Rich Dad Poor Dad

Picture
When it comes to ambition there are different kinds of people. Some lack ambition and just try to get on with whatever they have. Some on the other hand have giant ambitions and want to be a success. “Rich Dad Poor Dad” written by Robert Kiyosaki tells you the secrets of how to be successful.

Lack of action is a big reason that prevents people from being successful. Robert Kiyosaki says that this is a mistake made by most people. They spend time studying the methods of doing things but rarely do they actually do these things. This is why their efforts to become rich come a cropper. They don’t put into practice what they learn. He says that we must take time out to assess our current situation. If we are not where we want to be as of now then we must be doing something terribly wrong.

In his book “Rich Dad Poor Dad,” Robert Kiyosaki tells us that we must have a to-do list so that we can understand what we are doing wrong. People have the habit of dreaming. Dreaming is easy and for some time it takes you where you really want to be. It doesn’t need much hard work. However a dream is not real. Reality is tougher to digest. If you really want to be successful you have to get real and follow this program.

Robert talks about five road blocks on the way to financial freedom which are:

 1. Fear

 2. Bad habits

 3. Cynicism

 4. Laziness

 5. Arrogance

Whenever people have fear, they have a habit of holding on to what they feel is safe. This way they don’t take any risks. Everybody has bad habits. Like some people who like to spend money even if they don’t have it. They don’t stop and think where the money will come from. They should actually be taking time off to figure out how they will get money.

Cynicism is contagious. You have to take precautions that you are not affected by it. If you listen to people who don’t have your best interests in heart you will end up in the wrong lane. You will get a job but you will hate it. It will make you feel that you are a slave to somebody else. Rather than this what you must do is to mingle with people who have the same goals and ambitions as you. Some people are plain lazy. Their most common refrain is “we are too tired.” This is why they are not financially independent. Some people are arrogant. They feel they know everything that there is to know about getting wealthy. What they need to do is to attend seminars where they can learn a lot and then act on their knowledge.

Everybody wants to lead the life they dream about. If you really want something in life, you must go after it constantly. However you shouldn’t become a case of burn out. This manual by Robert Kiyosaki called Rich Dad Poor Dad is for people who are dissatisfied with what they have. Robert Kiyosaki says that job security is a myth. If you want a huge source of money you must work for yourself. In his book, he tells you how to do it – the correct way.
