MOGR: Wealth Is an Attraction – Know Your Wealth Profile
By Steve | September 21, 2008
This is a followup on my previous articles:
Clarify Your Vision
Wealth Dynamics
Path of Least Resistance to Wealth
Like laws of attractions, wealth is about attracting resources you need so as to achieve your goals. This means that if you lost all your money, you are able to attract the money back, provided you have built true wealth.
If you were to have a way to talk with the world’s richest people, you might be confused about how they build their wealth. For example, if you ask Michael Dell, he would be advising you to build direct marketing and sales systems, perfect them, and the money will come. Bill Gates will be advising you to constantly innovate by creating products and applications fast enough and getting them to the market faster than their fiercest competitors. Warren Buffett will advise you to learn to save money, use it wisely, invest long term, and wait for it to grow. Everyone is right, but they are using different strategies and methods. The big questions is whic should you use? The fact that their strategies worked for them means that it’s not what they do but who they are. So the other big question should be - who are you? When you know who you are, you will know the strategies and steps to pursue.
These rich people understood their flow…their least-resistant path to wealth. And you can find that out yourself too, by taking the wealth profiling test. With that, your mindset could change. You understand your flow, yourself, your strategies, and mentors you can look up to and learn from their own strategies.
How many of us are living a life that is defining who we are? Or is consistent with who we are? Once you know who you are, you can use the strategies recommended by the Wealth Profiling program to align what you do with who you are. This way, your critical path to wealth could be shortened and your journey of wealth creation made enjoyable and more fruitful. You could probably build your TRUE wealth in along with your path and flow.
Pursuing money could be temporary. It comes and goes and has ups and down. With you knowing your flow and wealth path, you will ‘fail forward’. Failing forward is the key to success; by failing forward, you learn; you pick up again and go forward. Failing backward causes you to stop the game and truly fail.
Another matter is wealth is not about money; it’s about people. So networking is important. You’ve got to understand who you are, and you’ve got to find partners that can complement your weakness and work well with you.
The industry you need to go to does not depend on what your profile is. In fact, when you understand your wealth profile, your concern should be what role you can play in the industry or orgainsation. Many who are clear with their wealth profile and have a strong wealth foundation find themselves easily transportable to different industries.
In summary:
YOUR WEALTH PROFILE IS:
• Your path of least resistance
• A wealth creation profile that suits your personal strengths
• One of eight profiles, each with its unique strategy
• A proven path that others have already followed
• A method for you to focus your time investment on
• A route to the clarity and certainty of your path
• A permanent foundation
• A way to distinguish your wealth creation process from the industry or profession that you are currently in
• A method to select the right role models
• A tool to gain a clearer understanding of yourself
• A reference point for your learning and growth
YOUR WEALTH PROFILE IS NOT:
• A fad
• Something you can change at whim
• A temporary foundation
• Your career path or profession
• Your only path to wealth (although others will take longer)
• A place to hang responsibility on
• An excuse
• A label
After understanding your profile, the next step is to resonate with it. When we are fully in flow, we resonate with our purpose, and others respond to our energy. Resonance is the ultimate level of attraction, and one of the key secrets to wealth creation.
I learnt so much about Wealth Profile from the author of Wealth Dynamics, Roger Hamilton. You can hear and see him speak by clicking this => Wealth Dynamics.

MOGR: Have a Mindset of Feeling Lucky and Feeling Good
By Steve | September 9, 2008
Why do some people get all the luck while others never get the breaks they deserve?
You may ask why some people are always in the right place at the right time, while others consistently experience ill fortune.
I recently read about a psychologist’s research where it was discovered that our thoughts and behaviours are the causes of our good or bad fortune. Take the case of seemingly chance opportunities. Lucky people consistently encounter such opportunities, whereas unlucky people do not.
The research involved a sample of 2 types of volunteers. On one side, the subjects were consistently made to feel that they were lucky and the other, consistently made to feel that they were unlucky. He asked them to read a newspaper he published to look for a number of photographs. He did not tell them that he had secretly placed a message that said, “When you spot this, please tell the researcher and win US$50” somewhere on the newspaper - and this message was well placed in the front page with big fonts. The results showed that most of those who spotted the message were subjects who felt they were lucky. Almost no one from those who feel that they were always unlucky spotted the message.
