Are you ready to learn how to be successful in life without going to college?

Don't get me wrong. Knowledge is power, but obtaining that knowledge from an academic institution isn't necessarily a predictor of success.

In fact, studies show that while less than 20 percent of college graduates leave campus with a job, a staggering 80 percent leave buried in debt.

The great news is that you don't need a piece of paper to succeed in life. It is possible to create success, on your terms.

Success is a mindset.

Do you know what Steve Jobs, Bill Gates and Richard Branson have in common? All of them dropped out of college and went on to become wildly successful entrepreneurs. I'm not saying that you cannot achieve success with a college degree. Nor am I condemning education altogether.

It all depends on what it is that you want from your life. If you aspire to be a doctor or a lawyer, then education is a must. However, if you are going to school solely to become an entrepreneur, I would think twice about learning about the business world from a textbook. It may not be the most ideal option.

It's okay if you don't resonate with school. You aren't alone. Ever since I can remember, I struggled in school. It never made sense to me. If I can be brutally honest, I found it to be a waste of time. The subjects didn't stimulate my mind. From an early age, I realized that I wanted to create something that was mine. I didn't know what that looked like, but I knew that I wasn't going to find it in a classroom setting.

I decided to go out into the world and build knowledge through taking action. Instead of reading textbooks I was hustling and building my brand around the clock. I'm living proof that you can learn how to be successful without a college degree. I barely finished high school but have still gone on to create a 7-figure online business and I'm not alone. On top of that, I was able to save myself $100,000 worth of debt.

Here are 5 ways to be successful in life without a college degree.

1. Work Harder Than Anyone

If you aren't going to utilize a degree, then you've got to work harder than anyone you've ever known. There will be a lot of sacrifices that you will need to make. You've got to ask yourself if you are ready for that because nobody is going to come along and create success for you.

Unfortunately, a lot of people get mesmerized by “get rich quick” stories. They want to do important things, but they aren't willing to do the work in order to get there. As a result, they are constantly looking for shortcuts to try to speed up the process. Here's the thing…  there are no shortcuts to real success in life, especially if you aspire to become an entrepreneur.

The most successful people in this world didn't get to where they are today by dabbling through life. Rather, every single day, they hustled to make their dreams come true. The only way to get to the top is to become the master of your life. If you aren't willing to commit the time, energy, and effort that it takes in order to build a successful life, you will always come up short.

2. Master The Art Of Self-Promotion

Selling is an overlooked asset, but it's something that everyone needs to master if they want to be successful in life. No matter what career path you take, you need to learn how to sell yourself and your ideas. Unfortunately, the history of the word “selling” has given it a bad name.

Selling isn't about shoving your business card down people's throats at networking events and telling them all of the reasons why you are the best. Rather, it's about knowing your value and communicating it in an authentic way. If you can't influence those around you, you won’t get very far in life. In order to effectively sell yourself, you have to first think about what your unique value proposition is.

What are your strengths and talents? What makes you stand out from the rest? When you have a solid understanding of who you are and what you bring to the table, you will know how best you can serve yourself and others.

In his book, To Sell Is Human: The Surprising Truth About Moving Others, Daniel Pink said that “The purpose of a pitch isn’t necessarily to move others immediately to adopt your idea. The purpose is to offer something so compelling that it begins a conversation, brings the other person in as a participant, and eventually arrives at an outcome that appeals to both of you.” 

People who have mastered the art of selling are able to effectively communicate their messages in ways that influence people's behaviors. The reality is that when people trust and like you, they will be more likely to buy your products or services.

3. Commit To Lifelong Learning 

If you want to achieve success without formal education then you need to commit to lifelong learning. In today's digital world, consuming knowledge has never been so easy. This has given rise to a huge population of people who have embraced online education as a substitute for an expensive college degree.

In today's ever-changing world, if you aren't growing and investing in yourself, you will get left behind. This is why successful people make learning a part of their everyday lives. I have always had a passion for learning, so much so that I've invested hundreds of thousands of dollars into my personal growth and development. Reading, attending seminars, listening to podcasts, and taking online courses are a core part of my life.

By adopting an attitude of curiosity, I am constantly approaching the world and my work with an open mind. A neurological study has shown that curiosity makes our brains more receptive to learning and that as we learn, we enjoy the sensation of learning. It's important to point out that learning means nothing unless you do something with it. Don't get stuck in the trap of analysis paralysis. Instead, the moment that you learn something, put it into action immediately.

