Starting Small

[dudung]

It seems like a lot of people are in a hurry to earn their first millions or retire early in their 30s or 40s nowadays. People have become so impatient. It seems like nobody knows the value of starting small and gradually inching his/her way up the ladder of professional and financial success. Why are people in a hurry? Do people still value of starting small, hard work and sweating the small stuff?

'Coz when I read the humble beginnings of old Taipans like Henry Sy, (and other guys) it took them a lot of years of hard work before they finally reached their status right now.

But after Bill Gates succeeded, seems like he set a new world order on how to achieve financial success at a young age.

Is this good?

I think its up to the person if he/she thinks he/she can achieve what he wants to have as early as possible.

I also believe there are still people who can be rich by climbing the ladder one step at a time. I just dont know if im one of them. Believe me I climbed two steps last year 998 to go. hehehehehe


cheers!!!

If you look at recent history, you will notice that we've gone through a series of boom and bust economic cycles (with the busts, I might add, outnumbering the booms). So if people are thinking that the future will be more of the past, then many of them will tend to want to "make hay while the sun shines."
