.

The flight attendants are grumpy, the sandwich I had to buy for a month’s mortgage payment was nasty, the 300lb guy beside me snores, and I’ve got the only non-working T.V. on this plane.

We took off an hour late and I had to miss one of our arena football games for which I had great seats in Jacksonville where the weather is in the mid 70’s and you can actually see the sun.

So why am I telling you all this? Actually there’s a couple reasons.

First, I thought it might arouse a little sympathy to assist me in feeling sorry for myself and I know you can probably relate.

Second, it’s just another example of a bad day that would put some people in bed with a bottle of sleeping pills and enough negative ammunition to bitch about it for days.

Do you know people who spend their lives criticizing, condemning and complaining? I hope you’re not one of them.

The truth is all this crap slides off my back quickly and certainly doesn’t keep me up at night. Can’t say that for most folks. When I close my eyes I’m out within minutes. And only my bladder awakes me in the morning. There aint much gonna keep me awake at night and God knows there’s plenty that could.

Why?

Because I’ve developed alligator skin form 45 years of being in business and being lied to, cheated, stolen from and manipulated to the point where I expect it until proven differently.

The whole world is full of crap!

I believe little anyone tells me until it becomes reality and the more they beat their drum, the more I know it’s gonna turn out badly.

If you expect people to actually do what they say and don’t prepare yourself if they don’t, you’ll need a lot of medicine to get through life because you’re disappointments will overtake you and turn you into sour, miserable person to be around.

The only way you can get tough enough to handle whatever cards you’re dealt is to take enough punches to develop the alligator skin. Most can’t handle it.

What keeps you awake at night? If it’s a major problem to you, it’s probably a very minor problem to all those who’ve conquered it before you.

Is it worth the stress?

Many people currently face credit loss or bankruptcy or loss of assets and are on the edge, worried about what people think.

Well, losing money, credit and assets is a temporary thing easily fixed with focus on increasing revenue and who give a rats ass about what people think.

If you want to find out who your true friends are, bankruptcy will clean house like laundry detergent. The blood suckers will scatter like cockroaches and good riddance to them.

It’s likely you’re better off without all the junk in your life anyway and anyone can have their credit cleared in 6-9 months. Sometimes we all need a good tsunami to clean the slate so we can dejunk our lives.

THIS I KNOW!

If you spend your time and energy increasing your income to the point where you can’t spend it all, the crap you worry about will be insignificant.

Income cures stress…UP YOURS!

But Ron, I don’t know how.

Yes you do. You know at least ten different ways to make a lot of money already. If you need ten more, get your butt in my Fast Track To Wealth and my Quick Start Real Estate School. They’re all about income.

Picture yourself with $50,000 a month in income in your personal bank account. You tell me, how could it change your outlook on life? I bet past due bills wouldn’t keep you up and you’d care less what your dufus relatives and friends think.

Yes I know, easy to say huh? Yep, it is, but you’d be amazed at how little 50k a month is if you put yourself in an environment where many are making much, much more. Hang around the people who are doing well and having the times of their life and get away from the dream stealers.

Every year I pay big money to attend four mastermind groups and several events where people congregate who make more money than me.

A couple of them are Glazer Kennedy events they do twice a year. DanKennedy.com. I pay 28k for one mastermind group but any one member could give me just one idea at one meeting to make me many times that amount. Already have after the first meeting.

Our boot camps are full of six and seven figure earners.

You only need one plan to get you there with the steps mapped out and implemented with realistic expectations that people will fail, it’s harder than it seems, things will go wrong and shit happens.

If you’ll let us, we can help you with the plan and the implementation. It will cost a little money and create a little uncomfort. We can do with real estate or internet marketing and several other ways, but it does require a little help and commitment from you. Is that too much to ask?

I’m sure you’d answer no.

Really? Then why haven’t you taken the plunge? What exactly will it take to make you conclude it’s a stupid business decision to try to do anything without the proper training to create a valid plan? Yet that’s what most will do.

If cash flow is an issue—sorry but it’s your own fault.

If your mind is overloaded with issues ruining your health, it won’t fix itself.

Some Day We Must All Turn And Face The Tiger Or Become Its Lunch.

If life’s going well for you and this entire message is off base, give it to a friend in need and pat yourself on the back. But before you get too cocky, just how stable is your cash flow? Is it all from one source? DANGEROUS!

I took a 90% reduction in cash flow in one year because too much was from one source. It’s incredible how fast things change. Which many people have discovered lately.

It hurt, I had to adjust, it sucks. I complained to anyone who’d listen. And it didn’t change a thing.

I got it up before it came down so I’ll get it back up again far beyond what it was and the total experience forced me to learn new things and do different stuff than I used to.

Will it keep me up at night?

NO!

Just another day at the office.

Peace,

Ron
