I know a lot of really wealthy people. A consistent comment I hear from them about their wealth is that they have it, but they\u2019re not sure when they got it. I love<\/strong> <\/em>that comment – it always makes me laugh!<\/p>\n

Now, don\u2019t get me wrong, they absolutely know HOW<\/em> they got there – years of hard work and personal sacrifice. It\u2019s just that they don\u2019t know exactly when that tipping point from need to excess happened, when they actually became wealthy.<\/p>\n

Like any area of pursuit, if you don\u2019t have a map, you don\u2019t know how to get where you want to end up and you won\u2019t know if\/when you arrive.<\/p>\n
