Creating Ultimate Wealth
Designing the “9 Environments of You” for Financial Wealth
Welcome and….
Congratulations your decision to download our Special Report “Designing ‘The 9 Environments of You’
for Financial Wealth”.
The concepts shared in this report are unique and may challenge conventional thinking about how to
create wealth so read it several times, digest it, and then give yourself permission to “test” the
strategies. These concepts have supported many of our clients, family and friends in creating their
“Ultimate Lifestyles” by creating “Ultimate Wealth” and that’s what we wish for you.
Most people will tell you that in order to create wealth you have to have the proper Skill-sets and Mind-
set needed to be successful. That’s true.
The skill-set is also known as the “how-to”. There are tons of resources such as books, tapes & seminars
available on “how-to create wealth” and many of them provide solid instructions and road maps.
Knowing “how to” do something will save you time and energy in achieving your goal but it’s only 10%
of the equation.
40% of creating wealth is what we call the “Mindset”. The Mindset is also known as the “inner game” or
“the mental and emotional” aspect of creating wealth. This part of your wealth creation is extremely
important. If you know “how to” do something but can’t get yourself or others to do what you know
you need to do, consistently, then you may never reach your goal of ultimate wealth. How do you know
if your inner game is solid? Look at your results. Do you get yourself to do the things you need to do
consistently to create an abundance of wealth or does your mental programming derail you and cause
you to overspend, or make you feel like there isn’t enough or cause you to give up on the dream of
creating wealth?
In the last few decades, many authors, speakers & gurus have been talking about the “skillsets and
mindsets” or the “beliefs” side of creating wealth. But what they don’t tell you, or aren’t aware of, is
that these are only 50% of the equation.
So what’s the missing 50%?
What is it that is programming our mental and emotional game?
I’d like to suggest that there are 9 Environments that are controlling how we think, feel, or act and most
of us are unaware of how these 9 Environments are controlling our lives.
Most millionaires and billionaires design these environments to guarantee their consistent success and
now we’re going to share them with you.

Section 1: Introduction to the Concept of “The 9
Environments of You”
When looking to create “Ultimate Wealth”, it will be critical for you to take into account everything that
is around you. As humans, we have a direct relationship with our environments, including our physical
space, the people we spend time with, the books we read and the thoughts we think. In order to make
long-term changes, it is important to consider the world around you and how to enhance and evolve
everything in your environments (both internal and external environments). If your environment is not
growing and evolving as you grow and evolve, you will be living in a state of drag (low energy,
resistance, slow movement) rather than in a state of inspiration. By designing your environments so
that they are a constant source of inspiration, you will find your daily habits, actions and goals are much
easier to attain, and you will no longer have to rely on “will power” to get the job done.
OBJECTIVES
At the conclusion of this section of the report, you will be able to:
• Name and describe the 9 Environments of You
• Understand how the 9 Environments have conditioned you and formed you to become the
person you are
• Gain insight into how your environment is a reflection of your thoughts, beliefs and inner game
• Understand how to begin redesigning the 9 Environments of You so that you win your ultimate
game

CoachVille, LLC, is a coach training organization and its founder, Thomas Leonard was a pioneer when
it comes to using the environment as a tool to grow and evolve as a person. While many people feel
that the environment only includes your physical/tangible surroundings, Leonard believed that
everything both inside and outside of human beings is considered an environment, and that there are
actually nine basic environments that we come in contact with each day.