4. Find A Mentor

One of the keys to building a successful life is to amass a team of mentors who have been where you want to go in life. I am a big believer in the power of mentorship. One of the reasons why I've been able to accomplish so much at a relatively young age is because of the mentors and coaches who have supported me along the way.

When you leverage the expertise, knowledge, and experience of a mentor, you shortcut your success. By learning from the failures and mistakes of others, it ensures that you don't have to go down the same road. This is the most intelligent way of achieving anything of value in life.

A lot of people make the mistake of trying to figure things out by themselves. In my experience, this is not a smart way of working. Anybody I know who has achieved massive success in life without a college degree didn't get there on their own.  Instead of letting their egos get in the way, successful people are always open to learning from others.

It's important to remember that being mentored requires that you add value to a mentor and actively invest in the relationship. You need to give as much as you get. To quote Sheryl Sandberg, “We need to stop telling [young people], ‘Get a mentor and you will excel,’ Instead, we need to tell them, ‘Excel and you will get a mentor.” All of my mentors have become mentors to me through some form of shared experience.

I've done this through actively putting myself in environments where successful people hang out. Never forget that proximity is power. By meeting other like-minded people, you will be in a better position to build relationships that will support your personal and professional growth.

5. Become A Pro Networker 

We all know at least one person who has the perfect elevator pitch, who is a master influencer, and who is able to work a room like a pro. While these people are admirable, they can also be extremely intimidating. Networking is a topic of conversation that makes a lot of people uncomfortable. I completely understand.

When I first got into the world of entrepreneurship, I felt extremely awkward attending networking events and talking to random people. It was even harder for me because I suffered from extreme social anxiety. Interacting with people used to make me feel physically sick. However, I knew that if I wanted to be successful in life I had to overcome this fear. I decided that I needed to actively put myself in environments with people who were smarter than I was.

Don't get me wrong… there's definitely a sense of comfort that comes from surrounding yourself with people who are further behind you. However, real growth doesn't happen inside your comfort zone. Being a successful networker means that you are able to fearlessly drop your ego at the front door, and with an open mind, approach people who have achieved great things.

Networking is not about meeting strangers and having forced conversations. Rather, it's about building strong relationships with people that are mutually beneficial. Your social capital is one of the most important assets when it comes to creating success in life. Networking with like-minded people has allowed me to expand my influence in ways that I never thought were possible. Porter Gale said it best – “Your network is your net worth.”

If you didn't know how to be successful in life without going to college, now you do.

Nоt еvеrуоnе іѕ ѕuіtеd for соllеgе and that is OK. Thеrе іѕ nо shame in deciding tо vеnturе down another path in life. Just because someone graduated from a top college, it doesn't necessarily mean that they will go on to achieve success. In today's ever-changing world, you need to constantly seek new ways to grow and expand yourself if you want to stay current and be known as someone of value. A piece of paper offers no guarantees.

It is possible to join the long lіѕt of people whо hаvе achieved massive success wіthоut a еxреnѕіvе соllеgе education. At the end of the day, it all depends on what you want in life. Nevertheless, no matter what path you choose to take, I encourage you to be a learner for life. In my experience, life always offers you way more lessons than school ever will.

I want to share with you why you will fail (and what to do about it). Have you ever wondered why you aren't achieving your goals? It all comes down to your mindset.

In my opinion, there has been too much focus on teaching people how to set goals, and less attention on how to actually achieve them. Don't get me wrong. Setting goals is important, but a goal means nothing unless you actualize it.

When it comes to achieving their goals, unfortunately a lot of people end up hitting a roadblock, and their motivation comes to a standstill. This is referred to as a plateau. 

At this point, it’s common for people to give up. This is why you will fail (and what to do about it). Are you ready to learn how you can commit to mastery and achieve the goals that you desire?

Oftentimes, when people encounter a plateau, they start to dabble, which starts a negative cycle of procrastination, discouragement, excuses, and laziness. This is why you will fail.

Eventually, this process is repeated and the cycle continues. I call this process the pyramid of pain, because that’s exactly what it creates. People stop believing in themselves because of the pain associated with their failures.

