Is wealth something for you? This question might sound silly, but it is definitely not. Most people dream to have a lot of money, maybe a big house, and a lot of cars. On the other hand, if you ask them what would be so great about all that, they can’t argue. As a matter of fact, there are a lot of people that have enormous amounts of money and still don’t find a meaning in life. They are unhappy, even though they have everything most people strive for: A lot of money.

If you have realized that money, at least in most cases, can’t bring you permanent joy in life, then you are on a good way to enjoy financial success. Unfortunately, this is not that easy. Most rich people did not strive for money in the first place. When taking a look at some of the most successful entrepreneurs of history, you will see one similarity: They wanted to change, improve or correct something. None of them started a business with the mail goal to become rich and famous, in fact most people that did that failed.

It is also a matter of motivation. If you have the dream to improve the world, you could work forever. You will see how your work positively effects the targeted area, but, however, you won’t lose your drive. On the other hand, if you do all that for money and you have made a little fortune – surprise – you see that this is not what you wanted. Quick fact: Most people that want to make money don’t make any.

They fail and continue to try it somewhere else, not knowing that they are just wasting precious time. Let’s suppose you work your ass off and you make a lot of money – what for? You now have financial security, but wasted time for something you didn’t like. Is it really worth it?
