How Not To Be a Millionaire

Every single one of us has the potential to become successful. But why are we not doing justice to our potential? Here are five tips which can transform you from riches to rags.

You might have read a number of articles reiterating the things you have to do for becoming a millionaire. Some will have 10 tips while others 100. Well, after all those thoughts I could come up with only 5 and that too describing how NOT to become a billionaire. I am trying to see things from a negative point of view.

So, you might ask how different is this one from the former articles? Have you ever noticed how difficult it is to start a new habit? Some people can do that, but most of them cannot. For example, we all know that for a healthy body, we just need to wake up in the morning and go for jogging. But how many of us can start that new habit. Your mind will think of 100’s of excuses to stop you from doing that. Why?

This is because most people get into a comfort zone in their life. Unless and until some event forces them out, they will never venture out of the comfort zone and search for newer horizons. What I am trying to deliver through this article is a list of things which common people do, which unknowingly drains their money, time, health and productivity whereby reducing their chances to become successful. I am trying to use the power of negative dialectics to deliver these messages.

Don’t Change Unless Something Happens

Don’t change even a bit. Don’t change even if every now and then you get that strange feeling in your mind like “hey I can do better than this if I change this”. But that is when the chicken inside you tries to scare you (There is a chicken in every one of us). He always asks this question “what if something goes wrong?” That’s right. You know that everything is going good without much problem. Then, why change it? The universe is designed in such a way that even if you change the minutest thing, it can have a big impact in the future. What you are doing now decides an even in the future. But it will make sense only when that event happens and when you think back.
