Secrets of Millionaires and Successful Entrepreneurs Print E-mail

During the weekend, I tried to see if there's a "probinsyano.com." Maybe I was interested because Probinsyano in the City is one of the categories in my main blog. Lo and behold, the link is being redirected to 10 Sikreto ng mga Mayayaman (10 Secrets of the Rich). According to the site, it's  the "first practical book of its kind in the Philippines that will empower you to realistically attain wealth by learning the inner secrets of today’s millionaires and tycoons." Sounds promising, although I can't really comment because I don't know the author and I haven't read the book.

Anyway, it's amazing how you could read about the "secrets" of millionaires in every turn you make in the internet superhighway. One of the "secrets" stated in the article Secrets of the millionaires is being your own boss -- many who have decided to start businesses on their own have been handsomely rewarded for taking the chance. Of course, so many have failed. Still, as Robert Kiyosaki beautifully explained in his best-selling book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, you have to get out of the rat race and be your own boss. You have to get out of your comfort zone and start your own business.

One of the tips in Get rich: Women millionaires share secrets is to find a business model and copy it, although this doesn't always work. The secret, as stated in 6 Secrets Millionaires Know That You Don't (Entrepreneur.com), is that networking is not working, and that millionaire entrepreneurs are selective about relationship building. A strong family tie is also a key ingredient. As noted in the article Secrets of the Wealthy: What Many Millionaires Have in Common, 92% of the millionaires are married. You will note that the nurturing quality and the acceptance of responsibility, both of which are inherent in strong marriages, are also the traits of entrepreneurs. In the end, these "secrets" are useless if you don't have what it takes.

Now, going through all these, I realized that practically anyone could write about tips and guides on creating wealth and earning millions. So many books and articles have been written about how to become a millionaire. Some of these books on millions and millionaires have become bestsellers and earned millions for their authors, while other books have, well, poor results. (Part 2)
