Is Money important?
What's more important than money?
💰 “I want to make a million dollars before I turn X year old.” Is that you?
Most people are just trying to make money. And that’s why they fail. Let me tell you if money is your goal, then you’ll never be rich, NEVER. Look at any successful entrepreneur and you’ll see none of them is driven by money.
🤔 So how they all made billions of bucks within just one lifetime?
The answer is: Through living your Passion. They all have built their businesses around their passion. Look at those bold letters, the core of this newsletter, BUSINESS AROUND PASSION.
Of course, Money is important to create wealth and profits but it is not the most important thing. Your passion is far more important than anything else in the entire universe.
“Steve Jobs didn’t make his billions and then want to have an impact. It’s because he wanted to have an impact that made his billions.” - Evan Carmichael
That is the pattern common in all world’s most successful entrepreneurs.
💡 Here are few other examples of successful entrepreneurs you can look up to and see what were their priorities were when they started.
“Never go into business purely to make money. If that’s the sole motive… you’re better off doing nothing” - Richard Branson
“You have to be committed, and you have to find something that you are passionate about. And forget about money.” - Chris Gardner
“What I know is, is that if you do work that you love, and work that fulfills you, the rest will come. And I truly believe that the reason I’ve been able to be so financially successful is because my focus has never, ever for one minute been money.” - Oprah Winfrey
“The most important thing is life is to love what you’re doing because that’s the only way you’ll ever be really good at it… Money was never a motivation for me, except a way to keep score. The real excitement is playing the game.” - Donald Trump
✨ So, I hope you get an idea of what’s the takeaway here. To make a lot of money, you need to have a passion. Something you don’t feel like connected to you. Do note, it doesn’t have to be just one thing. You might be passionate about many things so you need to find the intersection of all those passions and how you can make an impact using your multiple passion and make money out of them.
At last, just want to share something that popped into my mind this week, which I shared on Twitter. In case you’re not following me there, consider doing it. Thank you.
