The Rich Aren't Any Smarter Than Us. They Are Just More Strategic by akinmusi(m): 7:45am On Mar 28, 2016
I stumbled on this little piece and thought of it worth sharing.

A man who studied rich people for 5 years pinpointed a 15-minute daily habit anyone could start using today

Most self-made millionaires got to where they are today by developing "rich habits," a term coined by Thomas C. Corley, who spent five years researching the daily habits of rich people.

"From my research, I discovered that daily habits dictate how successful or unsuccessful you will be in life," he writes in his upcoming book, "Change Your Habits, Change Your Life."

One such habit is blatantly simple: They dedicate 15 to 30 minutes a day to just thinking.

"Thinking is key to their success," Corley observes. The rich tend to think in isolation, in the mornings, and for at least 15 minutes every day.

"They spent time every day brainstorming with themselves about numerous things," he explains. He identified 10 core topics the rich think about during this time:

careers
finances
family
friends
business relationships
health
dream-setting and goal-setting
problems
charity
happiness

They ask such questions as,
"What can I do to make more money?
Does my job make me happy?
Am I exercising enough?
What other charities can I get involved in?
Do I have good friends?
Which business relationships should I spend more time on and which ones should I pull away from?"

The wealthiest, most successful people are curious. They desire constant improvement and innovation, in their own lives and in the world. As self-made millionaire Steve Siebold, who has also interviewed over 1,200 of the world's wealthiest people, says: Rich people are problem solvers.

"When the rich need money, they don't wonder if it's possible, they simply begin creating new ideas that solve problems," he writes in "How Rich People Think." "They don't waste mental energy worrying or wondering about their ability to produce cash, they direct their concentration towards creative thinking."

At the end of the day, "The rich aren't any smarter than us," Siebold writes. "They are just more strategic."

I understand. What works for others might not work for you.

It's simple. One can just pick an area of interest. Though sometimes, specific things are of interest to one.

I for one, I think about blogging and property. It's lately I am considering thinking about some areas.

On the issue of needs, I really do not like dipping into my savings when the need to fulfil a financial obligation arises. I choose to think in a different direction.

And it sometimes work for me.

It is really what interests one.

But one can make an interest into a passion. That forms a career.

The Base line for my submission is make your hobby your work you will be happy doing it. Even when it is so little you make out of it, you will still be content.

This is actually a trend that works for some people. Trust me, when we discover our true passion about a career, one will surpass one's initial imagination and that's the reality.

I am not trying to deviate from the topic. The point is some people are yet to give their brain exercise. When you do that, you discover what you are capable of doing. Shikena,
