Wealth File #4 Rich people think big. Poor people think small

Wealth principle:
The law of Income: You will be paid in direct proportion to the value you deliver according to the marketplace.

The keyword is value. It's important to know that four factors determine your value in the marketplace: supply,demand,quality and quantity.

The factor that presents the biggest challenge for most people is the quantity. The quantity factor simply means, how much of your value do you actually deliver to the marketplace?

Another way of stating this is, how many people do you actually serve or affect?

Most people choose to play small. Why? First, because of fear. They're scared to death of failure and they're even more frightened of success. Second, people play small because they feel small. They feel unworthy. They don't feel they're good enough or important enough to make a real difference in people's lives.

But hear this: your life is not just about you. It's also about contributing to others. It's about living true to your mission and reason for being here on this earth at this time. It's about adding your piece of the puzzle to the world. Most people are so stuck in their egos that everything revolves around me, and more me. But if you want to be rich in the truest sense of the word, it can't only be about you. It has to include adding value to other people's lives.

Buckminster Fuller said, "The purpose of our lives is to add value to the people of this generation and those that follow."

We each came to this earth with natural talents, things we're just naturally good at. These gifts were given to you for a reason: To use and share with others.

Part of your mission in life then must be to share your gifts and value with as many people as possible. That means being willingto play big.

Do you know the definition of an entrepreneur? The definitions is "a person who solves problems for people at a profit."

Make no mistake, every peson on this planet has a mission. If you are living right now, there's a reason for it.

Small thinking and small actions lead to being both broke and unfulfilled. Big thinking and big actions lead to having both money and meaning. The choice is yours.

Declarations: "I think big! I choose to help thousands and thousands of people!"

Indecision

Procrastination robs you of opportunity. It is a significant fact that no great leader was ever known to procrastinate. You are fortunate if ambition drives you into action, never permitting you to falter or turn back once you have rendered a decision to go forward. You may be shocked if you kept accurate account of the time you waste in a single day. Second by second, as the clock ticks off the distance, time is running a race with you. Delay means defeat, because no one may ever make up a second of lost time. Wasted time is one of the chief causes of failure. Time is also, however, a master worker that heals the wounds of failure and disappointment, and rights all wrongs and turns all mistakes into capital. But it favors only those who kill off procrastination and remain in action when there are decisions to be made. Life is a great checkerboard. The player opposite you is Time. If you hesitate you will be wiped off the board. If you keep moving you may win. The only real capit...
