This is my worn-edges copy of “Conversations with Millionaire”. It’s advertised on this site for a reason, y’know. Yessss, there really, truly, is a method to my mADnEsS. LOL. Saying I highly recommended it is an understatement! The book is comprised of interviews with millionaires who dish out wonderful advice about pursuing goals and life in general. Every so often I’ll thumb through it to read quotes such as:

Set a goal to become a millionaire for what it makes of you to achieve it. Do it for the skills you have to learn and the person you have to become.

There is not an unending supply of the days and the moments. In ninety years, you have ninety spring times. If some guy says, “You know, I got twenty more years” you say, “No, you got twenty more times.” If you go fishing once a year you only have twenty more times to go fishing. Now that starts to make it a bit more critical.

Many people learn about affirmations, setting goals, visualizing. All that stuff, and it’s all very important and powerful. But, a good game plan without action, doesn’t work. However, even if you have a bad game plan, but you take action, you can still get a lot further ahead.

Let’s define “mind your own business”. Here’s how I think of minding your own business. If you’re an employee, what are you doing during the day? From 8 o’clock to 5 o’clock you’re getting a paycheck. You’re minding their business. It’s what you do when you get that paycheck at the end of the day on that second Friday that matters most. Every other Friday you get a paycheck handed to you. What you do with that paycheck is when you’re minding your own business. In other words, it’s how you handle your personal financial statement. You are the CEO of your own life. That is minding your own business.

There are pages upon pages of wisdom. This book is a must-read!!!
