In real life, we sometimes wonder: Why are there so many rich people around me, but I am poor? How did they make so much money? Why don't I have the ability to make money? Am I going to be poor all my life? In fact, the transition from poverty to wealth is what most people expect, but there is no idea and means to get rich, and wealth is just an illusion of self-comfort.
First, the rich think they are rich, and the poor think they were born without money:
The poor can't just bemoan their bad luck. Only by standing among the rich, absorbing their thoughts of getting rich and comparing them with their success can we truly achieve the goal of getting rich. Because, for a rich man, no matter how noble or poor he is, no matter how lucky he is, since he can make wealth, he will surpass you in at least some aspects.
Therefore, if you want to get rich successfully and become a rich man, you must first change your concept and mentality and have the awareness of learning from the rich. What is the real wealth of the rich? The real wealth of the rich is not how much money, real estate and stocks he owns, but his mind, way of thinking, means and mode of making money and the unique personality genes of the rich.
Most rich people believe that their destiny is in their own hands, and they will find their own opportunities through constant efforts. Most poor people are resigned to their fate and think that they were born without money, which also provides an excuse for not working hard.
Second, the rich know how to postpone enjoyment, while the poor will enjoy it immediately:
There is a story about a poor man. He is very poor. A rich man saw his pity and became kind and wanted to help him make a fortune. The rich man gave him a cow and told him to open up wasteland. When spring comes and seeds are sown, he can stay away from the word "poor" in autumn. The poor began to struggle in hope. But in a few days, cows will eat grass and people will eat, and life will be more difficult than in the past. The poor thought, it is better to sell the cows, buy some sheep, kill one and eat the rest first, and then give birth to lambs. When they grow up, they can sell them and make more money
The poor man's plan came true, but after eating a sheep, the lamb was not born, and life was very difficult, so he couldn't help eating another one. The poor thought, if this goes on, it is better to sell the sheep and buy them into chickens. Chickens lay eggs soon, eggs can make money immediately, and life can be improved immediately.
There is a marshmallow effect in psychology:
The focus is on the attitude towards temptation. Once a person can manage his own desires, he can prolong his enjoyment and often develop better later. An important gap between the poor and the rich lies in self-discipline, and the rich are often willing to postpone enjoyment for greater benefits. The poor, on the other hand, pursue the enjoyment of the present and fail to see the compound interest value brought by time.
The poor man's plan got his wish again, but the days have not changed, and he has lived a hard life and can't help killing chickens. Finally, when there was only one chicken left, the poor man's ideal completely collapsed. He thought it was hopeless to get rich, so he might as well pose as a chicken, make a pot of wine and drink three cups, and everything would be fine. Soon spring came, and the kind-hearted rich people sent the seeds with great interest. They were surprised to find that the poor drank pickles, the cows had long since disappeared, and the house was still poor. The rich man turned and left.
Third, the rich pursue learning, and most poor people don't like thinking:
A person's failure is closely related to his own mentality, mode of thinking and mode of action. Similarly, the reason why a poor man is poor is because he has a poor mind and a poor mind. Of course, he is also doing a poor model. If you want to get rid of poverty, you can't hide your incompetence with ignorance, nor can you hide your laziness and satisfaction with poverty. In other words, poverty is just a reality, not an excuse. In fact, wealth may be around us, on ourselves.
But if you don't know how to change your thinking and find it in ordinary life, then you may be poor all your life. Therefore, instead of spending time sighing and admiring, the poor should act immediately, learn from the rich, and learn the ideas and methods of the rich to get rich.
As a wealthy Jewish businessman once said, "If you want to be rich, you must learn from the rich. Even if you stand in the rich pile for a while, you will smell the rich. " So, if you envy the life of the rich, learn the skills of making money from the rich around you and make yourself a rich man.
