If you have read and understood “MONEY OR VALUE” and you have chosen that way, the next thing on your mind should be “The best way to make money.”
If you want to make money, you need to ask yourself some questions and make some necessary research. For example in a city like Lagos or Abuja where the combined population is over 20 million people and on the average a person spends 150 naira on food in a day. That will come to a total of 3 billion naira spent on food every day.
When people say there is no money in town, they may not be stating the truth. The truth is that there is money, but they have not been able to see it. Because you do not see money with your eyes, you see it with your mind.
Let us take our illustration a little further. The supposed 20 million people in both cities need houses to live in. Those houses are built with cement, gravel, sand, iron rods and roofing sheets. These things cost money to buy. But it is those who are selling them that make the money.
Each of the 20 million people puts on at least two pieces of cloth per day. They wear around 20 million pairs of shoes. They brush their teeth everyday with toothbrushes and toothpaste. Most of them use soap for their bath and wash their clothes. May be 70% of them move from one part of the city to the other every day. They sleep on beds which have mattresses, which need bed sheets and pillow cases. The children within the population need to go to school.
Can you see how to make money now?
What you have to do is to solve a particular kind of problem for a fraction of the people in you can by giving or adding value and money will flow in your direction. By the way, we describe the money spent in a country as its currency. Currency describes a current or something that flows. Actually, money flows. Each time you spend money, someone makes money. Why not be the one making the money? It is now your turn to prosper. Write down your own goals and work towards creating value and problems you are to solve for people.
It may not work out the way you expected the first time, but with persistence, determination and the
willingness to learn along the way, you will achieve your goals.
Another thing you should be mindful of is the fact that you will make mistakes. But do not be afraid, all you need to do is learn from your mistakes.
"Have no fear of perfection - because no one ever reaches it."
