The CAR…..as simple as four wheels, combustible engine, steering wheel, seats. It wasn’t just an improvement on the horse and buggy, as primitive as it was compared to today’s cars.
Henry Ford is famous for saying “If I had given them what they wanted, I would have just given them a faster horse”
But that’s not what he did; Fords brilliance was to say….“If I want to go from point A to point B and if I was willing to forget everything I know about transportation with a horse and buggy, how would I do that?” and he completely skipped from walking to riding in an automobile, skipped over the whole concept of hooking a horse to a wagon. You see for years the world was stuck on the horse and buggy; big buggies, carriages, one horse buggies, four horse buggies and the passenger buggies. And Ford was willing to say, “If I were to completely scrap the existing method, how would I go about it?”
Point being, this is exactly what Brent Payne and Shane Krider did when they started Liberty League International. They looked at what was out in there in the marketplace and said “You know, that’s not going to work”; “All those things over there…those are designed for people that want to wait five to ten years down the road to become wealthy” and those other business models “No, that’s really designed for people who want to spend their time convincing people that they want to buy products every month” and so on. What Brent and Shane have put together is light years ahead, a simple business that’s designed for one type of person, the person who wants to play big in life and wants to get it done today, that’s who Liberty League is designed for.
So if I were to forget everything I know about network marketing and the other forms of business models; Liberty League is simply free enterprise in its most purest form; plain and simple. It’s a direct sales business with a built-in referral system. If you were to go outside of the home based business world, where people don’t understand the language, as far as, team building and you were to describe what we do to a realtor or someone in manufacturing the best way to describe it would be a direct sales business and it has a built-in referral system. It’s a drop ship business where you simple receive orders and then you pay the company to fill the orders. That’s it. It’s a simple business where we run an ad, when people respond and they sound like their more interested in becoming wealthy then working at a job, we invite them to listen to our presentation conference call. Someone else does all the explaining for us, a top earner in the company at that; then we have a follow up conversation where we bring someone else on the line to answer their questions. Customer buys the products, we get paid. Simple as that.
This is a business of putting people on presentations and collecting decisions and at the end of the day, I’m simply just a tour guide. I’m not convincing anyone to join and I’m not engaging in debates or overcoming objections (tip: if they have objections, they’re not a prospect – they’re happy where they are, they want to stay where they are)
So when you take a fresh look at what we do….to earn a substantial amount of money and allows us time freedom…. most of this business is delegated to someone else in the company. I don’t do the presentations or answer questions from my guests. My involvement is not only to be in receiving mode, but being the leader. When I show up in my business, whether it’s returning phone calls or answering questions for someone else on my team, my key role is that I’m being the leader myself. That’s the key, keeping it simple and being the leader.
I picked up this personal development magazine this pasted weekend and there was an article about a man who walked into a restaurant and a customer walks up to him and says “Hey Jack, the coffee always tastes better when you make it. I love when I see that you’re working, because I know the coffee is going to be great!” and Jack was sort of confused about this, because he was telling a friend…”everyone here makes the coffee the same way, it’s an automated machine, we fill the water to the line and all the coffee comes in pre-measured packets, we all push the same button, the water always comes out the same temperature, so how can it be that he thinks my coffee tastes better?” Well here’s the thing….Jack always washes the pots out before he makes coffee and he always uses the freshest packs of coffee and he doesn’t leave the filters dripping over the pot, dripping bitter water into the coffee. In other words Jack’s being the leader; Jack’s taking ownership of what he’s doing. He was making coffee just as simply as anyone else, but it wasn’t what he was doing, it was how he was doing it, it was who he was choosing to BE. And that is the metaphor that I’m taking on to my business today.
This business is as simple as making coffee. We run ads, we have conversations and we put people on presentation calls, then we bring a third party on the line, probably someone not even connected with the sale, they knock out a couple of questions, they’re either in or out or they’ll want to think out it, whatever, they’ll end up listening in on a Friday morning wake up call and make a decision one way or the other. And here’s the thing, the only variable in this business is me and the only variable in this business is you. We’ve all got the same system and when you really look at it for what it is; this system is really simple and we could over complicated and convolute it, but the fact is that anyone could use this compensation plan to reach their financial goals.
So it’s about our level of belief and our own willingness to show up in our business as the leader.

Wealth is an Option for ALL of US
The purpose of this posting is to make wealthy living a reality in your life and to help increase your net worth.
Are you ready to enter into the mindset of abundance?
If you learn the secrets of the wealthy and really apply it to your life in your path to freedom, you can triple your income, net worth and time freedom in less then a year.
Wealth is the freedom to BE, DO, and HAVE anything you want without money being an issue.
What’s amazing is that the secrets of the wealthy are simply disciplines that are practiced by people who have learned to play the game of money very well.
The wealthy understand that you have control of over three things in life:
The thoughts you think; The images you visualize; And the actions you take.
Realize that almost everything you want in life has already been achieved by someone else. And their achievements have made it possible for you to realize that you want the same for yourself.