There is only one reason why you haven’t achieved your goals in life. You stopped – believing, trying, growing, learning, and taking action.

The difference between someone that is successful versus everyone else is that when things get tough, they don't stop. What do you do when you hit a plateau?

Everyone hits plateaus on the road to achieving their goals. It’s called life. However, the good news is that there are things that you can do in order to get past them quickly. Commitment is essential for achieving any goal in life, and the only way to achieve your goals is to commit to mastery.

Rather than seeing their goals through, a dabbler jumps from one thing to next, because they struggle with the shiny object syndrome. As a result, they never master anything in life. This is why you will fail! But committing to mastery is what you can do about it. 

You don’t master something by reinventing the wheel. Rather, you learn and model the behavior of someone else who has achieved the same result that you are after. This is the best way to accelerate the process of achieving your goals.

The dabbler tends to give up when things get tough, because they don’t have access to resources that will allow them to break through the plateaus that are holding them back.

Alternatively, the master looks for a mentor or coach who can help them anticipate the plateaus that are going to occur so that they can take the necessary steps in order to avoid them.

Sure, you will still hit plateaus, but when you do, it won’t set you back to the beginning, because you will have someone there, helping to put you back on track.

Don’t be a dabbler. Commit to mastery. Be resourceful, learn from the best, and do something every day that moves you closer to what you want to achieve in life. Don’t let anything or anyone hold you back.

In the words of Napoleon Bonaparte, “Victory belongs to the most persevering.” Once you start moving towards your goal, don’t stop. It could mean the difference between success or failure.

Today I have an AWESOME success story for you. It's truly inspirational. This Romanian power couple makes $100,000 PER MONTH on Amazon. Are you ready to learn how they built a profitable business selling on Amazon?

While at the Amazing Selling Summit event this past year, I had the pleasure of interviewing Peter and Adina, a couple from Romania.

Their journey to success started with the ASM course, which then led them to build a successful Amazon business.

Peter and Adina's experience has inspired so many people in their home country of Romania to take the leap of faith and start their own Amazon businesses! Watch below to find out how they did it.

Here is a sneak peak of my interview with Peter and Adina. This Romanian power couple makes $100,000 PER MONTH on Amazon:

How did you get started with ASM and what has your journey been like since then?

We started our Amazon business three years ago. We were inspired to do so after we received an email from Robert Kiyosaki, whose email list we are a part of. We didn’t speak any English before starting ASM. We had big dreams and we were only living on one salary at the time. We started to watch Matt and Jason’s videos, but we could only understand a few key words. We immediately knew that this is what we had to do. We learned English and went through the ASM course, using Google translate. We had no money at the time, so we borrowed it from someone so that we could take the course and purchase inventory. We borrowed even more money to come to the Las Vegas event, and then immediately after attending the event, our business started to grow very fast!

Your story is so special because there are people all over the world that may not speak English and wonder if it’s even possible to start an Amazon business. What was the turning point for you? Was it your belief that you could really do this and be successful at it?

We wanted to change our lives and we believed in our dream. Before starting our business, we always wanted to do big things and have an impact in the world. We knew that there was something inside of us. We looked for the opportunities, and when the ASM course appeared, despite the language barrier, we knew that we had to do it in order to fulfill our dreams. When you have this feeling, the barriers no longer exist, and you just jump in and do it.

What kind of success have you had with your Amazon business?

We make 5x more money in our Amazon business than I ever made with my job. I (Peter) had the courage to quit my job and focus on our business, full-time. After making that decision, our Amazon business grew fast. We attended ASM meetings, workshops, and then we grew, 10x more. We now make $100,000/month.

What a life-changing experience. How does it make you feel today, looking back at where you used to be versus where you are now?

It’s fantastic. We have the freedom to do the things we want to do. This business gives you the freedom to do what you love everywhere. You just need an Internet connection. It has changed our lives and we have the feeling that we are living the life that we always wanted. We have time for kids, we travel with our children, and this is amazing for us because we started with nothing. Before, we only had money for surviving, and now we have a beautiful life. At the beginning, we were most concerned about covering our basic needs, but then our business grew bigger and bigger, so much so that now we focus on helping others. We have a group of 80 people in Romania who have now started Amazon businesses, and we help them to change their lives. It’s more like our mission. We don’t do it for money because we have more than we need.

