You Can Be Right Or You Can Be Rich-But You Can’t Be BothPosted by admin on May 4th, 2009
Ever heard this saying before? I heard it just this weekend. When I first heard it, I thought that it was ridiculous until I put it into action. Most people think that being right will guarantee you success in a shot. But that is not necessarily true. To be succesful you have to educatable and willing to learn. And continue to learn for the most part. This means that you will not always be right. But being open to improve and grow will get you to success and keep you there. Sometimes being wrong or uneducated in a certain area, will open the door to a new learning experience and an opportunity to grow to higher heights.
Without tools in you toolbox you can not build a foundation let alone a structure of any strength. The Virtual Learning Place is one of many places you can go to learn from the best of the best. Reading books like The Hidden Secret To Think and Grow Rich is an amazing book that puts into practice the principles learned in the book of the same name. The point is that you have to continue to water the seeds you plant in order for them to grow. Knowledge in the water that gives life to your dreams and goals. When you stop watering them they will die. So, as the saying goes, you can be right or you can be rich but you can’t be both.

Hi Bonnie,
It was great meeting you at the event this weekend.
Your comments are right on. We’re either growing or we’re dying. I realized a long time ago that I was wrong a lot more than I thought! Now, I’d rather be rich.
Keep on growing.
Best,
Jeff
