How To Gain A 500% to 800% Return...On The Value Of Mentoring

The clear purpose of one on one mentoring is to engage in a process that supports change and multiplies your investment of time, energy and financial resources.

When you hold yourself accountable to someone other than yourself, that person adds their energy, skills and resources in a way that lessens the time, money and effort it takes to achieve important outcomes.

My mentoring is designed to help you overcome the challenges that are slowing your progress. It’s designed to guide and coax your success in a faster, more efficient and more certain manner.

As someone external to you, I can observe the patterns that you can’t see or hear about yourself or the marketplace because your thoughts get lost in a sea of possibilities but you can’t see your way forward. In short, I offer you powerful and productive feedback.

I work with you to achieve the outcomes we establish at the beginning of the mentoring program. In addition to this, it’s sometimes necessary to do the work for you to make results happen more quickly and to show you examples in order to accelerate your learning.

It’s why the most successful people in the world seek out the best mentors and coaches they can find. 

... then personalised one on one mentoring is the best investment of Time... Energy and Money you’ll ever make.

Mentoring produces change that leads directly to increased financial returns and heightens your sense of personal and/or professional satisfaction and enjoyment in everything you do.

The important outcomes you want are always personalised to you.

It can be change that directly targets the productive experiences and lifestyle enjoyment of economic and personal freedom.

It can be change across a number of diverse personal processes that maintain the gap between the results you’re getting and the results you’d like to achieve.

In a nutshell; personalised mentoring actively helps you close the gap between what you want and what keeps turning up. 

Imagine getting a 500% or 800% boost in productivity and profits.

One on one mentoring helps you change awareness and behaviour so that you successfully impact your personal or professional environment in the most positive of ways.

It excites possibility thinking and innovation along with new insights, awareness, capabilities, self efficacy, skills and accountability.

It encourages greater enterprise within your personal, financial or professional environment.

In Tao: Daily Meditations (1992), Deng Ming-Dao describes the value of mentoring relationships. He observes, “That is why we need a parent for a parent, a master for a master, and leaders for leaders. This prevents errors of power. In the past, even kings had wise advisers. Every person who would be a leader should have such assistance.”

The ultimate purpose of mentorship is to develop your undeveloped potential so that you can experience sustainable achievement.

Evolutionary speaking, our brain has a design principle that makes success difficult for most people. It’s designed to act in a cautious, protective fashion rather than strike out in new directions. It acts on reoccurring thoughts rather than new possibilities. 

The brain’s design preference for acting on what is already familiar to it, is the single most important blockage in why you often can’t effectively solve the challenges you’re facing.

Your reoccurring reality is the result of what your brain notices. But the solutions you need to the challenges you face are always found outside what your brain consistently notices.

It’s why the world’s greatest teams and most successful individuals in any given context engage coaches and mentors. They know that success is found outside what their brain habitually finds.

The great family therapist Virginia Satir, once said to the co-creator of NLP, Richard Bandler, “You know, Richard, most people think the will to survive is the strongest instinct in human beings, but it isn’t. The strongest instinct is to keep things familiar” (Source: Make Your Life Great.)

The desire to return to “what’s familiar” means that the mind resists change-passionately. It resists it with a determination that should never be under-estimated if you want to grow or change your current results.

The word familiar comes from the 14th C Old French word famelier meaning “intimate, very friendly, on a family footing,” and from the Latin word familiaris which means “domestic, of a household” and “familiar, intimate, and friendly”.

More than anything else in our society, we’re trained to keep "family" as close as possible. It’s an evolutionary survival mechanism that seeks safety and security.

The constant return to the “familiar” is the most powerful emotional and psychological mix that keeps you returning to the same outcomes over and over and prevents you from developing the outcomes you want.

Unless focus is directed towards habitual patterns of thought and behaviour, they’ll keep returning you to sameness.

Mentoring opens up a whole new world of possibilities that lead to extraordinary outcomes.

Understanding this one design principle alone goes a long way to helping you understand why mentoring is critical to your increased success.

Solutions are often located outside your particular frame of reference... ‘Outside’ what is already familiar to you. They’re found in information and strategies that your brain normally doesn’t notice and this is where mentors become extremely valuable to the outcomes you seek.

The world’s greatest achievers know with absolute certainty that the greatest return they’ll ever get is investing in their own success development.

Survey, after survey demonstrates that mentoring is the preferred form of leadership that guides successful personal and professional development. ROI’s are always greater than anything individuals or teams could achieve by themselves.

From a big picture perspective, extraordinary success is the ultimate benefit.

It’s not something that requires superhuman qualities, nor is it something that is beyond the reach of anyone who wants to tap into their true potential. Simply stated, extraordinary success is achieved through a process of turning creative ideas into sustained behaviours.

Most people generate ideas and dreams but they often lack sustained determination and an ability to remain focused on attending to the behaviours and actions necessary for the realisation of those dreams.

Extraordinary success comes as a result of focused determination on an intended outcome and supporting that focus with authentic action.

