THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN GETTING RICH AND GREED - J V Crum, III - Success Coach, Business Coach

Greetings!

The irony is that when we pursue money at any cost, we make a series of sacrifices. One of these sacrifices can actually include making less money, not more.

Why?

When the only basis for our decisions is short-term financial gain, we often throw out our values and lose a sense of what matters most in life.

Instead of living with a sense of purpose and doing what we love, we focus on greed at the price of becoming out of sync with who we are, deep down inside.

Many people confuse greed with the amount of money one makes. The fact is someone could make 50 million a year and not be greedy, while someone else could make 50 thousand and be acting with greed.

The reason is simple.

Greed has nothing to do with the amount of money you make—it only relates to how you make it. Greed occurs whenever you make money in ways that are not in the overall best interests of yourself, others, and the world.

Getting Rich doesn’t make you “greedy” – Greed is acting against the best interest of yourself, others and the world. It has nothing to do with whether you become rich. The issue, my friend, is HOW you make your money, not how financially wealthy you become.

To Your Success,
