One thing that we have to realize is that everyone has problems. Problems are a part of life. It seems like you have more challenges than the average person when you are focused on achieving a goal, or when you are trying to get rich. Having these 3 character traits will make it easier for you to stay on your path to financial freedom when you encounter challenges.
1. Believing that you are above average: Average people give up on their goals and dreams easily. Average people make excuses. Average people regularly fall victim to greed, selfishness, and things that sabotage their own plans and goals.
When you feel the urge to act in any way that an average person acts, realize that you are an above average person and do the things that will be most beneficial to you accomplishing your goals and dreams.
2. Being a good finder: I am a firm believer that no matter what happens to you in life there is always some good to be found. Regardless of how bad the situation may seem, if you are still living, there is some good to be found in your situation.
One of the hardest times when it seems difficult to find any good is when we lose someone who is close to us. If we are average, then we will look at this from a selfish point of view like most average people would do. We will focus on how much of a loss this is to us personally. We might even go into depression or even consider taking our own life.
If we are above average we realize that even though losing a loved one will always be a painful experience, that we are not the only person in this world to experience that same tragedy. Going through similar experiences as other people gives us the ability to relate to those people. The more people you are able to relate to, the more people you are able help.
Even if the ability to relate to other people is the only good thing that you can find in a bad experience, that alone is extremely powerful.
When you start to look for the good in every experience it will become a habit, and you will find it easier to find good, even in the worst situations. Similarly, focusing on the negative, and finding things to complain about is habitual also.
3. Having a Good Attitude: When you are put in a situation where you need to depend on the help of other people, and you are the type of person who is generally negative and complains a lot, even the most patient person in the world will eventually grow tired of you.
Having a good attitude does not mean being overly positive and happy to the point where it is annoying. Having a good attitude simply means not complaining, helping out when and where you can, being encouraging, and staying focused on, and being thankful for the good things in life.
Much Success,
