Wealth creation follows after some principles which when applied appropriately will lead to the accumulation of mammoth wealth. Being poor is like being afflicted with a disease, although one that can be cured. Poverty is therefore like a disease that is curable if the necessary actions to cure it are applied. One action, in point of fact one secret that can be applied to move you from the state of poverty to that of opulence and affluence which you crave like billions of others is however available. That secret is none than the Neuro Associative Conditioning (NAC) principle or program.

Neuro Associative Conditioning (NAC) is a six step principle or program used by Psychoanalysts in making behavioral changes in human beings. This principle could be used to make any behavioral change even those that have taken years without any result. With the NAC principle, the user develops more choices that are enjoyable and empowering. The NAC principle can be used to quit smoking, quit a negative relationship and even build wealth which is the subject of our discussion here. The principle can be applied to achieve the desired result in these six easy steps.

Step 1: You should decide whether you want to be rich and build wealth or not. If you are presently poor and want to create wealth, you will have to make that decision to eliminate poverty now. By making that decision you have identified what you want. You should therefore ask yourself questions as to what is preventing you from building the wealth that you want and what you must do to create the wealth. Once you make that decision, you therefore have a goal to move towards. If you focus on that goal of wealth creation, you will find out ways of achieving the goal.

To find out what is preventing you from reaching your goal of wealth creation, you start asking questions like:

Is it because I am not persistent enough that I have not been able to accumulate wealth?

Is it because I do not deliver enough service that I have not been able to create wealth?

Is it because I am not passionate enough about what I do to make a living that I have not been able to create wealth?

Questions like these will help you identify the limiting or disempowering habits that have contributed to your present state of poverty. These disempowering habits have provided you pleasure in the past and that is why you have imbibed them; consequently they have contributed to your state of poverty.

Step 2: Get leverage. You will have to associate massive pain to not changing now from your present state of poverty and associate massive pleasure to changing now to a new state of affluence and wealth creation. Identify the benefits you will derive from building wealth. Such benefits will enable you change in a minute from the state of poverty to that of affluence, something you have been unable to do for years. The following benefits could encourage the change:

• Creating wealth and being rich will enable you live the kind of live that you desire.
• Building wealth and being rich will enable you marry the girl of your dream.
• Being wealthy will enable you live in the house of your dream.
• Being rich will enable you travel anywhere you desire in the world.

The list is endless. Once you are able to identify the benefits you can derive, changing then becomes easier.

Step 3: Interrupt the limiting or disempowering pattern or behavior. You will have to end and consequently break the limiting habits that have aided your state of poverty. For example, if you have not been passionate enough about what you do for a living, break such a habit. Break other limiting habits like complaining in the face of adversity and not setting goals. The more outrageous your approach to breaking the limiting habits the more effective.

Step 4: Create new and empowering alternatives to the disempowering patterns or habits. Our failure in life to finding alternative ways of getting out of the pain of habits encouraging poverty into the pleasure of habits encouraging wealth creation is the major reason why our efforts at wealth building is temporary. If however you are not sure of how to create the empowering alternatives, simply model after or emulate people who have been able to build wealth. People like Paul Getty, Donald Trump, Robert Allen etc, etc.

Step 5: Condition the new pattern or alternative habit until it becomes consistent.Conditioning is the best way to make sure a change you have created last for a longer time and becomes more permanent. The simplest way to condition is therefore to repeat the empowering pattern or habit again and again. You should therefore practice the empowering habits that encourage wealth building like being passionate about what you do for a living, going the extra mile in whatever you do, service delivery etc, etc. Once the conditioning is consistent enough, you will have to reinforce it by giving yourself an immediate reward.

Step 6: Test all your conditioned patterns of behavior and habits that encourage wealth creation and see whether they work or not. The conditioned pattern that works you should embrace it while you reject the one that does not work.

If you muster a set of strong enough reason to build wealth and become rich, you can change from being poor to creating mammoth wealth by the next hour even if you have been poor for years.

Your financial plans for retirement may be personal, but bringing your plan to your business makes good sense for you and your employees. Owners who offer an employee plan tend to save more personally and have larger and more successful businesses, according to the Frontwater Capital’s Retirement Study. In addition, the benefits are more than just financial: Owners with personal retirement plans reported that they feel more prepared for retirement than do those without plans.

The new retirement

Integrating business and personal financial plans is all the more important for owners who rely on their businesses to fund their retirements. The study found that more than 80% of business owners plan to work in some capacity, either in their current careers or in a new area of work, and almost half of business owners want the freedom to cycle between work and leisure. For them, retirement is an opportunity to make a lifestyle change, such as returning to school, starting another business, traveling, creating a nonprofit or spending more time with family and loved ones. To fund these aspirations, owners may draw on income from their business or continue to work in a part-time capacity. As a business owner, you have the freedom to make these kinds of decisions.