People who consistently have negative attitudes are generally more tense than positive people, and this anxiety disrupts their ability to notice the unexpected. As a result, they miss opportunities because they are too focused on looking for something else. The feeling-lucky ones make the best of what they have and find ways to make it better. The people who always feel unlucky tend to find an easy way out, and consequently fail in life.
Positive and feeling-lucky people are, in general, more open and relaxed. They would look at what is there rather than just what they are looking for. The researcher reveals that lucky people generally have the following attributes:
1) They are skilled at creating and noticing chance opportunities;
2) They can make lucky decisions by listening to their intuition;
3) They consistently create self-fulfilling prophesies via positive expectations; and
4) They adopt a resilient attitude that transforms bad luck into good.
The researcher went further with the experiment by asking a group of people to perform these exercises for a month, and the result was 80% of those people were now happier, more satisfied with their lives and - perhaps most important of all - luckier.
These findings confirmed what the movie “The Secret” teaches, i.e., Thoughts Become Things. What you think and feel is very important for success. You can use feelings to control your thoughts.
The happiest people in the world are not those who have no problems, but those who learn to live with things that are less than perfect.

MOGR: Don’t Just Live to Work for Money
By Steve | August 14, 2008
It is a convenient reason and excuse to say. You needed a job because we all do, in order to live. Then, slowly, before you know it, you are holding down a job that’s taking up too much of your time and energy that you no longer have time left to even think about what you could be doing differently – that is how to work “smarter” in order to make more money faster and with less effort.
So many of us are guilty of letting our financial affairs slip past us because we always feel there are better things to do with our precious free time than to come to grips with our finances or plan a long-overdue life or career change.
Sometimes we are too busy doing our job that we forget the end goal – i.e., making some real money and constantly letting it grow to a point where our income exceeds our expenses. Instead, many prefer to stick to the 9-to-5 routine.
Lots of people work to live – and frankly speaking, without these people, the rich could not get richer. This does not mean that the workers are being exploited; it just means that since they choose to invest their time and energy in 9-to-5 jobs to work for wages, then there will always be other smarter people who see the opportunity and become prosperous – simply because they have their heads up and could see farther.
If you have to have a job and to go to work from 9 till 5 each day, it makes sense that you work to earn as much money as you can and want.
If you love your job but it cannot make you rich even if you stick to that job until your retirement, then you need to create a strategy for wealth creation that doesn’t rely on that ‘day job’ income.
Although you love your job and love what you do, if you want wealth, you need to be sure that you are not just doing the job you love and neglect to work out how you are going to get wealthy doing it, or consider other actions or strategies you need to implement to get a second income or alternative revenue generator.
If you are unhappy with your pay and/or hate your job, then you have to ask yourself why you are still doing it. The worst scenario is that you are not happy with your job and you are still busy doing it, causing you to reason out that you don’t have time to create a plan that will bring you to a life of greater prosperity and happiness. While you’ve got your head down earning a living, many opportunities may pass over your head which you’ll never get to see. Imagine waking up one day in ten years’ time and realizing that many opportunities have already passed you by. As a popular quote goes, “People can be divided into three groups: Those who make things happen, those who watch things happen, and those who wonder what happened.”

MOGR – It’s Never Too Late – Money Does Not Have an Age Bias
By Steve | July 15, 2008
According to T-Harv, if you think you are too old to start anything, you are probably right. But if you think you can still make it even at the age of 70 or 80, you are also right. It is all in the THOUGHT. Money does not have age an bias.
I like to talk about this topic. Like what I said in my previous post, anyone can be rich, even if you start late, say, at your 70s. Money does not know how old you are. It is whether you want it or not that matters.
There was an article in The Straits Time Singapore about the 70-year-old man named Mr. Lim. He was the one who started The Emporium Group, which was once Singapore’s best-known supermarket chain. He went bankrupt at 65 during an economic meltdown, re-started at 72, and “made it” at 82, and retired rich – with millions to his name. At age 72, many would have died or would’ve been half-dead, but Mr. Lim still pursued his dream despite his bankruptcy 10 years prior. The media referred him as “The Comeback Kid”.
Wal-Mart founder Sam Walton opened his first Wal-Mart Superstore at the age of 44. He turned the simple store, selling branded goods at low prices, to a huge billion-dollar giant with hundreds of stores across North America. Born in 1918, Walton died in 1992 at the age of 75, going down in history as the world’s second richest man, next only to Bill Gates.
