Why am I here?

I started this blog without a clear direction as to where I was going with this or what exactly my theme was going to be about. So because I wanted to make money online I figured I would write about money. Then I began to research different millionaires perspectives and philosiphies of how to become rich. In my research and studies I began to learn that it wasn't the money that made them rich. As a matter of fact the more I began to read about these people (Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, Henry Ford, Robert Kiyosaki, just to name a few.) the more I began to understand that initially their success had nothing to do with money. For the majority these self-made millionaires/billionaires are everyday people who have often failed time and time again. The biggest difference between them is the thought process they use to overcome failure and the attitude they use. Robert Kiyosaki wrote the book Rich Dad Poor Dad (one of my favourites) and one of the first things I learned was that it is not money that makes you rich, but it's the knowledge and wisdom that you use to create ways to make money. Henry Ford initially had an idea...He wanted eight cyclinders in one engine block and his team told him it wasn't possible; at that point it wasn't about money it was about being able to achieve what he decided he wanted.



As I continued to search I began to ask myself personal questions, because I have decided I am going to be wealthy (to become wealthy is a decision) Why do I want to be wealthy? and what am I going to do when I become wealthy. Another question I asked myself was, How am I going to become wealthy? When I asked these questions I really began to think about it over and over again. One of the answers to the question, how am I going to become wealthy? was to start an online business. This is initially why I started my blog.



The title of this post is called Why am I here? and this is where everything starts to take a turn. I have tried some online marketing products and took some advice from different people online on how to make money quick or take someone else's content and promote your product and so on.... honestly there's alot of technical stuff behind making money online but it can be done. This is not what I'm writing about right now. This is what I mean by everything taking a turn. There are a lot of crooks in online marketing and do I really want to be like that... even if the people can't see me? of course not, it ain't right. I am a firm believer in you reap what you sew, if you sow a bad seed you will reap a bad harvest and sometimes a bad harvest is worse than no harvest. So to make a long short I am a Christian by faith and have a strong desire to help people. At the end of the day I am here to engage people in a higher level of thinking. My goal is to help develop people to become better for the sake of humanity. Some of you that read this may already be there or on that journey but my goal is that no matter what you already know I hope that you learn something or begin to rethink something. As of right now my speech is very broad and general but as I continue to post my blog I will begin to rethink and refine everything I do. I hope that as you read my post you will to.

Better Than Money?

There's one thing better than Money....Knowledge. Why? Because knowledge gives you the power to create ways to make money. The Rich stay rich because of the wisdom they are taught and the poor stay poor because of what they are taught(I came from a lower class income home. I love my parents greatly and think they have done a great job with raising me. But they never taught me how to become an entrepreneur, perhaps because they were never taught). The only way to go from poor to rich is to pretty much retrain your brain, and my friend there is no easy way to do this especially depending on what age you start.

For example imagine if you lived a certain way for oh, lets say 28 years and all of a sudden you realize that the only way to get what you want is to change what you've been doing (considering that for the last 15 years of work your still not even on your way to where you want to be). There is a huge process involved in going from poor to rich that include several different changes including thoughts, philosophies, actions, principles etc. These things have to change before your money status changes, You can bet me on this one. Think About It...

One of the biggest reasons why people don't go from poor to rich often is because the average person is too lazy to keep up the persistence and consistency it takes to reach the other side. This takes lots of work creating new habits, or staying positive after failure and trying again. It also takes lots of courage to try something different than what the people around you normally do. Chances are if your lower class then probably the people closest to you are in the same boat even if you know a few rich friends. If your best friend is rich you need to learn what it is they do!

This is my blog post for now, until next time Think About It...

Failure is a chance to start over with more intelligence~Henry Ford (founder of Ford motor company)



Most people's biggest fear is failure. The reason I waited so long to start my journey in life is because I feared to fail (not being able to accomplish what I said I would). Now, the only difference between then and now is the thought process. I used to think that if I failed at something it was over, but now I understand that if I fail at something it's an opportunity to learn. The more we learn the more intelligent we become. The more intelligent we become the more we can accomplish. Think About It....

When you're not afraid to lose at something you have a better chance of winning. If you want to achieve more than average results in life don't play it safe play to win. If you want to win expect to fail but don't give up.

Think about a job you've had in the past or the one you are at now. When you first started you weren't that great because you had to learn it. In the process I'm sure you made some mistakes and your boss gives you some grace because he/she understood you needed to learn your daily routines. After time you become so familiar with your daily task that you do them even without giving much thought, your routines just become natural and second nature. However when you first start your new job, in the back of your mind you think and hope you can learn everything quick enough and be good enough to secure your position. What I'm saying is that your desire to succeed or pay your bills was much stronger than your fear to fail. This same principle of desire can be used in other circumstances in your life. Think About It.....

If fear controls your actions, life will control your circumstances.
