I reside in a capitalistic country wherein competition is the norm--not an exception. So if one wants wealth, usually one has to compete. If one has superior talent, training, experience, one may accumulate riches in large amounts; those not so fortunate may accumulate smaller amounts.
The starting point of all achievement is desire; that is why it is so important to want what you need.
NINE WAYS TO TURN DESIRES INTO MONEY:
1. Determine the potential rewards (especially net profit) of the business, profession, or enterprise of your most favorable interest.
2. Determine exactly what you need to get started, survive, and thrive in that business, profession, or enterprise.
3. Accumulate the necessary knowledge and build the skills you need.
4. Acquire the necessary resources for achievement.
5. Create a sound plan of detailed action with starting and ending times for accomplishments of goals, objectives, and activities.
6. Persistently and consistently follow your PLAN OF ACTION.
7. RECORD activities (including time spent on each task and results).
8. EVALUATE results.
9. IMPROVE wherever and whenever possible.
