Making Things Happen,
One Of The Secrets To Wealth
According to a survey of more than 1,400 people around the world
with an average net worth of $2 million, the wealthiest respondents
had 80% more energy than those at the bottom of the sample.
Energy, of course, is a subjective quality. In the survey,
respondents were asked to use a scale from 1 to 10, asking them how
much energy they put into certain tasks, with 10 being the highest.
The
survey found that the wealthiest of the group devoted 60% of their
energy toward focused goals like “making things happen” and “hunting
out new opportunities.” They not only focused their energy but they
also devoted more total energy (80% more) to all of these goals than
the lower samplers.
