subject: Make Money Fast - Just Like Abc [print this page] Often times people do not have the desire to make money fast until their circumstances dictate a need to do so. This reminds me of a story which I was once told. A man is sitting on his porch with his dog. A passerby glances at the dog and notices that the dog is laying right on a nail. When the person asks the owner why the dog does not get off of the nail, the dog's owner responds, "It doesn't hurt enough for him to move." Often times we are the same way when it comes to money. While we are clearly struggling along the way living paycheck to paycheck, we only are motivated to make money fast when are circumstances become dire, such as a layoff.
Often times people do not change unless they experience pain. For instance, a person who I went to law school with was only motivated to study after receiving poor grades in his first year. Prior to that, he said he would go home and watch "Saved By The Bell" reruns rather than study. Similarly, the fact that we have so many bills to pay and are barely getting by is a reminder that we do not make enough money. Furthermore, watching our friends, family, or others on the news who are in similar positions to ourselves experience a tragedy often causes us to take steps to improve our lives.
The fact of the matter is that we will never run out of negative events in this world. In light of this fact, how are we to stay motivated? I think you will find a few answers below, listed from A to Z.
A. Accomplish your goals by shutting the door on negativity. Eleanor Roosevelt was once quoted as saying, "The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." Along with self-discipline and desire, belief is one of the three core principles of successful people.
B. Believe in the fact that you can accomplish your goals. The most successful people in the world believe strongly that what they dream of will become a reality.
C. Consider each circumstance from all angles. You must see that motivation is fostered by desire. To fully understand each circumstance, you have to be able to see things from different perspectives.
D. Do not ever give up on yourself. Learn from those before you who have experienced major disappointments, but have gone on to have great success. If you need some motivation, just read the stories of Bill Gates, Thomas Edison, and Danny DeVito.
E. Enjoy the things that you have and make them your focus. Often times people focus on what they do not have, which attracts more of the same. If you focus on a lack of money, you will attract more debt. Instead, you need to focus on the things which make you happy in your life. Do not hesitate to be silly and laugh for no reason. Even an act as simple as smiling for no reason will actually lift your emotional state. Keep in mind that when we are happy, we become motivated.
F. Friends and Family must never be taken for granted. Great friends are hard to find, and we cannot live without family. Do not lose sight of this.
G. Get after it! Go beyond the call of duty. When you take such action, you will become motivated beyond belief.
H. Hold on to those dreams and do not lose sight of them. Never allow anyone to tell you that you are not good enough. This includes yourself. While your dreams may take longer than you like for them to come true, they are a driving factor which keeps your motivated. If you give them time and effort, they will come true.
I. Ignore and say a prayer for anyone who tries to stand in your way. There is not one individual on this planet who can rightfully tell you that you cannot do something with good intentions. Anyone who does, should be ignored and avoided.
J. Just focus on being yourself. Do not live your life for others. If you try and do this, you will fail to achieve your own goals.
K. Keep trying no matter how hard life may seem. When a person is motivated, eventually he or she sees a harsh life finally clearing out, paving the way to self improvement.
L. Learn to love yourself. That should be a slow pitch softball.
M. Make things happen, do not let them happen. Motivation is when your dreams are put to work until they come to fruition.
N. Never engage in dishonest behavior. You will undoubtedly come into contact with opportunities to make money fast which clearly require that you take money, rather than make money. These get rich quick schemes are unethical. Stay away from activities which require that you prosper at someone else's expense.
O. Open your eyes. People should learn the horse attitude and horse sense. They only see things in two ways: 1) How they want things to be and; 2) How things should be.
P. Practice is what makes the big show go smoothly. We practice so that we do not make mistakes when we are playing for keeps. Repetitive action allows us to compensate for errors.
Q. Quitters do not get ahead, and those who get ahead do not ever quit. Thus, it looks at though you have two choices. You can either choose to give up and stay where you are, or keep going and get to the place that you dream about.
R. Ready, set, go. By first being ready, you will achieve the motivation and confidence to take action. Our internal voice tells us to get a head start. Back before Mike Tyson got a face tattoo, and was heavy weight champion of the world, someone asked him why he started training at 4:00 a.m. He said, "Because none of my contenders wake up and start their training at 4:00 a.m."
S. Stop procrastinating. Remember the Nike slogan, "Just Do It"? This is what they meant.
T. Take control of your own environment. When you exude self-control and discipline, you are able to stay motivated. These are core competencies which successful people share.
U. Understand then be understood. For all of you who are good talkers, you need to become even better listeners.
V. Visualize your success before it happens. Every successful person does this due to the fact that it is extremely powerful. When you visualize the situation which you dream of, your mind subconsciously works towards making it a reality.
W. Want to achieve success more than anything. In other words, you have to want to achieve your goals so badly that others see your behavior as borderline obsessive. Constantly dream about achieving your goals, as dreaming is believing. Wanting success is at the root of motivation.
X. X Factors are what separate you from everyone else. These are things which are intangible, and cannot be measured.
Y. Yes, YOU are unique. No one in this world looks, acts, or talks like you. Even if you have an identical twin you still have things both inside and out which make you unique. Value your life and existence, because you only get to spend it once.
Z. Zero in on what it is that you want to accomplish. If it is your goal to make money fast, do not stop until you accomplish this goal.
