Exponential Income Growth......... With Hard Work
Before you ask, No, this is neither a fraudulent get rich quick scheme or a bunch of BS. It is facts we all know but for one reason or another have chosen to ignore and relegate to the deepest recesses of our mind. Let's start with a story of two men
John and Ashley work 9-5 jobs. John and Ashley are both paid #70000. John and Ashley request for a raise, it is approved and they both get an extra #5000. John is elated. He sees this extra #5000 as the cash needed to take his wife on that vacation she has always wanted. Ashley is not satisfied with the extra #5000 but he knows he can't ask for another raise immediately and he still needs the security of his 9-5 job, albeit temporarily . Ashley takes this extra #5000 and invests it in his side job that could eventually make him a millionaire.
John and Ashley are given the same opportunity. They both react differently. Long story short, John is still stuck in his mediocre 9-5 job, Ashley is almost hitting his first million.
What is the difference between John and Ashley? Mindset.
The John and Ashley story is one we see played out almost everyday. One person is satisfied with what he has, one person refuses to settle for what he has because he knows he can get more. Most of the time, the person with more ambition ends up successful and sometimes, their success comes at the time when the less ambitious one starts making excuses for why he couldn't succeed.
How ambitious are you? Is your income enough for you? Do you want more? Can you put in the work for more? Some may disagree, but in measuring the success of a person, money plays a major role. Are you ready to earn more? It begins from the mind. Here are some mental hacks.
Make Your Comfort Zone Uncomfortable
If you must reach for the stars, you can not do it from the ground. You have to develop a dislike for where you currently are and tell yourself that you want more. It goes beyond just telling yourself though. You have to mean it and live it and this involves doing away with old habits and places and people.
Any genuinely ambitious person is wary of complacency. Being complacent makes you feel like you've achieved all and there's really not much to do. Complacency can make someone who's reaching for the stars decide to settle for the oxygen in the atmosphere and be comfortable about it.
You can't afford to be the guy who decides to go see a movie in the weekend when he could be reading a book.
Act Your Wage
There is absolutely no way you can become a billionaire with a millionaire mindset ( and I'm not talking about spending here, I'm talking about WORK ethic ). You should be ready and willing to work 12 hour days and keep a keen focus on your ultimate objective. Do not major on the minors, do not leave the pursuit of a million dollar quest for the immediate gratification of a hundred dollar side quest.
If your mindset is hindering you, you need to start acting your wage. Show the world what you can deliver.
See Your Success (Ignore everything else)
Where do you see yourself in another 5 years? Where do you see yourself in another 5 months? How far we go is a function of how far we see. Write your vision and make it play. Visualize your success, not your failures. Unfortunately, most people believe more in the reality of their failure than their success. They think about losing their friends, jobs, house, and crashing their cars when they should have their mind set on success.
What do you see? Failure? Poverty? Or Success?
You're are worth whatever price tag you give yourself, never more.
Give!
Absurd right? How do you grow your income if you keep giving your income? However, it is a law of nature. The universe is constantly giving to us, it also demands that we give back. Those who do not give voluntarily will be forced to give involuntarily, like it or not.
By not giving, you're robbing other people. For instance, Pete says he can't give cause he barely has enough. Because of this thought, the universe forces him to give his time, energy and money to causes he didn't approve of like working jobs he hates. The best time to give is when you don't feel like. If you constantly give, you constantly receive ( it's in the constitution)
