How You Can Find the Financial Success You're Seeking
How You Can Find the Financial Success You're Seeking
- by Tony Mase
Not long ago, I received a question from a customer that
went something like this (I've edited out the personal
details):
"Tony, I would really like to ask you a question and
hopefully you will provide me a very honest answer."
"I see many different opportunities available everyday via
the mail, email, media, promotions, ebooks, etc."
"Tony, I have a family to support and I want you to know
that I am a born-again Christian and have a very good
personal relationship with Jesus everyday of my life."
"My problem is that I have searched and searched and I
continue to search for a way to earn a good living for my
family so my wife can quit working. HOW can I truly find the
prosperity that God promises and wants for his children?
What can I do in life?"
"I just got fired today after trying in-home sales and not
meeting my monthly quota! I am NOT a high pressure salesman,
but I do want to provide people with a good product or
service. I really need to find a solution! Is it to start a
website and provide info or products? I would GREATLY
appreciate your honest answer!"
This question really boils down to...
"What can or should I *do* in life to find the financial
success I'm seeking for me and my family?"
It's an excellent question and one I'm asked practically
every single day in one way or another.
In his book "The Personal Power Course", Wallace D. Wattles,
best known for his classic masterpiece "The Science of
Getting Rich", wrote:
"... you must know what you want to do. First, choose your
business. Choose the one that seems most in line with your
tastes, and which will require the use of your strongest
faculties. Select for your life work the thing you most WANT
to do. Do not become possessed by the idea that you must be
fixed by circumstances in some business or profession which
you do not like, and barred out from the one which you WOULD
like. Even though you are making money, you are not
successful so long as you are doing something you do not
like to do, and not doing the thing you want to do. The man
who feels that he is misplaced is neither wealthy nor
successful. Perhaps the most essential part of wealth-
culture consists in finding the place where you will be
happy in your work. If you are not happy in your work, you
are a slave."
And, therein lies the key...
If you want to get rich, however you define rich for
yourself, it's vitally important for you to decide what
*you* want to do based on what you *like* to do.
Here's the deal...
You can get rich in *any* business or profession.
Let me repeat that...
You can get rich in *any* business or profession!
Don't believe me?
Just take a look around you and you'll see there are people
who got rich in *every* conceivable business and profession.
No further proof is necessary.
So...
Since it's obvious you can get rich in any business or
profession, why not chose a business or profession which you
like?
You see...
Most people have this backwards. They put the "cart before
the horse", so to speak.
They decide they want to get rich and immediately start
looking for a way or ways to make more money without any
regard whatsoever to what they like to do or, just as
important, what they *don't* like to do.
In other words...
They look for a business or profession to get into based
purely on the money they think they can make.
Now...
This may work for some.
However...
It's never worked for me.
Whenever I've done anything purely for the money, which is
exactly what I spent the majority of my life doing, not only
was I absolutely miserable in the process but every single
time, without exception, I failed!
So...
My "honest answer" is this...
First...
Ignore *all* the so-called "opportunities" floating around
out there. More often than not, these so-called
"opportunities", regardless of whether they're online or
offline "opportunities", are nothing more than the
opportunity for someone else to get your hard-earned money.
Second...
Sit down and decide what it is *you* like to do.
Third...
*Think* of a way or ways to earn money doing what you like
to do.
Although you may have to develop some abilities, skills, or
talents to earn money doing what you like to do and/or you
may have to temporarily do something you don't like to do to
earn money while you're working towards earning money doing
what you like to do...
Ultimately...
Doing what you like to do, combined with constructive
thought and constructive action, will bring you the
financial success you're seeking for you and your family.
