Using financial services as a gateway for optimizing client’s lives.

I’ve worked with many wealthy families that seem to have it all but ultimately, they weren’t that happy. After spending time in other countries on service trips, I noticed that people without a lot of money were much happier than the families I worked with. I started to reflect on the fact that money is not the source of happiness – there’s a lot of dimensions of happiness including the quality of your social connections, your physical body, your contribution and your intellect.

optimize your lifeAt one point I realized that if I was here to be a positive change agent in people’s lives, I couldn’t just stay focused on the numbers. Instead, I needed to focus on these other dimensions. When you’re in financial planning, it’s such a unique seat as families open up to you. I thought, let’s use that as a Trojan horse to open up these other conversations beyond money and to life and life purpose.

Developing a trustworthy and loyal team by conveying your “Why”.

To build a team, you have to decide convey your whywhat your “Why” is as an organization. Of their companies, leaders should ask themselves, “Why do we exist?” and “What’s our purpose?” You have to have a clear purpose of who you are, why you exist as an organization and clearly communicate it. If you do all that, you can convey it to others and they will like to join you if there’s a shared “Why”.

You also need to invest in people. When people feel like you’re caring for them as a whole person, they tend to be very loyal and want to be a great team member.

Developing (and maintaining) a growth mindset.

A growth mindset is when you’re Growth Mindsetalways curious. You’re open to there being other ways of doing things that might be very different from yours but could still be positive. A game I like to play is pretending that someone sitting next to you on the plane or bus has mastery in something you could learn from. Instead putting your earbuds in or looking at your social media, imagine that you have the opportunity to learn from him or her. This is a growth mindset. Trust that the world is here to support you but you’re also putting yourself in positions that allows you to keep benefiting from them.
