I would extremely advise you to read Rich Dad Poor Dad. I had personally met up with Robert last time and learn a lot from his books. By the way, you can get his book at bookstores near your place.

A business with a defined mission, a determined leader, and a qualified and unified team begins to take shape as the sections of the B-I Triangle come together. This is when the B-I Triangle becomes three-dimensional and turns into a tetrahedron.
One of the reasons I do not need a job or a paycheck is because rich dad trained me to make money from nothing.

You can invest with less risk and make more money in the stock market. All you have to do is not be an average investor. Intelligence is the ability to make finer distinctions.
So where in the old economy, content was king, in the new economy, context is king.

The boundaries of a person's reality often do not change until that person forsakes what he or she feels confident in and then goes blindly with faith. Robert Kiyosaki
One of the main reasons people are not rich is that they worry too much about things that might never happen.There was some time ago, in a city, there lived a couple who have a comfortable life. Both of them are living happily married. They have a secure job, own a house, car and those common needs you can imagine.
Basically, this couple does not need to worry much about their financial or relationship needs. But after living the same life style for years, they realized that their life seems to be so routine! It is so predictable that it seems like something is missing for both of them.
Everyday, they wake up in the morning, go to work, come back from work, go home, eat dinner (sometimes they have to dine outside) watch tv, wash car and go back to sleep. The normal, typical daily stuff. With the money they earned everyday, it would not be possible for them to go on vacation overseas a lot, go safaris in Africa or take flying lessons. You know, the lifestyle of the richer group for whom spending money is not a main concern.
What is missing!!? Their passion in life….So one day, the wife voiced out that she has had enough; enough is enough of this meaningless life, they need to find their passion in life, to enjoy life to the fullest and be better off financially. They know they can achieve more, but do not know why they are not achieving more. Achieving does not mean that they have to be millionaires, but in every other aspects of life. The husband agreed, and so they set off to find a better lifestyle and seek the passion for their life.
And amazingly, the husband is told by a successful friend of his, that there is a magical success guru living in a far, far away land, on top of the highest mountain where there is a cave. The guru lives in that cave.
The husband is excited with this news, and so after much discussion with his wife, they make a decision. They decide to seek advice from the guru for the secrets of success. They take their company leaves, save some money for traveling and off they go.
After months of searching high and low with their determination to seek the answer, finally they find the mountain where the guru lives.
Excited as they are, they make their climbs to the peak of the mountain. It is very hard and tedious, but it is worth the effort. Finally, they are at the peak. Overseeing the view of the world from the top of the mountain, they feel so confident and a peace of mind. Now, their task is to find the guru. The hard part is:
Suddenly, they see an old man, sitting at the end of the mountain rock. It seems very dangerous to sit there, because anyone can fall off anytime down the mountain and break all the bones. Of course, anyone who falls off will probably end up dead with broken bones.
So, the wife whispers to the guru, 'Excuse me, old man, are you the magical success guru that helps people to be successful?'The wife whispers again. Then, the old man turns around and stands up at the end of the mountain rock. This is even more dangerous now, because anyone can lose balance and fall off!
'Be careful, o'wise guru! You can fall down from the mountain rock if you stand so near at the end of the edge!' they warn.But the guru simply ignores what they say. In fact, he replies, 'If you want to speak with me and learn from me, you have to come closer. Come and stand beside me at the end of the mountain rock, my students-to-be.'
If they want to learn the secrets of success from the guru, they have to follow his instruction. With a lot of fear, they come close to the guru. Now, the Guru is standing in the middle with both of them standing on the left and right side of the Guru. All 3 of them are facing outwards of the mountain, they are facing the down slope of the mountain over looking the top of the world . They can fall down the mountain at any time if they are not careful. The husband's and wife's hearts are panting non-stop.
At this moment they feel so different, a feeling they never felt before, peace of mind and yet full of anxiety. Looking down the land, they feel really confident. And also a little bit afraid of falling off. It will break their bones if they fall down the mountain.
The husband is thinking, 'Now what?'.'What is the secret of success, o'wise guru?' The guru just smiles at them and replies, 'Look at the world beyond below, from here.'
Following the instruction, both of them did as instructed, looking at the world from the top of the mountain. They can see almost everything from the peak of the mountain.
Suddenly, the guru pushes them off the mountain peak!! Unbelievable!When they fall, with so much fear of death, suddenly, they realize that they can fly! And they fly…… because they have forgotten that they can fly all this while...........
By Patric ChanSome people know they can fly, but never try because they are surrounded by F-E-A-R.
So they quit.
Some people wait for a mentor to teach them how to fly. So they waited.
But, some people are 'flying' everyday, looking from below the sky, overseeing everyone who is not 'flying' just because they took a step to fly……
