Whose Dreams Are You Working For Anyway?

I don't know about you, but when I wake up the first thing that I think is NOT "oh wow, how can I make my boss more money today?" It's probably more like "oh hell, I gotta go to work again today so I can pay the bills".

One of my favorite authors and speakers, Jim Rohn, has a saying: "Work harder on yourself than you do on your job. If you work hard at your job, you can make a living. If you work hard on yourself, you can make a fortune."

When is the last time you knew of a really wealthy EMPLOYEE? It's been a while hasn't it? Or if you're like me, NOT AT ALL. The business you work for will pay you just enough to survive, pay the bills and that's about it. I suppose if you were an avid investor of stocks and other securities, you might be able to become wealthy. Probably after about 30 years or so.

I finally realized this fact and began asking myself the question, "whose dreams am I working for anyway?" I have done a ton of reading, listening to seminars, soul-searching and questioning. Then I started writing. I first wrote "The 25 Rules For Success, Wealth & Happiness." This book that I have been selling successfully is basically the 25 common laws of success and achievement. These are the rules that have been constant since the beginning of humanity and intellectual thought. They are as true then as they are now.

Then I started studying business and entrepreneurship and started creating small business ventures and really understanding how business works. I then started writing a book about how to create your own business. I found that the help and training I received from the Small Business Development Center was a good start but it was really sub par and I needed much more information, I read and studied for years and got the knowledge I was seeking. I added all of that information in the book, "Self Employment 101."

By the way, all of the E-Books I have written are available to check out from this site.

In the end, I was able to successfully shift my paradigm (the way I see the world)from being an EMPLOYEE, to being a BUSINESS OWNER and have been very successful at it.

Nothing will change for you until you start to seriously ask yourself, "whose dreams am I working for anyway?"
