By not fully understanding nioney, the vast majority of people allow the awesome power of money to control themThe power of money is used against them
If they used the power of the mirror, they would have asked themselves, "Does this make sense?" All too often, instead of trusting their inner wisdom, that genius inside of them, most people go along with the crowdThey do things because everybody else does itThey conform rather than question Often, they mindlessly repeat what they have been toldIdeas such as "diversify" or "your home is an asset "Your home is your biggest investment "You get a tax break for going into greater debt "Don't make mistakes
It is said that the fear of public speaking is a fear greater than death for most peopleAccording to psychiatrists, the fear of public speaking is caused by the fear of ostracism, the fear of standing out, the chanel mens watches fear of criticism, the fear of ridicule, the fear of being an outcastThe fear of being different prevents most people from seeking new ways to solve their problems
That is why my educated dad said the Japanese valued the power of the mirror the most, for it is only when we as humans look into the mirror do we find truthAnd the main reason that most people say "Play it safe1' is out of fearThat goes for anything, be it sports, relationships, career, money
It is that same fear, the fear of ostracism that causes people to conform and not question commonly accepted opinions or popular trends "Your home is an asset "Get a bill consolidation loan and get out of debt "Someday I'll be a vice president "When ! get a raise, I'll buy us a bigger house "Mutual funds are safe "Tickle Me Elmo dolls are out of stock, but I just happen to have one in back that another customer has dior gym bags not come by for yet
Many great financial problems are caused by going along with the crowd and trying to keep up with the Joneses Occasionally, we all need to look in the mirror and be true to our inner wisdom rather than our fears
By the time Mike and I were 16 years old, we began to have problems in schoolWe just began to separate from the crowdWe worked for Mike's dad after school and on the weekends Mike and I often spent hours after work just sitting at a table with his dad while he held meetings with his bankers, attorneys, accountants, brokers, investors, managers and employeesHere was a man who had left school at the age of 13, now directing, instructing, ordering and asking questions of educated peopleThey came at his beck and call, and cringed when he did not approve of them
Here was a man who had not gone along with the crowd He was a man who did his black chanel bag with white logo on the side own thinking and detested the words, "We have to do it this way because that's the way everyone else does it He also hated the word "can't If you wanted him to do something, just say, "I don't think
you can do it
Mike and I learned more sitting at his meetings than we did in all our years of school, college includedMike's dad was not school educated, but he was financially educated and successful as a result He use to tell us over and over again "An intelligent person hires people who are more intelligent than they are So Mike and I had the benefit of spending hours listening to and, in the process, learning From
intelligent people
But because of this, both Mike and I just could not go along with the standard dogma that our teachers preached, And that caused the problemsWhenever the teacher said, "If you don't get good grades, you won't do well in the real tiffany
