Think Like a Rich Man by Wendy Streater

Just about everyone wants to be rich. So, how can we become rich? One way is to look at rich people and see what makes them different. If we can copy them, we can become rich.

There have been plenty of books written on the subject. Most of the good ones come up with a few simple things that the majority of rich people have in common.

One thing that impressed me most was that the really rich people are almost always very ethical. They are honest in their business dealings and value their family above all else.

Truly rich people give to charities, they are kind hearted and they seem to genuinely care for the people around them. Employees are treated well, family members are cherished and friends are more valuable to them than money.

The one thing that really stands out in the very wealthy is their unstoppable spirit. They will absolutely not take no for an answer. They will keep trying no matter how often they fail and they will persist until they find a way to get what they want.

Another thing about the rich man is that he always dreams big. He does not dream of earning a million dollars, he will insist on earning a billion, or more. He will not accept small thoughts or limitations. Impossible is not in his vocabulary or in his thoughts. 'Where there is a will, there's a way' is the rich man's motto.

Therefore, if you want to be rich you need to start by deciding to be very rich and keep working on ways to make it happen. Never accept "No" as your answer. You also have to treat people with respect and kindness and be ethical in all of your dealings.