KFC founder Colonel Harland Sanders started his search for wealth at the ripe old age of 65. In fact, his success did not come easy. Sanders did not have business skills – he only had the secret recipe. He thought of selling his recipe to a restaurant chain and asking for a share of the profits. His quest was a failure at the beginning. It was his determination that helped him finally get a restaurant to buy his recipe and have a joint venture with him. In fact, his formula for success was going door-to-door, selling his plans and his recipe to the owners. He got rejection after rejection. It is said that the old man got 1000+ rejections before he successfully landed a buyer.
However, if you think it is too late for you to start any business, you are probably right. That’s why THOUGHT is the first thing that the movie, The Secret and the book, The Science of Getting Rich stressed as an important step. If you think you are lost, old and have no more chance, you are probably right. If you think you can still do it, you are right, too. It is your THOUGHT that you begin your journey with.
Just shift your focus and your thoughts – it’s never too late. Just remember my previous post about the word “thought” in Chinese, which is “xiang’.

MOGR – Spend Less Than You Earn
By Steve | May 9, 2008
I am amazed at how many people I meet are spending more than they earn. Many people do not follow this most golden of all the golden rules. That is,
• spend less than what you earn
• live within your means
• do not get stuck in a ‘Hand-To-Mouth’ situation
• create a little bit of savings for rainy days!
• create savings from which to generate more income (you can’t breed more chicken if you sell all your chickens!)
This mindset I want to push across does not contradict with my earlier post, “Penny Wise, Pound Foolish”. By the way, you should live within your means, but live well enough to be happy. If you don’t earn enough to have a nice luxury car to drive, then drive a simple Korean-made car. If you can’t earn enough to drive a car, then, don’t own a car; take public transport.
This mindset is about being informed and in control. The biggest mistake is not knowing what you are doing, where you are financially, and what is up ahead. Know your profile, know what you want and what the profile said you can do, and act on it with plans, goals and determination. If you have not analysis your profile, please do so.
The Jar Money Management system from T. Harv, again, could help you kick the bad habit of ‘spending more than you earn’. In the money management concept of T. Harv, you are supposed to put aside money for savings, education, etc. and a budget for spending on your pleasure and the things you want to enjoy. It helps you to plan, and slowly but surely, you will adopt the discipline of spending your money wisely. You will start to develop the habit of knowing what you are doing and where you are financially. Isn’t this habit a habit that we all find in public corporations and companies? Yes, we all need to be accountable to ourselves. If we are not accountable to ourselves, how can we be able to look after a huge organization? The habit starts within ourselves; i.e., managing ourselves.
Some people tell me this: “But you see, I do not have the skills and education like you have do, to earn enough money.” I say this is bullshit If you have that mindset of not finding a way to earn more, you will not have more.
There are many ways to earn more:
1. Educate yourself by learning new and more skills that can help you generate more money.
2. Have a second stream of income, such as MLM, Internet Marketing, and more; this can be done after office hours.
3. See if you can JV with some of your family members to start some businesses. They can be full time, and you support them part-time – like on weekends.
I see people complaining that they don’t have enough time to do my suggested method above, and yet they spend lots of time wandering around pubs, loitering in the streets, drinking away, wasting time. I guess they do not have the needed motivation. So, getting rich is a decision…a mindset you need to cultivate. Once this is in your mind, and your desire and passion are in your body, you are on your way to success –regardless of whether you have money now or not.

MOGR - Make The Right Decision and Make The Decision Right
By Steve | May 6, 2008
A lot of times, we hurry to make hasty decisions and regret our actions afterwards. A lot of time too, we fiddle and fiddle. We take too long to make a decision and some times we do not make any. We make decisions and do not follow through; hence, we do not get what we want and wonder if our decision was right. It seems like making the right decision and making the decision right are conflicting.
Before we make any important decision, knowledge and analysis are keys. Therefore, it is important to act fast when making a decision. When a decision is made, MAKE IT RIGHT! Call it determination. Once you know yourself and your wealth dynamic path, chances are, you can make quick and good decisions and strategies. When you know yourself well and you have designed your wealth path and you know you are extremely passionate about it, you will become a powerhouse and are unstoppable. So, you will Make The Decision Right.
