Bob worked 40 years, retired for 15 years and died at age 77.
Jim worked 5 years, retired for 60 years and died at 87.
Jill worked 50 years, never retired and died at 67.
Who was the smartest person in the room?
You are. You had the awareness to study three other lives and compare them to what you want. Now you’re able to apply 231 years of experience to your own choices.
Where did you find the life stories of these three other people?
In a book.
Biographies and how-to books compress entire lifetimes into a matter of hours. There is no better time or money investment than purchasing and reading a book about a person who has already achieved what you desire.
You have 75 cents in your pocket.
You could buy a candy bar.
Or you can buy a used book that teaches you how to earn millions. Or save time. Or escape that job. Or become enlightened. Or build treehouses. Or find a soulmate. The choices are unlimited.
Everyone has enough time to read a book. Everyone can scrape up 75 cents.
Billions of people go through life never realizing they are just eight hours and 75 cents away from learning how to attract anything they desire.
Congratulations for not being one of them.
