1. You Must have a Vision
The first step is seemingly simple but is where many people go wrong. You have to have a dream, and your dream has to be in full color. Having a dream for yourself and your family is having a vision of where you want to be in your future.
you got to have a dream if you dont have a dream how you gonna have a dream come true?
Lots of people walk through life static, never thinking they could achieve more. But you can and you have to dream it to become it!
Motivation is not enough; you have to be motivated to dream yourself through the creation and implementation of your vision.
Ask Yourself the Right Questions
The biggest question you need to ask yourself is WHY you want to be a billionaire. Dont just settle for the obvious reasonsfind out WHY deep down inside.
The reasons you pick have to be ultra compelling because they are precisely what is going to pull you through the hard times. Your whys should be much more than your wants, they should include the things that inspire your higher purpose and will keep you striving for more.
Find Good, No GREAT Mentors
You do not have to be a pioneer. There are tons of people who have done this before you and they have a lot of lessons in their experience.
Learn from these pioneers! Let them show you the way. Why spin your wheels by reinventing the wheel?
Market a Product that Can Earn 100K Per Month
If you want to dig a little pond in a corner of your backyard, a shovel may work. If you are digging the foundation for a 100-story skyscraper, you may need a little more than a shovel. How about massive earth-moving machinery?
Remember you are trying to make a million dollars, not an extra thousand a month. Marketing small ticket items is like digging a pond with a shovel. Big ticket items will give you the earth mover you need to dig your pond out effectively and quickly.
5. Create Leverage with Network Marketing (people working for you without the headache of employees)
J. Paul Getty said
This is such a true statement that it almost goes without saying. The sad thing is, so few people will walk this out in their lifetime.
There are tons of opportunities existing today that will offer the individual entrepreneur the tools of other peoples expertise and time without draining your own resources. Use them wisely.
6. Invest Wisely; Invest Like the Wealthy; Get Out of Debt
The rich stay rich because they know what to do with the money they have. Middle class people work hard for every cent of their money while the wealthy make their money do all the hard work. You wont get rich paying interest or being in debt.
Investing your money in a consistent means will mean safe returns without risk. Take the time to learn from the wealthy how to invest wisely. Above all us, you have to develop a wealthy persons mindset in all areas of finance.
7. Develop Healthy Habits: Work Out; Exercise; Eat Right
Another quote from J. Paul Getty: The individual who wants to reach the top in business must appreciate the might and force of habit. He must be quick to break those habits that can break him " and hasten to adopt those practices that will become the habits that help him achieve the success he desires.
The truth remains that you can't live one part of your life in health, wealth and goodness and forego in other areas. Eating right, working out and taking care of yourself and living a healthy life will impact your body and mind. This will spill over to all areas of your life.

8. Excellence Always
No one is perfect or is expected to be perfect. But you should always strive for excellence and no less. Even if you miss the mark you are at least striving for the best you can be. The excellence spills over to all aspects of your life, physical, mental and emotional.
Pursue your dreams with all your heart. And give it your best. Pursue excellence with as much discipline as a champion athlete. It will pay off!
9. Dream; Envision; Meditate
It is one thing to have a dream, it is another to dream. You need to do both at all times. Use powerful tools of intention, meditation and imagery to keep the dream alive and remember to proactively dream as you move through your life.
There are tons of techniques you can use. Some people may mediate, others envision and still others use vision boards, dream boards or goal maps. Some may use all the techniques combined to attract their goal. Using note cards or journals to record your desires in the present tense as if they are in the midst of happening (which they are) keep your focus adjusted and attract the dream into reality. You should always spend your time focusing on what you want rather than what you dont want!
Stay Vigilant & Dont Give Up!
Failure is not failure until you quit. Only when you throw in the towel and quit will you ever fail. Falling short of a goal is not failing. (Hey, you started, didnt you?) Changing direction is not failing. Errors in judgment is not failing. Making honest mistakes is not failing. Failure is never a lack of success. It is simply staying down after you trip or stumble. Failure is giving up and wimping out when you think the going is too tough, or when you let negative thoughts tell you cant make it.
Keep your thoughts positive and always keep on trying. As long as you do that, you are never a failure. Failure is not about making mistakes, failure is about quitting!