BENEFITS OF HAVING WELL DESIGNED ENVIRONMENTS
• You will achieve your goals effortlessly, efficiently and effectively
• You will no longer have to rely on will power to get the job done
• You will stop relying on yourself to complete your goals. If well designed, your environments
will become your partners in your goal achievement
WHAT ARE THE CONSEQUENCES OF NOT HAVING WELL DESIGNED ENVIRONMENTS?
• You will be living by default, rather than by design, which causes emotional, mental and
physical reactions which can increase stress
• You will find that you are constantly in struggle and friction with your environment. Life just
does not flow freely without well designed environments
• You will find that you are lacking the inspiration required to get the job done (you will be relying
more on will power than flow to move forward)
WHAT GETS IN THE WAY OF YOUR ABILITY TO DESIGN YOUR ENVIRONMENTS SO THAT THEY PULL YOU IN THE
DIRECTION OF WHAT YOU WANT IN LIFE?
• An “I don’t have time” attitude
• Lack of resources
• Procrastination
• Fear of changing (the change itself is much less painful than the thought of the change)
• Lack of creativity (everyone has a right brain…it’s important to learn how to tap your creativity
to design the life you want)
KEY POINTS • Designing your environments to create Ultimate Wealth is not going to be about decluttering
or reading a new book. Because you are playing a very big game, we want to begin looking
closely at how your environments can pull you like a vacuum in the direction of your big goals of
Ultimate Wealth. Because you are playing a much bigger game that most people, your
environments will need to be designed in a much more sophisticated way.
• With our environments, we can design, change, influence our environments, or we can remove
ourselves from them. To say that you are a victim of your environment will not support you in
winning your ultimate game. Each choice you have made in your life has led you to your
current environment, and if it is no longer serving you, it is up to you to take the responsibility
to make a change (often a drastic change such as moving to a new location or ending a key life
relationship).

• The top athletic coaches in the world will tell you that winning is a bi-product of well designed
environments, including having the best in class equipment, having access to the best training,
team chemistry, diet and nutrition, weather conditions (each outdoor sport will tell you that
there are certain weather conditions that are perfect for each sport), the inner game (beliefs,
thoughts, emotions), ample financial resources to be able to afford the best coaches, and
boosters to help continue funding a great athletic program. If any of these components is
missing from the puzzle, performance will be compromised.
• Everything in life is energy, so each aspect of your environment is connected to the next. If one
environment is not designed to support you in creating Ultimate Wealth, it will affect all
environments. As an example: A great golfer can have all of the talent in the world, be
masterful at the game and be the most skilled in the world, and he or she normally plays in
sunny conditions with calm winds. This golfer is not accustomed to playing in cold and wind. A
tournament comes up in Colorado, the temperature drops and the wind starts blowing.
Suddenly, this golfer’s entire game falls apart because of this new environment…from the skill,
to the mental attitude to his or her posture to the emotions he or she is feeling. Even though
this seems like a small change in the environment, it is actually huge for this golfer…it affects
everything (including the way the gallery is responding…they move on to watch a golfer who is
winning, because most people want to follow the winners).
• You are a product of your environment. In order to win, it will become important for you to live
in an environment that will gradually pull you in the direction of your ultimate goals. This
includes everything from your physical space to the people you invest time with to the clothes
you wear to the books you read.
• Your environments are a reflection of who you are on the inside…your thoughts, beliefs, tastes,
values and customs. Your environments can give you clues into what is really going on inside of
you. As you look at your environment, ask yourself these questions: “Why is this in my
environment? What prompted my choice about inviting this into my environment? Is this
serving me in creating wealth?”
• Tolerations in the environment can provide you with insight into the “stuck points” in your life.
If you have a piece of broken equipment that has not been fixed for months, ask yourself the
question “What type of thinking is stopping me from getting this piece of equipment fixed?” If
you have a negative person in your life who continues to drain you of your energy and
inspiration, ask yourself “What beliefs do I hold that are keeping me in this negative
relationship?”
• The best way to change your life and to create wealth is to immerse yourself in the new
environment/life that you want to become. Example: The best way to learn a new language is
to live in a country where the language you want to learn is the first language. The same is true

with wealth…to live your ultimate life; you have to be willing to design your life and your
environments so that they call you to grow into this way of living. As with stretch goals, putting
yourself in the new environment will feel uncomfortable at first. You may notice big gaps
between what other people are doing and achieving as compared to where you are in life. The
key here is to not judge yourself or compare yourself to other people or to the environment, but
to allow the environment to do the work for you, pulling you in the direction of your goals (it
will do its job, it you just let it).
• With well designed environments, you should be feeling a sense of “flow”…that life is
happening effortlessly and with ease and joy. By living in flow, you will find that you are much
more able to save time, energy and valuable resources which can be applied in the direction of
your life’s vision.

