You can’t deny getting rich quickly would be a great thing. Most people would love to be able to quit their job, enjoy traveling, spending time with family, and fulfilling their life with positive well-being.
Let’s look at a great example; gambling.
Why do people play the lottery? Answer: They have the possibility of winning hundreds of thousands of dollars or even millions of dollars. In order to win the money, they have to first spend money. Well, the lottery system makes it easy of course. For example, for $1, you can buy a “quick pick” string that will give you one chance to win. Hmm, for $1 I could win a million dollars (number fluctuates for each game)…that’s a pretty good deal! For $5, I can have 5 times the number of chances to win.
There is also the ability to play instantly through scratch tickets. Depending on how much you want to “risk”, you can win more money. From $1 tickets to $10 tickets – actually, I believe there are $20 tickets too. Different ticket styles allow you to win different sums of money, it’s that simple. And, they create different interest levels based on the game style. Usually when you win a small amount, that of which might be equal to or just above what you spent, you’ll go back for more in hopes of landing a bigger prize. Who wins? The lottery does.
I wish we weren’t so prone to thinking it’s going to happen; winning or quickly making big money. As much disappointment as it can bring, the thought can be very uplifting. Well, I say that with a grain of salt especially when you’ve already been down that road.
We need to understand that the ‘Get Rich Quick’ mentality doesn’t happen the way we may invision. Likewise, opportunities that claim you can make a ton of money very quickly are simply providing hype and sales technique so that you will join/buy what they are offering. This is not to say that you can’t make money quickly, but taking a reality check is needed in these situations.
Simply put, create a plan of attack. Whether you are a member of a direct selling company or have your own product, understand it takes time to build the business. Give yourself adequate time to achieve the goals and leave additional time on top of the goal. Do yourself a favor; don’t set yourself up to be disappointed.

Bill Britt and Amway
It’s probably no secret that Amway paved the way for many of the successful companies we have today. Built on a solid success platform, Amway gave thousands of people the ability to work from home, making steady incomes.
Many people struggle today in the Internet Marketing industry but it’s not based on how companies are set up necessarily, but how much effort is really put into the business. Bill Britt built a large organization in Amway that didn’t come from hundreds of personal sales or personal sign-ups.
“There is no secret. I simply showed the plan to 1200 people. 900 said, ‘No.’ and only 300 signed up. Out of those 300, only 85 did anything at all. Out of those 85 only 35 were serious, and out of those 35, 11 made me a millionaire.” – Bill Britt
The same application can apply to many businesses that may not even be similar to Amway. Success comes from several areas; continued effort, training, motivation, hard work, belief in the product/service, open mind, and determination.
Whatever your business is or will be, never let someone keep your from success. If 11 serious people made Bill Britt a millionaire, do you think the same could happen for you?
