In the network, and often in various trainings and even in books, wise advice is given on how to get motivated to make money. And not just money for bread and butter, that is, for a comfortable existence. Namely big money, huge money. With a cursory reading, everything seems to be fair. In fact, it is fraught with a lot of absolutely harmful advice that can distort the psyche and life of a person if he decides to act as prescribed in the councils.
We understand. I give the tips themselves in italics, my explanations - in regular font.
1. Analyze your prospects for the future, leaving unchanged the situation for today - what awaits you when you can no longer work.
To think about distant prospects is an absolutely ungrateful occupation. In the world in general and in our life in particular, there are millions of events that we cannot influence in any way, but which can break the house of cards of our long-term plans in a single moment. This is very well expressed in the saying "If you want to make God laugh, tell him about your plans."
All this does not mean that you need to live for today, without thinking about the future. By the principle, it is now dry, warm - and come what may. This behavior is normal for women with their tactical thinking, but not for men. There is a much more productive move than to build hypothetical graphs of revenue growth. First, appreciate your strength. What are you strong at? What area of life do you know best? Where can you do what others cannot? In which field are you able to produce a unique product that you will buy? And dance from that.
And most importantly - set a goal. What do you want from life?
2. Talk with retirees - what they say, what they wear, how they live on a penny pension - do you want the same?
The revelation of this nonsense has long been formulated by the people themselves: "From prison and from scrip, do not reproach yourself."
3. Make it a rule for a whole month to come into contact only with the atmosphere of success. Watch programs and films about the rich, visit places accessible to people with a thick wallet, go to expensive shops - find out what is available for successful people, read books about the powerful. Spend an entire month exploring the atmosphere of success.
To wind in oneself the fierce envy of the “successful” and craving for the sweet world of consumption - this is what the adherence to this advice can give. Nothing more. Exclusively destructive emotions. Greed, envy, and a desire to squander money not yet earned. Or try to make money - especially for tranzherstva.
“visit places accessible to people with a thick wallet” - the whole absurdity of this advice is that if you have a thin wallet, you will not be allowed into these places. And if already fat - then why are you reading these crazy tips?
"walk on expensive shops - find out what is available for successful people" - I will answer this question secretly. Almost the same as people with a normal (normal) income level. Only much more expensive - because of the brands, couture, exclusive and other nonsense.
“Spend a whole month studying the atmosphere of success” - the trap for the poor here is that he is not acquainted with the atmosphere of success, but with the atmosphere of status consumption. The atmosphere of success - it is in difficult negotiations with partners who want to throw you. In a war with competitors who, according to reports, are going to organize a raider seizure of your company. In blackmail by officials and security forces. Masked show. In complete isolation from the world because of the fear that this passer-by will shoot in front of your five-year-old son. In crowds of arrogant cameras, who find a way to take a picture of even the act of your defecation. This is the atmosphere of success. Do you want this? Think over the answer.
4. Analyze your classmates, peers. Only those who are more successful than you - Do you want to be a loser?
A great way to cultivate the envy of others and drive your own self-esteem under the shkonar. And the result from these victims will be zero. After all, if you are the son of a teacher and a chauffeur, why should you measure hoses with someone whose father is a deputy and mother is a minister? You initially stood at different stretches of distance. You are at the start, and he is a meter away from the finish. Even if you ran twice as fast as the world record, you would not beat it. Just because it was enough for him to take a couple of steps - and win. So why compare yourself with it? Pat your nerves? Burn with fierce envy to him? Convince yourself of your own worthlessness?
It is much more productive to compare today's self with yesterday’s self. What did you do useful, productive for a certain period of time? How did you get closer to your goal? Have you made a step forward - even if only a small one? If not, then what prevented? How can this interference be eliminated? What are the opportunities to accelerate the movement? Does your movement bring a concrete practical result? These are the questions you need to answer yourself. And do not measure ranks with others.
5. Make a list of your desires - if possible with photos. Opposite everyone write its cost. Calculate the total amount. Now divide it by your monthly income - How many lives you will need to achieve all your desires.
Advice for the young consumer. Why for a young man? Because this clause, like clause 3, fits perfectly into the stage of the instinctive realization of a man. That is, in the developmental stage, characteristic of the late adolescence. That is an immature personality. I do not know of any truly wealthy, successful person who so passionately fapal on pictures of sports cars, yachts and mansions. Not even because they can afford it. And because they are not interested in them for a long time. They grew out of short pants of the instinctive realization stage. They do not buy things because it is "cool", "cool", "like a Pawson."
They buy things only because of the "must". And if you do not - do not buy. They do not need to raise their visual rank. After all, "Henry Ford is still Henry Ford in a T-shirt."
The desire to grab as much as possible status, luxurious things gives the person a notorious rogue who by all means seeks to improve their visual rank. And it does not matter how much money he has. Even with a billion dollars, you can remain a notorious beggary.
