1. Give and Receive
The most assured way to receive something is to give. It comes down to your attitude towards money. To make a lot of money requires you give a lot. Not only money, but your time and diligence in working for it. At times there are people who want more, but aren’t giving anything.
Is it possible to work less and get paid more? If you want to get paid more, work more! Give more!
2. Change The Way You Think
Use your challenges as inspiration! Yes, there will be ups and downs. Plenty of the top Entrepreneurs in the world have been in debt. This is where your way of thinking needs to change, to take action and to work hard. Robert Kiyosaki used his problems as motivation to go out and make more money!
You are your biggest asset and liability.
3. Focus On What WILL Work
Follow One Course Until Successful
Quit trying to do multiple things at once and focus on the project at hand! You can clutter yourself with an overload of things and it can not only be distracting, but also exhausting.
Invest your time into something you know. There is nothing wrong with diversity, but when it slows you down and gets in the way of more important things, then you need to rethink your priorities.
Find what will work for you and stick with it. Each person is different.
4. From Bad Times To New Opportunities
People fall into a negative spin of emotions when economies crash, like when the great depression happened and when the world financial crisis hit quite a few years ago. But some see this as an opportunity to advance.
While some people are worrying, others are using this as an advantage to buy, or resolve the issues, knowing that there is a solution.
5. Design Your Business Properly
It’s not about the product, it’s about designing the business properly without having to raise the capital.
A great way to analyze and understand where your business is progressing and lacking is the B-I triangle which you can see here:
7. Quit Saving!
Don’t just save your money! This doesn’t mean to spend it because you can. Instead, use it wisely!
Use it to advance your business or invest when the opportunity arises.
I hope you enjoyed these lessons from the man himself, Robert Kiyosaki.
Very Inspirational and best tips

Joel,
These are such awesome lessons about success. As an entrepreneur, it is so important to maintain the right perspective even in difficult times. That’s a major key to success!
Hey Joel,
Love this article. Its very good example of the KISS method (Keep it simple stupid) Haha.
I feel like No. 4 really hits me. I have read so many articles from entrepreneurs of today advancing from bad economic times. Andy Frisella, Eric Thomas, etc. and you are absolutely correct! Instead of complaining or using the excuse of “It was a bad economic time” that person can talk about what a blessing it was to be one of the few to dominate that moment in life.
Hi Joel,
A great Article…!!!
Robert Kiyosaki is always my all time favorite writer, coach and financial guru. I have read his many books like rich dad poor dad, business school, business of 21st century etc.
I strongly believe in point no.2 “Change The Way You Think”. success is all state of mind. if you change the way you see the things, everything gets changed and you start getting positive waves towards you. You will come out the every worse situation if you change your mindset.
Overall a great article and enjoyed a lot.
Look simple but powerfull! Thank you very much Joel for inspiring writing. Give and Receive & Quit Saving resonates with me, I love it.

Thanks for sharing, Joel! As a CPA, your statement that read “You are your biggest asset and liability” immediately stood out. Very true! If people truly understood this, they would be able to capitalize on what they bring to the table.
Great list especially the last one is very important in my opinion just saving your money won’t get you anywhere use it in an effective and useful way and you’ll have more money in the end.
