As long as you are alive, you will either live to accomplish your own goals and dreams, or be used as a resource to accomplish someone else's.
~Grant Cardone, The 10X Rule~
When I thought of this topic, I immediately thought of my cartoon character holding that yellow book. LOL! I felt it had to be a giant, thick book, to really elaborate it's importance!
So what is this '10X Rule'? Well, it's a phrase that @grantcardone actually started. He wrote his book called 'The 10X Rule'.
I'm not here to rewrite the entire book, don't worry. I'm rather just going to speak about the main concept and theme of what the rule is based upon. See, many people in life complain about their situations. They moan and groan about the things going wrong with them. They have something to complain about for every situation they are in, and many of them feel rather hopeless.
You see, the truth is, there is no such thing as a bad situation. At least, for the optimist. A situation only becomes tough when you allow it to be. Plain and simple.
So many of you have something to complain about, but let me ask this question. How much effort have you been putting in?
Now, here is where the other thing comes in, and that is that many people don't know what hard work is. They say they are 'working hard', but they are only fooling themselves. It's pointless doing things that way.
Look, I do not know what your goals are. I don't want to generalize here, and say that 'if you aren't where you want to be in life', because that could be different for everyone. Let me rather put this on the topic of your finances. I can safely say, if you are broke right now, you have absolutely NO excuse.
Why do I say this? Because I am certain that you are not trying your best. Even if you think you are trying your best, I will not believe you. You simply need to be honest with yourself, and admit that you are not trying hard enough.
You want that change? Here is what it will require.. 10X MORE EFFORT!
It's quite simple. What you put in, you should get out, plus more. You need to make small profits on each bit of effort you put in.
