INTRODUCTION
MEET THE LIFESTYLE MILLIONAIRES, A NEW CLASS OF WEALTHY ENTREPRENEURS
W ould you like to wait until retirement to start enjoying your life?
Does the thought of making money while working from a tropical paradise make you want to run back into your cubicle?
Would you like your obituary to read, Employee Number 176505. Never broke any rules. Always asked for permission. Successfully ignored all passions, personal talents, and desire to live an exceptional life. Legacy: N/A.
If you answered yes to any of these questions, please dont spend any more of your valuable fifteen-minute water break allowances reading this book.
If you answered, no to all three questions, you belong among a new class of wealthy individuals who spend their days turning their passion into paychecks while helping others.
They do what they want, when they want, where they want, and with whom they want.
The Lifestyle Millionaire model is not for scammers or those who want to bank and bolt. Its not about compensating for hurt egos or shaming others.
Instead, Lifestyle Millionaires see their financial success as an indication of how many individuals theyve impacted and how many lives theyve revived.
To Lifestyle Millionaires, money means access, it means impact, and it means living their days aligning their precious resources and priorities with whom and what they love.
These are Lifestyle Millionaires. A new class of wealthy entrepreneurs. If this lifestyle sounds like your dream, youre in the right place.
Read on.
WHY LIFESTYLE MILLIONAIRES ARE POISED TO DOMINATE THIS GENERATION
Advice like Graduate, get a secure job, work nine to five until age sixty-five, then retire and do what you love has always seemed worthless in my eyes.
When people justified that this approach was secure, I wondered how they still got laid off. When they told me it was predictable, I couldnt seem to understood why I would work a predictable job I hated simply because it predicted that I would be doing that same painful job for decades to come. When they told me they would rather get paid less than have to go it on their own without knowing how much theyd make, I wondered how guaranteed pennies were more valuable to them than potential millions.
Luckily, now I am no longer the only one questioning such age-old wisdom.
With the rapid advancement of technology, we can connect with people thousands of miles away in seconds, raise our voices to join a global discussion, and discover almost anything we want to learn from the comfort of our very own couch.
With such potential and lucrative payouts, others are joining me in asking why they need to pay their dues before getting paid well, why they need to work bland jobs totally disconnected from their passions, and why they cant make an incredible living changing lives and sustaining their lifestyle from their laptop while sitting on a tropical beach.
It was from these questions that I began my search for a business model that would allow me to:
do what I love
buy what I like
live where I want
make a massive impact and
contribute to society
The Millionaire Lifestyle business model is the answer to that search and my self-made eight-figure income.
I call this book Lifestyle Millionaire because these days it is possible to make a very profitable business starting with only your lifestyle and passion. Look at Starbucks and other Internet-providing cafs. You will find the same people there day after day typing away on their computers or texting on their phones. Is it just because they like the coffee and the atmosphere? Not entirely. Actually, that caf is their office. Many of these individuals, if they are not already wealthy, are building wealth without an office, without furniture, without borrowing money, without employees, and without sophisticated technical skills. They are independent businesspersons, controlling their own time, money, calendar, contacts, and resources.
The truth is, the world today is very different from the world of just ten years ago. You can start with nothing and learn almost anything online. Everyone starts somewhere, and today its as if Google awaits your every request for information. YouTube and Kindle-type e-readers are there to help you, like instructors you dont have to pay. You can literally start with nothing more than yourself, your intelligence, and your passion. That passion is your greatest resourceand you already have it, or the makings of it. My own story will show how you can follow, believe in, and coach others on your passion so that everyone profits.
Life coaching itself is the other part of this opportunity. Coaching will continue to grow as an industry because as stress intensifies its impact on individuals, they will need help and support not only to keep their lives on track and realize their goals but also to find satisfaction and fulfillment in their lives. You will read much more about this tension in this book, but for now it is enough to say that this is a great time to build a coaching business from practically nothing more than a good cell phone.
Coaching as an industry has a great future. Soon it will no longer be considered exotic or only for the rich and famous. It will be as common as personal training is today. Technology will provide coaches with excellent options for coaching their clients internationally, but local in-person connections will continue to be important as technology continues to integrate online with offline. Coaching will be delivered via computers, smartphones, and other mobile devices. Coaching has also outgrown its early dependence on certification. By qualifying your coaching through the outcomes of your passion, you can outpace the competition and become an authority in your field. The online world awaits you. You can start a blog and attract clients as you provide life-enhancing tips to followers. You can publish an e-book on your passion or create a YouTube segment that imparts the know-how viewers crave.