Making the Right Decision
Tony Robbins said, “Decisions shape our destiny.” Decision-making is so important that if we make a wrong decision, sometimes, we may suffer for life. And yet, making decisions are necessary in life. In some cases, we have to make decisions every day. When it comes to making important decisions, especially those that can affect our jobs, future, and fortune, we tend to slow down and worry. I have seen this before. And yet when we take such a long time to make critical wealth creation decisions, it is still possible for us to make the wrong ones.
Well, before you can go forward, you need to know where you want to be. Some important concepts I learn are: Know my wealth path and get a strategy of building wealth according to my path of least resistance to wealth. When I learned this strategy, which was recommended by the creator of Wealth Dynamics, I began to make decisions knowing that they fit into my wealth creation strategy. I had my dynamic wealth profile analyzed and I have been categorized as a Supporter. The person with a Supporter profile is an extrovert and is people-oriented. Many entrepreneurs need a “Supporter” in their organization to help motivate and execute their strategies. I encourage all who have not had their profiles done to do so.
It only costs US$100, and it is definitely worth it to know who you are and what strategies you should take to become wealthy. You would appreciate it when you know who you are. Take a look at my profile: Click here. Once you have clarity on your path of least resistance, you gain incredible clarity on how to invest your time, what the next steps are, who you need to learn from, where you need to be, what you need to do - and equally important, what not to waste time on any further. From that point onwards, every step is a step in the right direction.
Making the Decision Right
Many people, after making decisions on what to do and how to achieve what they want, do not get there because they do not know about themselves. Whenever you see someone having a lot of energy to do what he wants to do and is successful, you probably wonder, “Is it luck?” My answer is Yes and No. Luck probably contributes only 30% of it, but the other 70% will depend on your determination, execution, passions, and your will to do it.
Take small actions, and small positive actions will lead to greater confidence to go for more small actions…you “spiral up.” Similarly, if you don’t take small actions but wait and do nothing, your confidence will deteriorate and spiral down. In fact, I wrote an article about taking actions: Click this to read more.
Make sure you are passionate about what you do. If you are not, you probably did not do that make-the-right-decision process properly in the first place. I mentioned in my previous blog that if you do not have your passion linked with your vision and wealth profile, you will lose your motivation and energy quickly when you meet with problems.
I observed that those people who can “make their decision right” are those that have a clear vision, mission, and passion to get things done. They know their “why” and they are very focused on what they want to do. They have a powerful energy from within. Also, they have clear goals in their mind. Goal-setting is one of the major tasks you need to do after your have made your decisions. I recommend this tool: Achieve-IT For less than US$40, you can change your life. For those who need to have a clear step-by-step approach to setting goals, Achieve-It should help.
Make the Right Decision and Make the Decision Right.

MOGR – Create New Income Streams
By Steve | April 9, 2008
When it comes to the “mindsets of getting rich,” you have to know how to invest wisely. Managing your money actively and wisely is important, but nothing beats having more money coming in for you in the first place.
Everybody can benefit from some thought about where their income comes from and how they could create another source of income.
It is a little like being a busker. Try busking in certain places, and when you can no longer get the results you’re looking for, pack up and move on. In the physical world, if an activity is proving unprofitable, you can pack up and go somewhere else to busk. However, in cyberworld, instead if having a go at it alone, you may want to duplicate yourself – i.e., “clone” yourself and carry on busking where you started and at the same time busk at a new place as well.
Let’s take a look at the super rich – Bill Gates, Robert Kiyosaki, Michael Dell and many others. They duplicate their systems, themselves, their materials, and their ideas so that they are being diversified and in the process, they unlock their prosperity. The rich usually have several money-making schemes working for them.
This is especially important for anyone who loves his or her work but where the work doesn’t pay well. What this person needs is another income stream to supplement the other cash source.
There are some ways to do this. First is to turn some surplus cash into assets that will work for you and bring in the income. I did that, and it has given me an additional cumulative 12% yearly return in the past 5 years.
Another way is to find other means of using your skills and expertises in more than one setting so you aren’t just swapping your labor for a paycheck in your day job. I travel a lot and I have learnt Internet Marketing techniques from some seminars, boot camps, and the World Internet Academy. Being a travelling sales man, I have a need for an effective communication tool. Under my Internet Marketing teacher’s recommendation, I joined an MLM program whose product is about sending video messages instead of text emails.
Because I use this product for my work, I have also been doing some good MLM business with it. I started blogging a year ago, and since then have benefited from a small passive income from it.
