We are taught and conditioned to believe this link is inviolate and proportionate; the more you work, the harder you work, the more money you make. And there is, of course, lots of truth to the idea, especially if you use the phrase “money you make.” But when you substitute “money you attract ”, you can break the link, and attract wealth and achieve success in great disproportion to your work.
Lots of people work very hard and work long hours but earn comparatively little, many, incidentally, in jobs you or I wouldn’t do for a day. Think coal miners, cops, farm laborers. This is proof that work alone is not the ‘secret’. Actually, it’s even proof that focusing on ‘work’ alone is an impediment to success.
So, typically, the business owner learns to make money by leveraging his abilities through other people, his products through multiple forms of distribution, his successful business through multiple locations, and his capital through investment. He still works and makes money by working; he also makes money by having others work, and by putting his money to work. Nothing new under that sun.
I’ve just described the three ways to make money. Most people use only the first; many use the first and third; few use all three. But we are still in the ‘‘making money’ box.
In my newest book No B.S. Wealth Attraction For Entrepreneurs , I deal with everything outside the ‘work box’
It’s outside that box that dramatic breakthroughs, rapid income and wealth increases, and extraordinary accomplishments occur.
