Introduction to RDPD

One of the reasons the rich get richer, the poor get poorer, and the middle class struggles in debt is that the subject of money is taught at home, not in school.

If you have a habit of saying, "I can't afford it," Well you really can't. Instead of saying "I can't afford it," ask "How can I afford it."
By asking the question "How can I afford it?" your brain is put to work. It doesn't mean that you should buy everything you want. It is about excercising your mind, the most powerful computer in the world.

"Your brain gets stronger every day if you exercise it. The stronger it gets, the more money you can make." I believe that automatically saying "I can't afford it" was a sign of mental laziness.

"Taxes punish those who produce and reward those who don't produce."

"When it comes to money, play it safe. Don't take risks." Which is wrong because you'll live your life inside your comfort zone. Instead, "Learn to manage risks."

Your home is not an asset. "Your house is a liability, and if your house if your largest investment, you're in trouble."

"There is a difference between being poor and being broke. Broke is temporary. Poor is eternal."

Instead of saying, "I'm not interested in money," or "Money doesn't matter." Think of it this way,
"Money is power." 

Money is one form of power. But what is more powerful is financial education. Money comes and goes but if you have the education about how money works, you gain power over it and can begin building wealth. The reason positive thinking along does not work is because most people went to school and never learned how money works, so they spend their lives working for money.

Learning from adversity

 If they knew that every form of defeat, and all failures, bring them the seed of unborn opportunity, they would keep on fighting and win. Success usually is but one short step beyond the point where on quits fighting. Failure is a man made circumstance. It is never real until it has been accepted by man as permanent. Failure is a state of mind; Therefore, it is something an individual can control until he neglects to exercise this privilege. Failure brings a climax in which one has the privilege of clearing his mind of fear and making a new start in another direction. Failure proves conclusively that something is wrong with one's aims or the plans by which the object of these aims is sought. Failure is the dead end of the habit-path one has been following, and when it is reached it forces one to leave that path and take up another, Thereby creating a new rhythm. It gives an individual an opportunity to test himself wherein he may learn how much will power he possesses. Failure als...
 All great leaders in every walk of life are highly sexed, but they follow the habit of controlling their sex desires, switching them into a driving force behind their occupation. The person who has self discipline understands the emotion of sex, respects it, and learns to control and transmute it into contructive activities. Q: Just what damage is there in over-indulgence of sex? A: The greatest damage is that it depletes the source of man's greatest driving force, and wastes, without adequate compensation, man's creative energy. Controlled sex supplies the magnetic force that attracts people to one another. It is the most important factor of a pleasing personality. It gives quality to the tone of voice and enables one to convey through the voice any feeling desired. It serves, as nothing else can serve, to give motive power to one's desires. It keeps the nervous system changed with the energy needed to carry on the work of maintaining the body. It sharpens the imagination...

THE SUCCESS HABIT

“Success is simple. Do what’ s right, the right way, at the right time.”  —Arnold H. Glasow The choice we face is whether or not we want to form habits that get us what we want from life. If we do, then the Focusing Question is the most powerful success habit we can have. Whenever the outcome absolutely matters, I ask it. I ask it when I wake up and start my day. I ask it when I get to work, and again when I get home. What’s the ONE Thing I can do such that by doing it everything else will be easier or unnecessary? And when I know the answer, I continue to ask it until I can see the connections and all my dominoes are lined up. Obviously, you can drive yourself nuts analyzing every little aspect of everything you might do. I don’t do that, and you shouldn’t either. Start with the big stuff and see where it takes you. Over time, you’ll develop your own sense of when to use the big picture question and when to use the small-focus question. The Focusing Question is the found...
