Becoming Wealthy
I want you to take a moment and make a mental picture in your mind, then close your eyes and imagine… just imagine…
Yes, it starts with your imagination….
Money Does Not Choose Who to Come To
The beautiful thing about money is that it really doesn’t choose or discriminate anyone. It doesn’t care what color or race you are, what position you hold, what your parents have, do, or did, and you’re damn right it doesn’t care who you think you are. Every day you wake to a new day with a clock reset so that no matter what mistakes or failures you made yesterday, the new day presents you with a new beginning to do better and you will have the same rights and opportunities like everyone else in this world who has made it in life to make as much as you want from what the universe has to offer. You have only yourself and your doubts to hold you back.
What Is Your Definition of Wealth?
So, how will you define wealth? Take your time and think deep and carefully, because your definition of wealth is what will determine and push you towards your success if you’re going to be wealthy. Think about it without your definition of wealth, how are you doing to be certain that you’re moving in the right direction, how are you doing to measure your milestones success? Without the definition how will you know that what you’re doing and the methods you’re using are helpful to you?
Have Measurable Objectives
Setting up objectives for yourself is like establishing a path timeline for your journey and to reach that destination you need to complete each and every objective you have set for yourself. It’s not that difficult really if you think about carefully. For example, if you know you are going to drive to a certain place, it will really make sense if: 1. You know what time you will be leaving, 2. What time you expect to arrive at your destination, 3. What path or route you are going to take, and 4. What you will be doing when you get at that certain place. What I am saying is, you will want to know in advance what wealth means to you, how you intend to get wealthy and how long you expect it to you to get wealthy.
You Can’t Be Lazy and Wanting to Be Wealthy
Most people out there are too lazy to work for on themselves and for themselves to become wealthy. They may show interest and say they want to be wealthy, but they don’t. They may take a risk and gamble they hard-earned cash from their savings as a sort of halfhearted gesture of wanting to be wealthy, but yet they aren’t prepared to work hard. They aren’t prepared to make sacrifice and get out of their comfort zone, learn, ask for help, work their butts off, put in much effort and make it a determined and concentrated focus of their life. If you’re truly want to be wealthy, your burns and sweat will tell you that, you are moving in the right direction and doing something right. So don’t give up! Never GIVE UP…!
Excuses Are a Dream Killer
A lot of people whine a lot about not having enough to spare to start a business, they make lots of excuses, they may have started something and work, but they might be not hard enough or not in the right ways to get them where they want to be, and they sit and hope that all their problems will simply just vanish into thin air. Well guess what? They won’t go away. They’re more likely to escalate to worse than there are already are. If you’re struggling financially and wondering how to make more money or just a little, for those things that matter to you and your loved ones, you need to take positive actions and execute those actions. Because I promise you that shot of hitting that jackpot, nothing’s going to change unless you do.
Find Your Vision of Where You Want to Be
Clarifying your vision is one of the most powerful ways to bring instantaneous change into your life. Having a vision is like traveling into time and seeing the future of the life you will be living. It’s an image that will give you energy, feel hopeful and excited when you look at it knowing that you will succeed. It’s a future reality that you are willing to work, risk and sacrifice for, because the reward from your sleepless nights, pain and sweat will be greater than all that you sacrificed.
Think Big
'Thinking big' means being able to dream and visualize what you can achieve on an audacious scale: with no limits on your thinking. It is about being open-minded, positive, creative and seeing opportunity in the big picture.
Ignore Naysayers
Mahatma Gandhi once said “First they ignore you. Then they laugh at you. Then they fight you. Then you win.” At one point in our lives, we are bound to meet naysayers, be it colleagues, acquaintances, friends, or even close friends and family. Naysayers are termed as such because their favorite response is “nay.” DO NOT waste your time trying to justify yourself to them, concentrate on your goals and vision. Believe me someday they will come back once they see that what you are doing is well profitable. And when they do come! Welcome them, DO NOT lecture, or shame them.
Work Your Ass Off
Joining a business doesn’t mean you will automatically become wealthy! You can’t be lazy and expect a hot meal to lend on your laps, you can’t sleep and compete with the dead and expect to wake up tomorrow with millions of dollars in your bank account! You need to invest you time in working your ass off towards your goals, spend those seconds, minutes and hours tackling those objectives you set for yourself.
Learn to Give Back
Why is it so important to find a cause you love and volunteer your time? Spending time enriching your community is a great way to broaden your perceptions of the world. By immersing yourself in a community and surrounding yourself with people who are dedicated to bettering the world, you can learn so much about how the world works. You gain a unique sense of purpose by serving those around you, one which often manifests in other areas of your life.
In The End
Let me just remind you that, we are living in a changing world where organizations no longer require human resources to work direct in contact with the customers due to the current pandemic situation the world is facing. Online services are taking over what used to be human beings’ services. Believe me when I say online business is the new corporate world!!! Let me leave this for the next article…