What advice would you give to someone that wants to start an Amazon business, but is in a similar position that you were in when you first started?

The first thing is to know what you want, put it on a vision board, and visualize your dreams. Secondly, attend an ASM event. You can have the best strategy out there, but without mentors and the courage to follow through with it, it won’t work. You need to connect with people who have been successful on Amazon, and then in turn, you will be successful as well. Put yourself in successful environments.

Anything is possible. If we can do it, so can you. It’s just a matter of what you have in your mind. We have been educated to have a poor mindset, but we changed that by educating ourselves and believed in the possibility of financial freedom. If you know what you want in life and believe that you will be successful, then everything will happen for you at the perfect moment. Write down what you want, and the Universe will help make your dream a reality.

I want to share with you 5 ways to get motivated. Motivation is the energy that inspires you to set and achieve your goals. It is one of the most important predictors of success in life. Without it, results are impossible.

Anything of value in life requires an immense amount of commitment, hard work, patience, and sacrifice. In other words, the most successful people in the world persevere, despite pain and discomfort. 

Can you think of a time when you felt like you were in a slump and had zero energy to do anything? If so, you aren’t alone. Even the most motivated of people can feel unmotivated at times.

Motivation is power; it gives us the ability to shape and create our destinies. Tony Robbins said it best, “Change is never a matter of ability; its always a matter of motivation.” What motivates you to work hard and achieve your goals?

Motivation is the foundation of all action in life. Getting motivated can be challenging at times, which is why having success strategies in place to support you will help make the process more manageable. Below are 5 ways to get motivated:

1. Create A Vision For Your Life

Motivation becomes strong when you have a clear image of what it is that you want to achieve. Pursuing my goals doesn’t require motivation. Why? Because I have a clear vision for my life.

Take a moment, go beyond your current state of living, and visualize what your ideal life would look like. Imagine the type of environment you live in, the partner that you have, the experiences you are having, and the type of work that you are doing.

There is no right or wrong. All that matters is that your vision motivates you. At the end of your life, what matters most is not what you acquired, but who you became. Don’t settle.

2. Find Your ‘Why’

Your ‘why' is your purpose; it is what inspires you to get out of bed every day. You need to determine the reasons why your vision is important to you.

For example, let's say that you want to build an online business. What is your ‘why' for wanting to do that? It could be to experience freedom, to be your own boss, or to be able to take care of your family.

Whatever your reasons are, they are what will pull you towards the accomplishment of your goals. When you find your ‘why', use it to channel your motivation.

3. Adopt A Learning Mindset

In an ever-changing world, the single best investment that you can make in life is a lifelong commitment and curiosity for learning. Lifelong learners are motivated to grow because they want to.

Read books, watch videos, invest in training programs, attend seminars, workshops, and networking events – these environments will give you the motivation to make things happen.

For example, if you want to build an online business, read books about people like Warren Buffett, Richard Branson, Sam Walton, and Elon Musk. The stories of successful people like this will inspire you. Investing in your learning is one of the best gifts that you can give yourself.

4. Find a Mentor or Hire A Coach

The best way to harness the power of motivation is to surround yourself with people who have high standards and who are achieving great things in life.

In his book, The Power of HabitThe Power of Habit: Why We Do What We Do in Life and Business, Charles Duhigg suggests that the people you surround yourself with can play a role on your habits and behaviours. 

Find a mentor or hire a coach who can motivate and hold you accountable. I have many coaches and mentors in my life. These people have helped me achieve my goals faster. In the words of John Crosby, “A mentor is a brain to pick, an ear to listen, and a push in the right direction.”

5. Fall In Love With The Process, Not The Results

The most successful people in the world understand how to shift their attitude about the journey, so that the process towards achieving a goal is just as fulfilling as actually achieving it.

In order to attain mastery, you need to fall in love with the process. A lot of people want to achieve success, but they aren't committed to taking the steps in order to get there. If you only attach yourself to the results, your motivation will dwindle.

Carl Rogers said it best, “The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.” Learn how to fall in love with the learning process, because that is where the magic happens.

I hope these 5 ways to get motivated have inspired you to master motivation and find the drive that you need in order to achieve your goals. Are you ready to take your motivation to a whole new level?

I have some exciting news! Warren Buffett has revealed his best investment advice. Known to be worth $75 billion dollars, he is one of the most successful self-made investors in the world.

