DAY 10: Do This One Thing To Achieve Great Financial Success

God teaches us a very important success principle that keeps all nature and the earth efficiently successful. It is ‘AUTORUN.’

One of the dictionary definition of ‘auto’ is automatic. And it also refers to 'auto-' a prefix/combining form meaning “self,” “same,” “spontaneous,” used in the formation of compound words.

The earth is in a perpetual AUTO state. The sun rises in the East in the morning, the moon goes round the earth in 29 days, you see the ‘cycles’- Water cycle, Nitrogen cycle, Kreb's cycle, etc. Nature automatically recycles its own waste, and so on.

The key to success in any business is to be able to automate the processes involved in the day to day running of the business as quickly as possible with little human input. It is a natural phenomenon that ensures a business can outlive and become far bigger than its founders.

This is true also for our finances. The earlier things are automated, the better for us. We can then sit back, simply manage and maintain the ‘system’ and processes…having more time on our hands to do other things. We all want to have extra time on our hands to do other fun things, but that is only possible when we set things into AUTORUN mode.

The earlier you learn to set your finances in autorun, the faster you can attain financial fitness, and become extremely wealthy

In Medicine, we use the term ‘at spinal level’- this means that you do things without thinking. I play the guitar and sing at the same time without looking because I have done it so many times that I now do it at my spinal level. (The opposite of that is ‘Cortical level’-from inside my brain cortex)


.

For example, do you have habits you do without even thinking? Then it means you have ingrained them into you that they now come from your spine (level)! If you must unlearn bad habits, then you need to start thinking about them again, consciously do the opposite every time you feel tempted to do them, till you eventually stop doing them.

Do you still think about budgeting? And do you fall short of doing it? Then you haven’t ingrained the habit of always budgeting into your financial schedule. Do you regularly track your expenses or you can’t be bothered about that? In fact that is why many companies in developed countries have softwares like Quicken, Mint, You Need A Budget, etc to help their citizens automate their finances, and it is my dream to set up one for Nigerians.

Do you still worry about saving/paying yourself regularly, or giving to charity or your church? Then you need to know how to pay yourself first and regularly do that without thinking about it.

Do you have issues being efficient and effective with your time? Do you find that you neglect the important things that aren’t urgent, for the urgent things that are not important, and can’t seem to help yourself until the important things have become urgently important?

Do you still fall short of paying your bills, debt- loans and mortgage? Or do you even go into debt by default/AUTORUN, then you need to learn debt control (-what makes you, who encourages you to, where and why you, go into debts easily). And of course, un-automate all those!

In Nigeria today you can instruct your bank to withdraw your savings from source and transfer to your savings account before you even see the salary at all. Some workplace Cooperative and thrift societies do this.
You can also instruct your banker to help you pay certain bills monthly. Ask about this service the next time you are in the banking hall.

Now that you know you can AUTORUN, start the process today, and become the rich person of your dreams.