Do some ‘sidelines’ that would not conflict with your day job. I have found Internet Marketing and MLM to be effective alternatives. What if there was a program that enabled you to learn and earn about Internet Marketing and offer you a leveraging money-making component as well? I just did that. I’m now a member of MyVideoTalk as well as the World Internet Academy. Both help me earn some side income while I keep and enjoy my day job.
I took up MyVideoTalk because it has helped me communicate better via the Internet. It’s so simple – I just speak into the mic while the webcam captures me in motion. I simply upload and send it. The other side will then receive my video-email and see and hear me while I talk. This improves communication a lot even without me traveling to my business contact’s location. This method is the closest thing to being there, having a face-to-face talk. Some of my friends received this video-talk email and joined in as well. A few more may come in, and I’ll soon have my monthly subscription paid for. Not bad. Now start making your own part-time passive income.
The World Internet Academy is another great discovery. I learnt my Internet Marketing skills here for a mere US$54 per month subscription. Best of all, I get it free now by introducing more people to subscribe and earn referrer fees. I make money from it and also help people earn their own passive income.
Yes, Internet Marketing + Network Marketing is the best combination for a second or multiple-income stream source today. And I have that terrific combination under my belt now.

MOGR – Take Calculated Risks – Take the Path of Least Resistance to Wealth
By Steve | April 6, 2008
No, I’m not talking about gambling. I’m talking about taking calculated risks. Risk is still risk, which means you can lose a lot. Hence, it is important that you study entrepreneurship a lot. Knowledge is power.
Think deeply to understand your subject – you can take mentorship from others and then some – that’s the reason why I learnt a 4-step strategy:
1) Know yourself by taking the Wealth Dynamic Test. Its test report will reveal your Path of Least Resistance to Wealth. What path, what kind of role you should play. What business is right for you, and what type of personality you have. I have written about Wealth Dynamics in my previous posting. Click the word Wealth Dynamics to read it if you have not done so.
2) After you know yourself well enough have clarity of your path, your personality, and the types of roles you can play to bring to light that Least Resistance to Wealth, you can then devise a wish list – a VISION.
3) Recheck that your vision is well-linked with your passion. Your passion is what you like to do and find meaning in doing, even though you may meet with difficulties and hardships along the way. In fact, you will. So when you meet with difficulties and hardships, your passion will be the factor that will keep you moving forward when others will have given up. You will be a powerhouse when your vision and passion are well-linked.
4) Using clarity of your Vision, create a Vision Board. The board is a picture or visible diagram of your vision and what you want to achieve – drawn out on a board. Look at it every day and it will be like a magnet and motivational chart to propel you, increase your determination, raise your confidence level, and remind you of the reasons ( your “WHY” ) for going after it. If your vision, passion, and “WHY” are strong, you will be an unstoppable powerhouse and it is a way of propelling you forward.
Once you determine your risk level and decide your attitude to risk, it will make your planning easier. You can then tailor how you intend to become prosperous. I notice that young people are able to cope better with risk. Family commitment is another factor, and this is a tricky matter. I have found that people with family take risks but put their hearts into their ventures as well. Younger people may be willing to take more risks but some of them take reckless (uncalculated) risks…and this is a paradox.
The best entrepreneurial risk that older people can try is MLM and/or Internet Marketing which they can do part-time or full-time, anywhere.
Life itself is a risk. We cannot tell when our health will fail us or when we may suddenly pass away. Your wealth profile will give you a clue as to what your risk profile is. At the end of the day, we can say that life is an adventure, so why not take advantage of what life can offer you while you’re still strong and capable?.

MOGR: Don’t Be Penny-Wise and Pound-Foolish. It Isn’t Worth It.
By Steve | March 26, 2008
I have observed that wealthy people did not indulge in small pleasures and small economies.
The right thing to do is to go ahead and live comfortably; set aside a certain amount to pamper yourself. This mindset is confirmed by T. Harv’s Jar Money Management concept where he suggested putting aside 10% for a PLAY account.
Don’t get me wrong. Warren Buffett’s being rich and living simply does not mean he lived poorly. If you need to spend, do so. T. Harv’s Jar Management concept discusses putting aside money with discipline. What successfully rich people do is be consistent and stay away from drugs, alcohol, gambling, and stuff that can suddenly suck their money away.
