We were not taught financial literacy in school. It takes a lot of work and time to change your thinking and to become financially literate.
Those who have safe and secure jobs pay more taxes than those who own the business that provides the jobs
If you want to be rich the rule of thumb is to teach others how to be rich.
It's not what you say out of your mouth that determines your life,it's what you whisper to yourself that has the most power!
Entrepreneurs don't finish when we are tired. We finish when we are done.
We all have defining moments. It is in these moments that we find our true characters. We become heroes or cowards; truth tellers or liars; we go forward or we go backward.
Rich people buy luxuries last, while the poor and middle class tend to buy luxuries first.
Broke is temporary, poor is eternal.
Rule One. You must know the difference between an asset and a liability, and buy assets. If you want to be rich, this is all you need to know. It is Rule No. 1. It is the only rule. This may sound absurdly simple, but most people have no idea how profound this rule is. Most people struggle financially because they do not know the difference between an asset and a liability.
I find so many people struggling, often working harder, simply because they cling to old ideas. They want things to be the way they were; they resist change. I know people who are losing their jobs or their houses, and they blame technology or the economy or their boss. Sadly they fail to realize that they might be the problem. Old ideas are their biggest liability. It is a liability simply because they fail to realize that while that idea or way of doing something was an asset yesterday, yesterday is gone.
Network marketing gives people the opportunity, with very low risk and very low financial commitment, to build their own income-generating asset and acquire great wealth.
Don't let the fear of losing be greater than the excitement of winning.
If you want to change your life, begin by changing your words. Start speaking the words of your dreams, of who you want to become, not the words of fear or failure.
The philosophy of the rich and the poor is this: the rich invest their money and spend what is left. The poor spend their money and invest what is left.
