The Five Ways to Become a Millionaire 2

Today you are going to read about other three ways
to become millionaire how I've promised on the previous post.

The third source of self-made millionaires in America is doctors,
lawyers and other professionals. Men and women who become very,
very good at what they do and rise to the top of their professions
are eventually paid, very, very well. The top five percent in every
field ear n 10 and 20 times as much as the average person in that field.

The fourth major source of self-made millionaires in America are
salespeople and sales consultants. Fully five percent of self-made
millionaires are men and women who are the top salespeople in their
fields. They never started their own businesses. They never went to
college or university to get professional degrees. They just became
very good salespeople for their products or services and were paid
very good money. The secret was that they then invested the money
conservatively and held on to it. 99% of self-made millionaires come
from these four categories:
self-owned businesses - 74%;
senior executive positions - 10%:
doctors, lawyers and other professionals - 10%;
and salespeople and sales consultants - 5%.

The final one percent of self-made millionaires is made up of
all the people in all other areas. This one percent consists
of people who have made their money by inventions, in show business,
in sports, through authorship of books and songs, lottery winners
and inheritances. But these people make up only one percent of the total.

The bottom line is that there are so many ways for you to become a
self-made millionaire that it is almost impossible for you not to
achieve this goal if you are really serious about it.

Good Luck,

The Five Ways to Become a Millionaire



If you are really serious about becoming wealthy,
you will want to know the five main ways that fortunes
are made in America. Number one, top of the list,
top of the hit parade throughout the history of America,
is self-owned businesses. It is entrepreneurship of all kinds,
including in real estate. 74% of self-made millionaires
in America, not only in this generation and in this century,
but in the last century as well, come from self owned businesses.

The great majority of wealthy people started businesses and
built them from the ground up. In the 19th century, fortunes
were built by people like Andrew Carnegie, Jacob van Astor,
Thomas Edison, Commodore Vanderbilt, J. P. Morgan and others.
In the 20th century, especially in the last few years,
businesses and fortunes alike have been built by people like
Bill Gates, Steve Case, Larry Ellison, Ross Perot and Sam Walton.
Each of these people started with nothing and succeeded in
building a business from scratch.

The second major source of self-made millionaires in America
is senior executives. Ten percent of the self-made millionaires
in America are men and women who have joined large corporations
and worked with those corporations for many years. They rose to
positions of seniority, were paid extremely well, given stock options,
profit sharing and bonuses, and as a result of holding onto the money,
they became millionaires.

Richard Eisner of Disney Corporation received a $126 million
dollar bonus in a single year. Lee Iacoca of Chrysler Corporation
was paid $26.7 million dollars as a bonus in a single year.
It's not hard to become a self-made millionaire when you are
making that kind of money.

You can read about other three ways to become millionaire
on the next blog post.

Have a great week,

It is better to give than to receive.

I'm sure you're familiar with the old saying that
"it is better to give than to receive."
This sounds good, but it actually turns out to be true.
By giving – of your time, help, or money – you can
improve your own happiness level and even your health.
As a matter of fact, giving can be even better for the
giver than the receiver.

I found this out reading an article about
Dr. Stephen Post, who heads the Institute of Research
on Unlimited Love at Case Western Reserve University.
There he sponsors scientific studies on how doing good
for others can help people lead healthier, happier,
and even longer lives.

But his interest in the subject started when he
was a young boy growing up in Long Island, New York.
Whenever he would get restless or feel down in the dumps,
his mother would say, "Well, Stevie, why don't you go out
and help somebody?" So he would look around for something
to do for someone, like helping a neighbor with a yard chore.
And he discovered that helping others really did make him
feel better and was rewarding. And that childhood lesson
led him to his adult vocation.

Since then, many studies have shown the physical and
emotional benefits of giving. There's even a kind of
"helper's high" that shows up on MRI brain scans when
people donate their time or help to others. In one case,
when former heart patients were asked to visit current patients,
just to listen and be supportive, those former patients had
better health afterwards.

Another study found that seniors who gave their time to
various causes tended to live longer. And a study done with
high school students who were in a "service learning" program,
where they were required to volunteer, showed their grades
and moods actually improved.

So,why not give a little – and you'll get a lot.

Until next week,

Tribal Thought

It’s pleasing to our ego to believe we suffer as a result of our
virtues. It ties in perfectly with the whole “it’s spiritual to
be poor” crap that most people fall victim to. This is the
prevalent tribal thinking today.

We love to project blame for our poor decisions, inadequacies,
and bad choices on others. If we can blame the system, the
economy, or terrorist attacks, we’re in the clear. My favorites
are “fate,” “destiny,” and the ever-popular “God’s will.”
Presumably God was so busy making that last-second shot go
through the hoop for all those basketball players – he was
simply too preoccupied to stop you from having those five
cocktails before driving, or prevent you from being seduced into
having an affair.

I don’t know what is worse: The people who want to blame
everything but themselves for the actions they take – or the
people who stay home doing nothing but watching “The Secret” 27
times, expecting that to manifest their new Mercedes.

You are a co-creator in your destiny. For you to shrug off all
responsibility to an outside power – whether supernatural or
worldly – is simply escapism, and a sure sign of victim
mentality. As James Allen teaches in “As a Man Thinketh,” our
destiny is created by the thoughts we give precedence to.

I do believe in the law of attraction, by the way. But there is
more to prosperity and success than just that. There are
actually seven spiritual laws you must live by to manifest your
abundance. (For more on this, see Randy Gage book on the subject:
Prosperityseries )

Unfortunately, most of the herd doesn’t get this. They buy into
the prevalent thinking out there, which is just robotic
acceptance of the way things are. They give away their power of
critical thinking.

Now that doesn’t mean you can’t practice faith. I do. But I
believe one of the greatest gifts your creator gave you is your
rational mind. If you give power away to outside circumstances,
you set yourself up to be a victim. You can make excuses, talk
about God’s will, or rail about the system, and the tribe will
agree with you. But you’ll still be a victim.

If you take responsibility for your own outcomes, you’re much
more likely to be successful and prosperous. If you accept
responsibility for even the bad things that happen to you, this
leaves you open to accepting that you can create good results.
And once you accept that responsibility, you can then get
proactive about exactly what you do want to manifest in your
life.

Ain't it great?

The Major Obstacle to Financial Success

The major mental obstacle to financial success is that some
people believe that they don't really deserve to be rich.

The Biggest Demotivator of All

They have been raised with a steady drumbeat of destructive
criticism, that has led them to conclude, at an unconscious
level, that they don't really deserve to be successful and happy.

The worst effect of negative experiences in childhood, which
are all too common, is that when people actually do succeed
as the result of hard work, they feel guilty. These guilt
feelings then cause them to do things to get rid of the money,
to throw it away. They spend it or invest it foolishly.
They lend it, lose it or give it away. They engage in self-sabotage,
in the form of overeating, excessive drinking, drug usage,
marital infidelity and often dramatic personality changes.

Expecting and Accepting Your Abundance
