Greg Reid is the founder and CEO of Work Smart, Inc., a partner in Wish Entertainment, Inc., and he is the author of “The Millionaire Mentor” and “The Millionaire Mentor Corporation”. Wish Entertainment is the producer of the popular film “Pass It On”.
With the “Millionaire Mentor” name, you might think Greg Reid only mentors people who are already millionaires, when in fact, nothing could be farther from the truth. Greg is living his passion by working with inner city kids in San Diego.
Mentoring others is something Greg has always done. His parents encouraged him to go to college, but he didn’t even finish high school. He wanted to jump right into the business world, so after about two years in his first sales job, he sent his W2 home to his parents to prove that he could make $100,000 in a year just by doing what he loved to do.
Greg Reid is the creator of the “Success Equation”, which is P + T x A(squared) = Success. “P” stands for passion. “T” stands for talent. “A” stands for association. Passion is what you’d be doing each day if money weren’t an issue. Talent is your natural ability. Association is who you are with most of the time.
If the five people you spend most of your time with are successful and wealthy, chances are you will be, too. If they’re not, chances are you won’t be either. Surround yourself with positive people. Seek out great minds in the field of your passion.
Abraham Lincoln once said, “People are as happy as they make up their minds to be”. Greg Reid took that message to heart. He lives his life as happy as he can, and he shares the happiness wealth through his “Always Good” website.
Mentors are all around us. Greg calls it the reticular activator system. You notice what’s on your mind. If you’re planning a wedding, suddenly it seems everyone you meet is getting married. If you buy a blue car, suddenly every car on the road is blue. It’s not that everyone just bought a blue car. It’s that you never really noticed before.
When you make up your mind to do something, your mentor will appear. Where there’s a student, there’s a teacher. Your teacher may come in the form of a book or CD, or that person may come in the form of your next door neighbor. Set your mind to something and keep your eyes open. Surround yourself with success!
