Finding The Right Mattress

There is a story that I've heard a few times that really assisted me in understanding our business. Suppose I tell you that there is a hotel with 10,000 beds in it. Under one of the mattresses in this hotel is $500,000 that is yours and all you have to do is find it. One more catch is that the hotel is in Tokyo. Would you find a way to get to Tokyo? How many mattresses would you look under before you give up?

That is exactly what our Liberty League opportunity looks like. We know the fortune exists. We've outlined the five steps to success. We Summit advisors demonstrate these steps ourselves. However, we cannot take the steps for you. That is your responsibility. Everyone on our team expressed a desire to change their lives. The goals may have slight variations but all revolve around financial and time freedom. Only with enough money and enough time can any of us achieve our true life purpose.

So how does the story apply to you and your business? Summit Advisors attend the events - Liberty and Summit Conferences. Being present with the community and participating in the conferences is a major key in personal and professional development. I can tell you how much fun Disney World is all day long but you have to experience it for yourself to really get the benefit. So if the mattress is in Tokyo, you have to physically get to Tokyo. So get yourself to the conferences, period.

Now that you're in Tokyo, what do you do? Do you sight see. Do you talk to a bunch of people about how hard it was to get here? Do you complain that you have to find your way to the hotel? Do you complain that no one told you exactly which room the valuable mattress is in? Or do you go to the hotel you were told to go to and get to work? Of course you do. You don't waste time and you don't complain because you were told there was a mattress in the hotel with $500,000 under it and all you have to do is search until you find it.

Some people get tired and skeptical quickly, however. These people may look under 10 or 15 mattresses without success. They start to grumble and say things like, "I don't think the money is really here. What if I came here for nothing?" All the time the half million dollars is just sitting there, waiting to be found.

The truly successful person persists without exception. This means not giving up and staying focused on the goal of finding the money. It is there. It may be under the 5th mattress you look under or it may be under the 10,000th mattress you look under, but it is there. And the more diligent and focused you are in looking, the sooner you will you find it. Stopping and complaining every 5 mattresses or so only delays the search.

Meanwhile, I'm shopping and packing for Acapulco. This is our first time in Acapulco and Ed and I are very excited about seeing many of you there. I hope this analogy helps you see what we have a little more clearly. We are excited to be celebrating our 3rd anniversary with Liberty League at the end of this month. It has been the most life-changing and exciting 3 years ever.

Have a great day. Look under as many mattresses as possible - the treasure is waiting for you.
