Lesson #4: Work For The Experience, Not The Money
| |
| In the 21st century, it takes more to run a successful company than just good business skills. For the most part, entrepreneurs do not fail because their accounting skills are below par or because they cannot find their way around a budget. Rather, according to Kiyosaki, most entrepreneurs are never able to achieve the success they so badly dream of because of the skills they lack outside of the financial realm. |

The Art of Firing
| |

You Are The Problem
| |
| In business you can often think that with better marketing and more capable staff your business and your life will improve.
However if you're disorganised and the internal business systems are the same (which is very common), then your ability to cope with additional work and find and retain good people will diminish greatly.

Life Has A Windshield
| |
| You will spend much more time behind your car's steering wheel looking through the windshield than you will spend looking in the rear view mirror. That is not to say that you shouldn't take time to glance into the rear view mirror to check for danger so you can negotiate the road ahead safer and with more efficiency. Now compare that to your day-to-day life, do you have a tendency to look behind you and see only your failures and challenges; or are you like an experienced driver who checks it periodically for safety purposes but is totally focused on what lies ahead for you? |