Warren is a role model for any entrepreneur, investor, or business person that aspires to achieve financial greatness. Referred to as, “The Oracle of Omaha”, Warren Buffett had an entrepreneurial mindset from an early age. As a young adult, he was always looking for innovative and creative ways to earn money, which is how he made a net worth of $6,000 at the age of 15.

Many of the most successful people in the world attribute their success to sheer determination and commitment to their goals. While this speaks true, Warren Buffett offers a different perspective. Although the end goal of success usually equates to making money and getting rich, it isn’t what matters most in life.

You may be wondering, “How does one man become so successful?” The answer may surprise you. Are you ready to learn how to invest, the ‘Warren Buffett way?’

Warren Buffet believes the single best investment that he ever made was a lifelong commitment and curiosity for learning. In his own words, “Invest in as much of yourself as you can, you are your own biggest asset by far.”

When Warren Buffett was young he was terrified of public speaking. He wanted to master this fear, so he attended a Dale Carnegie public speaking class that ended up changing his entire life. Even to this day, he has his public speaking diploma hanging on his wall in his office.

You never know how one book, course, or seminar can change your entire life. Live with that positive anticipation that there is always something good that will come from having an optimistic mindset.

Chris Munger, the Vice Chairman of the Buffett’s Berkshire Hathaway Corporation, once said this about his colleague:

“Warren Buffett has become one hell of a better investor since the day I met him, and so have I. If we had been frozen at any given stage, with the knowledge we had, the record would have been much worse than it is, so the game is to keep learning.”

If you want to become the best that you can be, you need to adopt the mindset of a lifelong learner. I attribute most of my success in life to my love of learning. It has brought so much joy to my life, and it has allowed me to grow and evolve my online business at a much greater speed. If you look at my May 2017 Monthly Goals Report, you will see how much I invest in myself.

Who I am today is vastly different from the person that I was many years ago. I was a shy, depressed, insecure teenager who was broke and struggling, BUT I was committed to investing in myself.

If I wanted to master all areas of my life, I knew that I had to stop doing what I had always done. I found mentors, read books, attended seminars, went to workshops, and created networking events, all with the purpose of learning. I realized that what one man can do, another man can do.

Finally, Warren Buffett also believes in the power of investing in an index fund, otherwise known as a type of mutual fund with a portfolio constructed to match or track the components of a market index, such as the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500).

From a historical standpoint, the stock market has always gone up, no matter what is going on in the world. The beauty of index funds is that they allow you to own 500 of the biggest companies in the U.S. There is no better way to create a simple plan for building your retirement savings.

How much time and money do you invest in yourself? The reality is that the more you learn, the more you earn. When asked to reflect on Warren’s success, Charlie Munger said, “Warren is one of the best learning machines on this earth. The turtles who outrun the hares are learning machines. If you stop learning in this world, the world rushes right by you.”

If you are already investing in yourself, awesome. If you have yet to start, I hope Warren Buffett’s investment advice has inspired you to do so. It all starts with you.

There is a HUGE difference between an abundance mindset vs. scarcity mindset. The path that your life takes depends, in part, on the mindset that you adopt. You can choose to either view the world as abundant or scarce, but they cannot co-exist.

The abundance mindset flows out of a deep inner sense of personal worth and security. It is a paradigm that is grounded in the belief that ‘there is more than enough’ for everyone. Alternatively, a scarcity mindset is the belief that there will never be enough, resulting in feelings of fear, stress, and anxiety.

In his book, The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People: Powerful Lessons in Personal Change, Stephen Covey explains that when you live in a world of scarcity, you compete for available resources, even when there is an abundance of them. What type of mindset do you ascribe to? One mindset will imprison you, while the other one will set you free.

Are you ready to learn how to create an abundance mindset so that you can be unstoppable in every area of your life? CLICK HERE to join my Life Mastery Accelerator program!

I am a firm believer that if you choose to adopt a character that is rich in abundance, you will become a master of your life. The beauty of life is that at any given moment, you have the power to change your life. If you choose to make the mental shift, from a place of scarcity to one of abundance, you will transform your entire life.

I am living proof that this works. Years ago I possessed a scarcity mindset and it negatively impacted me on a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level. Once I made the decision to change my mindset, and walk the path of abundance, great things started happening.

