And just do what you love to do, truly.
There is a prize to anyone who can do the above, to pursue their passion relentlessly. When asked what your passion is, you should say "I love XXX", whatever it is. Stick with it. Stop trying to please that person, whoever they may be, be they your damned superior or your lower-leveled employee. If you're a pornstar, say it. If you're a murderer, God I hope you repent but say it anyway. Tell them you did it because you had to and because you love it (except the murderer part).
It's this mentality that makes you poor or just middle class. Negative thinking. Anyone can learn a few tricks to up their left (or top) financial column. But few can change their mindset so that they get rich and wealthy.
It doesn't matter if it's business, investing, or learning French. Just put that mindset on, the thinking cap on, and want it! Then pursue it and do it. Use the 3-second rule of approaching to this. Instead of 3 second only to approach a woman, you use 3 second only to work on a business or all deal are off. I don't care what kind of rule you setup, just make something up just so you'll do it.
There's more than enough knowledge out there but so much more in the way, learn to weed out the bad and use the good.
I already said it, it's this mindset that keeps you this way, and it's this same mindset that makes you greedy. Greed makes it hard for everyone to work with them. That's why bad investors like John T. Reed doesn't get rich or as rich as he would like it. Even John T. Reed said it himself.
Stop worrying about other people and worry about yourself. Too many people in this forum worry about other people. Stop acting like this forum is the only place to socialize, go out there and learn out there, not here.
Oh and keep this site a secret will you? Trying to teach other people when you haven't mastered the basics is exactly like shooting yourself with a high caliber gun. You're not out to save the world when you can't even get laid.
Hey, I'm sure I'll hurt someone's feeling and get flamed, that's too bad. They won't even observe the law of life and they want to make their own laws. No WONDER some people are so bitter.
The game in business or investing are both exciting and inspiring. And also frustrating.
It's something you have to deal with.
Exciting because of the possibilities. It brings out no other than yourself. It touches your personality and pushes and pulls you to do or think in ways you didn't think you were capable of or would do.
Inspiring because it's like a game, you are trying to reach your goal. And you see others doing the same. For those who aren't greedy it becomes inspiring and you get this great feeling after helping someone. It becomes a great deed.
Of course, it's frustrating and that is EXACTLY what stops 99% of the people that choose to do whatever endeavor they might choose.
They decide to lift weight and they stop because they can't make gains. I know that feeling. It happened to me. I got back to it and I persisted. Now I'm happy with where I am.
Frustrating because in business things don't go your way, OFTEN too. Guess what? There's a reason for the word creativity and why it's emphasized SO MUCH by many businessmen and investors. Great Albert Einstein once said:
Life isn't THAT hard. You have a computer. Life in Africa is hard. Life in poverty is hard. So stop with the depression too. Open your eyes and wake up! Look around you.
Here's an exercise I want you to do when you wake up. Instead of waking up and doing the usual. Sit there in the bed. Shut up. Don't say anything. Just sit there. Observe.
The point of the exercise is simple and you will notice more than I can put in text. It'll give you a new perspective there that says something like "wow, I have so much more than most people. Hm..." And maybe then you can go and do what you have to do. And do it with that in mind.
GET YOUR MIND IN ORDER.
Forget trying to read for 10 years or finding the right seminar. Got fooled for a seminar? Oh well. Just do what YOU think is right. No amount of schooling or education can get you rich or wealthy or let you reach your goal.
You read on the internet someone like Page or the next Joe succeeds in doing what they wanted to do. Testimony after testimony, the verifiable ones. And you wonder how they do it that they became millionaires or that they made $1,000 week after week.
And you're sitting here. Why do you think you aren't getting anywhere?
I have seen people get up and people get down.
It didn't matter what life they came from. It didn't matter if they were Ivy League graduate or JHS dropout. They did it.
But NOOOOO. What do we have? "No, it's not possible, it can't be done, certainly not, this is stupid, it's a scam, it's a get-rich-quick scam, Carleton Sheets scam?, nah no time, if I see someone buy it and get rich, he just got lucky, if I see someone buy it and do what the program ask to do, I'll laugh, ok maybe I won't."
You heard it, it's everywhere. Negativity is everywhere and that's what makes people so average. It's so easy to say no than to say yes.
If I asked you to invent something by tomorrow or you die, you would do it, you're saying yes because your life is on the line.
But if it isn't, when life is so easy, it's so easy to whine and complain and say "I don't know where to start". Well? Think damnit.
See, three weeks ago I knew someone who couldn't do anything, he had a reason. No social security or passport in hand. Thus he can't get a business license, nothing. He mailed it in for renewal. Can't blame him for slow postal thus he can't do much but stay home and play games or get laid or whatever.
But YOU. I bet you you have everything you need. But what are you doing. Sitting on your computer, sipping on Mountain Dew and complain. Then when someone attack you, you get your e-thug attitude out.
Hey, I'm definitely not pointing to anyone, it's everywhere, not just in this forum, but in my forum, in bodybuilding forums, in game forums (most especially game forums), you name it.
Then when I meet (and I have met a lot of people from the internet, take it from me) them, they are either out of shape or pathetic. Just plain pathetic. No confidence, complaining a lot. Hell last month I met a guy who couldn't even smile. The same month I saw a girl who couldn't stop complaining about her mother.
And then I realized, you know, life is so easy, but we make it so hard for our ego. To stroke it. Oh how we succumb to our ego.
No discipline, no gut, nothing. Pampered. I see pictures with guys wearing make-ups ( :whistles: ), guys smiling like an idiot, guys who try to act hard. Then when the real deal comes. They run. Or they avoid the subject. Basically evade the hard part.
So, what price are you willing to pay for your success? How far you willing to go? How hard are you willing to go to? Are you willing to lose it all only to gain a piece of paper that states your numbers? What risk are you willing to take?
Let me tell you, most people dont' even think about this. They think about the next movie, the next game, the celebrity gossips.
The largest sector in USA alone makes around $25,000 per year. And our poverty level is for people who make $20,000 or so. And average these people are willing to spend their money on is -
Eating out = $1,483
Alcoholic beverages = $247
Tobacco = $324
Entertainment = $1,517
Total = $3,571
Now, that's no problem until...
The average person is only willing to spend $95 per year on education. I'm not against education, I'm against school. The two aren't synonym, they weren't even the same to begin with. You go to school to be schooled, not educated. But nah, propaganda did a good job.
So wait, education itself has more value than eating out in Burger King? Or your wine? Or your smoking habit?
God I love McDonald's advertisements, did a good job. Served over millions of sucker if you ask me.
Take a look at folks who make almost $100,000 per year, the elite level of salary, they are the one that spend $1,902 per year on education, take that against folks who make so little ($30,000 or less) and yet spend so much on useless things. The same people who spend $95 on education and complain on how bad their boss is treating them. Whoa, whoa, whoa, you deserve it.
Don't believe me?

Hm. I wonder why. Oh I KNOW! I KNOW! They spend so much time watching TV! It is known people spend years watching commercials alone. Whoa.
The rich get richer because the rich are busy trying to educate themself of whatever they are getting themself in. If it's stock, they spend all their time doing it. That's all they talk about. Real estate investing is all I love to talk about and would love to discuss with you about. Real estate investing, real estate investing, real estate investing. I'll even rap about it, no kidding.
But what do I know? Right? I mean, seriously I'm only 18, just a little guy who seems too arrogant and just does one deal at a time.
