Mon Jul 26, 2021

Warren Buffett says “if you don’t find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die”. How does that sound?, scary doesn't it. Nobody wants to work until they die but in the real world just about everybody work until they die. Just very few people cross the ladder into financial freedom and just few people understand that you must not work hard always but you could work smart and get even better results.

If you are tired of working your ass out all day for a company that barely appreciate you, if you are tired of missing out good time with your family then its time for you to learn to make money while you sleep; in essence learning to generate passive income and live the life of your dreams.

You have to be Tired

Some people are their own prisoners, they lock themselves in complacency and never see the brighter side of life. It is easy to stay in mediocrity and deceive yourself that you are simply being contented with the little you have. It sounds good to be contented; yes, morally it really does but just so you know, there's a fine line between mediocrity and contentment.

If you have to make money while you sleep then you must be tired, dissatisfied and even angry with your current situation. Weak people give up to easily and will rather bend to the status quo rather than bare the pains of sacrifice and persistence. To succeed into financial freedom you need to copy world class examples in the spirit of persistence like Harry Bernstein who authored countless books that were rejected until age 96 when victory came his way. Nevertheless you wouldn't have to wait for that long if you follow these steps.
