Can your dreams really come true through hard work?
The expression "dreams can really come true", I believe, should be taken more literally than it usually is. The expression is such a cliche that people don't realize that it's really true. If you have a dream, a goal, you need to actually visualize yourself realizing this dream or goal. You need to literally dream it. When you visualize what you want to happen, it's like you "program" your brain/consciousness to create the necessary circumstances required to create the dream, to achieve the goal. We create our own reality. Positive energy attracts positive energy, like attracts like, etc. How many people do we know that are miserable and also extremely negative people-they complain & dwell on their hardships and suffering. Through hard work, you are acquiring the knowledge, experience and wisdom to gain the confidence to visualize your goal more and more realistically, creating the positive circumstances needed to make the goal/dream a reality. Free will means that we have a choice. We can think negatively & wallow in what we don't have, or we can use what we do have and realize that the elements needed for success are within us.

28, no college degree, 2k in debt and dont have a high paying job?
6 million isnt that as impossible as people might think, especially since you have a long term outlook. Ideally, getting rid of your debt should be the first thing on the list. This will free up cash you would otherwise be spending monthly paying it down, boost your credit, and be one less headache you have to worry about. Next, you need to get a good financial picture of where your at, where your headed, and how you will get there. Without some sort of plan, people tend to just wonder around not knowing what to do next. Focus on your strengths and what you are good at doing/skills you have aquired, and stick to fields in those areas. Advancement in a job/career will be faster. Investing should be part of your overall plan. Doesnt mean you have to go big at first and it doesnt mean that the stock market is your only choice. Open an IRA account, start a business. If you are interested in stock market investing, spend a good deal of time learning first. Most new investors/traders learn fast, that the market doesnt show mercy to dumbies. It will take your money away from you. But should you do your homework, it can be very rewarding. Keep in mind that $6 million in 27 years will have much less meaning than it does today. Someone once told me, there are two ways to become rich "earn more or spend less". Till this day it really astounds me how right that was. Your situation is only a temporary one, so dont beat yourself up over it too much and certainly dont let it hinder your plans for achieving your goal. Hard work and a strong determination will take you a long way. Christian Nago CEO & Chief Investment Officer http://www.intrepidtradings.com
