If you do this, then you can forget about becoming a millionaire

If you have a need for a decent convertible in front of your detached house by the beach, you better get to work.

Because you don't just become a millionaire. Unfortunately. Sorry. The sun doesn't rise for nothing. Although... The rich life doesn't seem too far away. You actually only need three qualities for it. Look, that's clear. Reasonable. Doable. Good, first: be creative. In your work, that is, because unfortunately there are still no money trees and taps with gold water. If you don't think just a little differently than the rest, you'll never get further. Work out that one exciting plan that no one else knows and go for it. Think of something that doesn't exist yet. Do just a little differently than the neighbor. Think crazy, think wild. It's a matter of daring. Dare to go for something you truly believe in. And then it's often something good. That's because people usually only persist in something they really want to believe in, and they only persist when it's really a well-thought-out and great plan.

In addition, you can do two more things. Spend your time with good people. Bad people drag you down in your life. They don't motivate you in your work, in your time, in your life. Let those people go and spend those hours wisely during the week, because that gives energy. Spending free time with your loved ones is worth its weight in gold. That way you can move forward again, you can grind again. And that's how you easily work past five, well.

And furthermore: acknowledge from time to time that something doesn't work. Just notice when you fail and don't judge it. Don't dwell on it for too long, but shrug it off and move on cheerfully. Everyone has a bad day sometimes. No, stronger still: a bad week. Or a bad month. If you're smart, you know that there are also times in your career when there's a gust of headwind and that you have to keep pushing, not give up, and especially work hard to get back on top. That is success. Success is not becoming rich while sleeping . Success is becoming rich through hard work and with ups and downs.

There. Have a nice work week, still. And oh dear if you go home before five.
