It takes about six months to build the average house. The average builder will spend about three weeks building the foundation. In the average home, basements often leak, the foundations often crack, which can sometimes be catastrophic to the frame and roof. Average homes often require major repairs to fix the problems caused by weak foundations.
For the above-Average builder, it takes about nine months to build a house. The above-average builder will spend about six weeks building the foundation. The foundations of homes built by above average builders are very strong, they do not leak and they do not crack. Their homes do not require the types of major repairs average built homes require.
Those who succeed and become wealthy devote many years to building their foundation. They forge relationships with influencers. They hone their knowledge and/or skills. They devote hours a day in an effort to become experts within their industry.
Very few realize overnight success. Those that do are a needle in a haystack.
In my Rich Habits Study the self-made millionaires took many years to build their foundation and become wealthy:
Entrepreneur-Dreamers – 12 Years to build an average of $7,450,000 in Wealth
Big Company Climbers – 20 Years to build an average of $3,350,000 in Wealth
Virtuosos – 21 Years to build an average of $3,678,000 in Wealth
Saver-Investors – 32 Years to build an average of $3,260,000 in Wealth
93% of the Self-Made Millionaires were over 50 years old
The longer it takes to build your foundation, the stronger it will be. When the winds of economic change blow, those with the strongest foundations survive.
Focus on building a strong foundation and not on becoming wealthy.
In the process, you will become wealthy.
