Important Lessons I Learn About Making $ On-And-Offline
When it comes to starting a business be it on-or-offline, most people like to ask these 2 questions:
1. How to make money?
2. How fast can I make that money?
I used to do the same.
But after having learn from pros who actually do and excelled in what they teach, I began to realize those questions are simply irrational.
Why irrational you ask?
Because those people don't really know what they are saying let alone doing.
And I tell myself if I want to become successful, I need to stop thinking of those 2 questions let alone asking myself.
Instead what I should be thinking and asking myself are these:
Based on what I know and can do, how can I help people in such that they will eventually give me what I want?
And that question somehow triggered my childhood memories.
The time when I was down and out and-
Someone actually approached and helped me up to my feet.
Without expecting anything in return but
probably hoping I can do the same to someone else who is also down and out.
Of course I did not do it because for a 7 year old child who has been told strictly by parents NEVER approach or talk to strangers, it is extremely difficult to comprehend and challenging to act.
I don't know about you.
But having been raised and breathed in Singapore, I began to realize that if you are NOT that type of person, it will be very hard to prosper.
Don't get me wrong.
You can still get a job and make a living to survive.
But you can NEVER make a fortune.
And I am not just talking about financially.
But spiritually and morally.
And when it comes to promoting products and services, it is not so much about how good you are in marketing or even -
how competitive your niche is in terms of market demands.
It is about -
How people perceived your products and services.
Here are 2 questions in their minds and probably you and me.
1. Can they solve their problems immediately?
2. Can they fulfill their desire instantly?
Truth is if those 2 questions are being addressed properly and people like it so much that they shared with their friends and family about your products and services.
And what happens after that?
Not only it makes your marketing A LOT easier but it will also
answer those 2 questions that everyone are asking.
1. How to make money?
2. How fast can I make that money?
Very very important.
By the way, borrowing money from people and gambling are 2 WORST ways of getting money.
Not only it puts you in debts, it ruins your relationships with the people around you.
Especially your family.
