My Next Car: Mercedes-Benz SLK

Mercedes-Benz SLK

I’ve been dreaming about an SLK for many years now and the day I’ll be able to purchase my own is coming closer and closer. Especially after watching a film, The Secret. I started using some visualisation techniques like pasting a photo on my wall, and also making it my Desktop background photo. I missed out on a test drive two weeks when I was stupid enough to forget my drivers license at home :-( Well I’m going to do that test drive within the next few weeks. What’s amazing is how frequently I’ve been seeing one on the road. So its a fitting tribute that its the 10 year anniversary of the SLK.

I like the analogy that Tom Leykis uses: A man drives the most expensive i.e. best car he can afford. A man does not grow up dreaming of a Toyota! Same applies to women ;-)

Oh, awesome!

So, what are your main income streams?
I mean, that car will set u back quite a bit every month!

If you would like to share.

My income streams are from creating value for people. Specifically I’m changing my business model from consulting into training and speaking so that I can leverage my secret weapon: my mouth ;-)

Cool :)
Yes, that’s definitely a nice weapon to have.
Have you always been a good speaker?

What does “creating value for people” mean?

I’d be willing to bet that you will soon be able to own your dream car. You would do great as a motivational speaker or spokesperson.

If you want to fast track your road to riches try starting up your own religion or politcal party!

Hey David

Creating value is an attitude of first giving someone something thy need that does one of the following three things:

1. Removing or Reducing Dangers
2. Capturing Opportunities
3. Reinforcing Strengths

When you do these three things you create value for your clients and others around you. And as you create more and more value people will provide you with bigger and bigger opportunities that can be directly or indirectly financial in nature.

I love your ideas regarding income streams, and that you’re able to use your skill to train people using your great lanuage skills. You deserve your success. I think I understand – don’t keep it a secret – if you’ve got it share the knowledge.
