according to self-made million year
Steve seal bold building wealth is a
learnable skill individuals who have
been able to gather wealth today when
I'm born with peculiar wealth gathering
talents instead they decided to learn
the principles of wealth and pursue them
in this video I will show you some of
these principles which are tagged as
risks you should take if you want to be
rich one stepping into unfamiliar zones
undoubtedly taking the step into
uncertainties is very scary however it
is paramount for the amassment of wealth
you may set goals and create schedules
but if you are not willing to stretch
yourself you wouldn't be able to achieve
such goals
the biggest obstacle between you and
your goal is your comfort zone leaving
the familiar ground until the unfamiliar
areas involves a significant amount of
courage if you must be rich you must
continually challenge and improve
yourself raid is only outside your
comfort zones that you can find wealth
as you grow your comfort zone expands so
you need to step out into unknown
grounds to become more prosperous
consistently to being called a failure
did you know that Thomas Edison one of
the world's most renowned scientist and
inventor of the light bulb failed 1,000
times before he was finally able to
create a light bulb did you know that
Microsoft's founder Bill Gates dropped
out from school and also failed in his
trap old data idea one primary reason
why people aspire but never get rich is
that they have big dreams but are often
too scared to take the risks of failing
when people look at a rich person the
only thing they see is the glamour
nevertheless behind the glamour are the
many mistakes and failures self-made
billionaire Richard Branson said that
successful entrepreneurs don't fear
failure instead they learn from their
mistakes the successful entrepreneurs
you see around today did
suddenly get rich they too experienced
rejection if you genuinely desire to be
wealthy
you must risk being called a failure 3
standing alone a 2016 article on bbc.com
reported that although many people will
not give up chasing their financial
wealth those who have achieved their
dream say that it can be isolating and
often looks rosier only on the outside
yes getting rich is a desire for all but
one must risk attached to it the truth
of being in the lonely path in your
quest for wealth you may have to face
hatred and be despised from jealous
friends and family members also there is
always a point where you have to perform
the extraordinary task of moving away
from the crowd it is quite easier just
to follow the group and do what everyone
else does but what everyone else does is
not what you need to be wealthy hence
you must follow the less crowded path
for getting used to being uncomfortable
to create this kind of beautiful life
you desire you have to do things that
you have never done before a lot of
people tend to get too comfortable in
their early years whereas it ought to be
a period to get familiarized with
discomfort indeed no one likes to be
uncomfortable but it is an integral part
of being wealthy
research shows that putting yourself in
new and unfamiliar situations triggers a
unique piece of the brain that releases
dopamine natures make you happy chemical
this unique region of the brain is only
activated when you see or experience
entirely new things getting comfortable
with discomfort gives you a speed
advantage think about this when do you
move faster carrying a hefty bowl of
water or pulling something very light
weighted 5 letting go of relationships
this has to be one of the most vital
risks for riches a famous saying says if
you are among six rich individuals you
will soon be the seventh one likewise if
you are in the midst of
poor people you are certainly the
seventh one it does not matter how long
the relationship has lasted if the
person's impact is not seen in your life
then you need to walk away to be
productive you have to move along with
wealthy minded individuals not those
pessimistic ones that will do everything
within their powers to discourage you
another set of people who you need to
let go of are those who are so
comfortable with giving you fish but
never want to show you how to fish
relationship with such people is toxic
because they will make you lazy and
overly dependent for you to begin to
amass wealth you must take the risk of
killing the attachments you have with
certain people six starting over imagine
running to the top of a building and
then discovering that the building you
are on is the wrong one you are not
supposed to be there would you go to the
bottom and start over again on the
surface deciding to begin again is easy
but in reality considering the resource
time and energy you used to climb you
might just give up the reason why some
people are not yet wealthy is either
they are on the wrong building or are on
the foot of the right structure but are
too scared to start over again starting
again comes with its fears and thoughts
such as do I have what it takes to climb
again what if I climb and discover that
I am on the wrong building again these
fears are legit but there is a need to
understand that it's okay to make
mistakes everyone does and the fear of
making another one should not stop you
from starting all over if you must be
rich you must take the risk of retracing
your steps and starting from scratch
again seven foregoing present pleasures
Richard G Scott once said don't give up
what you want most for what you want now
well in my own words don't give up your
dreams of owning a private jet for some
bottles of drinks and designer clothing
although delaying gratification is a
common factor for amassing wealth it is
somewhat demanding wealthy individuals
are people who can control themselves
discipline themselves to not giving to
the pressure of instant gratification
but to instead think about long-term
benefits if you desire to be counted
among the rich you must be able to look
beyond the immediate pleasures 8
approaching and asking since many
individuals are scared of rejection they
find it difficult to ask for the help
that is required to boost their
financial life denial is a feeling that
every rich person has to deal with
undoubtedly it hurts to be rejected
however it is more heartbreaking to
allow the fear of rejection to stop you
from attempting to ask for what will
make you productive a famous quote by
Mark Twain says twenty years from now
you will be more disappointed by the
things you didn't do than by the ones
you did so throw off the bowlines
sail away from the safe harbor if you
don't attempt you will never know little
wonder why the rich damned the
consequences and just ask
although the step between them and their
breakthrough may just be in the ostian
many individuals will instead remain
poor then risk getting rejected no man
ever made himself rich wealth comes when
you dare to approach those whose impact
will aid your success if you want to be
rich you must dare to ask nine burning
bridges this is by far the most
dangerous risk to take if you want to be
affluent in his book Think and Grow Rich
Napoleon Hill shared the story of Edward
C barney's whose ultimate desire was to
work with Thomas Edison it was said that
Edward vowed to himself with these words
here is but one thing in this world that
I am determined to have and that is a
business association with thermos a
Edison I will burn all the bridges
behind me and stake my entire future and
my ability to get what I want this
situation is a king - saying putting all
your eggs in one basket which of course
is an insane thing to do however the
reason why Napoleon Hill advised to burn
all bridges or block all exits is so
that you can fix your mind in that which
you desire
and pursue it with every ounce of
strength within you that is so that you
will make your dreams and obsessions
that you cannot back out of ultimately
if you want to be rich then you should
yield to the words of Benjamin Graham
who once said risk what you can afford
you great men they say are not
extraordinary man well they are ordinary
man with extraordinary determination for
sure there are times when you will lack
the courage to continue but always
remember you are stronger than you know
