Ok, like most people I was born.

Then I went to school and bought into the work hard, get good grades philosophy.

So, I was a bit of a brain box at school.

For me at that time it was all about getting to university.

I was the first person in my family to do so and everyone was proud. Especially my nana.

I left university and moved down to London to work as a computer programmer.

Short version. I had three jobs over the next 4 years.

And I was fired from each one.

One the third time, a friend suggested I travel the world.

So I did. Certainly parts of it.

Had a great time and when I came back to the UK, I moved in to being a self employed programmer for a few years.

I then headed back to Australia and met Ed Strachar on a 3-day diving trip.

He introduced me to NLP and Tony Robbins.

I was hooked by how the mind can influence the results we experience in all aspects of our life.

It became an obsessive study. Books, seminars, and pure “work with anybody who would let me mess with their mind”.

I built an NLP business. Lots of fun.

And a huge learning curve on how a business works. Or doesn’t!

We lost everything and started again.

I’m still learning.

Building businesses fascinates me still.

Psychology and understanding why people make the decisions they do amazes me.

I spent a few years helping a friend of mine promote a property investment seminar.

He gave me a presentation . I rewrote it based on what I know about influence.

I generated over a million pounds in the first 12 months.

Psychology rocks!!

During this time I also built a property portfolio using other peoples credit ratings. As my own sucked!

My understanding of influence again became the cornerstone of my success in property.

I started looking at the internet as an entrepreneurial opportunity.

Which lead me into affiliate marketing.

Initially I dabbled in many things.

And quickly discovered that adding value mixed with the key skills of influence allows you to generate an extraordinary income.

And beyond allows you to create assets.

In 2014 I met a unique entrepreneur, whose credentials include building 4 multi-billion dollar businesses. That’s billion with a B.

I appreciate not everyone has someone of his ability to talk to, which brings us to today, where I can share what I’ve learned and discovered.

Here’s what I know.

There are a finite number of problems which humans face.

And every problem you face comes down to 3 things. Either…

• A values conflict – sometimes called inner civil war. Does your inner dialogue pull you in multiple directions?
• A belief conflict – Are your beliefs allowing you to unleash your real potential?
• A strategy conflict – Is your current strategy getting you to where you want to be, in the time frame you want, with the resources you have available to you? Probably not.
