"Find out what most people are doing and then do the exact opposite". Jamie McIntyre
People who succeed are those who do just the opposite of others or do things differently. To be successful you must learn to follow the law of opposites to see a great difference in your life. Let's explore some of the opposites.
Mind your own businesses than others.
95% of world population work for others minding others' businesses than their own while 5% of people work for themselves and mind their businesses. This is how the world is operating today by the law of opposites. It is like the king who would always think about maintaining his own power and dominion over his people and enjoying the greatest benefits of life than his own people.
To become rich and financially free, you must do the opposite things to your counterparts. When you choose to do things differently than others you gain an edge over others. By following the law of opposites you can create lifestyle of your dreams. We must see what are the opposites that affect us so much.
Profits are better than wages.
By experiences and knowledge we know that working for profits mean more than wages but how many people do really care enough to pursue this path. Those who pursue are the people who have become rich, successful and wealthy. They followed the law of opposites and did just the opposites. When majority of people worked hard to earn wages, they chose to find ways to earn profits so that they could realize their own dreams.
Being a bank is better than a customer.
When you loan the banks your money in the form of deposits they consider it as savings and pay you less interest; on the other hand, if the bank gives you a loan, they lend you with high interest rates. Who has got more edge? Obviously, it is the bank. The banks are there not for the customers but for the banks alone. They play by different rules than the customers. But how many people really would like to do just the opposites? There are only very few people who understand the laws of nature and the human world.
Formal education and Self-education.
The academic education provides people jobs and jobs in turn provide a living. If people don't work at jobs they won't be able to feed themselves and their survival will be bleak. But people who seek self-education, they get inspired and empowered to make a fortune for themselves. The large number of population values formal education while few value self-education. Those who do the opposite gain much in life.
Pay oneself first or pay others first.
After getting the pay, people have a choice to make whether to pay for oneself first or pay others first. Those who understand the law, they prefer to pay themselves first one tenth of their income than the others who don't pay themselves first rather pay for everyone. If you want to become rich and lead an abundant life you must do just the opposite. Pay yourself first one tenth of your total income. The rich follow this honestly.
Acquire assets first than liabilities.
The rich know that assets that bring money in their pockets are more important than the liabilities that take money out of their pockets. They spend their time, energy and money in acquiring assets that would bring constant cash flow through out their lives but the poor and middle class buy liabilities that don't ensure future financial freedom. The rich understand the difference between the good debts and bad debts and follow accordingly.
Life would be transformed if we did things differently than what we used to do. If you have the habit of wasting your time and you decide to make use the best use of your time, you can easily see a great change coming on your way for better. Learn to think differently, talk differently, read and learn from others, take actions and you will be a great success in your life.
