The business success secret you are about to learn is probably the best one you will ever use. It’s powerful, easy to implement, and produces immediate, in-the-moment results. Better yet, I can guarantee less than .01% of your competitors know about it (and if they do, they’re probably not using it).

Ready?

The secret is “love your customers.”

Yes, it’s true. The secret behind my own success in business, and that of so many people who are at the top of their fields is to send loving thoughts to everyone you interact with. You might be thinking, “Certainly he doesn’t mean everyone.” Oh, yes I do. Even the most disgruntled customers can be converted to adoring fans when you employ this secret genuinely and consistently.

You know how all of the gurus tell you success is easy? Well, failure is easy too. In fact, it’s easier. It’s so easy in fact, that people do it every day, every minute, and every second. In setting goals, the surefire way to fail every time is to follow these five easy steps:

1. Lack Conviction
Goal setting without absolute conviction that you can attain the goals you set is never successful. When you begin any endeavor with even a small measure of disbelief, you are sabotaging your goal before you begin.

You’ve read the sales letters, heard the audio sales pitches, and seen the books pushing the idea of multiple streams of income. Gurus of information marketing maintain that you can become wealthy when you divide your efforts and capital into multiple areas. It may sound good at first. After all, don’t all of the financial experts recommend diversification of your portfolio? That’s pretty much the same concept, right? Wrong.

Many of these “get rich quick” programs recommend investing in real estate, stocks, and you own Internet company in order to “maximize” your earning potential. A diversified retirement plan is one thing, but building three separate businesses – and succeeding at all of them – is something else entirely.

A friend of mine worked on the security team for the recent visit by the Dali Lama to Canada. The Dali Lama personally met with each person in attendance. My friend said the energy vibrating from this man was truly amazing.

The Dali Lama also gave everyone a prayer scarf and also a small book of information that he personally autographed for each person. I quickly read the small book when it was shown to me at a house party. There was a question in the book that asked:

Q. What is the purpose of life?
A. To be happy!

So many so called financial Gurus tell you to get yourself on a budget if you are struggling financially. I haven’t taken an actual statistical count but it is probably better than 99% of these guys dole out the advice that you need a financial budget.

What seems odd to me is that most people by the time they retire need financial assistance to support themselves. This would indicate to me that personal budgets or even household budgets don’t work.

Most people look at me funny when I tell them I haven’t had a job in over thirty years. I understand; who wouldn’t think thirty years is way too long for unemployment? Me, that’s who. Me and every successful business owner on the planet.

In fact, I really only had one job in my life, and that was for about one year during my teens. I realized early on that my job, and any job for that matter, was not going to get me where I wanted to go. A job could never give me the income, freedom, and control over my own life that I knew I couldn’t live without.

Consciousness level is always going to be a determining factor on how much money you make as a business owner. Your consciousness is your level of awareness and your level of awareness will determine how much money you will make in your business.

There are many examples of how a higher conscious level will bring in more money to your business but let me just give you a few simple examples of how it can work in my industry. I am in the fire and flood restoration industry and we also do painting and carpet cleaning for residential home owners.
