I became a millionaire from nothing.

I didn't grow up rich.
I didn't inherit anything.
I didn't marry into money.

Below are 7 actions to become a millionaire:

1. Stop being in a hurry

My basketball coach told us to "be quick, but don't hurry."

Slow down.
Stop expecting results today.
Great results take time & patience.

2. Realize how much control you have

Stop blaming others.
Take responsibility.

You control your attitude, your effort, and your actions.

3. Take advantage of free resources

I just took a free course at Coursera over the weekend.

YouTube, Udemy, Coursera and other sites offer so much valuable information for free.

Learn the skills you need to achieve your goals.

4. Pay off and avoid consumer income

Nothing will eat away at your money more than debt and interest.

You pay twice for consumer debt:
1. You pay the interest.
2. You pay for the depreciation.

5. Create income

You know this already.

You've got to have income coming in to start to build wealth.

Find a great 9-5 and supplement in with a side hustle.

6. Buy appreciating assets

Once you start earning money, put that money to work.

Use your paycheck to buy stock funds and real estate.

You need to be good at both earning money and growing the money you have.

7. Take calculated risks

Stepping outside your comfort zone to buy real estate might be the right risk for you.

No matter what the risk is, do your due diligence upfront.

Research and then take action.
