author and speaker Jim Rohn says that ” if you keep doing what you have always done, you will keep getting what you have always got.” and the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. look,if what you have been doing were working you will be happy now.
physicists tell us that nothing in this world is static,everything alive is constantly changing. and if you are not growing then you are dying. the only way to master something is keep on doing it. if you notice my passion is to keep on developing and help others to develop too and that is why everyday i feel that i must post an article for me to read and share with others also.read in
your success
i understand that success is a learn able skill. i can learn to succeed at anything. if i want to be a great pianist i can,if i want to be a great golfer,i can learn on how to do it. and if you want to be happy,you can learn how to do it. even if you want to be rich ,you can learn how to do it. it doesn’t matter where you are right now. it doesn’t matter who are right now. it doesn’t matter where you are starting from, right now. what matters is that you are willing to learn.
remember that every master was insignificant one time. No one comes out of the womb a great golfer,a great financial guru, a great pianist, a great economist. every person learned how to succeed. for example Bill gates learned how to create a great company in the world(Microsoft), Warren Buffet learned how to be a great investor, Tiger woods learned how to be a great golfer and so on.read in
The true meaning of wealth
the fastest way to master a skill is to work on yourself into a “successful” person. again your outer world is a reflection of the inner world. you are the root and your results are the fruits. also remember that the goal of mastering is skill is not to be admired or have a lot money but is to grow and become the best person you can possibly be. the world renowned singer Madonna was asked why she kept on changing her persona,her music and her style every year. she responded that her music was her way to express her “self” and that reinventing herself each year forces her to grow into the kind of person she wants to be.
therefore success is not “what” it is all about “who”. the goodness is that the “who” is trainable and learn able. i welcome you the personal growth,because it is the only way we can express who we are and be able to unleash the powers within us and share the talents an gift we have with the rest of the people. if you have been touched leave a donation below,any amount is welcomed, it is one way of keeping connecting and having the feeling good of serving. donate now.
success is a learnable skill and you can learn to succeed at anything
September 29, 2008The true meaning of wealth
September 29, 2008yesterday i wrote an article about the true meaning of success,many people wrote to me telling me how the articles touched them and some people asked if i can write again maybe talk about the true measure of wealth. some one wrote an interesting email and asked me how much do you make?, then i thought why couldn’t he ask me ” what is your net worth?”. i know very few people will ask such kind of a question.
Then,as seen from above what is the true measure of wealth, is it the income pay you get every week/month/year or is it the net worth of the financial value of everything you own. what do you think?. people who value pay check will measure wealth in terms of the much they can earn and therefore will admire someone who is pay check reads $30million a month and to satisfy the ego they choose immediate gratification, you have a car,you make more money and you get a better car. you have a house,you make more money and you get a bigger house. you have clothes,you make more money and you get nicer clothes. you have holidays,you make more money and you spend more on holidays. of course there are exceptions to this rule….very few. in general as income goes up,expenses almost invariably goes up and that is why income alone will not make you wealth.
But once you understand that your net worth is the ultimate measure of wealth whereby you can easily turn your assets into cash i.e the bonds,real estate,the current value of your business,the value of the residence you are staying on if own it and then subtract everything you owe.
how to build the net worth
building a net worth is a situation whereby you take a blank sheet of paper and title it “Net worth”. then you start by creating a simple chart that begins with Zero and ends with whatever your net worth objective will be. remember that your current net worth is as it is today. then update it quarterly. like now when i learn about this, i started with nothing and doubling every quarter meaning i divided the net worth into four areas: my regular income,savings,investments and simplifications.
working income is the money i earned from active work. and in this case my wife was the one who is working and therefore we count the money there and also i had passive income from our current training business which gives us a profit at the end of the month. let us not forget that working income is very important because it can address the other three areas for example the more income you earn the more you can be able to save and invest. unfortunately many people put their focus on the working income out of the four other areas mentioned above. consequently they end up with a low net worth or none.
many of us earn but don’t keep any of it. without creating income to fill the funnel and savings to keep it there it is impossible to make an investment. but once you begin a decent savings from your income,then you can make your money grow through investment. and the better you are at investing the faster you can make your money grow and generate a better net worth this will make you realise how important your net worth is and therefore decrease your living expenses as you increase your savings and make more investments. this is what we call simplification. this is why you read of rich people driving old cars,some living in apartments and so on .
by tracking your net worth,you are focusing on it,and because what you focus on expands,your net worth will expand” where attention goes,energy flows”.
