3 Empowering (But Also Practical) Beliefs That You MUST Adopt If You Want to Become Wealthy
“People rarely become successful if they are comfortable in their current situation.”
-Alex Becker, 8-figure software entrepreneur
Comfort is one of the biggest enemies of wealth and achievement.
If you’re just “kinda okay” with where you are in life, then you simply won’t possess sufficient motivation to change your circumstances — you’re too comfortable.
The two biggest motivators ever devised are pain and pleasure — we’re always either running away from one or toward the other — and if you’re sitting there in the middle, not too happy and not too sad, you won’t move.
Greater happiness, greater wealth, greater relationships, greater EVERYTHING require that you MOVE.
Now, I’m not “against” comfort, so let me just say that upfront. By definition, a comfortable life is, well…nice!
It’s fine, safe(ish), and relatively uneventful. You’ll be doing alright, and you might even have flashes of happiness and contentment here and there, but you won’t be doing great.
Wealth does not respect comfort, however, and if you want to become wealthy (or even “just” rich), then you have to not only eschew at least some comfort now…