Trying to make scrimp too much in order to become prosperous is doomed to failure. It won’t make you rich, but it will make you miserable. It is not a great way to start your day when you are miserable. You need decent meals, decent clothes, a car to transport you and your family, and most important, a positive attitude. In the movie “The Secret,” the Law of Attraction is about having positive thoughts and feelings.
Hang on here - doesn’t the teaching from T. Harv Eker’s Millionaire Mindset say that we should spend a little less on pleasure such as taking a budget holiday while we are in the process of getting our finances in order? Once these are in order, we can then work on getting rich. And getting rich doesn’t mean you have to scrimp your way through. Saving money is important, but earning money is MORE important. Wealthy people do not scrimp and save. Surely some of them are overly restrained with their spending and you need to use a crowbar to open their wallets. But while they may be prudent about their big purchases, they don’t buy cheap coffee and jam in the hopes that these acts of economizing can substantially add to their wealth.
I have seen here in my country that people buy luxury cars and houses, yet they cannot even afford a Starbucks coffee every morning to indulge in. They live hand-to-mouth. This is dangerous and is the wrong way of ‘saving’ your money.
What’s important is for you to ask yourself whether you really need that Benz, those big houses, or that fourth or fifth Rolex watch.
Save, by all means, for all those big purchases, but perhaps you should take stock of your lifestyle and ask yourself if you really need them. Don’t think that giving up those little pleasures and those little luxuries which enhance your life will increase your wealth. A mindset of escaping from penury is probably one of the keys to success and paths to prosperity. When you’re on a diet, for instance - if you deny yourself every small pleasure (i.e., your favorite food), you’ll most likely fail. Little pleasures are the way forward.
Read about the Jar Money Management System, or buy a copy of the Secret of the Millionaire Mindset to understand how you can manage your money well without having to scrimp along the way. T. Harv’s concept is a proven system to do just that.

MOGR: Wealth Can Make You Happy, Enjoy Your Wealth, and Sleep Well
By Steve | March 24, 2008
In my last post, I mentioned that Money Begets More Money. Don’t be sad. This is a fact of life. Like it or not, this is true. Money Begets More Money. Do not despise the rich. The rich will get richer (but only if they use their money correctly; we know that there are rich sons wasting their fathers’ hard-earned money). We can moan about it and perpetuate the situation, or we can do something for ourselves and be in the “rich” group.
It seems that the best thing to do when you see someone very rich, or more particularly, someone who became rich by doing something right, is to not whine or be jealous of that other person. Study what he did to reach that status and modify it to suit your own situation. Set up a plan to get there. When you have enough money, use it wisely to get richer and have a goal to help the less fortunate to get there, too. This is the best mindset I feel that a ‘not-rich’ person should have.
Some ‘Not-Rich’ persons I have met seem to have the wrong mindset about getting rich. They hold the following myths:
1) You have to be ruthless, manipulative, and greedy enough to make lots of money;
2) To become rich, you have to sell your soul, your grandparents’ souls, and your principles as well;
3) Being rich can make you end up with health problems;
4) Being wealthy ultimately forces you to put your family, friends, and happiness on the altar of wealth…
…and other beliefs of the narrow-minded.
Well, some end up like that, but you don’t have to. In fact, you shouldn’t! From the book “Secret of the Millionaire Mindset,” we are taught to set aside money for charity and giving.
You can enjoy making money and have a healthy life while making lots of money, and still manage to sleep well at night. You just need to decide on what you want to do with your money no matter what, and stick to it. Once you have the money, you will be surprised with how quickly it can grow if you invest in wisely.
The reason why many are jealous and why many religious leaders are telling us not to think about getting rich is because only a handful of people know the secret of getting rich.
When you start to lose sleep and fail to find enjoyment in what you do, you need to reassess your situation, evaluate the reasons why you’re doing what you’re busy with at present, and perhaps make some changes. I know many rich people who are living a happy and ethical life and enjoy making lots of money – many of them are very nice people to be with.
Don’t envy someone who is successful and rich. “Learn from them and copy them,” was an advice I got from a rags-to-riches person I got to meet recently. Money is a tool – not a cure.
Of course, DON’T make money by doing what’s immoral. If you need to be so in order to make money, or if making money a certain way doesn’t give you fulfillment, then it is NOT worth doing it. Change your style or method and even your mindset.
