Which one do you believe of all the thirteen principles is the one that really sets a spark in every business proceed to. Be the success. Well without a doubt it’s definitely perverse known what you. Want what you want to do. As he started born wall achievement. Most people don’t remember clean water or do. Other warm the money or whatever but it’s more just mortgage more just warning. You have to have lived for purpose want to be a medical doctor. The urban news and then you have to study and do those things that will take your if you want to go to Florida and living Luna Virginia. You know a little you gotta go sounds but you go plan. You know least I would ask your question. Why do people she planned or vacation for and years the next. They will go they’ll get back. To the beach nursery I don’t think we’re to gold beach next year I like for to go mountain one of them but we had a wonderful dog to be troubling cause. Give us a condo to be. Discussing for one year to the next. But they don’t plan or lives. Why is it. They plan or vacation but not many people plan their lives. There are what we call. Wondering direct or October wager which way the wind blows and then they start an excuse uses. While there are law successful. Work you’ve heard of all rich people don’t pay enough taxes know the problem is sixty percent of people don’t play general search. To few people are truly. Succession. You you got money and your. Your website afterwards words or know you know what. Money is only for uses of money. You can read every book and I don’t mean the most of read thousands of books. My The books is a. Is for pumpers million reminds me of. It’s all begins yet. It all begins. He says sacred go Richie oh that’s where sure to. But a word and taking the rich action is in or seventy seven times. We don’t think about doing something you don’t think about baking a cake you get the ingredients and mix them together and you put them in the album it by not turn out to first but you don’t quit. Things that come up with confront you. It’s a challenge to keep her baby until you get it becomes it becomes a habit with the. Anyway we make our neighbors or average my gas good or bad but no doubt deftness of purpose you knowing. While we won’t is the starting point. I mean how can you change them you don’t even what you want. I mean you just have to accept laugh as it is. Then Like if you start making excuses. Because of. Of the. Your failure basically in love and so you started blaming others. Perched in. Year of school get over it they probably doing the best they could. The teachers down. Me A taxes for to. There’s no opportunities you can make excuses all you want but it’s the same effect would be you go out on your front porch shed a rock and sure. You could rock all day long and I. Feel good but it won’t take you where you want to go. You gotta make some plans and you’ve got to take. In the face worried at all it’s action is doing something about it. It it might not turn out right to first time but don’t let you quick. Most people never get started. And in some of your lectures me with as outage. How many times does the average person. Quit before they give up. And they would hard one two three different number you should know I said average the average last one because most people don’t even get started oh they would like the history of that and and And or they’ll start the low effort them say. Well it didn’t work my spouse to me it wouldn’t work I should’ve known better and this is to the of a cold or. She takes too much work or whatever start making excuses. Rather and saying this is what I am going to do. A whole sound I got home I. Am a card on Monday is. I print of your voice thousands of your simply says. If it is to be it is a plane. And it isn’t. The poor have a. Report having trouble. Is simply the fact is we look getting. Dirty available. As long as we’re blaming someone will never solve the problem. Is always something to the blame the to. Take gamer. There’s always. One. But definitely starting points definitely superb burgers knowing what you will. If you don’t know what you want how you gonna get into how would you know you. When you got it if you don’t know what you want. So What would you say is the number one key to success or when we think grow to rich but what is the number one key is it. Having the desire isn’t. A lot of people have faith but and you say what is your passionate what is your desire. Most people don’t even know that I know you say you have to know what it is they want to be. They want to be successful but they are not very clear as to what that is. Well they have to figure that out for themselves I can’t you can’t tell your kids why would you go to bed at school or med school. They’ve got to solve that problem and if adult I never get there. Because he for. That you say no to. Something like that the the. How would you go to me at school or whatever it’s kind of be what a person wants oh was it was developed a passion for because where he doesn’t turn out real well as not where will do anyway so they got an excuse but if they choose the path they want to take you to don’t make it. All I gotta do is look at emir of they didn’t take the necessary steps. Get adequate help make plans he says the started boys of the main thing is you get started must be will never get started. You’ll have obstacles it comes up in front of the. And when you said faith I think it’s important it’s not just faith do. It’s applied faith.
