Are You Suffering From The JOB Syndrome?

GET A JOB!!!!!
IF YOU ALREADY HAVE A JOB, GET A 2ND JOB!!!!
THAT'S HOW YOU MAKE MONEY!!!

YOU HEAR THIS CRAP ALL THE TIME...

Now we are not against jobs, but the sad fact is that having a job will not make you rich and financially free unless you are famous athlete, movie star or music star.

This thing about having a job in 90% of the cases is pure survival and the rest is overworking. Jobs are OK for the average people. But as you know if you want to have financial success you must not be average.

JOBS stands for: Just Over Broke Syndrome

Following the crowd is stupid, leading the crowd is smart. Leaders provide jobs, followers have jobs.
If you want to be financially free you must be a leader, you must have a business and other people will work for you so you become rich and they... Well, they will be suffering from the job syndrome, but you know what? They want it and they prefer it. They prefer the sense of security instead of freedom. That's why they want to get a job. They are just different than us.

Tim Ferris - The New Rich - Best Selling Author

Timothy Ferris is probably best known for his book "The 4-hour workweek".
In this book he talks about the New Rich and the importance of having more free time.
I highly recommend this book because it will make you think.

You can learn a lot from this man. He is young, he is rich and he is cool.

Now, traditional thinking sucks. And if you want to be poor, tired, stressed etc., go that way. The sad truth is you can't learn to be what you are dreaming to be if you listen to people without a clue and people who have the old mindset. Because we are living in the information age, we have the tremendous opportunity to have access to some of the world's best sources for information. Successful people ca give you the shortcuts.

Tim Ferris is a guy who thinks outside the box. He is constantly using his brain to succeed in things and tasks where he does not have any experience. Ultimately he has built the life he had wanted for himself. And building a life is the ultimate goal for everyone.

This is a 1h+ interview with him. If you have time, watch it.

Books To Read In Order To Become Financially Successful

We have written about films to watch in order to condition yourself (conditioning is huge!!!) to become successful. We also have to talk about books. There are tons of books out there that are really good and the best thing is you don't have to pay a lot to get them. The business and marketing books usually cost between $5 and $20 so there is no excuse not to read some of them. Some of them are even shared for free online.

So here are some recommendation...

Books To Read In Order To Become Financially Successful

- All books by Donald Trump
examples: The Art Of The Deal; Think Big; How to Get Rich; Never Give Up ... etc

- All books by Robert Kiyosaki and the Rich Dad advisors
examples: Rich Dad, Poor Dad; The Cashflow Quadrant; Choose to be Rich; Unfair Advantage

- Marketing books by Philip Kotler

- "The Millionaire Messenger" by Brendon Burchard

- "The Art Of War" - Sun Tzu (it's military book)

- "Sun Tzu and the Art of Business: Six Strategic Principles for Managers" by Mark R. McNeilly

- "What Would Machiavelli Do?" by Stanley Bing

- Any Microeconomics manual with the basics

OK so this is just an example list of some very good books you can get valuable information from. I'm not saying read all these books and you will be fine. Books alone will NOT make you rich and successful but they can give you the right mindset and the right direction.

That's it.

The most important people for an entrepreneur!

We are talking about business here. The most important people for you in your business.
Many times the people you love the most in your personal life are not going to like the idea of you running a big business, especially if you are just starting. Many times your family and your friends will not give support. If you have their full support, great! But unfortunately most of us do not (or did not) have that advantage. Usually friends pull you back when it comes to business so who are the people who can push you?

These are the most important people for an entrepreneur:

Your Accountant (CPA)
Make sure you have a good one. Taxes are huge thing.

Your Banker
You don't hire him, but he usually provides the finances.

Your Lawyer
All legal things have to be OK, or you will have troubles.

Your Managers
As a big entrepreneur you have to outsource many of the managing tasks to other competent people.

Your Secretary
Or your personal assistant. They are very close to you and help you a lot.

Note: If you have well designed business, everyone in your team is important.