Personal advice leads to business advice

Most owners naturally think of their own retirement needs first and their employee’s retirement needs second, but the strategy you use to provide for yourself can also outline the plan for your business. Because so many of the investment vehicles used to fund retirement cross over to both realms, owners are often pleased to find the process of setting up a business retirement plan easier than they previously thought.

Implementing a retirement savings option helps both employer and employee. Not only do employers feel better about retirement if they have a plan in place, but employees report retirement plans as among the most important benefits a job can offer. The study also showed that while employers often assume that their employees cannot afford to contribute to a retirement plan, small-business employees generally earn higher salaries than do their counterparts at large corporations.

Chart your course

Because many of today’s business owners are baby boomers, they may live a good 25 years or longer in retirement. This makes retirement planning increasingly important. Think about these key questions as you consider your options:

•    How do I envision retirement for myself and my family? Do I want to continue working or do I want to travel, dedicate myself to nonprofit work or spend more time with family and friends?
•    Should I plan to sell my business and use the proceeds as a source of income?
•    Would it be wise for me to flow profits back into the business for growth and expansion, or should I use these funds to build a retirement plan?
•    If I’m thinking about selling the business to fund my retirement, when does it make sense to build a succession plan or have a business valuation?
•    Do I have sufficient cash to handle employer contributions to my firm’s potential retirement savings plan?

Many entrepreneurs start their businesses to gain freedom and control of their personal and private lives. Luckily, you have the same freedom and control when it comes to retirement planning. You are in the driver’s seat when it comes to formulating retirement plans that best fit your needs, the needs of your business and the needs of your employees.

How can you get the tax breaks for creating wealth and other advantages of large companies and true investors?

Basically, creating wealth is about being less selfish or greedy and instead giving more and being more generous.

Let me clarify: the more jobs you are able to create, the more housing you’re able to provide, the more resources you’re able to develop and bring to market, the more products you’re able to offer, the more people you’re able to serve and lives you can affect, the more you will stimulate the economy and the bigger a person you must become.

However, those that are too greedy and selfish – those that continue to demand more and take more and think only of themselves or their family while contributing less and less – will continue to pay more and get more penalties.

This is why we have our current financial crisis: too much greed and not enough generosity. One of the #1 rules of the Rich is that they don’t work for money. When you work for money the Fed takes your moneythrough taxes, inflation and retirement plans. (That’s why it’s gone…) If you do not have basic money skills (to develop assets that produceincome and cash flow, thereby creating wealth), then you have no choice but to work for money and again the Fed will take it from you. So if you want to get richer you have to be more generous. Help more people so they can become better off and the better off you will then become.

Here’s an example: someone who goes out and buys a rental home often times believes that simple act qualifies them as an investor. They believe that one unit in and of itself – qualifies them as an investor. But that one unit does not meet the above definition of a true investor, of being generous. You may have invested money, but you are the one who really benefits from it, having not created many (if any) additional jobs so it fits into more of the selfish or greedy range (but hey, you’ve got to start somewhere – just realize you need to scale-up to really make a difference and really begin creating wealth!)

The fact is that once you’re truly being generous and providing housing for many, many different families – once you have acquired around 1,000 units for example, then you become a true investor.

Realize you are rewarded for being generous and providing more housing which impacts others more than it does you, requiring demand for more jobs to service those units, provide utilities, landscape them, make repairs, etc. As a reward for your generosity, significant tax benefits and better debt financing becomes available to you as well. So as you can see, it pays to be generous.

Many of us encounter financial difficulties because we’ve not taken the time to closely look at our finances or learn new ways in which we can better our financial position – whether it’s saving or increasing our savings, investing or starting up a business.

We apply many of the strategies passed down to us either from parents or friends or those we’ve created ourselves and many of these ideas may not have enhanced our financial status. They may have done more harm than good and only after a period of bad decisions and careless spending that we begin to look at how we can change things in our lives.

So how can the formula for success, R=IOT, Repetition = Imprint Over Time, help us to identify where we’ve erred in our financial decisions and what changes we could make to enhance our financial growth? Follow these actions steps to make a financial difference.

Spending

Spending money unwisely leads to the effects of having insufficient funds. If this is a habit, then making small changes in your purchasing habits could make the difference between having that extra money in your pocket and not having any at all. Look at some of the things you’re actually spending money on and make necessary adjustments to increase your financial standing. Repeating this will definitely leave its imprint over time.

Instead of paying full price, wait for the sales

If you’re used to shopping for clothing at full price, unless it is absolutely necessary, look out for when the sales are on and make your purchase then. The time will come when you will be able to make the purchase at full price without adversely affecting the amount of money you have.

