I even have spent the last 20 years answering three questions:
- How did the wealthy get wealthy?
- Why are the poor poor? and
- How do wealthy and poor people spend their time day-after-day?
I learned quite a bit.
Much of the information I collected over the course of my five-year study of the habits of the wealthy indicated that it was the wealthy’s every day habits, their attitudes toward scarcity, and the alternatives they made in life that distinguished the wealthy from the poor.
Another discovery I made, particularly in relation to the query of how the wealthy got wealthy, was that there have been one in all 4 paths to wealth, tied to your particular personality profile, that led to wealth creation. If you desired wealth and selected the fitting path to wealth that suit your particular personality, then you definitely were almost guaranteed wealth, or at the very least financial independence, after you retired.
Yet I’m consistently asked by the media whether I even have discovered a “secret” to constructing wealth.
After much thought, I discovered a secret and here it’s:
The secret to constructing wealth might be summed up in only two words:
Steady and relentless
- Continuous and relentless learning – formal (course/curriculum/degree) or informal (self-study)
- Constant and tireless pursuit of dreams
- Constantly and tirelessly achieving the goals behind every dream you pursue
- Focus consistently and relentlessly in your goal – who or what you would like to be in ten, fifteen or twenty years
- Constant and tireless, focused motion – every day measures to comprehend your dreams and goals
- Steady and relentless constructing of every revenue stream – one revenue stream at a time
- Consistently and tirelessly construct relationships with influencers – An influencer is anyone who can allow you to realize your dreams and achieve your goals.
- Consistent and relentless saving and investing – Maintaining an ordinary of living that means that you can lower your expenses that you simply invest properly
