Ever since we are kids, the majority of the people we know will tell us the same thing in terms of being successful.
- Go to school
- Get good grades
- Get a good job
- You will be all set in life.
I agree with the first three. But, have a problem with the fourth one. Here’s why. I have never seen a person who has worked all his life for someone else own a plane, or drive a Ferrari or give several million in charity. Have you? I bet you haven’t either. But, you know what? Bill Gates, Michael Dell, Warren Buffet, Rich DeVos, Dhirubhai Ambani, and many others have done all three. Do you know what is common in all these people? They are all business owners.
You see, employees are living paycheck to paycheck. They control neither their time nor money. Indirectly, the boss controls their lifestyle. But, when you become a business owner, you control everything. More importantly, you control the economic future of this great country we live in called United States of America.
It is the business owners who create jobs for the unemployed, not employees or broke union leaders. It is the business owners who work for as long as it takes to achieve success, not employees. Most employees wait until 5:00 PM, so they can hurry back home, sit their broke self on a couch and watch their idiot box.
I don’t want to beat this concept, but understand this – to achieve success in your life and make a major difference in other’s lives, we need to become business owners. Plus, you get the tax advantage. The tax laws are designed to benefit the business owners and penalize the employees. It just makes sense to become a business owner.
I know you can do it. You can become free from the slavery of a job. Do you have an idea that you have been toying with, for a while now? Do you passionately believe that it will generate good money for you? Well, what are you waiting for? Start acting on it, and become a business owner.
Respectfully,
Mayur
