If your goal is to make money, but you believe this fallacy, it will be extremely difficult. The goal setting theory of motivation means that you need to be positive - and realistic - to be able to reach your goal, especially if that goal is to make money. How many times do we hear that 'money makes money.' Money can make money just as easily as Ferrari can win the Grand Prix without Schumaker in the driver's seat. 'Ferrari is the Grand Prix world champion.' Do we say that? 'Microsoft invented Windows.' Do we say that? Or do we say, 'Schumaker is the world champion.' And 'Gates invented Windows.'? Of course we give credit to the person, or people. And that's because that is the reality. Money is an innate, lifeless thing. To illustrate... Let's say we want to make our money grow, then we place a $100 note in a tin and bury it, and a year later we return and dig it up. How much money will there be? Only our $100 note we placed in the tin. There is no way, on God's green earth that there can be one cent more than the original $100. People make money! And people lose money! Certainly, money can earn interest, but the person (or rather the person's intelligence) is required to invest the money to earn that interest. In this regard, a person can make a bad investment, and not earn as much interest, or can lose money. On the other side of the coin (no pun intended), a person can indulge in a business venture, and this way make money. Or lose it! Whichever route is taken, it is the intelligence of the PERSON that either makes money, or makes more money. This is the way it has always worked, and always will. Even in the event where someone has a big windfall, like winning the lottery, this money can be squandered, or made to multiply. Whichever it is, it is up to the person, to either invest wisely, or to spend endlessly. The history books are full of tales where enormous fortunes were won, and then lost. Therefore, if it is your goal to make money, don't fall into the trap of believing that 'money makes money'; it is a lifeless object, that cannot possible multiply without the intelligence of a human being. Rather, make it your goal to learn about money, and how to invest and use it to multiply. --------------------------------------- This article is available at www.colindunbar.com - the site with everything positive. http://www.colindunbar.com/biggest_fallacy.html You may use this article in your newsletter or on your web site, as long as this resource box in included in full.

Practice, Practice, Practice It may sound silly but the key to self-confidence and building more self-esteem is through practice. Practice what it is you want to feel more confident about and eventually, the confidence will show itself. That makes sense if we're talking about a skill like playing the piano. With enough practice, you naturally begin to get good at it and then you feel more confident. But what about tougher things like public speaking or meeting new people? How do you practice something that you're terrified … 2. Finger Lickin' Good: A Story of Business Hope Let's face it. Sometimes the bad outweighs the good. Business is down, customers are unhappy, employees are disgruntled and the checking account is filled with red numbers. Stack up enough of those days and you to think about packing it in. You start listening to those who say your business wasn't a good idea anyway. Before you give up, think about Colonel Sanders. Colonel Harland Sanders was a businessman just like you, but he refused to ever give up on an idea he thought worthwhile. The Colone… 3. Kokoro no Kaze: Does Your Soul Have a Cold? Feeling sad? Have you lost interest in things you used to enjoy? Perhaps you're suffering from a cold of the soul.That's the concept that has taken Japan by storm in the last five years, thanks to a culturally savvy marketing campaign launched by pharmaceutical companies to turn mild depression into an acceptable malady that a simple prescription can cure. Anyone familiar with Japan will recognize that 'kokoro no kaze' (literally 'cold of the soul') is a phrase guaranteed to resonate with the ci… 4. Up the Mountain of Faith “Help! Help! No help, I’m sliding!”“You’re on skis, Ashley. That’s the point.”The poor girl at the top of the line headed to the bunny slope lift was scared to death paralyzed with fear to the point that any tiny move seemed destined to pitch her down the mountain out of control. Her friend seemed not to understand the direness of her situation. To her skiing was easy. She didn’t understand, but I did.Always longer on doubt and fear than on calm and cool in the sports arena, I understood. The mo… |