Patience is a virtue – wait for the right price.

When you rush in and pay the full price on a garment, you may later find that the same garment went on sale and you could have purchased it for half the price. Make it a habit to watch out for the sales and know when a sale is going to be on so you can be there early enough to get the best quality at a money-saving price.

Buy better quality

Instead of buying cheap to save money, spend the extra dollar or two. It will save you more money in the long run. For example, you decide to make a purchase for $1.00 thinking that you saved yourself some money by not spend the extra $5.00 to get the better quality product. But a day later, the $1.00 item breaks and you’ve got to go back and purchase the same product again, not to mention the gas, time and effort wasted. The quality of the product was not great so you find that over time you’ve spent more money trying to save the extra $5.00.

Budgeting money

If your habit is to spend more money than what’s coming in, setting up a budget and keeping tabs on what you spend, as well as getting into the habit of spending that which is within your budget and saying, “No” to certain items will get you on track financially.

Avoid credit card purchase if possible

Don’t do – Avoid using your credit card to make purchases you can’t afford and know that you cannot pay back within the specified time frame.

Do instead – Purchase items with cash if possible and if you use credit card, pay them off as soon as possible to avoid paying interest.

Avoid the herd mentality

Not because your friends are buying something or it’s the latest fad mean you have to have it right now, especially if you’re financially strapped. This mentality can set you way back financially. And by the way, your friends or store wouldn’t be able to help you bail out. You may not be popular but you wouldn’t be stressed out either. Your cool friend might be coming to you looking for a loan later on.

Saving

If you make saving a habit, you’ll find that you’ll have more money to do the things that you desire to do – start a business, make an investment and it opens up opportunity for more options.

Bob Proctor’s book, You Were Born Rich, shows a great break down for saving and growing wealth – see the chapter on Me and Money – pg. 29. Read the entire book as it provides great information for you to implement to change your financial situation.

Changing financial habits as with anything else does require some discipline but these small changes can make the difference to create that imprint over time and enhance and transform your financial situation no matter how bleak the situation may look right now.

What financial habits do you struggle to break? What small steps could you commit to doing that will make a difference in your financial situation?

Everyone wants to get rich quick, and those that operate ponzi schemes take advantage of this human trait. With this type of scheme, a con artist takes money from people by promising them they will make a good return on their money. However, instead of actually investing the money, the con artist simply keeps it himself. When the investors want their money back, the schemer pays them with money from newer investors until the fraud falls apart.

There are many ponzi schemes attempted by fraudsters. Some are almost honest in telling you it is a ponzi scheme (some cash gifting programs and other pyramid schemes may fit into this category). Others will tell you they are investing your money in something when in reality it is just a fraud.

Here are some signs that the ‘investment’ the person is offering you really may just be a fraud:

1. The person is extremely enthusiastic about his ‘investing opportunity’ but short on details about the actual investment. They may tell you it is confidential or a secret system. These are all red flags. If the opportunity is so great, he should explain why it is profitable.

2. The investment promises extremely high returns. They will often promise 50-100% returns within a year. This is near impossible (especially to guarantee) and it is a clear red flag of a scam.

3. The person is targeting any investors, though he may act like you are ‘special.’ If you were hand selected, they should tell you why it is you were approached in contrast to anyone else.

4. The person shows you examples of past clients who have had success. This means nothing. The clients could be paid actors, or they could be earlier investors simply paid off with later investors money. Any investment should work because the investment is good, not because random people claim they have made money for some secret reason.

You are not alone if you would like to learn how to go about creating wealth in your life.  Many people feel the same way.  The desire to have more money is very common and the fact is that only a small percentage of the population will really ever achieve this goal or outcome.  Statistics peg it at less than 5 percent.  So,  what should you do to make sure you are among that 5 percent?

1.  Do not just wish for wealth.  Wishing for it does not make it happen.  And the people that do this will often find that the more they continue this pattern of wishing for riches,  the further away that they seem to get from their desired outcome.  Do not make this mistake.

2.  Learn how money is attracted. There are certain ways that you need to be able to think abut finances and this will ensure that you become magnet of sorts for what you want.  And of course,  that is to have more money.

3.  Save and invest.  If you fail to learn anything else about creating wealth or developing a plan to get rich,  make sure that you save and invest whatever money that you already have.  Failing to do this is akin to being the grasshopper who goes out and plays while the squirrel gathers nuts for winter.  Tomorrow will come and you will need to have the financial strength to see it when it does.

Follow these three tips and you should be on the right path to creating a wealthy life for yourself.  Remember that it is not enough to just wish to be rich.  You have to take action!

