How to become Wealthy - The Cashflow Game of Brian Tracy & Robird Kiyosaki

5 Reasons Why Most Don’t Become Wealthy


Why is it that people don’t become wealthy?
In a country like ours, with the opportunities that we have, why is it that so few people retire financially independent?  and I eventually found the answers. Here are what I consider to be the five reasons why people don’t become wealthy.

This is why people who grow up in homes where their parents are wealthy are much more likely to become wealthy as adults then people who grew up in homes where their parents are not.  So the first reason why people don’t become wealthy is it never occurs to them that it is possible for them.  And of course, if it never occurs to them, then they never take any of the steps necessary to make it a reality.

The Cash-flow to become wealthy
"There was an important diagram my rich dad showed me when I was a little boy. It was a diagram known as the Cash Flow Quadrant. And the Quadrant is made of four different people who make of the business world. 

So my rich dad said, "In the business world there are Es and E stands for employees. And the employees, you can always tell who they are by their core values. An employee with the president, the generator of the company, will always say the same words. The words are, "I'm looking for a safe, secure job with benefits." That's what makes them employees because their core value is security."
The other one of the four is the S for the small business owner or the self-employed and again their core values will cause them to use the same words which are, "If you want it done right, do it by yourself." S means they are also solo. Generally one person act, they operate by themselves. More detail-the Cashflow

10 Rules For Success of STEVE JOBS

Steven Paul "Steve" Jobs (February 24, 1955 – October 5, 2011) was an American pioneer of the personal computer revolution of the 1970s (along with engineer, inventor, and Apple Computer co-founder, Steve Wozniak). Shortly after his death, Jobs's official biographer, Walter Isaacson described him as the "creative entrepreneur whose passion for perfection and ferocious drive revolutionized six industries: personal computers, animated movies, music, phones, tablet computing, and digital publishing." Adopted at birth in San Francisco and raised in the San Francisco Bay Area during the 1960s, Jobs's countercultural lifestyle was a product of his time.

As a senior at Homestead High School, in Cupertino, California, his two closest friends were the older engineering student (and Homestead High alumnus) Steve Wozniak and his countercultural girlfriend, the artistically inclined Homestead High junior Chrisann Brennan. Jobs briefly attended Reed College in 1972 before dropping out, deciding to travel through India in 1974, and study Buddhism. More info: STEVE JOBS

What did Steve Jobs do at Apple?

Steve Jobs was not your typical Silicon Valley CEO. Unlike most tech companies founders, he had neither any engineering experience nor any business training. After all, he dropped out of college after one semester! Few people know that Steve Jobs was never CEO of Apple in his first run there: the company was run by older executives and investors, and Steve Jobs actually helped them hire an experienced, 'well-rounded' CEO in 1983, John Sculley. 

However, Jobs was kicked out of Apple by Sculley two years later and he watched him bring the company to naught during his tenure. The lesson he learned from this painful experience was to trust his own beliefs and values, and completely disregard the conventional views on how to run a company, including the traditional duties of a CEO. 

He delegated those duties to members of his executive team, most notably his second-in-command and eventual successor, Tim Cook, and focused on what he was best at: creating products, recruiting, marketing, and of course, being the public face of the company. He described it in a 2004 interview: "I get to spend my time on the forward-looking stuff. My top executives take half the other work off my plate. They love it, and I love it."

We are here to learn lessons, and the world is our teacher (Cont.)

Some things are beyond our understanding... when child is born with AIDS, when a young mother is gunned down in a hold up, when a whole village is wiped out by flood, we are left asking: "WHY?" for this things there seem to be no answers. But on a different level - on the "everyday life level"- we can find some clues.

Have you ever noticed that certain things happen to certain people? Louise gets fired about every six months, Frank seems to get sued every year, Jim gets food poisoning on vacation.

Certain things don't seem to happen to certain people. Jim never gets fired, Louise never goes to court and Frank doesn't send postcards from hospital.

Particular people get particular lessons. We can react to all of this in one of three ways.  We either say:
- "My life is a series of lessons I need, happening in perfect order." 
- "Life is a lottery, but I make the most of whatever comes along."
- "Why do bad things always happen to me?"

We are continually being presented with lessons. Unless we learn the lessons, we get to take them again... and again and again.

