Bob Proctor is a lecturer, counselor, business consultant, and teacher, who explains how people can recognize their potential and achieve their goals in life. For 40 years, he has helped create lives of prosperity, rewarding relationships, and spiritual awareness. Born in northern Ontario, Bob stresses the ideas of positive thinking and self-motivation.
In 1960, Bob was a high school dropout with a resume of dead-end jobs and a future clouded in debt. But by using Napoleon Hill’s Think and Grow Rich, he found the initiative to start an office cleaning business, which he grew to international scope in his first year of operation. He was making more than $100,000, and soon his salary topped $1 million.
Bob then moved to Chicago to work at Nightingale-Conant, where he became vice president of sales. In the mid-1970s, he established his own seminar company. Bob now teaches thousands of people how to believe in and act upon the greatness of their own minds. He has earned praise for his teaching from places around the world. Bob is also the author of a number of books, including the international bestseller, You Were Born Rich.

Favorite Quotes & Thoughts from Bob Proctor
• All of the great achievers of the past have been visionary figures; they were men and women who projected into the future. They thought of what could be, rather than what already was, and then they moved themselves into action, to bring these things into fruition.
• The only competition you will ever face is with your own ignorance.
• Persistence is a unique mental strength; a strength that is essential to combat the fierce power of the repeated rejections and numerous other obstacles that sit in waiting and are all part of winning in a fast-moving, ever-changing world.

How to get started
Bob Proctor’s special skill is mentoring and coaching people. He has demonstrated an ability to assist others with reaching their goals and attaining a life of prosperity. There is no one way to get started with Bob Proctor; the choice is too closely aligned with your specific needs. Yet here are some suggestions:
His coaching programs, The Freedom Series and the 3% Club, are both excellent ways to work with Bob Proctor and his company. The Freedom Series will help you tap your inner power and realize that you are capable of doing something incredible with your life. The 3% Club—based on the fact that 3 percent of the population earns 97 percent of the money in the world—will help you learn how to earn wealth by sharing the secrets of building a financial empire.
Before paying for tapes in The Freedom Series or becoming a member of the 3% Club, I suggest you first visit each program’s website to get more information. Each site (www.thefreedomseries.com & www.3percentclubonline.com) offers its own contact information if you have additional questions.
Another way to get started with Bob Proctor is to read his book You Were Born Rich. It gives you a very good sense of his methods and beliefs, providing motivation, inspiration, and practical advice on how to improve your life. For an example on Bob’s message in writing, here is a small excerpt from one of his articles about persistence:
Let me give you four relatively simple steps that will help you to turn persistence into a habit. These steps can be followed by virtually anyone.
1. Have a clearly defined goal. The goal must be something you are emotionally involved with, something you want very much. (In the beginning, you may not even believe that you can accomplish it—the belief will come.)
2. Have a clearly established plan that you can begin working on immediately. (Your plan will very likely only cover the first and possibly the second stage of the journey to your goal. As you begin executing your plan, other steps required to complete your journey will be revealed at the right time.)
3. Make an irrevocable decision to reject any and all negative suggestions that come from friends, relatives, or neighbors. Do not give any conscious attention to conditions or circumstances that appear to indicate the goal cannot be accomplished.
4. Establish a mastermind group of one or more people who will encourage, support, and assist you wherever possible.

Other highlights
During Bob’s first seminar with agents from Prudential Life Insurance Company of America in Chicago, he suggested that any agent could write $5 million in business that year if he/she made a decision to do so. The suggestion seemed implausible because the year was already half-over, and no agent in that region had ever written so much business in the company’s history. But once one agent actually reached this mark, Bob established himself as a reputable motivator.
