Are You Really Getting Money?

Take a ride through any metropolitan city, turn on the television or radio and you see or hear about someone engaging in the hustle or the often talked about "paper chase".  Log on to Facebook, Twitter, etc. and what you can almost always bet on reading at least once in your news feed or timeline is the same exact thing.  The world is filled with hustlers, paper chasers, dreamers, and folks talking about "they're getting money".  People of the world are infatuated with "getting money" but I wonder if they ever stopped to think that money/wealth follows GREATNESS.  You can't be mediocre or average and boast about how much "money" you're getting.  Number one, your humility needs to be fine-tuned because people that are actually getting money have no need to boast and brag about it.  Number two, people that aren't GREAT or don't strive to be GREAT fail to acquire wealth and find themselves chasing it until life's final common denominator.  Achieving GREATNESS is a mentality.  Achieve GREATNESS, exercise humility, and money/wealth will follow in abundance. 

Are you GREAT at what you do?  Do you aspire to be someone GREAT?  If your answer to these questions is no, you can't say yes to them with confidence, or you don't know what it means to be GREAT...you're probably not "getting money".  If you don't believe me, think about it.  In sports, why are some players paid a lot more than others, but yet they play the same position?  Why are certain people remembered and talked about even after they have passed decades ago?  Why did Barack Obama win the presidency over John McCain?  Why are there so many people with literary talents, but only a few obtain the prize (Pulitzer that is)?  Why are certain entertainers more renowned than others?  Having trouble seeing the bigger picture?  Just go back and do a comparison of people who have achieved GREATNESS and are actually "getting money"; what you will find in your comparison is there are those who exude excellence and GREATNESS and there are those who don't.  This is something that can go on and on, but I believe you get the point. 

First work on being GREAT and the money/fame/wealth will follow, but remember it takes humility to keep it; nobody likes an asshole; because, not so GREAT people don't obtain these things.  How do you know when you have achieved GREATNESS?  GREATNESS is achieved at the point when you stop chasing money/wealth and it starts chasing you.  GREATNESS = Humilty + Respect + Money + Power.

Think GREAT * Dress GREAT * Be GREAT
