We all have a deep desire to be liked by everyone we encounter. It’s human nature. But this quirk can also spell trouble for you as a financial advisor. 

Why? 

Because trying to please everyone comes with a steep cost: Your time, your sanity, and yes, your business’s revenue ceiling.

There are certain types of people you will naturally create more wealth for. They’ll implement your advice quicker. And they’ll be better clients for you. 

So, why would you risk your relationships with the right kind of clients to focus on the worst type of clients? 

You wouldn’t, and yet, that’s what you do when you try to please everyone. 

In today’s show, I’m giving you permission to stop pleasing everyone, so you can enjoy more wealth, more freedom, and better clients. 

Listen now.
