Ask yourself what makes you happy

.... with your early supporters. Get people excited in advance. There is a risk if the production run goes south, but this is a good way to pay for early production costs.

Just because somebody tells you no, that’s their limitation.

Just keep pressing forward until you feel you’ve come to the end of the path, but do not let the end of your path be because someone else does not believe in your idea. 

The “Poor dad”, a stereotype for the regular salary man, believes that one should work for money as an employee at a stable job. This mentality can trap a person into working a job they don’t love, but is willing to stick with because they have to pay the bills.

The "Rich dad", an entrepreneur, thinks wealth comes from experience-based learning (learn on the job, by becoming an entrepreneur) and multiple income streams.

When the “poor dad” encourages working your way up the ladder, “rich dad” laughs and says, “Why not own the ladder?”

According to Kiyosaki in his book "Poor Dad, Rich Dad", rich people do certain things poor people don't:

1. The rich buy assets (things that generate revenue like bonds), not liabilities (things that cost money like rent).
2. The rich become financial literate through experience, not by studying hard at fancy schools.
3. The rich learn to sell early on.
4. The rich manage fear better. They take more risks and don't play it safe.

1. Passive behavior: it isn't honest but geared towards being nice to others.
2. Assertive behavior: it is direct and honest, respecting others but focusing on the self.
3. Aggressive behavior: it is harmful, egoistic and is about controlling others.

Most people are either passive or aggressive. Passive people are afraid of confrontation and lie easily.
Aggressive people are not liked, as they can trample others for their own benefit.

The middle ground, assertiveness, is where you want to be: Respectful, firm, observant, and detached.