Section 2: Designing the 9 Environments of You for
Financial Wealth
Millionaires and billionaires know that success is directly proportional to the “who, what, and how” of
designing each aspect of their environment. They know that wealth is a bi-product of winning and
winning is a bi-product of how they design both their inner and outer worlds. They understand on a
very deep level that in order to change their results, they can’t just do a little of this and a little of
that…they know that they have to get down to their roots and that each little thing in the environment
can make or break their success.
Let’s look at professional athletes as an example. There are some fundamental design elements
common to the most successful athletes of our times, and they are:
• Successful athletes create their destiny…they don’t let life just roll over them.
• Successful athletes design their life to win!...Not to “not lose”.
• Successful athletes think in big terms (a successful swimmer like Michael Phelps thinks in terms
of not just making the Olympics but having a goal of 8 gold medals hanging around his neck at
the end of the event).
• Successful athletes focus on getting what they want…not on the obstacles (no matter who
Phelps is swimming against, what the media is saying, or how close his races are, he focuses on
winning…not the obstacles)
• Successful athletes design their surroundings for success (Why do you think so many golfers
have full time residences in Florida? Why do the best beach volleyball players in the world live
in southern California? Because they can play every day of the year!)
• Successful athletes surround themselves with the BEST players, the BEST coaches and the
BEST team possible…because they know they have to if they want to win!
To create Ultimate Wealth, you need to design your environments with the same level of precision that
a professional athlete designs their environments.
OBJECTIVES
In this section of the report, we will be delving into your environments and how they can be designed to
support you in creating Ultimate Wealth.
• Understand the impact the 9 Environments are having on your financial wealth and the cost
associated with that
• Learn how to upgrade they key environments
• Begin creating and recruiting your Ultimate Wealth Team

KEY POINTS
• Whether or not you realize it, the nine environments around you are either supporting your
ability to create Ultimate Wealth, or they are draining your life of important financial resources.
• Through upgrading your entire life, you can position yourself to achieve wealth quicker and
easier.
• In the book Broken Windows Broken Business, author Michael Levine describes in detail the
psychology of perception…that constant attention to detail not only shows that you are
competent but shows that you care about your business and your customers. If your home,
office or car are broken (torn carpet, chipping paint, broken relationship, broken trust, ripped
furniture, broken tail lights, a dirty car), you are sending the message to others that you just
don’t care…and guess what! People don’t want to do business with people who don’t care
about their lives enough to fix what’s broken/not working. We not only want you to fix what’s
broken…we want you to go over the top to design your entire life so that it attracts happy,
healthy, wealthy people and opportunities.
• In order to be truly wealthy, it is important to become aware of what is really going on in all life
areas (all nine environments) so that you can discover your biggest Achilles heel…the
environment that is creating the biggest challenge in your ability to attract ultimate wealth.
WHAT CHANGES CAN BE MADE IN THE 9 ENVIRONMENTS TO IMPACT YOUR WEALTH?
Once you have considered each of the nine environments, it will be crucial for you to go ahead and act
swiftly, making the following changes in each of the nine environments:
MEMETIC
• Develop an abundance mindset…begin to see yourself as happy, healthy, wealthy and as someone
who is open to multiple opportunities to make and grow money. Use daily affirmations to reinforce
this abundance mindset.
• Shift your negative beliefs around money to a positive belief system (work with a coach on this).
• Reduce the amount of information coming into your environments (e-mails, magazines, television,
the news, negative conversations, junk mail).
• If you have a shopping or gambling addiction or any other type of dependency, get help
immediately.
• Work with a strategic coach to move your ideas into strategy and action by minimizing your risk
10

BODY
• Get your body in shape, and get healthy. You will save tremendous amounts of money, and your
health insurance rates will go down if you are healthy and in shape
• Stop smoking, and limit alcohol (consider how much money you spend annually on cigarettes and
alcohol and the medical bills associated with these habits)
• Do everything you can to get off medication (weight loss, exercise, natural supplements, and get a
second opinion from another health care professional)
• Fill your home with healthy, delicious tasting foods
• Limit the number of times you dine out (unless you are eating in a whole foods, healthy restaurant,
the calories, sodium, fat and sugar you take in are almost three times what you prepare at home,
and constantly eating out is costly)
• Cut back on your food portions
• Work on your total conditioning to increase your energy levels (the more energy you have, the
more you can generate income)
• Get plenty of sleep (6-8 hours a night of shut eye can exponentially strengthen your immune
system and can help you lose weight, which can allow you to work at peak potential)
SELF
• Work with an image consultant and coach to improve your self-image and self confidence (people
want to do business with people who are confident and who have a positive self image)
• Update your wardrobe, and present yourself as sharp, polished and professional
• Use your strengths each day, and outsource your shortcomings (you will save time in your day by
using your strengths, and time is money!)
• Improve your time management skills, and design your day so that you are dedicated to working on
high level activities that you know are going to bring income into your life
• Reduce overwhelm by scheduling downtime between activities
• Enhance your communication skills (listen more, use laser like communication, work on
articulation)
• Shift any negative talk to positive talk (people are not attracted to people who are negative)
SPIRITUAL
• Get connected to a higher power…when you become aware that we are all connected and that
there is a greater source at play, your mind will become open to abundance
• Develop abundance in all life areas (abundance of love, positive thoughts, compassion, trust,
integrity, physical energy, financial wealth, health, happiness). Abundance means that you are
spilling over with great things in life, and you have so much to give to others as a bi-product (people
are attracted to people who are open and giving).
11
Creating Ultimate W

