Throughout my life there have been various times when I thought I had the world by the balls.
We've all been there. We work hard, we achieve our objective and our future is as bright as it can be.
As time goes on, however, reality starts to sink in and we find out that things aren't quite as rosy as they seemed.
Life is full of "rough spots."
Almost everyone has a nightmare story about a boss who was a moron. Almost everyone has stories about office politics and brown-nosing, back-stabbing co-workers.
Almost everyone who has been in the work force for 20 years or more has been faced with a "downsizing" or two.
In virtually every case, the real stress of these situation arises from a financial point of view. After all, we all have bills to pay and most people go to work in an effort to pay the bills.
Often, I hear people say that they do their job because they "love it." To that, I say, "BULLSHIT."
I can't think of a single story where the winner of a big lottery remained at their job (not for long anyway).
(note: winning the lottery is actually a curse in most cases. Almost everyone who wins a lottery finds themselves dead broke in a surprisingly short time. I will get in to this topic in another post.)
The problem in virtually ALL CASES stems from the fact that from birth we have been conditioned to exchange our time and skills for money. When you get down to it, it's really prostitution. We learn by watching our parents, our teachers and our friends do it. We are given well intentioned advice from those we respect, "Get a good education so you can..."
So you can what?
So you can get more money for the deeds you are expected to do. These deeds are in virtually all cases things you wouldn't do without the monetary reward for doing them.
If the boss stopped paying, very few people would continue to go back to work for more than a week or two and most would stop going back the next day.
Our entire education system is built around creating good little employees. We teach our kids some rules about money and success and they are enslaved forever. The teachers and the parents don't know any different. Childrens' fate (working for money until the day they die) is sealed.
To all this I say, "END THIS INSANITY!"
Exchanging the best years of your life for a few bucks an hour is a loser's game.
There aren't enough hours in the day to EVER break free.
I don't care if you work for $1000/hour. There is NO POINT at which you will EVER be able to STOP going back to work!
On the other hand, by setting some new goals, by throwing OUT all the financial ideas I have been taught my whole life and by accepting a whole different group of ideas, I entered a new financial paradigm and was able to retire at age 47. I will never have to work for money again.
I play by an entirely different set of rules now. I never have to deal with moronic bosses, backstabbing co-workers or downsizings. I will NEVER wear a tie again.
Moreover, the concepts I live by are simple. They're easy to learn. The only problem is that they will probably conflict with every lesson you ever learned about money and success.
*************************************************
This is what I offer and this is the price you have to pay:
I offer to teach you some new rules to live by. Living by my rules will eventually result in you NEVER HAVING TO WORK AGAIN unless you choose to (and if you choose to you go back to work, you will be the one telling the boss what the rules are).
To achieve this though you must do several things (this is the cost to you:
1) You must take what I say to heart.
2) You must make these ideas your own. Look out at life THROUGH these ideas. Filter life through the ideas I give you.
3) STOP LISTENING to financial gurus who work as hard or harder than you do. They DO NOT have the answers you seek!
4) Most importantly, you have to DO what I tell you to do and do it in earnest. There will be TONS of homework.
I offer you knowledge. I cannot go out and make it happen for you. Knowledge is useless until acted upon.
You can learn everything I put out and it will be worth exactly ZERO unless you put it to work.
I offer nothing to the lazy. If you don't have the ambition to get off the couch, forget it. I have nothing for you.
Using what I offer requires UNLIMITED AMBITION, MOTIVATION AND ENERGY. It requires an undying devotion for self-improvement.
The good news is that if you put my ideas to work, you WILL buy the rest of your life back. You will eventually be able to stop taking it up the ass for the money.
The bad news is that very few people will give up the bogus and limiting ideas that are fucking them.
Therein lies your challenge.
