I recently came across this test called the Wealth Dynamics test. The wealth dynamics test is a personality test that tells you exactly what strategy you should follow to build wealth. And I learned that the most successful people and the richest were lords, creators, and a mechanics as per their research. 

So, I went and did further research on analysing these successful people. Here’s the clues and secrets of the world’s most powerful, successful, and the richest lords, creators, and mechanics.

If you model their behavior and you could become successful too:

1. They model other’s success. They take ideas from other successful people and they don’t reinvent the wheel.
2. They are honest.
3. They deliver products and services of the highest value. Goods that are faster, quicker, cheaper, and better than the competition.
4. They are excellent money managers. They invest, and save for a rainy day. They keep a check on markets and economies. They keep an eye on their bottom line (profits).
5. They visualize and hallucinate success, they paint a clear picture of the vision of success.
6. They consider that money is abundant and they don’t act from a scarcity mindset.
7. They aren’t afraid of criticism and don’t let naysayers get into their heads.
8. They love and encourage unachievable goals, challenges, and competition.
9. They are unconventional. They don’t follow the status-quo. They get in/buy when most people are getting out.
10. They take calculated risks. They think that not taking risks is a guaranteed way to fail.
11. They aren’t afraid to fail. They celebrate failure as good as celebrating their successes. They feel that failure gives them a new direction.
12. They are hardworking, confident, passionate, intuitive, patient, action takers. They get things done no matter the odds.
13. They aren’t afraid to get their hands dirty and do even the low jobs required to get them where they want.
14. They treat growth as a way of life and are growth-focused at all times.
15. They realize that they can’t do everything themselves and are realistic. They know when to delegate and when to walk away from unproductive goals.
16. They read between the lines.
17. They trust their heart and instincts.
18. They know that action speaks louder than words.
19. They have an open mind and ask smart questions with a focus on continuous improvement.
