Last month while attending a companyevent in Texas, we had the privilege of having Michael Clouse as our guest speaker. While speaking, he said that, “most people are trying to earn a 2010 income on a 1998 education.”
This one phrase had such an impact on me. People tend to complain that they are not making enough money. Their not satisfied with their current financial situation. I know I have. Ha! The thing is, your paycheck is not going to match where you are personally. And, by personally I mean improving on yourself.
“Pity the man who inherits a million dollars, and isn’t a millionaire. Here’s what would be pitiful, if your income grew and you didn’t.” – Jim Rohn
If you want something to change, you have to change. Complaining that the economy needs to be different, or your job, or the compensation plan of your business is not going to get you anywhere. Why do you think most successful people always say that you need to work on yourself before the business? Because, doing this will open the doors for everything else.
Before financial success can occur, personal growth must occur. Start with yourself first.