Freedom and liberation are the main thrust of what matters and is significant in our world. That is why the greatest percentage of our active life is targetted and applied towards freedom and liberation, particularly economic and monetary liberation. In these days of economic recession, nothing could be more apt.

No one is entirely free until he or she is free economically. An understanding of this and the realization that there are potentials to be harnesed for your economic freedom will spur you on towards pursuit of economic freedom. One of your biggest pursuits should be to be economically free. Why? Quite simple. Because the rich rules over the poor.

God has released His grace for prosperity and economice freedom for us. All we need to do now is to tap into that grace for our economic liberation. In II Corinthians 8:9, the word declared “For ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich.”

To be economically free, you must engage in business, backed up with the grace of God.

But what is business?

The Oxford Advanced Learners Dictionary defines business as THE ACTIVITY OF MAKING, BUYING SELLING OR SUPPLYING THINGS FOR MONEY. Inevitably therefore, you must have an enterprise that you are engaging in for the purpose of economic generation.

To engage in any business venture and remain in it, suceeding, apart from a host of others, you need you principal qualities, viz;

1.) Passion

Passion is defined as intense, driving, or overmastering feeling or conviction. A strong liking or desire for or devotion to some activity, object, or concept. Merriam-Webster

To succeed in any business venture therefore, you need drive towards it. I encourage you to locate what you are passionate towards that could lead to economic freedom for you.

2.) Zeal

Zeal is defined by Merriam-Webster dictionary as eagerness and ardent interest in the pursuit of something. It is similar to Passion

So, let’s look at how to plan and start a business.

Since business ultimately is about making money and making profits; and since money is usually given in exchange for goods and services rendered therefore, to plan and start a business,

1.) You Must Discover the NEED

- Problems and Problem Areas could be a way or a source to step into business line.

- What are the needs in your area?

- What are the needs that are observable, that you can see or perceive?

Several years ago, a close friend could not secure employment after his college degree. Having tried several openings and written a number of job tests and yet none of them resulting in his employment, he asked himself some critical questions. What is the perceived need in my environment? What am I qualified or trained for? How much do I have?

After assessing himself he discovered he had just $0.30 left with him.

In answering the question of the need, he observed that there were several high school leavers that were in need of personal coaching classes in order to pass the qualifying examinations into the university. And since he was a graduate of mathematics/statistics he got to work immediately with the $0.30 he had.

He got a desktop publishing centre to do an artwork (poster) advertising his about to start coaching business, made a number of photocopies and distributed. Naratting his experience years later, he declared that that day alone, he got about 5 clients. From that time onward, there was no looking back from one level to another. As I write this article he’s already married, from a business that began with $0.30.

What are the needs that you can observe? Do you mind starting small? Think about these.

Cheers!

Seasoned traders of the online share market experience a win-win situation no matter the market volatility. This very market volatility creates a panicky situation for unseasoned investors because they actually witness losses rather than rewards. Wise traders in the Indian scenario always look for opportune moments; they make the most out of their investments in the NSE market as well as BSE market when fluctuations exhibit at a fast pace.

Effective strategies do give shape to your trading goals. As beginners, your strategies may not bring the desired results but you will soon pick up with time. Devise other strategies in turns based on research and market knowledge and in no time you will be able to create a place for yourself in either the NSE market or BSE market or both. Your strategies should be devised in sync with market volatility. Many a time even experienced traders find it difficult to understand the constantly changing market conditions and stock technical analysis too proves to be a failure.

You can make enough money beyond expectations in the online share market with proven strategies. To test your trading plan by following the ‘trial and error’ method even though thorough research and knowledge gives you confidence, you should start with small investments. If your strategy works, i.e. if you are able to reap gains it will mean that you have devised the right strategy. Test at least in four to five investments. If you are a winner in only one and loser in four, you will have to change your strategy. Investors who have already made their mark with NSE shares and BSE shares did not succeed initially. It took them some time but they stuck to their goals and have been able to make lakhs and millions of money from the online share market.

How can you expect high returns with low risks? This is the question often asked by many investors. Books have been written on this topic and market experts and analysts, who have been watching the market closely for years together, witnessing big rises and big falls, do provide tips. But, do these solutions provide an answer to your question? It is a partial ‘Yes’ and partial ‘No’!

NSE shares and BSE shares floated for trading constitute assorted sectors. So, if you are planning for long term investments of NSE shares in addition to short term investments, taking into account the sectors these shares represent is equally important. A particular sector may exhibit a rise for some time and fall the other time, showing mixed results. There are counted few sectors that show consistent rise with little falls. Go for NSE shares and BSE shares of those sectors that are witnessing positive growth. Of course, not a single sector can maintain growth for years together. Fall during some time is certain. But till the rise is maintained, you can reap immense profits. Do consider the growth records of the company you are going to invest as well to be on the completely safer side.
