I recently went on a one-day road trip with my mom to the Hamptons in New York. The Hamptons is an exclusive beach area on the eastern tip of Long Island where the wealthy to hang out. Stars like Madonna, Jay Z, and the ultra rich all have houses and party in the Hamptons during the summer.
Though I grew up in New York City and lived there for many years, neither my mom nor I had ever gone there before.
Why I Love Road Trips
I love road trips where you just get in the car and drive a few hours. I find long car rides to be one of the best ways to talk, share and catch up with someone. There are fewer distractions, and you have the choice of either driving in silence or making conversation. Of course, you can also talk on your cell phone, but that would be rude to the other person and also, that person would overhear your entire conversation.
I was really looking forward to this trip with my mom because I had a great bonding time with her the last time we took a road trip and drove all the way to Baltimore.
Exploring and Dream Building
One of my routines that I enjoy whenever I travel is to jog and explore the city. In my recent trip to Sydney, one of the highlights was being able to run everyday.
On this trip, I went from the heart of South Hampton to the beach and ran past these amazing mansions. These houses were really incredible and inspiring. Check some of them out:
Source of Inspiration
When I am in Los Angeles, I often bike or run in areas where the ultra wealthy live just so that I can see the mansions and be inspired by what is possible.
I am inspired NOT by the materialistic but by what is humanly possible.
I am inspired and motivated to reach new goals!
I believe that we are all born with unlimited potential, but we just lack a mentor or an opportunity to allow us to live the life of which we are capable.
If they can do it, we can do it!
When I run past these huge mansions, I know that the owners are not much different than you or I. Many of the owners of these mansions were not born rich. In fact, most come from poor to middle class backgrounds but they worked hard and became successful at their opportunity.
They are humans, and they eat, breathe and sleep everyday. And just like us, they ONLY have 24 hours in a day.
However, they are more productive, have leverage, and have achieved things that we have not YET achieved.
Just Copy What Successful People Do
Success is simple. We are all born with unlimited potential, and if you want to be successful, all you have to do is copy what successful people do. By following this model, I was able to build a successful network marketing business that generates over $500,000 USD in weekly sales simply by copying what the top leaders did.
As I jog in admiration, thoughts and questions run through my mind that motivate me to get to the next level. I know if these people can be successful, I can be successful. I just need to copy them, and I ask myself:
What skills do they know that I need to learn?
What habits do they have that I need to adopt?
What beliefs do I have that hold me back?
Do I have fears that I must give up that they don’t have?
And most importantly, how is their mindset and attitude DIFFERENT than mine?
The constant theme behind the answers to these questions is that…
I MUST CHANGE in order for my income to CHANGE!
Your Next Step to Success
Find someone who is successful that you admire; acknowledge that if they can do it, you can do it as well. But you must change.
So…
What new skill are you going to work on today?
What habits do you need to adopt?
What habits do you need to give up?
What fears are holding you back?
What beliefs do you need to change?
Answer these questions for yourself, make changes, adopt new habits, and you will find yourself reach new heights.
We are all born with unlimited potential so don’t waste it!
Sincerely,
Simon Chan

When Kate and I were living in the Hamptons we lived right down the street from the last house in your pictures. This place was HUGE. 60+ bedrooms. It is the biggest house I have ever seen.
