richest man babylone Nabuchodonosor against an empty wallet: Increase your ability to earn money

“I will speak today of one of the most important remedies against an empty wallet. Yet I will not speak of gold but of yourselves, men dressed in different colors and sitting around me . I will speak of these elements present in the minds and lives of men, who work for or against their success.

It was not long ago a young man seeking to borrow money came to see me. When I asked about the reason for his need, he explained that those revenues were insufficient to cover its expenses. Hereupon I explained to him, as was the case, it would be a bad score for a lender, as it lacked the capacity to earn more to repay the loan.

“What you need, young man,” I said, “is to earn more money. What have you done to increase your ability to earn a living?”

“All I can do” he replied. “Six times in the space of two moons I approached my teacher asking him to increase my pay, but without success. No man can ask more often than that.”

We could smile at his simplicity, yet it has one of the prerequisites for increasing its earnings. It has in its interior a strong desire to earn more, a desire suitable and recommendable.

Before performing any desire must exist. Desires must be strong and precise. Desires are generic as long nostalgia. Wish to become rich is of little interest to a man. Désirer five pieces of gold is a tangible desire for a man who can lead it to achieve it. After he realized his desire for 5 gold pieces, thanks to the strength of its objective to secure, it can then find ways to get like 10 gold coins and then 20, and later a thousand pieces and, ultimately, he became rich. By learning to make a small desire accurate, he learned to achieve a greater one. It is the process by which wealth is accumulated: first in small amounts, then larger as the man learns and increases its capacity.

Desires must be simple and precise. They keep their own implementation if there are too many, too confusing or too distant from the knowledge that man can do.

When a man is perfected in his craft, it increases its ability to make money. In the days when I was a humble scribe sculpting clay for a few pieces each day, I noted that other workers did more than me and earning more. I decided that nobody could do more than me. It does not take me long to discover the reason for their greater success. More interest in my work, more concentration on my job, more persistent in my efforts and, ultimately, few men could carve more tablets than me in one day. Quickly increased my competence was rewarded with no need for me to go see my teacher six times to ask for recognition.

The more we increase our wisdom, the more we can win. The man who seeks to learn more about his work will be richly rewarded. If an artisan, he must seek to learn the methods and tools for those who are more qualified in the same way. While working in law or medicine, it must consult and share knowledge with others in his profession. If it is a merchant, it must constantly seek to buy better products at lower prices.

That is why I urge strongly all men to be at the forefront of progress, not stagnate, or they will be left behind.

Many things can make life an interesting man, full of enriching experiences. A self-respecting man should do such things as:
- He must pay his debts with the maximum in its power, and not buy what he is unable to pay,
- It must take care of his family so they can think and speak well of him,
- He must make his will so that, when recalled by the gods, a correct and honorable division of his assets can be accomplished,
- It must have compassion for those injured and affected by misfortune and help within reason. It must implement actions to prevent their loved ones to his heart.

Thus, the seventh and last remedy against an empty wallet is to cultivate your own powers, to study and become wiser, to become more competent, and you respect yourself. You should gain the confidence you need to achieve the desires you have carefully studied. ”

How can you apply this seventh and final remedy?

Yet I see many questions posed to me that most people first look for the best rate of return or the best financial product, without having previously defined their targets and precise. With dates, amounts, levels of acceptable risk, among others. Otherwise, you just want to get richer. It’s too vague to give you the motivation to do the required daily to learn how to become rich.

As explained by George S. Clason, it is better to win like 10 euros more this month. By digging their heads for ten euros more, you will discover ways to get more then twenty, and so forth. Wanting to become rich and read articles related moves do anything if you do not have a specific goal to achieve pushing you to action. What is the difference between a person who becomes rich and one that does not turn, it is not the start-up capital, not the people you know, is the motivation that you have to become you want to be the energy that drives you every day to learn to persevere despite your mistakes.
