My blog post today is reflective.
I want to inspire you to look within and challenge yourself to greater success by asking, 'What are my presently very good at that people are willing to pay me for without thinking twice about the price?' Or ask, 'What talents or skills can I hone and monetize to achieve financial freedom?'
The
key to great wealth in life lies in your answer to these questions.
While
all of us cannot be #1 at the same time, we all can strive for excellence at
what we do in order to do it so consistently that we are paid extremely well for it.
Look
at the following people (list) and see how this people stand out in their category. Let it remind you that it pays to be excellent and outstanding.
While some of the positions are arguable, transient or not so easy to
confirm today, the fact remains that the majority of people on this list are either
presently the best/first among equals, or they once were. And they are richer
for it:
#1
Richest man and woman on earth- Bill Gates and his wife Melinda of the Bill and Melinda Gates foundation.

best at what you do, enough for the world to pay you millions for doing it!
Cheers!