I’ve observed a lot of people in my work and in my life that are consumed by a scarcity mindset, so much so that it holds them back from living to their full potential. In particular, I see a lot of examples of people that have incredible external abundance, but that live in a state of fear.

They have a lose-win mindset, which says that, ‘there is only so much pie to go around, and if you get some, there will be less for me.’ Adopting this mode of thinking only results in a life of fear, stress, and anxiety.

Below are 3 differences of an abundance vs. scarcity mindset:

Take a Risk vs. Play it Safe

Those with an abundance mindset understand that in order to grow, you need to get out of your comfort zone and take a risk in order to achieve their goals. They welcome change and see it as an opportunity to grow and expand. Those with a scarcity mindset are fret by fear. They think small and avoid risk at all costs. 

Plenty vs. Deficit

A person with an abundance mindset believes that there is always more of everything in life, whether that’s money, relationships, resources, opportunities, etc. Alternatively, someone with a scarcity mentality lives in fear that they are going to lose their time or money. Because they believe that there will never be enough, they are in constant competition to ‘stay on top’.

Positive vs. Negative

A person with an abundance mindset focuses on the limitless possibilities that exist in life. They choose to think in positive terms about everything that happens in life, good or bad. As a result of this way of thinking, they attract amazing experiences and opportunities into their lives. Alternatively, someone with a scarcity mindset always dwells on what isn’t working in his/her life. They adopt a victim mentality and blame others for their failures, instead of taking responsibility for their actions.

These are some of the differences between an abundance vs. scarcity mindset. Do you think you are suffering from a place of scarcity or abundance? If you are living from a scarcity mindset it’s time to make a shift. How? Start with your beliefs. Focus on giving more, whether that’s your money, your time, or your love.

For example, one of my rituals involves giving. I do a lot of philanthropy work that inspires me to live from a place of abundance every day. The more that you give, the more you will receive. Another option is to take a leap of faith and hire a coach, find a mentor, or attend a seminar or event that will inspire you to change your mindset.

Allow for more abundance to flow into your life. If you do so, the end result will be life mastery. William James said it best – “The greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being can alter his life by altering his attitudes of mind.” When you adopt an abundance mindset, your life will change forever.

People have a huge impact on your life. Are your friends holding you back? A great way to find out if they are is to write down the qualities of the people that you spend the most time with. Do they support you in the achievement of your goals? Do their life choices inspire you? Do you feel happy when you are in their presence? If the answer to these questions is no, then it’s time to find new friends.

If you want to achieve success in life, you need to surround yourself with high vibe people that inspire and elevate you to live in alignment with your highest self. We all need an empowering ecosystem – a group of positive, successful individuals that are focused on growing and expanding in every area of their lives. There is an old proverb that reads, “Show me your friends and I’ll tell you who you are.”

If you choose to surround yourself with negative people, not only will they drain your energy, but their negativity will also rub off on you. Alternatively, positive people are those that challenge and inspire you to grow and elevate your game. Are your friends holding you back?

It’s not always comfortable being around people that are smarter and more successful than you. However, it is a good thing because it helps you to raise your standards, and challenges you and inspires you to grow. If you aren't growing in life, you are dying. This is why the most successful people in the world have made it a habit of surrounding themselves with people that push them to step out of their comfort zones and achieve their goals.

I cut out anyone in my life that is negative and not supportive of me, because I know how easily these types of people can drain my emotional and mental energy. I have achieved so much success in my life is because I consciously choose to surround myself with like-minded people who are on the same path as I am, which is personal growth and development.

There is no reason for you to spend time with people who bring you down or who aren't supportive of your choices in life. Steve Jobs said it best, “Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice.” Are your friends holding you back?

I would like to share with you three tips for attracting positive, high vibe people into your life:

1. Let Go Of Negative Friends

The first step in finding a new tribe of positive and successful friends is to be true to yourself, which means letting go of friends that shoot down your ideas and aspirations in life. You have to eliminate the wrong people from your life before the right people will come in. It’s time to cut the ties and let go of toxic friendships. Stop sacrificing yourself and your happiness for others. It is only holding you back. In a study out of Wayne State University, researchers found a 58% higher variance in happiness in participants, attributed to the quality of close friendships in their lives. Choose wisely.

