The secret.
Basically, if we work hard on our job we can get by or even make a living. But if we learn to work hard on ourselves, we can make a fortune.
We don't need to make outer changes or even change jobs, or try to change the government to get increase for ourselves. We need to work on our inner self.
We need to seek to become better than we were before. Better than yesterday, last week, and last year. The main factor that creates success for anyone is becoming a better you.
We have the same 24 hours in a day that rich people have. We have the same time as those who are more poor than us.
What is the poor person doing compared to ourselves, with their time? What is the rich person doing?
Poorer people are probably working for minimum wage and giving the same value to the market place for this amount of pay.
Rich people are providing the world with much more value within the same time frame. Thus being wealthy.
Average wealth is tied to a value system somewhere in-between which provides an average value form the masses in the world. Our paycheck is average.
No one can really take care of you unless you're wiling to do it yourself - and this includes people who have addictions, (smoking, sex, drugs, alcohol, gambling, shopping and etc.). It takes a commitment to improve your own being - mind, body and spirit in order for one to truly become the person that he/she can potentially be and achieve in the course of a lifetime. This would include personal happiness, great health, monetary wealth, career achievements, (which includes running a successful online business), a spiritual relationship with their God and so on.
This is one of those articles, Rick that should be read by ALL WA members if anything just for motivation. To be blunt I don't make that statement all that often either!
