Monthly meeting – model someone and love what you do
What a great meeting yesterday (Sunday 12th September) with all our graduates. We covered various wealth topics including the fact that in order to HAVE something you want you first have to BE the person who is capable of having these things. This can be achieved by learning how to think like that person. We brainstormed ways in which wealthy people think. If we think like wealthy people and starting doing the things that wealthy people do we will have the things that wealthy people have: BE – DO – HAVE.
One of the fastest ways to ensure this is to surround yourself with wealthy people. And I don’t mean just hang around them in a bar. I mean work with them, if you need to for free. Simon Cowell asked Peter Waterman whether the could shadow him. On a programme about Simon Cowell, Pete described Simon like a ‘dog’ – he would do anything Pete asked him to do. Sounds like exploitation? Not at all. Simon wanted to learn from the best in order to become the best. And the best way of doing that is to add massive value to that person. So if you have any hesitation about asking someone wealthier than you to show you how they did it, simply think about how you can add value to them first. Or ask them what they need.
Our guest speaker for the day was Silas Lees. Silas is an up and coming name in the wealth creation
business. Just four years ago he decided to change his life – he was a student and in a regular job, just like some of you. He got focused, and went to work on his plan. He managed to get mentored by Kevin Green, (one of Channel 4s Secret Millionaires, pictured right) and now runs a very successful property business and has started talking to groups around the UK about how he did it.
I have known Kevin Green for a few years now and we last met at the National Achievers Congress with Robert Kiyosaki earlier this year where he was a speaker and I was the MC. Kevin was a dairy farmer before he started property and land investing.
Silas (below) delivered a first class talk, which our graduates thoroughly enjoyed. It was also inspirational - for 2 reasons.
The first was because he was setting up a bank. Now that is quite inspirational (and that’s an understatement). Apparently the same bank manager who initially refused to fund the venture, because he said that if Richard Branson couldn’t do it then how could they open a bank, is the exact same bank manager who has now had a complete turnaround and is funding the venture. I wonder how they got him to turn around his decision????
The second reason is because Silas pointed out, that while it is important that we work on the mental side of wealth and think like rich people, we mustn’t forget to FEEL as well. In order to get where you want to go you have to LOVE what you do. I thought about this and it just makes so much sense. You will go the extra mile, get to work with gusto, go to more meetings, have more energy and fun if you LOVE what you do.
So choosing something that you love is important. And realising that if you are currently not doing something you love, that you have the power to either change what you do. Remember that you also have the power to change how you think about what you do. You can chose to do either – or both, but remember, you create your reality. You are responsible.
Trading Update
The market in August was very slow. The markets seemed to be heading south and then we had a sudden rally. This gave us better entry points to go short. Our long positions include CWT and AWR.I am still waiting on more of a pull back from silver and gold before I enter again. I’ll let you know how it goes.
Property Tax Liens
This weekend (18th & 19th September), Saen Higgins will be flying over to teach us all about tax liens. This is where you get guaranteed returns of anywhere between 16 – 36% on your investments or the property. Sounds good? It is. The price of the 2 day course and the follow up support is very reasonable. If you want any more information, then call us in the office on 020 8466 9906 or email

Busy weeks ahead
The team have been making preparations for what looks like a very busy few weeks for me – I have a stock market workshop coming up, followed by a week of FREE trading and investing seminars, then the new Wealth Foundation Masterclass (formerly Wealth Workout), and then the new trading strategies intensive. I hope my voice holds out … and if that wasn’t enough to keep me on my toes, I’ll be sharing early news of a new Investment Mastery Product in next week’s blog.
While I pondered my diary and Silas’s words over the weekend, I realised that although it will be very busy – the next few weeks are going to be a lot of fun. Sharing what I know with people who then go and do it for themselves is doing something I love. Especially when I get feedback like this:-
“A very intensive hands on learning experience in an environment that allows for all your questions to be answered without leaving you feeling like an idiot” (Bruce Campbell)
“Marcus makes it easier than seminars because you are actually trading. You practice a few times in the workshop and it clicks. I know I’ll be trading next week because it’s so simple. If I don’t then there is always the follow up support.” (Lionel Jones)
Its a great feeling to know that over the next few weeks I will be teaching people proven strategies that will enable them to create wealth for themselves and their families. I’m ready for it!
Marcus in Peterborough
I am holding a talk in at the Peterborough Property Investing group on Tuesday evening 14th September. If you know of anyone who wants to attend as my guest, please let me know at