The greatest benefit you receive is being able to work with someone who can help you develop your capacity to attend to the realisation of desired outcomes which ensure your prosperity and success.

While individual benefits vary according to your desire and the outcomes you want, the actual benefits to you are unlimited. They’re guided by your determination to succeed, your values, your stick-ability to a process, your commitment to evolve and your individual drive. 

Unquestionably, the common benefits enjoyed by all mentoring clients are that they feel safe to explore strategies, opportunities and information outside their existing familiars.

This leads to exponential increases in self confidence, self ability, self efficacy, self awareness and personal control. In turn, this saves you time, money and costly mistakes.

Flow on benefits include greater financial productivity, clearer sense of purpose, greater access to time freedom, optimised energy, greater longevity and increased happiness.

If you’re a business owner, benefits include improved cash flows, less stress more free time, irresistible client attraction marketing, improved website function, highly automated sales funnels, and the development of innovative monetisation strategies.

The ultimate result is that your success is easier to achieve and it happens faster because of the unique combination of done with you and done for you strategies.

When you become a mentoring client, you receive an unlimited supply of one on one contact over a twelve month period. This contact is either in person, by phone or online.

It’s all about helping you to optimise your “unrealised potential” so that you can get more of what you truly want.

The first meeting is designed to map out where you’re at and the results you’d like to achieve. And then we map out the necessary steps to get you there.

My philosophy is that everybody is unique and that everybody requires a personalised program co-designed between the two of us so that it fits in with your work/life demands and your time availability.

The first few meetings are conducted within a problem-solving, solution-focused framework that aims to establish clear outcomes. Subsequent sessions are aimed at strategies and skills development.

It’s a highly personalised, tailor made, uniquely collaborative approach to your success rather than a directional, jump through the hoops “one size fits all” text book solution.

I work within your values and your beliefs, and a take a holistic perspective into consideration. Rather than focusing on weaknesses, I take an approach that focuses on your existing strengths in order to make them stronger.

The uniqueness of my approach is that it starts with the discovery and analysis of your hidden but unique genius talents.

We know that Oprah Winfrey is one of the most successful and influential talk show hosts ever. We also know that Warren Buffet is one of the most successful investors ever.

But what if Oprah and Warren Buffet were to swap places? The end result would be disastrous because they wouldn’t be able to do what each other does best.

The fact is we all have our own genius talents. We have our own strengths and weaknesses. If you try to build success in any given context by trying to improve your weaknesses, you will struggle and probably fail.

Develop your natural talent

Success is achieved not by trying to improve weaknesses; it’s achieved by further developing your natural talents and strengths so that you become more efficient and productive. We want things to become easier, simpler, and more enjoyable.

Here’s a case in point: JK Rowling, the author of the Harry Potter series, was living in poverty for decades. She was a single mother living on welfare. Nothing she did worked out until she tapped into her greatest talent: writing novels.

As a result, she quickly rose to the top and became one of the richest writers in the world.

Uncovering your hidden talents and strengths...

The question is how do you uncover your hidden talents and strengths? It’s simple…

The best and easiest way is to take Your Genius Assessment.

You can do this online, it takes approximately 20 minutes and you’ll uncover all the talents that are now buried deep inside you.

Your Genius: A "Users Guide" Of Your Mind

Think of Your Genius Assessment as being like a user’s guide of your mind. Just like the user’s guide of your iPad, Your Genius Assessment tells you all the unique “features” in your mind that we could access to improve your results.

It tells you how your mind operates … what talents and strengths you’re born with … and what your weaknesses and shortcomings are.

Here’s how the assessment works…

First, you’ll get access to a multiple-choice questionnaire.

Once you finish, your answers will be processed as soon as humanly possible.

Then you’ll receive a detailed report describing the type of genius you have, based on your answers.

In this report, you’ll find out what your strengths and weaknesses are … and what tweaks we can make to what you’re already good at.

Here's What You Will Discover About Yourself...

You’ll discover how your mind makes important decisions … your mind’s favourite way of gaining new knowledge … and the one tweak that you can do to one of your strengths in order to become more productive and efficient.

After you’re done with Your Genius Assessment, you’ll know more about yourself in a single day than all the years before! It’s incredible.

One on one mentoring is designed to nurture your existing talents in a way that fulfils what’s important to you.

It’s all about encouraging your capacity to see...

1. ...New opportunities
2. ...New solutions
3. ...New options and
4. ...New capabilities...

...so that you can continually increase your financial returns and achieve important outcomes.

The clearer you are about your deep intrinsic values, the easier it is to build a future that coherently aligns with these values.

Mentoring with me is authentically discreet in creating a safe environment for change. I’ll act as a confidant and mastermind sounding board, a unique mentor and guide… and as someone who stands as an immoveable brick wall in support of you.

The most effective thinkers realise that they cannot be right all of the time and that they can’t do everything by themselves. They also realise that the solutions they seek are often found by looking in places you’ve never thought of looking before.

Because everything is individualised to your unique outcomes, there are no glossy brochures and no step by step “one size fits all” itemised process that you can download.

My interests lie in effectiveness not formulas.
