10 Habits of Extremely Wealthy People!

In my career, as a big event promoter I've met a lot of wealthy, and extremely wealthy people and would like to share the ten most common traits that I've noticed in the people who have become most financially successful, so that you can begin your journey to becoming Ireland's next Millionaire.

1. They make decisions - they don't talk about it, they decide either way and move ahead. As the old saying goes, would you rather be glad you did or wish you had,
2. Come up with an idea - this is where all the money in the world comes from. People who have money have all benefited from good ideas in some shape or form. Consider McDonalds, Microsoft, Google, eBay you name it. They all began with an idea, and by acting on your own ideas you too can begin to make your fortune,
3. Formulate a plan - a bad plan is better than no plan, or as Roy Keane put it during his famous spat with Mick McCarthy, ex Manager of the Ireland squad "by failing to prepare, we were preparing to fail." Figure out the steps that you're going to need to take to get to where you want to go, roughly how long its going to take, and who do you need to get on board to help you,
4. Take action, do something, get started - the best ideas in the world don't mean anything or count for anything, unless you act upon them. Action is the secret ingredient to major success in life, and if you look around to those who are successful in your own community, it is extremely likely that you will notice that are always in motion, always active,
5. Observe what happens next - by getting into motion you are developing a prerequisite for success. This doesn't mean that you're going to make a hole in one with your first shot though, so pay attention to the results you're getting. Find out what you need to be measuring in order to know if you're succeeding or failing,
6. Correct, adapt, improve, increase - when you're succeeding you will want to gently improve things to further increase your results. If you're not, the sooner you notice and begin to make changes the better. Sometimes the difference between success and failure can be ever so slight,
7. Manage your stuff - whatever it is that you want in life, you must manage it. Good health requires a balance of work, relaxation, exercise and nutritious food. Financial success requires healthy positive cashflow that exceeds outgoings, and an excellent understanding of your own individual personal financial circumstances. The key is in paying attention to whatever it is that you want more of,
8. Persist - as Winston Churchill put it - "Never give up. Never give up. Never give up." it doesn't get much clearer than that. To succeed you simply must persist, and its only when the going is tough that you will ever truly test this ability,
9. Reinvest/Diversify - When the profits start rolling in what are you going to do now. Sit down and figure it out. How much goes where, back into the business, into your pocket, to charity wherever. Get a smart plan that will ensure the longevity of your success,
10. Celebrate - A life worth living is a life worth celebrating. By celebrating your victories, however small you will get the opportunity to celebrate more of them.

I wish you luck!
