Today we talk about the money coming in. You see when we talk about saving money we tend to think of only the outgoing, but in order to save money we must be bringing money in. Sure we can work more by getting a second job or ask for more hours but is that the end all be all? We often suggest that people work more but the understanding is that it will be temporary or until the crises or debt is paid off.
If you need to increase incoming cash you most likely will have to do what does not come natural…that is work in a field that you are passionate about. Strong statement I know, and studies show that 55 % of people are not satisfied with their current work. In John Maxwell’s book “Leadership Gold” he references a study that took 1500 recent college grads and sorted them into two categories. Category A, were students who were going to work for the money, category B were students who went to work in their passion regardless of money. After 20 years there were 101 millionaires…..100 of them came from category B!
The point is to work in your passion. While we all have skills, abilities and traits the question is are those being effectively used? Too often we grab a job to fulfill the bills, but I will ask you...What if you could grab a job that fulfilled you?
