Real Practical Advice From Billionaires of the World
Introduction
We all dream of becoming super-rich and it is in human nature to think about prosperity and success. As per the report currently, there are 2,095 billionaires and 46.8 million millionaires in the world.
How these people have acquired so much wealth in their lifetime? And as per report they collectively own approximately $158.3 trillion of wealth combined. Are these people are doing something different in their day to day life? What kind of rules do they follow which help them to stay ahead in life?
So, in this article, we are going to learn some of the best practical advice from these super-rich human beings.
Concentrate Only Three To Five Main Decisions Per Day
If you ask personally to any wealthy human being no one will say to do multi-tasking. These things are limited to those who are at the beginning or at the mid-level of their career. In fact, they will narrow down their daily decisions. They only focus on a few most urgent tasks on a daily basis. And they concentrate only on three to five most important decisions per day.
Of course, it takes time to reach this stage. But most of these billionaires are entrepreneurs and they have built their business eco-system such a way that they can focus on a few most urgent tasks. And these few most crucial decisions will give the best results to them.
Don’t Forget To Think Ahead And Create A System
If you want to become wealthy in life then you have to think like a wealthy person. Most of the billionaires of the world think ahead of their time. When most people will worry about the future because of uncertainty then wealthy mindset people will look for opportunity during this time.
These people see big problems and then they come up with suitable solutions. For example, I am not sure whether you have heard about RelWood - basically, it is an alternative solution of wood. This material is formed by bonding between the natural fibre and the polymer. It has the power to solve the problem related to the deforestation of the world. If you want to know more about it then check this RelWood website. I personally think it is a great initiative for the world by Reliance Industries Limited, guided and owned by Mr. Mukesh Ambani.
Do Your Own Research And Follow Your Guts
Most of the billionaires do their own research even before they become super-wealthy. This step differentiates them from any normal human being. For example, take the case of Mr. Ritesh Agrawal of OYO fame, who is one of the youngest billionaires in the world.
During his initial stage, he identified one basic problem related to small hoteliers. Then he did his own research and came up with solutions. His understanding and solutions worked for hoteliers.
But he didn’t stop with just one hotel, he simply replicated his solutions with a large number of hotels around the world. Although I understand due to coronavirus and lock down the hospitality, travel and the tourism industry is suffering tremendously. But Mr Ritesh Agrawal and his business proved that it’s possible to become a billionaire at the young age of 26.
Start Small And Build It Big As You Progress
Most of the billionaires and their business empire what we see today had a small start. For example, Amazon, HP, Google, Apple and even Microsoft, although they are multi-billion top world-famous IT companies, they were all started in the garage. Every great company had a small start but as they progressed they became the giants in their respective domain.
Again if we take the case of Mr. Ritesh Agrawal, he simply started with just one hotel in Gurgaon. As he progressed, he raised funds from angel investors and today OYO is the third-largest hotel chain in the world, spanning their business in more than 800 cities around the globe.
They Never Ignore Health And Get A Full Night Rest
Mentally wealthy and strong people create a different kind of mindset. They give more importance to their work and results but they never ignore their health. These people know that they can take far greater risk in life if they keep themselves healthy and fit. So, it’s my personal advice as a friend never ever ignore your health.
Having good health is a miracle and a blessing. If you ignore your health you will lose far great opportunities to enjoy life to the fullest. Give importance to what you eat and then enjoy your work in the best possible manner.
Conclusion
It is very important that we should read the stories of successful people if we want to become successful in life. We can learn a great number of life’s lessons from their career. Not only we can learn from their success stories but we can also learn from their failures. By reading this article, this looks easy but remember we need to spend lots of time, hard work, dedication and have a disciplined life to achieve this goal. Apart from these, there are many more suggestions from these billionaires.