Call it divine plan, call it the natural unfolding of events, it is happening. Like it or hate it, it is happening. Take responsibility or claim you're a victim, fight it or ignore it, it's happening. It has been happening all your life. Every time your neighbour abused you, each time a salesman ripped you off or a lover walked out o you, there was a lesson staring you in the face.

If we are miserable seven days a week, it's likely we've missed a lesson. When we keep losing jobs, lovers, money ... it's a sign that we haven't been paying attention. as one lay remarked: "I keep getting the same old problems in a different pair of trousers!"  

The worst thing we can ever say is: "It's not fair!"

Conclusion
We are not here to be punished. We are here to be educated. 
Every event has the potential to transform us, and disasters have the greatest potential to change our thinking . ACT AS IF EVERY EVENT HAS A PURPOSE, AND YOUR LIFE WILL HAVE PURPOSE. Figure out why you needed an experience, conquer it, and you won't need it again.

"It's only by going down into the abyss that we recover the treasures of life. Where you stumble there lies your treasure. The very cave are afraid to enter turns out to be the source of what you were looking for. (Joseph Campbell)

Life is doesn't always have to be painful - but pain is still the main reason we change. Until we are in pain, we can pretend. Our ego are lonely enough, or scared enough, we become vulnerable. Our ego has no more answers, and we open up. Pain encourages us to get serious.

It's always to be easier to be philosophical about other people's pain!. We look at Jim and say: "Going broke was a huge learning experience for him. "We look at Mary and say: "That divorce help her to stand on her own feet. "We all agree: "Challenges make you stronger."  But when our own challenges come along, we are not so enthusiastic. We say: "Lord, why this? Give me a convenient challenge!  "Unfortunately, real challenges aren't convenient.

Step by Step

Life is a bit like a ladder. To move up, we have to fix the step we're one - whether it's work, relationship, money, whatever. Once the step is fixed, we move to next step. People handle their steps in different ways:

" I hate this step- I want to be on a different once."That's when we stay stuck

"I want someone else's ladder - That's called jealousy.

"To hell with  this ladder - I'm jumping off." That is called suicide.

Whenever we are stuck, we might ask ourselves: "What haven't I fixed?"

 

 

We are here to learn lessons, and the world is our teacher

When I was twelve, my most prized possession was my football. I ate with it, slept with it and I polished it weekly... instead of my shoes. I knew all about football- but on some other things, like where a baby came from, I was a little hazy.

One afternoon I was playing in the street and I lost precious ball. I looked everywhere. I figured someone had stolen it.

Eventually, I spotted a woman who seemed to be hiding it under her jacket. So, I marched and asked her "What do you think you are doing with my football stuck up your shirt?

It turned out that she didn't have my football.... but that afternoon I learned where a baby come from and what a woman looks like when she is mine months pregnant. Later that day, I also found my ball.

What fascinated me most of all, was why I had never noticed a pregnant woman before the age of ten... and why from then onward, I seemed to be surrounded by them.

Conclusion
We reach points in our life when we are ready for new information. Until then, something can be staring us in the face but we don't see it.

Why do I Need Disasters?

In relationships- when do we usually tell each other how much we care? When the marriage is falling apart, when the family is falling apart!

In school- when do we finally knuckle down and study? When we are about to fail. 
In Business- when do we try new ideas and make the the tough decisions? When we can't pay our bills. When do we finally learn about customer service? After the customers have left!

When do we usually pray? When our life is falling apart! "Dear Lord, I know I haven't spoken to you since the last time the yogurt hit the fan.."

We learn our biggest lessons when things rough. When have you made the most important decisions in your life? When you were on your knees - after disasters, after knock-backs, when you've been kicked in the head. That's when we say to ourselves: "I'm sick of being broke, sick of being kicked around. I'm tired of being mediocre. I'm going to do something."

Success we celebrate- but we don't learn to much. Failure hurts - and that's when we get educated. In retrospect, we usually notice "disasters" were turning points. 


Effective people don't go looking for problems, but when they get smacked in the mouth, they ask themselves: "How do I need to change what I'm thinking and what I'm doing?  How can I be better than I am now? "

Loser ignore all the warning signs. When the roof falls in, they ask: "Why does everything happen to me?


We are creatures of habit. We keep doing what we are doing until we are forced to change. 

So is life a series of painful disasters?
Not necessarily. The universe is always nudging us with gentle signals. When we ignore the signals, it nudges us with a sledgehammer.
Growth is most painful when we resist it.
