Rich Dad Lessons: The power of Faith
Based on Kiyosaki’s work
Ok, let’s say you know financial freedom is important. You have studied by reading books, attending seminars, learning about business / investments and now you need to take the first step.
In this point, something stops you. You know what it is, and now you have excuses for everything. You have doubts about starting your own business or doubts about investing small amounts of money in something that you know could be profitable.
This feeling can be very strong, although it only exists in your mind. This feeling is called fear.
Fear is the bigger mental enemy of people. It paralyzes us. It forces us to find excuses. It makes us imagine tragedies and bad things that maybe will never happen.
In this point, we should demonstrate what we are made of. Probably, most people forget their dreams and their plans. Most people simply resign themselves and set the alarm clock in order to go to work the next day again, although it is not what they want to do for the rest of their lives.
We need to overcome the fear. If the fear dominate us, we will be in trouble. If the fear dominate us, it is because we let the tiny person found inside each of us beats the person that is bigger and that bigger person is also found inside each of us.
And to overcome the fear, we need two things: common sense and faith.
We need common sense: the fear only exists in our mind the same as the excuses we invent. The common sense should make us think about our future. If our future depends on an employment, actually that is more frightening.
We also need faith. If we are believer, probably we need faith in a superior force. But, mainly, we need faith in ourselves. If we don’t believe in ourselves, it is very difficult to achieve our goals.
Forget what people think about you. Think good about yourself and focus on your goals. HAVE FAITH IN YOURSELF!