orkshop
RELATIONSHIPS
• Eliminate friction in your relationships (friction causes delay and drag, which can affect your ability
to make and grow your money).
• Sit down with your spouse, partner or business partner and come to an agreement about you are
going to budget and invest your money.
• Upgrade your relationships to surround yourself with people who are wealthy and who are winning
the ultimate wealth game
NETWORK
• Design your network so that it is filled with people who are millionaires and billionaires
• Fill your network with people who are giving
• Update your website and marketing collateral so that it attracts people who are wealthy
• Build a solid wealth team (people who are credible, competent, trusting, etc.)
• Design a “raving fan” customer service program, and deliver this customer service in spades (it is
VERY expensive to get a new client or customer…take exceptional care of the ones you have!)
FINANCIAL
• Look at the total scope of your financial playing field…get real and honest about what you are
earning and what you are investing
• Invest time in planning a realistic budget for each year. Monitor this budget monthly to make sure
you are on track
• Update all insurance (health, home, auto)
• Pay yourself at least 10% of your income in the first of each month, and build up your savings over
time
• Invest your money so that it grows your income
• Develop a source of passive income (either from investments or passively selling a product)
• Work with your wealth team to ensure that your money is as protected and sheltered as it possibly
can be and that your investments offer you a balance of risky and conservative investments
• Eliminate all debt (pay off all credit cards, and stop using credit cards if need be)
PHYSICAL
• Invest time in upgrading your home to reflect the ultimate game you want to win (if you want to
become a millionaire, how can you creatively redesign your spaces so that it reflects the life you
want to live?)
• Replace/upgrade insulation
• Fix or replace all broken equipment
• Replace all weather stripping
• Paint the inside and outside of your home (a fresh coat of paint can be inspiring)
12

• If need be, add windows or a skylight to allow more natural light to stream into your home or office
• Contact your heating and air specialist to perform a full check up on your heating and air system
• If you own a gas guzzling car, trade it in for a fuel efficient car
• Replace all air filters
• Clean your windows both inside and out. Replace any windows that are not tight fitting
• Set your thermostat to 68 degrees in the winter and 72 degrees in the summer
• Replace all light bulbs with energy efficient light bulbs
• Limit washer and dryer activity as much as possible (avoid running small loads)
• Shut down your computer and equipment each evening
• Take your car in for a full service. Repair any exterior damages to your car
• Design your home and office so that they are clutter free and inspiring
NATURE
• Increase the amount of natural light you are exposed to each day (will shift your mood and energy)
• Upgrade your lawn (make it beautiful and easy to take care of…make sure that you use indigenous
plants and that your lawn and plants have plenty of water, proper nutrients and sunlight)
• Replace your soil if need be (or ask a lawn specialist to treat your soil)

Section 3: A Self-Assessment of the “Cost” of Your
Current Environments
Take this self-assessment of the “cost” of your current environments and develop an action plan of how
you will upgrade this aspect of your environments so that you begin building wealth.
Memetic Environment
How much money is this
costing you?
How will you upgrade this
aspect of your environment so
that you begin building
wealth?
Fear of risk Ex: $120k/year. I didn’t act on
a business opportunity that
could have generated
$10k/month
I will work with my team on
taking small risks to start with
Scarcity mindset Ex: $150k/year. My goal is to
earn $250k/year but I’ve been
stuck at $100k/year and I tell
myself I can’t afford to attend
the wealth workshop.
I will sell something in my
garage to cover the expense or
eliminate cable TV and
magazine subscriptions for the next year which will pay for the
event.
