You might say, "Okay, but what does this have to do with marketing" I think it has everything to do with marketing, and everything to do with why you're reading this? Section One of the things I usually do when I talk to a seminar participants say. "He's not here to learn how to make money." Of course, everyone is surprised, confused and do not know what you mean then I'll say. "Hey, if I gave you a million dollars, you do not necessarily make you happy, right?" And people are confused and frustrated by this statement, too.
But what I said then, "What if I were to give you a million dollars, but at the same time, the US government said:" The money is not worth anything else we do. "Then its value would be the new currency may be gold bars or ducks, and stayed here with a lot of greenbacks without sudden value that money means nothing?. Is worthless.
Let's take a step further. If you do not want money, if the money itself will not make you happy, what is it? There may be things that can be bought with money, a house and a car and holidays. Well, fine, but what would you give? A sense of peace, enjoyment or happiness. Bingo! Which it is ultimately what you want. You want the good feelings, you want to feel the monkey on your back, you want some peace and quiet. In his mind, the feelings associated with having money.
Money can do good, but can also harm; but it is not the money itself. Money is not the root of all evil; It is the love of money is. It says right in the Bible. How the money is used, it is the person who uses it. Now I'm not saying that to keep the money. In fact, I think that people have as much money as they want, because it gives you the freedom to choose and make decisions that can give you happiness that you want to enjoy - but can also give great pain if you know how to properly use freedom.
That's why you see people who are incredibly rich who are very happy in their lives, very concentrated, very balanced and have fun while you see people with the exact same amount of money that is addicted to drugs, are very depressed, they do not know what to do with their lives. Again, it's not the money. Money gives you freedom, and the freedom it gives you more options than before.
For example, if in a situation where you have a lot of credit card debt or have creditors calling, or you live paycheck, there is a constant tension in the back of your mind. If you had enough money you could pay all these debts and get stress from your mind. Then you have the freedom to enjoy the life you want. Money gives you the freedom to do more, to go for more holidays, to have the things you want to have.
I know people who say, "I will postpone my happiness until you are out of debt, or until I saw the perfect, or until I am able to make the ideal holiday home" and well prepared to enjoy your life until they got a certain amount of money. I think you put your life on hold - and if you need ten million or a hundred million dollars, well, I do not want to wait for you to make that kind of money before you start to enjoy your life. Could not.
What I recommend is that you build the tools, right now, to enjoy your life as it is. Because that money is usually are magnified know it today. So if someone has very little money, but they have a drug problem, then what usually happens when they enter a large amount of money they receive huge drug problem. The money does not the drug problem disappears; extended. Now suppose someone feel a little depressed when they have money, they think more money to cure their depression. Well, guess what? She does not. They realize that is rich not cure depression, and increasingly depressed!
On the other hand, if someone is beneficial if they find ways to enjoy life with the little money they have, once they get more money than we are able to give more and more to enjoy life. So determine what makes you happy now. Create happiness in your life today. Work to earn more money so you can have more freedom. This will increase the amount of happiness a hundredfold.
Problems are part of life and business life amplified. You get more problems with business, not less. So build your business around your lifestyle, and try to find things you like - or try to fall in love with things that make you more money. Make a game of it, and you will not be disappointed. Of course, some games can be a real struggle; it can be a lot of work, and generate a lot of stress, and there are certainly many challenges. However, they are also very rewarding. I think you should see everything as if it is a big challenge.
Money itself will not make you happier. It will do nothing except maybe pay some bills. They can provide you with toys, however, because business is really a game. It is difficult to think that way when you're drowning in debt, just struggling to find the money to pay the rent, or food on the table. It is difficult to see the game when you are in trouble. But if you can hold this view, and if you can learn to be content with life outside the company and the specific financial situation which is, so when things turn around, you get happy.
If happiness was only money, not people commit suicide in Hollywood, you do not have people in Hollywood or Wall Street fell into drugs, live a horrible life. They are there to make money with a shovel, and yet many of them are simply hard to be happy. But if you can learn to be content wherever you are right now, so when it finally becomes successful, you can keep that happiness and be not related to money - if the money can remain just a game for you. It can be something that is used to track, and then you can use that money to do good things and help people and to buy toys you want.
The company is just a fun game, and we all play to win - and have fun at the same time. Remember the rule and apply it to your life!
