do you know why you struggle financially
do you know why you've got no money at
the end of the month because you had the
habit of poor people
you see rich people we have very very
different habits compared to the poor
and the middle class today I'm gonna
teach you what those habits are we are
what we repeatedly do human beings we
are creatures of habits you notice that
you kind of do the same thing the same
routine over over and again and again
and again see become getting rich is not
an act it is a habit so it is staying
poor it's also not an act it's nothing
just happens to you it is a habit so let
me teach you the three best habits of
rich people the very first habit of rich
people and that is they count their
money poor people don't count their
money they get a paycheck they deposit a
paycheck they spend the money they have
no idea what the expenses are you have
no idea how the money flows you know
this poor people they alb they have a
job and wait till maybe once a year when
they found out they would text return is
the Texas that I own is how much of the
page they look at the numbers they even
look at the numbers it's just ok
all right
that's what how much I need to pay found
tax return and that's it look at it
maybe maybe once a year rich people we
don't do that we look at our numbers
regularly we are financially literate
I'm not a numbers person don't get me
wrong ok I'm a concept guy ok I'm a
big-picture thinker I'm a visionary but
I am very very careful and I'm very
aware how my money is flowing I look at
my numbers I log into my account every
single day I would look at my cash flow
I don't look at how much cash we serve I
have I sit down with my accountant every
single week look at my financials every
single week looking at my family shows
across all my companies how are they
doing because what gets measured gets
improved so have a number one rich
people we can our money regularly how
often you count your money how often
look at your bank account not bitching
about it
how often you look at your line of every
single line expense all your revenue
where that comes from is it improving
what you need to work on what are those
key performance indicators are you
looking at those numbers so that's
heaven number one habit number two is
they pay themselves first now you've
heard of this before
oh yeah I know Dan I've heard of this
this before you got to pay yourself do
you know actually what that means paying
yourself doesn't buy yourself a
car
it doesn't mean taking a vacation it
doesn't mean that you know you would you
know you go blow money on entertainment
oh yeah I'm paying money myself
no that's paying everybody else when
you're buying a car you're paying the
automotive motive company when you're
buying a house you are paying the bank
when you are traveling you're paying the
the traveling agency you're paying the
hotel you're paying the the flight
company airplane company paying yourself
meaning that you put your money aside
and you invest your money now I'm not
talking about being frugal you know if
you know anything about me you know my
work I'm not talking about being frugal
and being cheap I'm talking about taking
a piss percentage of your income and
putting that aside pay yourself first
and save it and then you invest it
that's what I mean by paying yourself
and a lot of people if you read the book
that richest man in Babylon it talks
about that you should save ten percent
of your money and pay yourself ten
percent I'm telling you nowadays with
what's happening with the inflation when
it's what's happening in the world every
thing is more expensive if you
want to get rich paying yourself ten
percent is way way way way not enough
you just at the very minimum I don't
care where you are start off with ten
percent I don't care if you make your
thirty thousand dollars a year you pay
yourself ten percent of that forty to
forty fifty sixty thousand you pay
yourself ten percent and that's your
income increases I want you to also
increase the ratio so you should at
first ten percent they should aim to
save 15% 20% 30% 40% to a point where
you are making so much more money and
then now you're only spending a small
percentage of what you earn that's your
goal that's called paying yourself so
that's habit number to pay yourself
first habit of rich people number three
and that is rich people are constantly
improving their earning ability because
you might be thinking Darren okay I want
to pay myself first but I'm not making
enough money I'm only making a few
dollars in a month i couldíve
I couldn't even afford to pay my bills
how am I gonna pay myself first first of
all you gotta have the habit of paying
yourself first if you're not paying
yourself first even a tiny small
percentage when you're making 30 40 50
60 $100,000 a year I guarantee you when
you're making a million two million
dollars a year you're not paying
yourself it is a habit that I'm talking
about and in order to do that in order
to be able to every single year to be
able to pay yourself more and more and
more and put into investments you need
to improve your earning ability you need
to find ways how you can add value to
the marketplace how to add more value to
the marketplace so every single year
your income is going up every year if
you've been you've been working in house
in the real world and you have your own
business and your income kind of stays
flat for the last two three five years
then shame on you it means you're not
learning it means you're not thinking it
means you're not growing every single
year your income you have to strive to
improve that your earning ability and
the rich people were always constantly
looking for ways to improve our earning
ability but also looking for ways to ant
leverage to apply leverage into what we
do maybe is through relationships maybe
is apply leverage through learning so I
have I know I have more ideas or more
strategies I can improve what I do maybe
is through better people that bring on
better people to my team so we can
perform at a higher level right maybe is
through marketing how could I get mine
how can I get my message out there how
can I have people know what I have to
offer we're always constantly looking
for leverage so those are the habits the
