Why is it that some people just seem to be able to generate wealth and have all the freedom and happiness you could ask for?

Have you ever thought about it? I know you have, because if you are the sort of person who would read an article like this one you have asked yourself that very question or something like it?

How did they do it? What makes them different from you? Perhaps they’re not, perhaps they just work and invest using their own personal strengths and leave the stuff they don’t do so well at to someone else.

Ask Richard Branson how he got where he is today, and he will tell you straight out that he did nothing he wasn’t good at, he’s great at generating new ideas and coming up with new schemes to make money, but he’s not good at “all that financial stuff.”

Here are some quotes from Mr Branson that illustrate my point:

“A business has to be involving, it has to be fun, and it has to exercise your creative instincts.” or

“I have always lived my life by thriving on opportunity and adventure. Some of the best ideas come out of the blue, and you have to keep an open mind to see their virtue.” or

“I never get the accountants in before I start up a business. It’s done on gut feeling, especially if I can see that they are taking the mickey out of the consumer.”

See what I mean? He got a creative streak.

What about Donald Trump?

“I have made the tough decisions, always with an eye toward the bottom line. Perhaps it’s time America was run like a business.” or

“Money was never a big motivation for me, except as a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game.”

These lines single him out as a Dealmaker, one of the best ever.

Warren Buffet, is like my father, who’s a hoarder, my father I mean, however Mr buffet is in his own way too as he accumulates things, mainly property and he doesn’t very often sell it again. What does he have to say that prove my point?

“Wide diversification is only required when investors do not understand what they are doing.” or

“I never attempt to make money on the stock market. I buy on the assumption that they could close the market the next day and not reopen it for five years.” or

“Time is the friend of the wonderful company, the enemy of the mediocre.”

I wonder who you are most like?

Would you like to know?

I came across something the other day that filled in all the blanks for me, multitasking is great to a point, however there are some things that I just do not do well, and then I ran into an acquaintance at a seminar and she told me to go straight to a website and take the “Wealth Profile” test. I posted the link to the test on my Blog just the other day.

Well did I learn a lot about myself! I found out that I had three real strengths and needed to stop trying to cover all the angles for myself. I learned that I have certain strengths that will create wealth and success for me as long as I concentrate on them and I have found my path. Yes, my path to success and wealth is set out before me now and I know what to do, only what I am good at, and what I am great at.

It will tell you that Mr Branson is a Creator, and Mr Trump is a Dealmaker and Mr Buffet is an Accumulator and the test result will tell you what your three greatest strengths are and how to turn those personality strengths into assets that build you wealth and success. It will also tell you who to partner up with or who to look for as your greatest asset in a partnership or joint venture, taking most of the risk out of finding a partner. I can tell you it will be the best money you have ever spent as it will save you much, much more in the long term.

When you play to your strengths and use your talents to create wealth and success you will succeed and you will be wealthy, it just follows. The trick is to allow those people who are better than you at the things you are weaker in to handle those things and get on with what you do best.

“How do I do that?” I was just getting to that, if you cannot afford to hire someone to help you, offer someone who compliments your weaknesses with their strengths a joint venture. Go into partnership with one or more people who together make up a winning team. All of you will benefit, all of you will end up wealthy and successful and for all of you it is a win-win as all of you a using your personal talents and skills and passions in a common purpose.

I have already formed a joint venture and already another person has asked me to joint venture with them, once you know your Wealth Profile you are able to tell others who have also taken the test, what your profile is and easily form new partnerships, joint ventures and work with passion and motivation.

Can you imagine only ever doing what makes you happy, only ever working with what you are passionate about? This is the direction my life is taking already.

Work? Bring it on…