2. Be Open To New Experiences

If you want to attract successful people into your life, you need to be willing to take chances and put yourself in environments where you know inspiring people hang out. Go to seminars or workshops, attend meet-up groups, or join a mastermind group. These are all great ways to network with like-minded people. The question is, “Are you willing to take advantage of these opportunities?” Michael Dell, CEO and Founder of Dell Inc., gives this advice about finding people who are smarter than you:“In professional circles, it's called networking. In organizations it's called team building. And in life it's called family, friends, and community.”

3. Hire A Coach or Find A Mentor

The best way to get ahead in life is to learn from someone who has already achieved the success that you aspire to. A coach or a mentor is there to help you, to inspire you, and to show you that anything is possible. Richard Tirendi, CEO and Co-founder of VisionQuest says, “If you're the smartest one in the room, you're in the wrong room.” Most of the successful people that I’ve been able to surround myself with are coaches, mentors, or mastermind groups that I’ve paid to be apart of. Don't be afraid to invest in yourself. It is one of the best return of investments you can make. It is your message to the world that, “The value and potential that I possess, is important enough to me that I’m going to give it the energy, space, and time to grow and create results.” 

Do everything in your power to surround yourself with positive people. In the words of Jack Canfield, “Make a conscious effort to surround yourself with positive, nourishing, and uplifting people – people who believe in you, encourage you to go after your dreams, and applaud your victories.”

The secret to true success and happiness if to find your life purpose now.  If you are still trying to find out what your life purpose is, that’s OK. Keep looking, and don’t stop until you find it.  The question is, “How do you find it?”

Part of the problem is the concept of ‘life purpose'. The lofty idea that we were each born for some higher purpose can be overwhelming for many people. Purpose is about finding your authentic self, and setting the intention to live in a way that honors whatever it is you find.  It’s called your ‘why’. When you come alive from within, that is when you know that you are living from a place of authenticity.

The father of Positive Psychology, Martin Seligman expressed that, “The meaningful life is about finding a deeper sense of fulfillment by using your strengths in the service of something larger than yourself and nourishing others.”  Find your purpose now.  The world is waiting.

At 17 years of age I was lucky to find my purpose and calling in life, which was to grow and to give. I have devoted my career to inspiring others to live extraordinary lives and fulfill their potential as a human beings.  Finding your purpose is about listening to an inner calling.  In Let Your Life Speak: Listening To The Voice of Vocation, Parker Palmer says that we should let our life speak to us, not tell our life what we're going to do with it.  Unfortunately, a lot of people look for a career before they listen for their life purpose.

I want to share with you three actionable steps that you can take in order to find your life purpose now:

Step Outside Your Comfort Zone

The desire to play it safe is comforting, but this isn't where real growth occurs. Comfort is the enemy.  At first, growth can be a place of discomfort, but eventually it turns into a place of possibility.  The reality is that you only find your true purpose in life when you take a leap of faith and escape from your comfort zone.

This is where we learn, expand, grow, and reach our full potential.  Karen Salmansohn said it best, “The best things in life are often waiting for you at the exit ramp of your comfort zone.”  This is where the real magic happens. Find your purpose now.

Drop From Your Head to Your Heart

Your heart is one of the best tools at your disposal to access your purpose in life.  One of the main reasons why so many people never find their purpose is that they over-think it.  Your head makes everything messy.  Drop into your heart and ask yourself, “What most excites me in life?”

When you live from your heart, you are guided in a way that serves your highest self, and in turn, your mind will follow. Alignment is the key to finding your life purpose.  Rumi said it best, “Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love.”  The result? Ultimate freedom and abundance.

Find a Coach/Mentor

The reality is that nobody achieves success by themselves, which is why it is so important to surround yourself with like-minded people who inspire and support you along your journey.  One person or word of advice could forever alter the direction that your life takes, but you have to ask for help and be resourceful.

Join a mastermind group, hire a life coach, or find a mentor that can motivate you to find your ‘why.'  Life is full of teachers who are there to support you in the realization of your purpose, BUT it is up to you recognize them when you appear. In the words of Shawn Hitchcock, “A mentor empowers a person to see a possible future, and believe it can be obtained.”

Don't strive for a job or a career. Think bigger. Strive for a life of purpose. In the words Mark Twain, “The two most important days of your life is the day you were born and the day you find out why.” I challenge you to rise up and find your life purpose now!
