You Want To Be Rich, But How Bad Do You Want It?

You Want To Be Rich, But How Bad Do You Want It?

I’m here to tell you, number one, that most of you say you want to be successful, but you don’t want it bad. You just kinda want it. You don’t want it as much as you want to party.”

“Some of you love sleep more than you love success! If you want to be successful, you’ve got to be willing to give up sleep. How bad do you want it?”

“When you want to succeed as bad as you want to breathe, then you’ll be successful

1. What steps are you taking to bring you closer to your dreams?

Whatever your bigger goals are in life, what are you willing to do to achieve it? Are you willing to make sacrifices? Work when others are sleeping? Eat only noodles? Break up with a girlfriend/boyfriend who is holding you back?

You may think you want it so bad, but do you really?

Any area of life where you want success isn’t going to happen overnight. If you think it’s going to be easy, this post will be a waste of time for you.

If you’re trying to run your first marathon, or build a thriving business, both will take commitment. There’s no quick fix. No pill. No secret. It takes a lot of Commitment and a lot of hard work.

2. Are you willing to make sacrifices?

Most people aren’t willing to make sacrifices to get what they want. The successful ones  do what the unsuccessful ones aren’t willing to do.

If you had a free day off of work, are you willing to spend that day doing more work? Or would you rather go out shopping?  Are you willing to skip nights out with friends? Would you wake up an hour earlier?

I watched a show about a famous chef reviving a struggling restaurant. The owner liked the idea of having a restaurant. So she opened one.

But the restaurant is a mess. The kitchen service is spotty. The food is below average. The wait staff is lazy. She has no idea how the money is being spent and if it’s helping. She’s put in 5 Million in two years and it’s getting worse.

Do I think she’s really committed? No! If she was, she wouldn’t have let things get to that point.

How does she not know where her money is spent nor where money is being wasted? That’s not running a business. She liked the idea of having a restaurant but wasn’t committed enough to learn how to run it as a proper business.

3. Committed ones don’t quit

Those who like the idea of doing something will quit after failing once or twice. They’ll say, “It’s too hard. It’s not meant to be. Oh well, I tried.” 

The committed ones don’t stop. No job will ever be perfect and it will take a great deal of commitment to be successful. 

You must do the right things even when you don’t feel like it. That’s success.

4. Take a look at yourself

Do you want to be just average or do you want to be extraordinary?

That’s why I wanted to write this post. To encourage you to take a long look at yourself and think if you are really doing enough to achieve your dreams.

Look at your actions. Look at what you’re doing in your free time. Look at the results you’ve been getting. Take a hard look at yourself and be honest.

If it feels too easy, you’re probably not doing enough.

Are you willing to spend work 16 hours like Kris Senanu of KCB’s Lion’s den? Would you continue chasing your dreams despite facing countless rejections from people?

You may think you want it really bad, but are you willing to commit everything you’ve got?

How bad do you want it?
