Would you spend $5000 for an answer?

Hey there!
I have a question this morning about how you do math.
You answer is tell you quite a lot about why your struggles.
Small Warning:
The question may or may not involve some computations, critical thinking and
some level of awareness.
Are you game?
Ok...here we go.
Let's pretend for a moment that you pay $5,000 and spend a day with me for an actionplan consutation.
In that time...
We create a plan, implement it and you get an an extra $15,000 dollars from your audience while you're sitting here.
Later that day...
Another client pays $3,000 and spends 90 minutes with me...
In that time we craft a plan and she makes an extra $30,000 while they are sitting here.
Here's the question...

Q: Who got the better deal?
#evillaugh #faintsinisterdrumming
As you've probably guessed by now...
It's a trick question.
Because anyone that is asking this kind of question...
Is very interested in "fairness"
And comparison...
Unfortunately...
They're also oriented toward childishness.
Let me explain.
Just this weekend...
At Start The Year Right we laid out the fact that the #1 most important thing...
Is that every decision we make must get us closer to what we want.
This by the way is also one of the fundamental wealth commandments in
the Community Mastery Method™
Every decision you make must get you closer to what you
want...
Notice how there is no mention of what other people get or don't get.
Your focus should be on
How do I use the resources I have to close the gap between where I am and where I want to be as efficiently as possible?"
Again...
There's no mention of what other people are doing or getting because that should NOT factor into YOUR math.
In the scenario above are two separate questions that should be asked:
Question 1: Given where they are at and what they want, combined with their personal preferences did person 1 spend their money and time wisely?
Question 2: Given where they are at and what they want, combined with their personal preferences did person 2 spend their money and time wisely?
Either way...
It has nothing to do with you.
Nothing!
SO...
Unku...Hanti...biko face ya front!
We are handicapping ourselves every day...
By trying to gauge fairness or "quality of deal" compared to what other people are doing or getting...
Instead of focusing on how to allocate our resources toward what we want.
Focus on your personal and economic principles and invest in things that make sense for you get clarity, certainty and to close the gap.
If you are using your time and resources appropriately...
You are winning.
If you are not, you are not. Periodt!
Every time you look at what someone else is getting...
You're getting further away from what you want...
Because you're letting the wrong variables into the equation.
Of course...
You don't have to walk this path alone.
I certainly don't.
There are plenty of opportunities to get extra eyeballs on your stuff to make sure you're doing the right math at the right time.
So get out of your own way...
Hit reply and lets talk.
Till tomorrow...
