Value the Other's Money - as Much as Your Own

It's important to have money. One can't do much without it. Do you own a home? You'll probably realise it cost you... money. Do you own a car? Again - it doesn't take much to realise that it's impossible to own it without... money. What about food and clothing? Do you ever eat or have the need to clothe yourself? What about an extra pair of shoes or even another pair of pyjamas?! Do you think you deserve to own at least two suits - or two beautiful skirts? Some laugh! Only two?! Some have walk-in wardrobes to accommodate their clothing.

What about a holiday - every now and again? Do you think you deserve it? Think about it... it all costs money! But have you ever considered the person you're actually doing business with? Did you ever think that maybe he/she too needs the basics to live? A home! A car to get around in! They even need food and clothing to live. And if they have kids, they may even need money to educate them too. There's books to buy, and then of course the six month visit to the dentist... Do you go regularly?!

We're so focused on our own needs in life, that we very often forget that the other guy has a need to live too. Do you know that though you're happy to find a way to make the deal better on your side - you may well be taking from where you shouldn't - and thereby not allowing the other to live - just as well as you do?!

Life - and wealth of course - is about respecting the other - just as much as one respects oneself. It's about wanting for the other at least as much as one wants for oneself. So next time you're typing in words in a Google search to find a site to make you a millionaire - don't forget, we'd all like to become one. Go for the target, but never forget that all the people who will help you to get there - are just as much people - as you are. They too need to live and enjoy life as much as you do.

Success comes from an appreciation of the other's greatness - just as much as one's own. Success is about valuing the other and their wealth - just as much as valuing oneself and one's own wealth.

Making the "millions" in life we're all looking for - is about seeing the other - just like we see ourselves. That makes one a true millionaire.
