Weekly meeting today.
Nothing much in the meeting. Didnt talk about much. But i presented a very strange but important question to the team. "How much money do you think is a lot?" and "What is an income amount which u think is a lot?".
Here are some of the replies.
Melvin - $500,000 and $5,000 a month.
Desmond Lin - $1m and $10k a month.
Derrick - $500,000 and $15k a month.
Well, I was just curious because I didnt have an answer myself. I didnt know what was a lot of money or at least i didnt feel like i knew what was a lot of money. And most importantly, I don't know what is a decent income I am aiming for.
Just before my ICT when i was really. Really doing nothing much, a hundred dollars seemed like a lot to me. Maybe a little more, like 500 seemed like a lot. Then I went to reservist and my bank account rose to $3,000. Then I started playing poker again and started making money again. Now, I don't think that $5,000 is a lot. From this, I think that i am quite financially weak. I guess this is one of the first things I would need to improve before I achieve any financial goals.
But anyway, I finally realized a very serious mistake that I have been making. I've always read that success is built upon many small successes and that to earn your first million, you gotta first learn how to earn your first thousand, first 5,000, first 10k etc. then you'll slowly learn how to earn your millions. That's working forwards.
I've always been at the "I know to make my first 5,000" and "I know I can make my first 5,000". But i've not actually gone to do it. I guess that's why i've been stuck and haven't gotten any closer to my retirement goals.
Well, I guess that would start now. Now the first goal would be to first start making my first $5,000 within a month. If i can do that, then i'll proceed to a higher amount.
