I was sitting with a very close friend of mine having breakfast, and the conversation turned to our visions for our businesses. He asked me what I was working on. I told him that I was working on filling 3 mastermind groups for my Happy Millionaire Mastermind Community of business owners - who are creating more wealth, success, and happiness in their lives and businesses. 

I asked him the same and he shared his. 

The content of the conversation turned to why we want to create what we want to create. So we moved to how we each create our visions for our future.

Over the last few weeks, I've talked extensively about the importance and the criticality of getting really clear about what you're looking to create in the future, in your wealth, your success, and your happiness.

Today, I want to give you my top three tools for getting clear, but first I want to tell you that the wealthy, successful, and happy people I work with are not too proud to use these tips and tools. Some of the unsuccessful people that I have worked with in the past – who said they wanted more success – weren't willing to humble themselves and to be “uncool” and use some of these tools.

I want to advance the conversation about the art and science of creating wealth, success, and happiness. Last week in my blog and in my video, I spoke about how unsuccessful people – people to who struggle to achieve and accomplish anything – focus on studying their craft. And, people who are wealthy, successful, and happy – who have accomplished something significant in the world – focus on the art and science of creating wealth, success, and happiness.

I’ve worked with small business owners who struggled to create results, success, and wealth in their business and in their lives.

I've also worked with small business owners that were self-made and created massive success and massive wealth in their business, which fueled and enabled them to create massive success and massive wealth in their lives.

Let's talk about my three favorite words in the entire English language – wealth, success, and happiness.

I say these words over and over every single day because these three words, I feel, are our birthright as human beings. The only reason we wouldn't possess wealth, success, and happiness is if we're resisting them and pushing them away, and we don't understand them at a very granular level.

So, I want to provide my very elementary, very simplistic definitions.

We've been walking through my seven Prosperity Principles. When put into place, these principles will create more wealth, success, and happiness in your life.

We've covered Prosperity Principle #1, which was about accepting yourself, embracing yourself and knowing your talents and desires, and then reaching complete self-acceptance.

The past few weeks, we've been covering my seven Prosperity Principles. These are the principles that, when put into action, will help you create breakthrough levels of wealth, success and happiness in your life.

We're on a journey of covering my seven prosperity principles, which,  when put into action, will create more wealth success and happiness in your life from ease, not from struggle or stress.

The first prosperity principle we covered was self-acceptance – embracing who you are, fully understanding your purpose and diving head first into the life that you were born to create.

Over the last few weeks, we've been on a journey of walking through my seven prosperity principles, and today we're going to discuss Prosperity Principle #4.

First of all, I want to recap…

We're on a journey to walk through all seven of my prosperity principles and today we're going to talk about Prosperity Principle #3, but first I want to recap what we've already done.

Prosperity Principle #1 is about knowing yourself, embracing yourself, accepting yourself – your talents, gifts, desires, purpose, and destiny.

So we're on this journey of covering my seven prosperity principles. If you haven't connected to my new book, The Prosperity Principles, I would encourage you to do so. You can buy a copy here. It's an awesome book. It's about the seven accelerators to growth that I’ve experienced in my life and not just growth but breakthrough growth.

Authenticity is your key to unlocking powerful states of wealth, success, and happiness. The more you embrace yourself, the more you’ll be, do, and have. Accepting, embracing, appreciating and respecting yourself is the greatest gift that you can give to humanity and the greatest creator of prosperity there is known to man.

My zone of genius is organizing loose concepts into an organized structure so that you have an easy path to follow to create results. What’s your zone of genius? In this video I share my seven Prosperity Principles which will unlock new levels of wealth, success, happiness, and freedom in your life and business.

Who you surround yourself with absolutely matters. You become who you are around, so choose wisely. In this video and blog I tell the story of how happy millionaires helped make me a happy millionaire.

The single greatest shift you can make in your life and business to create more success and happiness is to shift from your own survival to serving the greater good. My business focus shifted from “what’s in it for me?” to “what’s in it for them?” and “how can I help the greatest number of people solve the problems in their lives?” That is when I shifted from a self-obsessed focus to a service-based focus.

I wake up every single day to create more success and happiness in my life. Because of this, I get to share that success and happiness with the world. I get to help other people create more success and happiness in their lives and businesses as well.

I would encourage you to disconnect “wealth” and “happiness” in your mind, because they aren’t connected. They’re not married. Wealth does not create happiness.

There’s a difference between miserable millionaires and happy millionaires. The difference lies in how they approach three aspects of life.

Are you living a life of passion, where you are excited about every aspect of your life, or are you settling? Are you living soul out or living a life of compromise? Success, happiness, and freedom only come from living in your passion and living a life that you get to not that you have to. Make a commitment to yourself to create true prosperity; health, wealth, and powerful relationships. Choose to have it all.

Let’s be honest, we all just want a little more success, happiness and freedom in our lives. The only reason you don’t have it is because you feel like it’s not available, but it is. If you dread any part of your life, that is not success. If you dread your health, wealth, and the power of your relationships, you have some work to do to define what success means to you and begin moving toward it.

Do you feel you need to accept and embrace stress in order to be successful? It’s just not true. See it through this lens instead. Success is based on service, impact and making a difference in the world. It’s bringing our total essence – talents, gifts, vision, desires, all the best of us – to the world and truly making a difference. Stress is only a signature in your body that tells you you’re going the wrong way.
