How to become a young millionaire? That’s my goal!

Recently I was reading an article on entrepreneur.com that discussed entrepreneurship and becoming succeeful at an early age. It was an interview with Jennifer Kushell the author of Secrets of the Young & Successful: How to get everything you want without waiting a lifetime. That title alone envokes the exact thoughts I have about becoming successful. I don’t believe you have to be silver haired and in your latter years to be a great success, yet so many people put that limitation on themselves. In the article Jennifer describes the charactersitics she thinks of when the “young and successful” come to mind:

• They display high levels of optimism and confidence.
• They possess vision and passion in their dreams and convictions.
• They ensure that they surround themselves with other like-minded people.
• They’re highly resourceful, creative and inventive.
• They seize opportunities and create their own whenever possible.
• They know what motivates them.
• They have a strong sense of personal identity.
• They have spent a substantial amount of time on introspection and self-discovery.
• They refuse to let other people dictate how they should live.
• They take responsibility for their happiness.
• They spin challenges into their greatest motivators-and sometimes biggest advantages.
• Most importantly, they take control and ownership of their lives and careers early on, and never let go.

I can identify with everyone of those points. This is a good example of why we all need to constantly be on our game and searching within ourselves about what we want and how we are going to get it.
