Someone with a fixed mindset believes that character, intelligence, and creative ability are unmoving givens that can’t be changed in any meaningful way. Looking perfect and avoiding failure at all costs becomes a way of maint...

While everyone seems to have a good business concept, few ever execute their ideas successfully. By: Alejandro Saracho One of the main objectives of creating a business is related to the generation of wealth: for the environment, for society, and for the business owner. The generation of wealth is related to money and its correct management. Many entrepreneurs start their business as operators or technicians and never delve into money management. That makes their businesses stay small or not survive over time. That is why I decided to write this article entitled "7 secrets of money to undertake successfully": 1. Entrepreneurial Mindset Many people think that all they need to start is a good idea. Unfortunately, it is not like that, good ideas abound everywhere and are destined to die if you do not have an entrepreneurial mindset. Creating a new business requires hard work, high tolerance for frustration, being willing to carry on when it see...

Dr. Michael J. Burry from the "Big Short" Fame Is Warning People of the Upcoming Hyperinflation of the U.S. Dollar. And, Again, No One Is Listening. Dateline: Creve Coeur, MO. USA/February 26th, 2021/By: Jeffrey L. Klump He made a name for himself shorting the sub-prime housing market in 2005. Dr. Michael J. Burry made billions for himself and his investors when he decided to short the housing market. Everyone at the time thought he was crazy. This writer told people in 2003 that there would be a major crash in the real estate/housing market. I was laughed at and told real estate never goes down. Enter Michael Burry once again, and on February 20th, 2021, when he sent out a Tweet Storm from his Twitter account Cassandra@micaeljburry. In the tweets that were sent, which have since been deleted by Twitter, Burry warned everyone that we are approaching a hyperinflationary event for the U.S. dollar, similar to what happened in Weimar Germa...

What Does FEAR Mean To You And How Do You Face It? What does FEAR mean to you and how do you face it?  Everyone feels fear. I do. You do. Everyone. The only difference is how we each react to fear. I’ve always thought that fear has two meanings which sum up the two basic ways people deal with this unique and complicated emotional state. FEAR can mean: F orget  E verything  A nd  R un Or it can mean: F ace  E verything  A nd  R ise The real key to overcoming fear and not letting it control you. It’s about not caring what people think of you.  It’s about not wanting to impress anyone but yourself. It’s about having nothing to prove to anyone. When you refuse to let fear control you it becomes possible to do what you want as you pursue your passions, your desires, and your goals. I’ve felt fear in all forms.
