Who is the richest person in the world? Is it Bill Gates or Sheikh Mohammed of Dubai? Is it Warren Buffet or Puff Daddy? If you are trying to figure out which of these individuals have the most money to determine who is richer, then you are short sighted and will never become rich yourself.
For one to be truly classified as RICH, there are four key components you must possess in your life, which I will outline in this blog.
The first component you have to possess is RESOURCEFULLNESS. This is the ability to handle new, complex and challenging situations in a timely manner without stressing out. A resourceful person looks at a situation to fix it and not complain about it. They spend their time searching for solutions and not pointing blame.
Next a rich person will be INSIGHTFUL. Insight deals with your perspective on a situation. How do you see what you see? This will determine your attitude about it. The story of creation in the Bible states that God looked at the earth and it was void, without form and darkness was all around. Because of his insight, God determined that what he saw presented a great opportunity to plant something new. Insight says that there is always an answer to a problem.
Thirdly a rich person has CREDIBILITY. They can be trusted to follow through on their word. A rich person will always under commit and over perform. Their time management skills are great, and they never seem over worked. People believe and want to work for a person that is credible.
Lastly a rich person is full of HEART. The bottom line is not a number, its people. How you treat those who work for you or with you, determines how rich you are. People are the greatest asset to the planet, if you fail to realize this truth, you can never be rich. Learn to serve humanity from the heart and you will be RICH beyond your wildest dreams.
