Today’s question is “How can I reduce debt?”

Phil shares three key points:

Every so often a new resource shows up that really has a positive impact on our planet.  I’d like to share one with you, because I really feel you’ll gain insights that will help you enhance your life and the lives of others.

Robyn Simpson from www.choosethetude.com is the queen of attitude and spreading compounding ripples of inspiration to help people create a happier life.  Her new book ‘Attitude, Aptitude, Altitude - Choose Your ‘Tude!’ is creating huge ripples of inspiration across the world because of it’s practical 15 step ‘Structure of Goals’ process.  Finally, a book that outlines exactly what you need to do to achieve your goals - no matter what they are.

I have had the most profound result in just 24 hours after reading this book. It was so easy to follow the 15 steps. In fact I must admit for a whole week I focused on it and had amazing results in everything I applied myself to.  Then the next week I slipped and after 1 week of reverting to my old behaviors I really felt and saw the difference! So I am glad to say I am back onto the steps again and now after 24 hours, results are appearing! These are truly magical steps in your book Robyn and I am sure it will be known as “The Ultimate Handbook of Goal Setting” across the planet in no time at all. I just want to know when your next book is coming?

V Markiewicz

What makes this book different?  Robyn Simpson provides tools and techniques that become life enhancing habits, including mind management, energy management and self management techniques no other goal book explores in quite the same way.  ’Attitude, Aptitude, Altitude - Choose Your ‘Tude!‘ teaches you the techniques high performers use daily to achieve their goals, in a simple and practical way so you can incorporate them in your life starting today!  Robyn shares with you exactly how she achieves big goals regularly.  An example of one of the BIG goals Robyn is working on is to reach over 10 million people and share the simple yet highly effective techniques that help people achieve any goal they desire!

Why?  Because attitudes are contagious, so the more people in the world who are achieving happiness, the more positive ripples of inspiration will spread, affecting more and more people, making the world a more positive place… and so the process continues.

Imagine how your life will be when you achieve your biggest goals.  Think about it - what do you really want?  Has anyone else in the world achieved it?  If so, then you can too and this book will help you.  How will your achievement affect you?  How will it affect others around you?  Become an inspiration to others and be the change you want to see in the world.

Here is a sample of what you will learn in the book:

• Why your attitude is the essence of your ultimate success
• The absolute power of attitudes and how they affect your life
• Learn the 15 step ‘Structure of Goals’ process to help you achieve any goal

Today I wanted to share with you the final email students receive in my successful online coaching program, Overcoming Unhealthy Financial Habits.

To achieve this in your financial life, start by getting your hands on the free gift below.

EMAIL SUBJECT: Arriving at Healthy Financial Habits

************************************

Congratulations! You have arrived at the next milestone of your journey.

“What?!” I hear you scream. “I thought this was finished?”

No, I’m sorry my friends, while we part company here, this is just a milestone.

If you have chosen to adopt the principles I have shared with you throughout this coaching process then you are most certainly much closer to your destination.

You will be sharing personal and family financial values with your loved ones, which will be creating a real sense of “team” in the household. I believe you will experience less stress as you discuss money with your spouse. And, your kids will understand more about your family finances and, as a result, stop begging you for money so often.

Have you ever been in a hospital room, either as a visitor or a patient? I find hospitals kind of freaky; the hard beds with clean, starched sheets; the colourless, sterile environment that doesn’t speak of life and vitality; the quietness about hospitals that I think adds to the mystique; and flowers, loads of flowers.

Hospitals are always busy. Nurses move about swiftly, reminding me of busy bees collecting pollen. The silence is dissected by the monitors beeping three rooms down the hallway. The person in the next bed is trying to read their magazine while listening to your conversation. The hallways are full of all sorts of people, most of them wandering around in a daze trying not to get in the way.

And then there’s the conversation you have with the Doctor…

My passion is Teaching People About Money, it’s something I love doing and it’s something people tell me I’m really good at.

In my experience many people have developed what I call unhealthy financial habits which limit what they can achieve with their money. Here are three examples of what these unhealthy habits can cause.

When I was younger I was a complete fiscal idiot. I wasted my money and squandered everything I had seeking the good times that only lasted a short time. I had no idea how to control my spending frenzies and never had enough for my bills. So, as I say, I was a complete fiscal idiot.

Most people are not like this, and you are probably nowhere near as bad as I was. But I find that while people will not class themselves as fiscal idiots they do have some unhealthy financial habits that are limiting what they could be achieving with their money. Do you think you could achieve more with the money you have?

Before that, allow me to tell you the happy end to the story that brought me here.
