Evolution XVIII

The only FREE cheese is in the mousetrap!

You don't become wealthy winning the lottery or get in inheritance.

Studies reveal that who win the lottery 10 millions, 50 millions or 100 millions, in average 10 years later those same people who won the lottery 10 years ago are broke or even in worst financial situation than before.

So how that is possible?

Someone said if we took all the money in the world, divided it up equally among everybody, it would soon all be back in the same pockets.

If we want to create wealth we need to create value. Solving problems or add value ( these are the only 2 options we have and it is how wealth is created ).

Or did I fall into entitled mentality, did I think that the world owe me something, the government owe me something, wealthy people owe me something or have I understood how the principles of wealth really work?

No anyone ends up in poverty by mistake and no one becomes a millionaire by accident right?

Someone doesn't become sick by mistake, these are all consequences of patterns, these are consequences of habits. 

We all need to have really good habits:

Here below are some good habits we should have:

a) Living with integrity ( tell the truth, truthful in our relations, truthful with ourselves, doing the right thing because we all know when we are doing the wrong or right thing to do ).

b) Eating healthy, eat for energy, we need to eat for nutrition, eat in a way that fuels our bodies and allow us to do the things we want to do.

c) Self-development, daily self-development, set aside time to read, listen everyday some good nutrition for the mind.

d) Exercise, the human machine, this body, these bodies that we have, that we live in, they work better if we exercise everyday.

e) Practice self-discipline, If we have self-discipline we exercise because we know it is supposed to do like that. If we have self-discipline we eat healthy because we know it is supposed to do like that. If we have self-discipline we do the right thing.

f) Read every day, every successful person reads everyday.

g) Taking action, we do something that takes us closer to our dreams. If we have goals, if we have objectives, dreams to accomplish, we really want to accomplish them, then we really have to take action.

So get up and move forward.

Have a great weekend and just Do life!

Evolution XV

Never be afraid of rejection!

Be different and be amazing

Nowadays most people think they have fear of failure, but they don't really have fear of failure, fear of rejection, it's fear of success.

This simple is another case of limiting beliefs that cause you self-sabotage your own success that cause to not achieve everything that you are meant to do, to step into your greatness.

Where this comes from? Fear of success? It comes for worthiness issues, not believing you're worthy, being afraid you don't deserve it.

Being afraid you are not worthy of the good that is meant to be yours.

Where that comes from? 

First of all you are your worst critic, your hardest critic.

You need to understand that you don't get the freedom you deserve, you get the freedom you believe you deserve.

Second you are afraid that you don't fit in, your friends don't like you anymore, that your family don't love you anymore, that you don't belong to the people you hang around anymore.

But why the effort to fit in?

Why we need to be different these days, if you want to be wealthy, healthy, if you wanna be happy or if you wanna be successful?

We have more than 7 billion people on the planet now.

How many of those 7 billion do you think are healthy?

Probably more than 5 billion are not healthy, they carry around too much weight, they do not do exercise, they do not eat well, do not have energy, most have degenerative diseases, so just about 2 billion people probably are healthy.

How many you think are happy?

Again a few on the planet are happy because if you check for example the percentage of people nowadays consume excessive alcohol, drug abuse ( people have these behaviors to forget the problems that they are currently facing, instead of solving them, works like an anesthesia but only the problem is when the effect finish, nothing changes, the reality comes again and probably addiction is developed to the substances, money problems can start to arise to sustain the addictions, etc ) we conclude by checking the numbers most of the people are not happy at all.

How many of the 7 billion people do you think are wealthy? Really with financial freedom, with all senses of freedom? 

How many do you think are rich, they really got the money thing out of the way?

Less than 5%.

How many of those 7 billion people are healthy, happy and free?

And now how low you think is that percentage?

Probably less then 1%.

So why would you wanna be like that the majority of people today?  

Why you wanna fit in with the crowd? Why you wanna "be normal"? 

I think now you don't!

You wanna to be different. You wanna be amazing.

So how to be healthy, happy and free?

a) Live healthy, such a simple thing, such a profound thing. But exercise every day, eat for energy. Breathe fresh air. Get some sunlight. Get some sleep, get your rest. Do this and you be very, very different just if you live healthy.

b) Question the premisse. Do your homework about good nutrition, because don't trust in the media these days, the publicity probably say you that you need to drink beer everyday or wine everyday, or probably you will find articles saying you need a cheeseburger everyday or another example you will find publicity saying that vapor cigarettes are healthy for you and they are not dangerous. These ads are there since media went out. So question the premisse. Use your common sense, be a critical thinker.

c) Grow your mind. Take classes, take continued classes on university, go to seminars and workshops of personal-development, read challenging books, read challenging blog posts, find things that cause your mind to grow.

d) Grow your consciousness. Set aside some time each day to nourish your self-development. Treat your body and after your mind ( doesn't need to be by this order ) feed your mind, your consciousness.

e) Create your own financial security. Only foolish people would wait and expect the government to take care of their retirement. If you are counting on social security to create your financial security that is insanity. Social security in most of the countries nowadays is the worst pyramid scheme in the world.

Greece today is probably the worst pyramid scheme in the world, Puerto Rico might be the second worst pyramid scheme in the world, USA social security program probably is the third worst pyramid scheme in the world ( it's actually a money game ) and another nations all around the world.

So don't expect the government to take care of you. Don't spend more than you earn.  What ever you earn. Doesn't matter what you earn, don't spend more than you earn, you have to spend less than you earn and you need to take some part of what you earn ( that earnings ) and you got to put it to work. You need to grow your wealth. Put your money to work. You need to be able to go to bed and when you wake up you are wealthier than when you go to sleep. Like that you accumulate more wealth.

But for this could happen probably you got to change some of the people you hang out with. 

You got to look about the environment you surround yourself with.

Who are the 5 people you are spending the time with more time with?

And if they say it doesn't work you are dummy and you don't gonna do it, you just simple like that don't buy the story, you can't let somebody else sell you a story about you. They are selling you a story based on fear. They fear full people that is what that people are afraid. So remember never be afraid of rejection!

Have a great weekend and just be amazing.
