Reflections: Why can't I be rich?

Created on: February 27, 2007   Last Updated: December 08, 2011

You already are.

Assuming you're referring to being financially rich, rather than spiritually, emotionally, or any other kind of rich.

If you have an internet connection, a roof over your head, at least one hot, nutritious meal a day, a bed to sleep in, heating, security, an education, you're among the top 10% of richest people in the world.

What you're really asking for is more than your fair share. Admit it.

Once you can admit that, you know that what you need to do is take it from others. Take it from those that want to buy your products or services. Take it from those that would pay you for your time or your company. Take it from those who are to stupid to hang onto it for themselves.

Look at the positives. Don't ask "Why can't I be rich?", but "How am I going to get rich today?"

Work hard. Work smart. Don't complain. Have a goal (or two goals, or three) and stick to it.

And when you do, remember who gave you that valuable advice
