Willing to fail more

One of the biggest differences between rich people and poor people was that the poor was unwilling to fail. He thought making mistakes was a sign of failure. The poor also thought that in life there was only one right answer.

The rich constantly ventured into areas that he know nothing about. Rich believed in dreaming big, trying new things and making small mistakes. The poor spent his life pretending he knew all the right answers and avoiding mistakes. That is why the end of his life, he began to make big mistakes. One of the great things about being willing to try new things and make mistakes is that making mistake keeps you humble. People who are humble learn more that people who are arrogant.

Over the years, rich go into businesses, ventures and projects he often knew nothing about. He would sit, listen and ask question for hours, days and months as he gained the knowledge he required. He was always willing to be humble and ask stupid questions. When you pretend to be smart, you are at the height of stupidity.

Rich was also willing to be wrong. If he made a mistake, he was always ready to apologize. He did not try to be right all the time. In real life, there is more than one right answer. If someone has a better right answer than you, take it. People who have only one right answer are very often three things. One, they are usually argumentative or defensive. Two, they are often very boring people. And three, they often become obsolete because they fail to notice that their once right answer is now wrong.

Rich said, do something daring and a little risky every day. Even if you do not become rich, this habit will keep your life exciting and keep you younger for years longer.

Unfortunately, the poor spent his life doing all the right things. He did the right thing when he went to school. He got a job teaching because, in his mind, it was the right thing to do. He worried about and climbed the ladder because it was the right thing to do. He ran against his boss because he was upset with the corruption in government because it was the right thing to do. At the end of his life, he spent 20 years in front of the TV set, angry because he had done all the right things and no one seemed to care. He got very angry when he thought about all of his peers who he thought did the wrong things but now were rich or in positions of power.

Rich said, sometimes what is right for you at the beginning of your life is not the right thing for you at the end of your life. Too many people are unsuccessful simply because they are afraid of changing or are unable to change with times. The reason they are unable to change is because they are afraid of being wrong. Sometimes to be right, we all need to be wrong. If we want to learn to ride bicycle, we must go through being wrong for a while. Most people are unsuccessful simply because they want to be right, but they are unwilling to be wrong. It is their fear of ailing that causes them to fail. It is there need to be perfect that causes them to be imperfect. It is their fear of looking bad that causes them to untimely feel badly about themselves.

Rich secret was designed for us to win. The challenge is to be willing to first fail so you can win. Once you understand this secret, you will be more willing to fail in order to win. As rich said, people who avoid failing also avid success. Failing is an integral part of success.

Rich was willing to fail a little each day. Poor did his best not to fail at all. The difference in these little habits made a big difference toward the end of their lives.
