A joke, you think? 600,000 new American millionaires within twelve months is noticeable. 600,000 new American millionaires every twelve months from 1992-2000 has to grab you personally, more so when we find that college degrees are in the vast minority. There is no doubt, and less argument about how a thousand and more Americans are becoming millionaires every single day.
- They understand it requires about five thousand hours. Who's got 5,000 hours to spare? So they break it into a thousand smaller chunks of five hours each.
Some invest those five hours of effort into every month of their lives, taking, on average, about twenty years until they're up to eighty thousand dollars per month cash coming in.
Some invest those five hours of effort into each week, so it takes almost ten years, on average.
Some invest those five hours of effort every three days, working up to $80,000 per month in cash coming in, in as little as four years. Those who stretch themselves by investing those five hours of total effort each day, tend to hit the really high notes within three years, like the country girl using an outhouse at 14, superstar millionaire at 17 (Jewel), or the girl who slept in a car with her mother to become an actress, and less than fifty months later won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar in March, 2000. I question their talent, I admire their five-hour shots of superb effort.
You do have five thousand hours of effort in you; It's a question of when you close your mouth and get busy. Put your dream on paper cut into five smaller pieces, list every human or organization who can say "YES" to whatever it is you want, and then ask for it.
There you go. The magical, undeniable, guaranteed method of joining an oceanlike wave of tens of thousands of new self-made millionaires every month. Isn't it your turn? Imagine investing an extra five hours every single week with your significant other or your child or brother or friend, exclusively focused on quality time effort. Or picture yourself investing just five hours per month or per week learning to master a piano keyboard. With either picture, aren't you smiling? If indeed you were going to pick a business to run only five hours per month (or per week), what would you pick? Just for the heck of it, name something you love that you can invest five hours more per month or per week, really, really putting forth maximum effort to be great at whatever it is. -------_____________________---------
In all the billionaires (we have three hundred in America) and millionaires, we only find three perfectly common traits in more than 93% of them:
- Their dream is in writing so they can state it aloud often in ten words or less
- They ask for what they want more than anyone else around them does.
- They're making their fortunes -- almost exclusively-- doing something that they thoroughly enjoy… something they'd probably do for nothing… and did it for nothing before they got paid for it.
What do you want to be great at? Where do you want to go tomorrow? If you don't know for sure, you'll probably end up somewhere else. That's why this is written to you: seven of every one hundred people simply shut up and commit to five hours. Do you know what an acronym is? Each letter represents a word. So, if you understand that LUCK is acronymic for Laboring Under Correct Knowledge, good luck.