I will give another advice. Remove from your purchases all that does not carry the vital functions you need. Everything is "fashionable", "cool", "new", "stylish", "latest model". Everything is "for the soul", "nyashnoe", "mimishnoe". Everything "to go nuts like this is none of Cavo from our department!". All this consumer bool, with the help of which corporations force you to work in three jobs in order to spend all the income on the "latest model."
And you will be surprised how much, it turns out, you actually have free money. Money that can bring you new money.
6. Calculate your finances - how much is enough for them in case of force majeure. If this period is less than 20 years - you should think about.
Something planning horizon is too small. Plan years so on 500. God mode, figs whether.
By the way. And what will happen if, after 35 years, the Earth has split a giant comet? Can you survive in outer space? If the answer is "no" - you should think.
7. Accumulate quite a serious amount for you. - about 2-3 monthly incomes and allow yourself to shish about them - take a break, buy yourself something, please yourself and love yourself, drop all the problems and just relax for a while - and REMEMBER THE FEELING OF JOY AND PLEASURE THAT WILL BE INSIDE YOU. Would you also like to live a large part of your life? Then what are you waiting for?
Again the stage of instinctive realization is in its full brightness. As well as the legend that the rich 365 days a year chic on estuaries. However, there is nothing strange in such a judgment. Nishekrody have no idea what life really is not even the fact that very rich people, but simply wealthy. I'll try to open the veil and say something incredible for the poor man's ear. For example, that many rich people over the years do not go on a full vacation. And if they are sailing on a yacht, then again with partners - that is, they actually work, and don't let the exotic surroundings bother you.
But the poor man still continues to think that being rich is an eternal rest and entertainment.
"Only idleness
There is no smell.
How many chokes
Swindler rich
Very unimportant
He smells guys! "
(Jani Rodari, the "steal" singer)
I suffer a question - well, explain to me how a person became rich, how he preserves and multiplies his wealth, if he doesn't do a damn thing?
I will give another recommendation. Start something. And achieve even a small, intermediate - but the result. Tangible, concrete result of your efforts. And then you will have a real feeling of joy and pleasure inside. Not from the attendants merged into someone else's pocket, but from the feeling that you are SMOG. Pleasure from the appeared self-confidence and the forces.
8. Find successful people with disabilities in your city. That is, people who have any health problems, but who are successful and enjoy life. Talk to them. If you are too lazy to do this, then enter the Paralympic Games in the search engine. Read about those who without arms or legs wins Olympic medals. And what's stopping you to start changing your life?
The only more or less productive advice. Convince yourself that if he is disabled, could, then you are a healthy guy, you can definitely.
9. Arrange a freelance reporter in any newspaper and start interviewing famous people in your city about their lives and successes. Feel the taste of victory, find out how they went to this, recharge them with energy.
Do you really think that by asking on duty questions, you will find out the inside of a rich life and the path to success? Naivety, my friend. No man will tell you the truth. Neither about the bought officials, nor about the killed competitors, nor about the thrown workers, nor about the criminal connections of the government and business. All that you will receive in your interview is a set of template phrases, such as these tips that we analyze. And that's all. No one will give you a map from the point of "poor man" to the point of "rich man."
The reasons, I hope, are clear. You will not learn anything until you go this way yourself. Therefore, rather than trying to copy others like a monkey, is it not better to understand that you personally can do this and pay for it?
10. Start visiting all the places where the elite of your city gathers - Exhibitions, trainings, meetings, restaurants, clubs and so on. Start communicating with those who are more successful than you.
To begin with, in those places where the elite gather, no one will let you go. And if they let you in, nobody will talk to you there. Because you for them - no one, useless external noise. And these people are very, very well able to get rid of what does not give them a specific, useful result for them. Therefore, no matter how much you try to “start communicating” with them, they will ignore you. Because you, I repeat, are not carrying specific benefits for them.
Until you become useful to them, no one will even say hello to you.
We end up with the fact that you simply do not have enough money for such establishments. And if with a stretch is enough - is it not better to let them into the present business, and not in an attempt to “feel the atmosphere of power”? No need to run ahead of the train. This atmosphere will come to you with the very power - if you, of course, will do the work, and not draw in your imagination castles in the air.
Thus, having completed at least 3 points out of 10, you will really understand that something needs to be changed.
If you follow all 10 - you will already begin to move towards success. Since the last 2 points already imply certain actions from you and the tension of the brain convolutions.
"The kid went to success." Cool.
It seems to be all. Nothing else. That is nothing, the absence of something. A set of verbiage. Do you know why? Because all these tips at best give an answer to the question: "How to get ready to do something." But to gather is not to do. No matter how much I intend to cut off the bread, it will never be cut off. Because it is not necessary to cut off, it is necessary to cut off.
Because in fact, the path to success lies in one word.
DO IT.
