WRONG!

It will never stop amazing me how people are convinced that what they want, desire, aspire to is the exact same as everyone else - or should be!

An eye-opening discussion that’s happening on the Warrior forum is one started by my friend, Willie Crawford, asking how many people would be happy to make $100 a day. It’s here

Now keep in mind this is a forum frequented by heavy-hitters who make many thousands of dollars every day so coming out in the open and admitting they have ’small’ ambitions could be inhibiting and intimidating to many.

Yet, responses flooded in. I daresay if the poll had been anonymous, most would have admitted that the extra cash is all they ever wanted - to supplement their incomes and augment their lifestyles.

I polled my list before launching the ‘Internet Infopreneur SYSTEM‘ homestudy - and most respondents said their income ambitions were between $500 and $5,000 a month from being an infopreneur.

And don’t forget, we’re talking about GLOBAL audiences here. In India, where I live and practice medicine, cost of living is far less than in some other places - and higher than the rest!

It is quite possible for a middle-class family in India to have a SERIOUS boost in quality of life indices from a supplementary $500 over their regular income - and a $5,000 monthly pay hike would take them into the ‘rich’ category effortlessly!

For perspective, heart surgery for a child with congenital heart disease costs around $3,000 - while the same operation in the U.S. would be expected to cost closer to $50,000.

Yet, there is some mindless, inane chatter like

* such and such is the ONLY way to do things, or

* it’s silly to ask for feedback about a particular product because it “costs only $7, and if you won’t risk that little sum, you’re not cut out to do business”, or

* doing things without a strategy that positions you advantageously in competition against multi-BILLION dollar companies is foolhardy

Someone ought to splash a glass of ice-cold water against these folks’ faces and scream: “WAKE UP!”

That’s what may be right - for YOU.

But certainly it isn’t the ONLY way, or what’s right for EVERYONE.

The WORLD is a big, wide, vast place… and it has many different people.

To some, 3 meals a day may be enough.

To some, freedom from routine and boredom is a worthy goal.

To some, a little financial cushion means the world.

I’m always reminded of this line from John Milton’s poem, “On His Blindness”, when I’m tempted to pontificate about generalities…

“They also serve who only stand and wait.”
