Success Leaves Clues

“We are like dwarfs on the shoulders of giants, so that we can see more than they, and things at a greater distance, not by virtue of any sharpness on  sight on our part, or any physical distinction, but because we are carried high and raised up by their giant size.” – John of Salisbury

One of the most efficient ways you can attain financial wealth is by copying an individual who is already wealthy. This is called borrowing success. You are standing on the shoulder of a giant to create your own success. Tony Robbins best selling author of unlimited power said “If you want to achieve success, all you need to do is find a way to model those who have already succeeded.”

People who are successful have natural qualities that make them wealthy. Therefore, it is important that you have a role model of your own. Furthermore, having a successful role model will help you understand that attaining success and wealth is not impossible. With will and determination anybody can do it, no matter the circumstances. It will also help give you a sense of direction and understand what you need to do to reach your own goals.

In this section I will show you how to develop the natural qualities of your chosen role model. The qualities you develop will bring you more success and provide you with the motivation and confidence to achieve what you desire. Equally important, the techniques stop you from  becoming unmotivated and also prevent you from creating excuses. A role model will be your template for success, the more you take on the  natural qualities of your role model the more successful you become.

Another benefit to this is that once you become wealthy and successful people around you will see you as a role model and as a result, you help others improve there own lives. Now in the next section I will explain to the step by step procedure to developing the natural qualities of your  chosen role model. This exercise is a mental process that is very powerful.

The Step by Step Process for Modelling Success

The technique we will be using is called Modelling. This is a powerful mental process that comes from NLP (Neuro linguistic Programming). The principle behind this technique is based on the natural human ability to recreate excellence. As human beings we can adopt the beliefs, physiology and specific thought processes (strategies) that underlie any skill or behaviour.

Therefore you can achieve any outcome by studying how someone else goes about it. Here are the steps to successfully modelling any individual:

• Step 1: Observe your role model
  In this step you will take on the physiology of your chosen role model.You take on that person’s reality,  meaning that you imaging that you are that person. In NLP we call this second position shift.
• Step 2: You focus on “what” they do
  Now you focus on “what” the person does to be successful. When you do this you understand the reason to their actions. You get a deeper understanding to their physiology and behaviour.This process is very easy and can be done by simply  observing that person.
• Step 3: You look at “how” and “why” They do it
  In this step you look at “how” and “why” the person does it. “How” a person does what they  do is based on their “internal thinking strategy” and “why” a person does it is based on their “supporting beliefs and assumptions”. To do this  step you imaging yourself fully as the person. Literally in your mind you become that person, and then you ask yourself “what would I do  now that I am role model?” Very soon you will start getting answers on the steps you need to take.
• Step 4: Analyse and find the difference that makes the difference
  Here we find the essential steps that make your role model successful. You pinpoint the essential qualities of your role model that produce consistent success.

Now you have to ask yourself these important questions:

• “What are the behavioural patterns that produce success?”
• “How did he/she achieve the results?”
• “What did they do different from a person that is not successful?”
• “What is the difference that makes the difference?”

Once you have the answers to these questions you can then move on to step 5.

• Step 5: Design a step by step method to learning the skill or behaviour
  Once you know the procedure that produces success, you now have to design a method to learning the skill or effectively adopting the desired behaviour. Once you have a method to learning the skill or behaviour begin practicing it daily until it becomes a part of you.

Additional Benefits to using this technique

Another benefit to using the process of modelling is that you can apply it in any area of your life. If you need to improve an area of your life just pick a role model and follow the steps listed above. Once you have mastered this system you will be able to effectively model success. At will, you  will be to the best you can be. Furthermore, you will also be able to consistently produce excellence in any area of your chosen field. Take note that  this is a very powerful technique that will help you achieve any goal you set for yourself.
