How to become a millionaire seems to be a very interesting subject. Being a millionaire will surprise you if you will realize that having a million is merely having one thousand pieces of one thousand dollars, yes that is the truth of the matter or put it bluntly ten hundreds of one thousand dollar bills will make you have that beholden status of a sterling millionaire. Let me put some pragmatic ways on how to attain that status:
1. BEING A MILLIONAIRE IS MORE OF A STATE OF MIND AND BEING THAN HAVING A FAIRY TALE OF WINNING IN A LOTTERY OR INHERITING MILLIONS OF ASSETS AND MONEY. Being a millionaire is more of a discipline than having that perception that millionaires dine, wine and give expensive parties now and then. Millionaires live in mansions and tours around the world spending their money at whims, totally, a wrong perception, rather being a millionaire is more of having a state of being frugal, hard working, investment conscious and lives in a modest house. It is more of a person who is always down to earth when it comes to his overheads but always pro active in searching for ways to increase his assets that will provide him with more income. It is the person who is happily married to his wife and always focused on how to invest all his idle cash for lucrative investments.
2. MILLIONAIRES HAVE STRONG DETERMINATION TO MAKE THEIR DREAMS COME THROUGH AND SEE TO IT THEY WILL SUCCEED. Being a millionaire is similar to being a Chess Grandmaster you plan your business strategies, you must analyze the moves of your competitors, you seize the market initiative and have a dominating force to increase sales, revenues and investments. Similar to having the resolve of Winston Churchill when he said once: " We shall fight the Germans in the hills, in the valleys, in the air, in the seas, in the cliffs, in the rocks, in the plains, in the mountains and in the rivers until England shall be victorious and free."
3. MILLIONAIRES ARE ALWAYS CONSCIOUS OF THE BRAND NAME THEY CARRY AND THE HONOR ATTACHED TO IT. Goodwill is recorded and recognized in Accounting only when they are paid for. This is a living testimony that the brand name of a company is worth millions of dollars. Name a prestigious company and if you are interested to buy their brand names they are worth by the millions if not by the billions of dollars. This is so because of the goodwill that they have incurred in the market and the honor attached to their name. The honor attached to the name of the company is very important for one to become a millionaire because a product could be worth a cent or by the millions defending on the brand name it carries. Brand names of Rolce Royce, Mercedez Benz, Westing House and Microsoft are worth millions and billions of dollars because of the quality of their goods and honor attached to it. Millionaires and billionaires are so extremely cautious of their names that one instance Howard Hughes filed a suit against a publication company for branding him only as a millionaire when in reality he is a billionaire and he won a fifteen million dollar suit against the publisher. Remember what President Abraham Lincoln also once said: " Fellow citizens, whatever you do today, history will remember you in honor or dishonor by the latest generations to come."
4. MILLIONAIRES LEARN HOW TO TRADE OFF THEIR PRODUCTS, STRATEGIES AND BUSINESS. Millionaires realized the value giving importance and comfort to their stakeholders. Plans like Study now and pay later plan, Travel the world for free today, buy anything you like with the use of credit cards and use your ATMs and have the plastic money. These are all trade offs made by millionaires, provide now the comfort to your customers and bill them later on. Trade off with scholars, if the scholars could not pay in the future at least you have one gratifying act that is providing education to the youth. Trade off of letting individuals have ATM cards and they will no longer have to wait hours and hours in the bank to withdraw their money. Trade off of providing credit cards to individuals and they will no longer be the prey of robbers since they will not be carrying loads of money to purchase a product. Today the byword of millionaires is trade off.
5. MILLIONAIRES REALIZED THE VALUE OF PSYCHO CYBERNETICS. What does psycho cybernetics stands for, it simply means acting in the right manner to maintain the tempo of ones self or business. It means if your business is becoming sluggish inform and instruct your staff to put more pep in their sales strategy, if your business is incurring too much income donate some to charitable institutions or worthy causes, if your business is doing and spending much on advertisements and is turning to have material expenses curtail it by 10%. It is rather acting in such a way that the tempo of your business will not overdo in one activity neither will it tolerate performance below par.
6. MILLIONAIRES HAVE POSITIVE MENTAL ATTITUDE (PMA) TOWARDS THEIR BUSINESS AND THEIR LIVES. Millionaires are though minded optimist. They always believe that despite of all the debacles in their lives they can raise back again, never quitting until they succeed. This is the concept of the PMA, having positive mental attitude in business and opportunities in life. Remember what Napoleon Hill once said: " Sooner or later the man who wins is the man who thinks he can."
