I would like to extend my gratitude and congratulations to LUAHK in particular, Jeff Wong, Executive Chairman
November 2001 The Financial Modernization Act In the United States caused confusion and frustration as advisors tried to find their profitable place in the new atmosphere of openness and fairness.
THREE BUSINESS MODELS • THE INSURANCE BASED COMPANIES • THE INVESTMENT BASED COMPANIES • THE BANKS
Relationship Based Work or Transaction Based Work We have the advantage.
The Lazy Person • No sense of urgency • No goals • No focus • No discipline • Poor attitude toward society • Thinks someone owes him a living • Thinks life just isn’t fair
The Very Successful Person • Focused on Success • Many Goals • Disciplined • Fair With Others • WORKS Very Hard FOR WHAT HE WANTS • Reports Results Regularly • Takes Responsibility for Mistakes • Always Learning
Achieving Greatness requires:DisciplineDetermined, Focused, Daily, Exact Actionwith GOALS in mind all the timeBILL GOODWIN
The Lazy Person is always trying to LOOK LIKE he is busy. He cares MOST about how things look to others. The Successful Person is aware others are watching. But cares most about his own work; his clients, activity and goals.
THE QUESTION IS ARE YOU GOING TO BE A Lazy Person OR A Successful Person?
THE RELATIONSHIP IS CLEAR • MDRT LIVES 116--TIME 19% 58 hours • COT LIVES 243 -- TIME 48% 54 hours • TOT LIVES 362--- TIME 53% 51 hours
Activity is… • Telephone Calls • Prospecting for New Contacts • Fact-Finding • Closing Interviews
Activity is not… • A lunch or dinner meeting with no business agenda • Golf • Giving Gifts • Doing Favors
“Activity does not guarantee success. Even enough of the right kind doesn’t…but without it, success is almost impossible” Al Granum
WHAT IS THE “RIGHT” ACTIVITY • Referral business-60-80 per month • 60 face to face meetings per month, 3/day • 12-15 fact finders each month • 50 dials per day to set activity • OCS point system= 100 points
A 30% increase in activity, results in a 50% increase in productivity
A 50% increase in activity, results in a 100% increase in productivity
I BELIEVE 60 FACE TO FACE MEETINGS= 720 PER YEAR X’s 3 yrs= 2160 appointments to REACH REAL SUCCESS
There is a pricefor success And it is always paid in advance!
“The common denominator of success, the secret of every person who has ever been successful- lies in the fact that they formed habits of doing things that failures don’t like to do” Albert Gray
GOOD HABITS ARE HARD TO DEVELOP, BUT EASY TO LIVE WITH! BAD HABITS ARE EASY TO DEVELOP, BUT HARD TO LIVE WITH!
FIXED ACTIVITY COMMITMENT SHEET This sheet will keep your focus on Activity. You have to understand the difference between fixed and variable activity. The difference is what you can control.
TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE YOU MUST CHANGE YOUR ACTIVITY
It is easier to adjust ourselves to the hardship of a poor living, than it is to adjust ourselves tothe hardship of makinga better one.

Your Purpose is… WHY DO YOU DO WHAT YOU DO!
“The strength which holds you to your purpose, is not your own strength,but the strength ofthe purpose itself”
MY TEN SIMPLE RULES OF LIFE • YOU CAN LIE TO ANYONE YOU CHOOSE TO LIE TO, BUT IF YOU LIE TO YOURSELF YOU LOSE • WE ARE ALL BASICALLY LAZY • THE MIND MIGRATES TOWARD THAT WHICH IT THINKS IS MOST PLEASING • PEOPLE WILL ALWAYS DISAPPOINT YOU
RULES OF LIFE • BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO ALL PEOPLE BOTH GOOD AND BAD, BUT GOOD THINGS TEND TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN TO GOOD PEOPLE • THERE IS GOOD IN EVERYONE AND IT’S MY JOB TO FIND IT • NEVER LET OTHERS PAY THE PRICE OF YOUR LACK OR SELF DISCIPLINE • COMMIT TO LIFETIME LEARNING • INVEST IN YOURSELF FIRST • LIFE IS TOO LONG NOT TO HAVE FUN!
