Will “Power” Duquette Delivers as a Success Coach, pg. 83
THE SHIFT
Will Duquette says Donald Trump offers the classic
example of how wealthy people think differently. When
Trump was $900 million in debt, he didn’t hide like most
would. So what did he do? Operating from that millionaire
mindset, he attended a cocktail party with those creditors
that he owed $900 million to. Gutsy, right. Yet, in a side
room at that event, Trump surrounded himself with this
mastermind group, and not only seriously discounted this
sum, but leveraged their wisdom to craft a massive success
plan. Trump is now worth almost $9 BILLION, and is run-
ning for U.S. president.
So if you want different results, you’ve got to take differ-
ent actions.
But beyond just curating the success habits of others;
Duquette has lived it himself. When he was young, he was
always told that his family couldn’t afford things.
When he found out that he was going to have his own
child – that’s when it changed everything, and created a
new sense of urgency. He didn’t want that to be the story he
had to tell his daughter. Still, he admits that it took several
shifts and years for him to make his own ultimate leap.
Because most of what he teaches today just wasn’t shared
or known back then.
HOW WILL GOT THE
POWER IN 7 QUICK STEPS:
1. Got fired from the rat race after calling in sick for
having pneumonia
2. Opened his own business
3. Began investing in real estate to make bigger chunks
of money
4. Discovered the power of blind faith belief
5. Accepted his ‘license to make mistakes’
6. Learned how to manage and change his own perspec-
tive on happiness
7. Decided his apex was in significance through helping
others, not just making money
THE 4 KEYS TO WILL’S PERSONAL SUCCESS
When Duquette started on his adventure the close-knit
group that was banking huge in speaking and sales weren’t
sharing their secrets. They kept those closely guarded. Yet,
he found a way. And he credits his own success to four
main factors.
• Vowing to never give up
• Modeling success wherever he could find it
• Investing big in education
• Just taking action

Duquette says the really significant quantum leaps came
when he forced himself to step out of his comfort zone and
chose to “pay more than comfortable with” for better train-
ing. In one case that meant putting $10K on a credit card
to really learn how to take his game to the next level. And
today, Will might not notice if ten thousand dollars dropped
out of his billfold on the way to the podium.
UNIQUE PERSPECTIVES ON REAL ESTATE
Duquette trains real estate speakers and investors, and
still invests in real estate himself. While you may find him
gracing the stage at events in London, Prague, and Ger-
many, Duquette’s home base is in Jacksonville, FL. While
often overlooked by others; ‘Jax’ is the largest city in the
contiguous United States, and the most populous city in
Florida. It has also been praised by RealtyTrac as offering
the biggest profit margins for house flippers. But you don’t
have to tell Duquette that. He once bought a half a million
dollar home with just $10 out of pocket, and has mastered a
transaction engineering skill set that allows him to invest in
many properties with nothing down. Duquette says it is all
about “looking for problems and finding solutions.”
While he says that world travel and international train-
ing has revealed that all people essentially have the same
fears, challenges, and belief issues, he himself certainly has
a unique perspective, and style, that is proving itself with
dollars and changed lives. He claims to be perhaps one of
the only people to not have lost a penny in 17 years of real
estate investing. His high energy, experiential real estate
events that include live deal making have produced profits
for attendees before they are done with their homework.
And the ‘Profits in Pretty Houses’ course is reportedly
one of the first and only to include a flow chart so that in-
vestors are never stuck, or wondering what comes next.
Looking forward Duquette says the market is just like it
was seventeen years ago, only better. “Because all the fun-
damentals are right, but others are scared to take advantage
of the opportunities on sale.” As well as noting that rather
than hurting his business, “massive buying sprees by hedge
funds have actually helped” his business, as “they have
depleted inventory levels”, and make his properties more in
demand.
