The Secret of Becoming Rich

Getting rich is not all about having lots of money, but having a fulfilled life. We all know that human nature is to desire more. More money, more love, more vacation, more friends, more fun and more and more….we are built to always desire more, even when we get all the things that we already wished for! Desiring more in life is the reason behind human's advancement by giving us more drive to achieve more, but it can also be the reason behind poor achievement and unhappiness!

The secret of becoming rich is learning how to desire more while keeping the balance of appreciating what you have. It sounds easy, but most people have a hard time following this simple life lesson.

We are trained to think only about what we don’t have and forget about things we already have. Our society, our family, schools and people around us only encourage achievements but never teach us how to be thankful for what we have already achieved. We forget about things we already have unless something major happens to us to remind us of them. When you get sick, you appreciate your health. When you live in a cold place, you wish you lived somewhere hot! When you have money, you waste it on things that are not so important until you lose it all. When you have a loved one, you don’t appreciate them until you lose them. When you have a good job, you look for a better job.

What if you could get rich by practicing daily to appreciate your life no matter what?

Every day from the time you wake up to the time you go to bed, find 3 things that you could be thankful for! Yes that is the secret behind becoming rich. It’s simple but yet if you start it tomorrow, it’s possible that you will forget to do it by the end of the week. I started a new subject in this blog called "To Be Thankful For!" You can come here any day and write 3 things that you are thankful for. It could be anything, even something small. For example, it could be the fact you are healthy and live in a great neighborhood. It could be that you own a car to drive around in, or that you don’t live in a violent country in one of the most troubled areas of the world, and so on and so on…

Share what you are thankful for everyday for the next 7 days, maybe others can learn from reading your positive thoughts that you don’t need to have money to be rich. Most successful people in this world have this great quality, and you could have it too! Share what makes you rich everyday!
