Let’s try to get used to the fact that “Cash” is going to be the only thing on your mind for a long time to come. Don’t even tell me that you don’t intend to get rich. If you do, you might have to kindly stop reading this. I would have love to say mushy things like “ love is important” but we know what the reality is — even the loved ones will love you more or less depending on your net-worth. What? You don’t believe me? Why don’t you go ask? Don’t leave comments saying that you think otherwise — I am not in a mood to listen to stuff that looks & sounds good in movies and fairy tales.

Now that it is so important we better get to a firm understanding of the steps you need to take if you are a ‘poor’ guy shooting for big dreams. You do have another option if you felt that you don’t or can’t do any of the steps mined up below — get back to some corporate manipulation.

Step 1 — Don’t quit that job yet, but prepare to kill your self by working harder than ever: You don’t really have to quit your job and jump at a business opportunity. Like many stalwarts have already mentioned — the alternative of being able to start a part-time business is the best possible thing you could do to start tasting some extra income. However, you will see that you’d end up working much harder than ever and you are going to be pulled away form your 9 to 5 routine. Good bye lazy bum!

Step 2 — keep working feverishly and see to it that your part time business makes more than you thought it would: You will see that you will be torn to shreds by the kind of hours you will be putting in. But then, you will start liking it. The smell of the sweat of all the hard work on your skin will make it all look worthwhile. When the dollars start rolling in, it should pep you up. You will then know that your future beckons you with a golden palm pushing you where you ought to go. Remember, you haven’t quit your job yet.

Step 3 — Ignore the S&^% you need to keep up with: Here’s the thing where you will be tested as you were a surrogate rat stuck with a bunch of moron scientists. People will start talking now. They will say things like “Money is everything for you?”, ‘you got to be ashamed of yourself! How could you be so greedy?” Your family might say stuff like “You don’t make time for us anymore”, “Do we need all that money?” — What can I say? You just need to have the knack to cut it all out. Develop some kind of divine cruising system that can help you navigate all of these emotional tantrums people throw at you. On top of all this, you will begin to have self-doubts each time you fail to get that deal; make that sale; see that your income is no more constant like it used to be. Everyone who tread this path will have to go through it. Perhaps, this bit about perseverance on an earlier post should help you.
