The Hidden Secret of Money.
I have always wondered why a lot of people do not have money even when there seems to be more than enough to go around. I thought it was a matter of having less capital to start up any business or even an issue of not being born with a golden spoon. Young people are known to always focus their minds more on fast, easy and quick money. This is why we have had an increase in lots of Ponzi schemes or get rich quick scams. I have always asked myself the very question I believe few people have asked or are about to ask. What did the billionaires of today's world do differently when they were younger?
This was the very question I have been asking myself over the years. I found out that these billionaires did not just become wealthy overnight. They must have started the journey of making money from the scratch. Now, the challenge we all have today is that we are focusing more on their result rather than their process.
You will always see where two or more young people are gathered discussing the amount of money or wealth these billionaires have acquired. Most times, this discussion goes into a fight when two persons decide to have different opinions from what is known. This happens all around us and every day yet, the moment you ask any of these guys what they want in life, they will immediately open their mouths and tell you that they want to become as rich as Mack Zuckerberg, Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk. How can you dream of becoming like them when you have not asked yourself that very question that should guide your path?
The Neglected Truth.
When something is not hidden but no one seems to care or want to know about it, that thing is said to be neglected. Something is standing right in front of you and it is your gateway to success but you decide to play a blind eye to it, you are just neglecting it. This is purely what is happening to our generation today. We are more focused on the output not on the input. If electronic appliances will always have input and output parts, why then do we think life is all about output? We wake up in the morning, eat breakfast and begin to do the very same thing we have been doing which has not given us any positive results.
Being wealthy starts from the mind and flows into the way and manner you handle things. Someone with a wealthy mindset will always seek a better way to do something others are already doing. Another point is that a person with a wealthy mindset will always look out for what is missing. Just as we all know the story of Mark Zuckerberg and Jeff Bezos, these people sort for what was missing at their time and they capitalised on it even when they did not know how the output will be. These days we waste our energy calculating how much profit we should make even when we have not invested yet in anything meaningful. Call a young friend and tell him about a business opportunity. You will be surprised that he will focus all his attention on the output instead of the input or process. This is why it seems as if money has gone too far from so many.
What you must do.
This will be a kind of conclusion and advice to anyone reading this. Recently I have dedicated more time to working online because I found out that there are millions of untapped wealth there. What I noticed was that most people will see these opportunities but since they are more focused on the output rather than the process, they will fall on the roadside. This is why most of these opportunities remain untapped or just in the hands of a few who were able to endure and follow the process. What these wealthy people have in common is diligence to process. They are more concerned about the process, and how they can solve a problem through their service. This is why they spend time, money and energy developing a single app because they foresee tomorrow. How often do you research the missing link in your community? Money can only come when you have a process that keeps working even when you are sleeping.
Jeff Bezos can decide to sleep in the space because he had put a process that keeps working even when he is not around. Build on the process and not on the output. When you focus on money, you will end up chasing it instead of making it come to you. Look at May Weather, even as a retired boxer he is still making millions from endorsements. This is because he spent his time practising just to become the best when he was an active boxer. Outsmart others by knowing the process with the tips of your fingers. Money or wealth will follow you.
