How "realistic" should I be when thinking about my ideal life, my Predictable Minimum Annual Recurring Revenue and Ideal Client Profile? I'm wondering if I need to temper my goals now that I'm starting to work on some of the numbers. It seems if I lower my target income number I could get there faster. I've heard that if anyone ever tells you to "be realistic" they're asking you to compromise your ideals.

Do NOT temper your goals. What most people tell you is false based on their limiting beliefs. That’s why this industry is full of posers who don’t make enough money to do for themselves what they are supposed to be helping their clients do.

You have a Success Road Map® and you should have Financial Road Map®. You must sit down with your spouse and get clear about your Ideal Life. What does it look like? What does it feel like? What does it sound like? What does it taste like? Can you taste it? How badly do you want to be living your Ideal Life? What are you doing when you are living your Ideal Life? Who are you doing these things with? Who are you being?

How much money do you need to fund your Ideal Life? Will you do the work required to achieve it?

You can have your Ideal Life in 4 years, or less. We will help you build an Ideal Client Community, By Referral Only, using the Values Based Financial Planning™ turn-key business model.

b I wanted to get your feedback please on this email I received from the Chamber of Commerce, where I am a relatively new member. The Chamber sent me a letter inviting me to a Trade Show. The invitation noted that the Trade Show was a great opportunity to display products or services, discover new businesses and network with other business people. My questions to you are: 1. Would you attend this event? 2. If you did, would you attend it exclusively to complete Self-Referral Conversations™? 3. The invitation mentioned renting a booth to showcase your business – what is your take on this? I was thinking of going to the Trade Show for the purpose of conducting Self-Referral Conversations™ with business people. I am not sure, however, about the idea of having a booth at an event like this.
b I have worked with many of my existing clients for several years and when we first met I conducted a Values Conversation but did not continue through the remaining parts. Now I am having discussions with these people by the Old World/New World™ Conversations. My question is do I do a completely new Financial Road map® from start to finish or do I start from their old staircase of answers. Understand most of these clients had the Values Conversation over 5 years ago.
