pAssuming that you know what skills and assets you need to have to begin investing, its now time to uncover the 6-Step Process To Becoming A Rich Investor:br /br /1) You must develop the winning outlook.br /br /2) You must determine what kinds of investing you want to get involved in (real estate, stocks, business enterprise building etc…)br /br /3) You must build a strong business that works without you.br /br /4) You must become an accredited investor.br /br /5) You must become a great manager and delegator.br /br /6) You must teach others.br /br /strongDeveloping the winning mindset. /strongbr /br /We all learned to walk (hopefully) by crawling, falling, crawling, falling, stumbling, fallings, drunk-walking, falling, running, falling, running, falling, running. The point is this. You have to fall before you can learn to walk. Thus, it would be dishonest and disingenious for me to say that you can just develop the winning mindset today and become wealthy tommorrow. Success is at the top of the mountain and your daily actions are the small steps up the trail of this mountain. br /br /strongWhat is the winning mindset?/strongbr /br /An entire book can be written on this and entire books have been written on this, but to save you the read here is the goodness is a nutshell (see more at www.naphill.com)br /br /1) Dont dress like a moron. If you dress like an idiot, people will think that you are an idiot. People will run from you with fear or with skepticism. Nobody will want to work for you if you appear trust worthy. No attractive people will want to hang out with you if they are afraid that they might cut themselves on your mohawk. Investors will not want to mentor you if you look like a Star Wars extra. Is this fair? No. But life on Earth is not fair. Consider moving to the planet Saturn if you dont like the rules on Earth.br /br /2) Surround yourself with winners. If you hang around small-minded negative and unsuccessful people then they will eventually impose their values on you. Seek out cocksure, success-minded people and hang out with them. But dont act like an idiot or successful people will not want to be arround you.br /br /3) Spend less than you earn and eat less calories that you burn. If you want to ever get ahead you are going to have save money. So do whatever you have to do to cut yournbsp; budget drastically enough to save 20% of your income. If you ever want to be taken seriously you are going to have to main some semblance of physical health. You cant eat everything you have seen and expect people to take you seriously. Like it or not people judge you based on your visual aspect. Dont super-size anything.br /br /4) Decide to work to learn not to earn hence forth. Bottom line, your skills will pay the bills and you if you dont have skills you had better get them NOW if you ever want to get paid.br /br /strongDeterming what kinds of investment you want to get involved in (real estate, stocks, business building etc…)/strongbr /br /Only you will ultimately know what kinds of investment you feel most comfortable with, but you will never get ahead if you do not take action.br /br /strongYou must build a strong business that works without you./strongbr /br /When I started DJ Connection out of my dorm room I was focused on building a successful business at any cost. And I did build a successful business at any cost. I worked days and nights and weekends and whatever 80 hours per week I wanted. However, when my son Aubrey Napoleon-Hill Clark was born blind, it became very apparent how much my business controlled me. I could barely leave the office for 10 minutes without something falling apart. When I left the office to go to the doctors office, I would return to a see of post-it notes, urgent messages and potential abominations. Were my employees mentally deficient or was I a horrible manager? Were my systems weak? Did we have systems at all? What I observed through this personal hell, was that the busines would definately not work without me and this all had to change. And now after years of agonizing system building, culture establishing, firing and hiring the company does run successfully without me.br /br /As you build your business, you must focus on building a business that works without you. You must view your business as merely the vehicle that is transporting you to your goals. Do not view your business as they end all. (for more information on this visit www.emyth.com). br /br /strongYou must become an accredited investor./strongbr /br /To become an accredited investor, you must reduce your expenses and increase your income. Learn new skills and earn more cash. Get serious about cutting your expenses and increasing your income now.br /br /strongYou must become a great manager and delegator./strongbr /br /To become a great manager and delegator you must study great managers and delegators and then begin doing what they do immediately. To save you the time, I have compilted a brief lits of the best management books of all time. Go get them and get ready to become a super-manager!br /br /1) One Minute Manager – (visit – www.oneminutemanager.com)br /br /2) Winning – (visit – www.welchway.com)br /br /3) 21 Laws of Leadership – (visit – www.johnmaxwell.com)br /br /strongYou must teach others./strongbr /br /Becoming super-wealthy is not the end all goal. Becoming super-wealthy will just allow you to reach your goals more quickly. Becoming rich will allow you to alter the course of others future. If you know of a family who needs a hand-up (and not a hand-out), you will be able to do it. If you want to send your kids to a great school, you will be able to afford it. You will be able to do whatever you want to do. But as we all have heard countless times, to whom much is given, much is expected (even if you earned it)./p