But no matter what you want….a person with $10 dollar thoughts will produce $10 dollar results…..and a person with two hundred thousand dollar thoughts will produce two hundred thousand dollar results and the same holds true with a person with million dollar thoughts will eventually get million dollar results and everything they want in life.
So you see, you have to develop the seven “path to freedom” characteristics of the wealthy:
The wealthy have a burning desire;
The wealthy believe they are worthy of receiving wealth,
They believe they can get wealth;
The wealthy are passionate about the service they provide for the wealth they receive;
The wealthy take action in the face of fear;
The wealthy learn quickly from their experiences;
And the wealthy are very persistent.
The wealthy understand that if you want to get from where you are to where you want to be, you have to take some calculated risks and invest wisely.
The wealthy invest in the following order of priorities:
They vest for cash flow; Income streams; They leverage their time, money, and expertise in the efforts of others.
The wealthy use the tax laws to their advantage to decrease their taxable income. The wealthy also use capital gains to buy low and sell high for profit.
Unlike to the average investors, the wealthy investor wants to invest his money in an asset, get his money back, keep control of the asset, invest his money on a new asset, get his money back again and repeats the process.
One of the main reasons people do not get what they want, is because they haven’t decided what they want. Decide what you want!
When you share your vision, certain wealthy people want to help you make it happen; they’ll introduce you to friends and resources to make it happen.
Every time you share your vision for wealth, you strengthen you own subconscious belief that you can achieve it.
Once you commit to becoming wealthy, your laser focus will not allow you to constantly worry about other people, what they think, because you’ll be too busy following your own burning desire.
Working hard is not the key to producing wealth. Wealthy people work a lot less than poor people do. If you’re only working for money, then you will soon discover that money is not enough of a reward. It’s a resentment of wealthy people that keep many people poor.
The secret to wealth is how to take charge of your mind; learning how to program your mind with affirmations and eliminating negative thoughts about money.
Wealth begins when you create a relationship with money that is simple, comfortable and free from stress. You have to reach a point of being in control of your money. This is the beginning of the personal development program to will prepare you to become the kind of wealthy person that you would like to meet and spend time with. You’re now beginning to take control of your future.
You should expose your mind to new ideas and view points about money and wealth regularly.
Ask lots of questions and consider the possibility that your past thinking could be wrong. Realize your current lifestyle is a result of your past thinking. If you’re working for someone else, the secret to increasing your income and preparing for future wealth is acting like you own the company. Getting wealthy starts at work!
Pay yourself first. Invest in your retirement account. You need to pay yourself at least 10% of your income. If you’re not paying yourself at least 10% of your income, then you’re clearly living above your means
If you pay yourself 15% of your income, you can become rich.
If you pay yourself 25% of your gross income, you can become wealthy.
You must believe that you deserve to make an extraordinary amount of money. How about five times your income? This will help you begin to become uncomfortable with your current level of income.
The reason so few people are wealthy is due to the limiting beliefs that were past down.
This is the best time to have ever been alive, we have knowledge at our fingertips and affluence in America is on the rise.
Abandon the conventional way of think and allow yourself to start believing you deserve an extraordinary income.
Your actions have to reflect your thoughts.
You will never be free, if you say you deserve wealth and abundance, then do the opposite and act as though you don’t deserve it.
True wealth can be at any income, because you are more than your money, more then your job, title, house or your car
True financial freedom first begins in your mind, in your conscious, in your thoughts and in your actions.
It takes very little money to make money, as long as your patient and discipline to do the following things:
You need to BE, DO and HAVE!
That means be wealthy in your own mind; Do the things that will bring you wealth.
And believe you should have the wealth you desire.
Your imagination, your thoughts and your dreams create your reality.
If you’re open to wealth, then opportunities to create and acquire wealth will descend upon you.
The universe is infinitely abundant to those who are open to receiving.
The universal law of attraction states that you will experience whatever you are thinking about long enough and deeply enough.
So the wealthy exhibit responsibility with their abundance of money.
They earn money, they invest their money, and they invest to increase their net worth
And then their philanthropy, you see philanthropic activities are similar to “paying your dues” for occupying the space in this life.
The only way to permanently change the temperature in the room, is to change the thermostat – in the same way, the only way to change your level of financial success is to reset your financial thermostat.
You will be pay in proportion to the value you deliver according to the market place.
You see money is neither good nor evil; money will only make you more of what you are.
The habit of managing your money is more important then the amount.
Wealthy people see every dollar as a seed that could be planted to earn a thousand more dollars, which can be planted to earn a million more dollars.
The only time you’re actually going toward wealth is when you’re uncomfortable with you income or net worth.
Wealth is a game of follow the wealthy leaders. Identify several wealthy mentors that you admire and follow their lead.
There are three fazes to wealth and the path to freedom.
You want to be wealthy; You choose to be wealthy; And you commit to be wealthy.
Wealthy people focus on opportunities.
Wealthy people only associate with positive and successful people. Wealthy people choose to get paid based on results. Wealthy people focus on their net worth and Wealthy people constantly learn and grow.
This information may be new to you, so it will take repetitive exposure before it becomes a natural part of your way of thinking.
I wish you a life of freedom.
