Persistence and Coaching
by Andrew Miles, Esq..
Let Others Help You Find Success
I just finished watching a program about an investment banker, a modern day Midas, and I realized it has important lessons for all of us.
A few years ago, he learned of a gold mine in Ontario, Canada. Upon visiting it, he found that it was all but abandoned due to lack of gold production. The equipment was unkept, the workers were quite apathetic; and the mine was barely functioning. It had lay untended since 1952 when the owner gave up on it.
With some research, he found that there were other gold mines in the area that we performing fairly well - well enough to keep them up and running. Why, then was this mine dying on the vine?
His expertise was in investment banking, raising venture capital for entrepreneurs and profiting from it. He had no experience in running any kind of mine, let alone a gold mine. But he had a hunch and some good instincts.
He raised $10 million dollars to revitalize the mining operations. New equipment, modern processes and better employee relations. He took a completely new approach to uncovering the mine's bounty.
Mine owners consider their mining operations top secret. They NEVER disclosed to anyone where they are digging and where in the mine they are unearthing the gold. That information is literally their treasure map and disclosing it could cause them untold harm. Yet, our friend took a completely contrarian approach. You see he realized that the best minds of the day might be able to uncover the secrets to this mine. So, he went public with the information he had and made an international request for suggestions - what we would call coaching.
He posted mine maps on the internet and offered financial incentives totaling half a million dollars to geologists who could help him find the primary veins of gold. It wasn't long before the word spread in the geology community and he began to receive information.
He got many suggestions from different sources, but the one thread that ran through the majority of the suggestions was that he needed to dig deeper. You see, the old mine floor had been set at about 1000 feet below the surface. While there was gold at that level, it was hardly a sufficient amount to be worth recovering. The main vein went down 6000 feet, but it started only a few feet below where the former owners had quit!
In just a short period of time, his investment, and his hunch, paid off. The former owners had stopped digging just a few feet from the motherload. The mine that was once left for naught is producing $250 million dollars worth of gold each year! It has been declared the richest gold- content ore in the world.
The difference between failure and uncommon success is persistence and good coaching. If you provide the persistence, my wealth accumulation program will provide the coaching; the information you need to start making important distinctions in your life.

We've all got resources, yet some of us learn to cultivate them and some of us let them die on the vine. Having the right formula allowed this man to turn around the mine's productivity and made him $250 million in the last year. The fact that he is now sitting one the richest vein of gold in the world eclipses the fact that so were his predecessors. The difference is that he was willing to reach out for the help he needed.
