5 Steps To Success
Leaving A Legacy
We has CPAs and accounting professionals often struggle with work / life balance. When we learn to think differently we gain life balance which will leave a legacy.
Work / Family / Life Balance
Tom Kunz shared the 5 Steps To Success to his children and now they are sharing this principle with their children. It is a part of Grandpa Kunz's legacy and it can be a part of your legacy as well.
Tom Kunz shares below the 5 Steps To Success in any and every area of one's life. Tom is the past President of the largest real estate franchise in the world. Tom has shared this natural law all around the world to tens of thousands of people . . . but the most important people in the world are the children, the next generation. The heart of a grandfather.
EC2 "Engineered CLARITY Community" will help us as grandparents and parents to help our children become clear as to what they WANT and what ACTIONS they need to take to achieve what they say they want. ~ click here for Quick Start EC2 ~
Topics Of Interest For CPAs
1. $250,000 In Passive Income
As A CPA Do You Believe You Can Achieve This ...
Hopefully you said "Yes" as most CPAs don't believe they can achieve this.
Why? It's not because it's impossible to create $250,000 in passive income, but because we tend to think like employees ... and not like business owners. Business owners do this every day all around the world and we as CPAs can as well ... IF ... we learn to Think Differently.
Albert Einstein shares ... "We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them."
In the Quantum Thinking model we learn that we need to learn how to become AWAKENED ~ OWNERSHIP ~ WORK and CARE in ways we as CPAs are never taught to think.
ACTION STEP #1: "Ask Question" To Everyone You Know ... ~ "With all the things that you have going on ... what would you say your biggest challenge may be?"
- 1. Do work yourself (own a job)- You can add this to your conversations, send an email, make a phone call. Do whatever you need to do to get every business owner / leader's biggest challenge.
- 2. Partner with Life Masteries Institute (LMI) - Talk with your EC2 Mentor about how best to do take this approach.
- 3. Contract with E-VA's "Executive Virtual Assistant" ~ Connect with someone in your EC2 Tree who is working with E-VA's to get a recommendation of one they are working with.
ACTION STEP #2: "Listen" ... ~ Now, often CPAs think they are good listeners ... but they often hear details and not big picture. When someone shares their biggest challenge, we MUST learn to listen at the Quantum Thinking Level to learn how to create $250,000 a year in passive income.
Napoleon Hill, in his famous book "Think And Grow Rich" shared ... "Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve."
5 Steps To Success
Tom Kunz
Step 2: Obstacles ~ We as CPAs have been trained and tested to think in a linear fashion. While there is nothing wrong with this and we must do this to complete taxes returns and do accounting ... if we want to earn passive income, we need to learn to Think Differently. Believe it or not ... our only obstacle is ourselves and how we think.
Step 3: Sacrifice ~ We as CPAs tend to think that we are very busy and important and that we are smart as well. We need to learn to sacrifice our egos and learn to trust what Tom Kunz, past President of the largest real estate franchise in the world calls "Trust the integrity of the system."
Step 4: Decision ~ By being a part of the EC2 "Engineered Clarity Community" network, to achieve this goal we must make a decision to trust the system.
Step 5: DO ~ As a CPA do you ever find yourself not doing what you "know" you should be doing? Actually the truth is that if we aren't DOING, taking action ... then we do not KNOW or really WANT things as we think we do. There are three core reasons why we do not do what we KNOW we need to do.
- 1. BENEFIT ~ We do not know the TRUE BENEFIT to doing what we "know" we should do.
- 2. COST ~ We do not know the TRUE COST to doing what we "know" we should do.
- 3. LACK BANDWIDTH ~ We do not know how to get what we "know" we should be doing with our current level of resources.
NOTE: If you need help in following through talk with someone in your EC2 Tree who is being coached through an ActionVISION certified consultant to get a referral.

How Do I Learn To Trust The System?
Great question! Once we get the biggest challenge from business owners / leaders we MUST either learn to do the 30 minute Strategy Session (30 MSS) or trust one of our E-VA's to do the 30 MSS on our behalf or partner with someone from Life Masteries Institute (LMI) to do it on our behalf.
Most CPAs jump too quickly to share their knowledge, to present a solution and don't have the patience and the discipline dig deep to discover the CORE reason for the problem. When we learn how to solve business / people / systems problems at the core level we earn a lot more and can build a system and network of amazing individuals who will do the work so we don't have to from the networks we have invested a life time creating.
2. Secret About Time
So what is the secret to time?
Grandpa Boersma discusses the TRUTH about time! We all have a ton of time - the same 10,080 minutes in a WEEK, and 1,440 minutes in a DAY.
The truth isn't that you DON'T have the time...listen in to what the TRUTH actually is!

3. Prep For Tax Season
The Right Systems = Success
We as CPAs often do not move fast enough to implement the right systems and/or bring in the right outside expert advice. Ken Bucci ~ CPA, MST
A Great Reminder...
In one of the monthly individual coaching session we have for each team member, one of our amazing team member shared the follow. Good for each of us to remember and be proactive . . . NOT reactive.
I Helen was asked what she learned that she wishes she knew three months ago. Her response was full of insight. Not sure how to really lock this in as it seems like it's easy for all of us to forget at times.
Helen's Response . . .
"When things were less busy, kind of going along well . . . we thought we were doing pretty well, I / we need to remember that we need to always have a sense of urgency to get out and keep out in front of the wave."
ActionVISION Coaches Response . . .
"I also think that maybe . . . for the analytic personality type that we often 'want things perfect' or at least done really really well and we feel we can do that earlier in the tax season, when in reality if we "just pushed more though, even if it's not perfect' that in the end we actually would give better service to all our clients overall.
MORAL Of Story . . .
"Be proactive and get 100% of what can be done BEFORE we need to. Be careful about creating a roller coaster where we work really hard, take vacations, time off, kind of get back after it and then hit another deadline and start the entire cycle all over again."
If we want to have more free time we need to invest in the experts who can help us design and engineer a BOS ~ Business Operating System to properly LEVERAGE every team member's talents, gifts and passions to the mutual benefit of all.
We as CPAs think we have learned our lessons from the past, but really have not. We continue to procrastinate and that costs us time, increases our stress and puts our legacy at risk.

Work / Family / Life Balance
Grandpa Boersma shares something he discovered with his four teenagers where often they were sad, or mad or just had bad attitudes because they were entitled, they lacked perspective and how adults often aren't any better than teenagers or kids at this.
6. Blackout Principle
Do you have people who go dark on you?
Do you have anyone who just stops communicating with you? How do you handle that?
