Why emotional maturity can lead to wealth creation.

Let me begin by giving this quote by Abigail Van Buren. Maturity is: The ability to stick with a job until it’s finished; The ability to do a job without being supervised; The ability to carry money without spending it; and The ability to bear an injustice without wanting to get even So the question is: Have you done everything that you thought was necessary to have the life style that you wanted only to be asking yourself, What happened? Why am I not where I thought I would be? Why am I not accomplishing my goals and dreams? What am I doing wrong? Could it be that we are moving in the wrong way? Sometimes when we are not moving in the direction that we want to go in, its easy to blame outside factors like: the product is bad, the economy is down, theres to much competition, people dont like strangers, the market is saturated or the compensation plan is weak etc. There are tons of reasons why we are not getting the results we want when it comes to getting out of debt, losing weight or getting a promotion. What most people dont realize. Is that when you start a new business, try to lose weight or move up in your job, it requires a huge amount of maturity. WHY? because people make decisions based on emotions. You may have heard that statement that says: People make decisions to either avoid pain or gain pleasure. Problem is most people are comfortable with someone else planning their lives, running their schedules, planning out their days and giving them directions. But when that direction is released, people easily become complacent, lazy or emotional. Why? because now we are responsible for making our own decisions. There can be great pain in change for those who resist, and developing maturity can be so painful that people stop doing what they need to do in order to be successful. Let me explain Emotional maturity or intelligence can be the missing ingredient to creating success and wealth and having the life style you want. Many experts now use emotional intelligence to determine and predict success. People like Robert Kiyosaki first come to mind. He has stated many times that people who have developed higher emotional intelligence and that can handle change tend to be more successful in life than those with lower emotional maturity or intelligence even if their IQ is average or below. A good example is professional sports. We see people competing at the highest levels and for some reason some go on to be great and others explode and have meltdowns. It is truly all about the mental inner game. Friend we must understand that adversity & trails only make you stronger and more powerful and give you the experience you need to overcome challenges and becoming unstoppable. Eventually, we have to take control of our thoughts. The good news is we can improve our emotional maturity. I have included 7 tips that can help you improve and increase your emotional maturity. TIP:1 Eliminate Negative Thinking – successful readers strengthen their minds and supercharge their success through thought replacement. TIP:2 Control and eliminate Anxiety controlling the root cause of anxiety (fear) TIP:3 Identify and Express Your Anger properly – the ability to control your anger keeps you from making fast decisions that you only regret later. TIP:4 How to Cope With Pain and Hurt – accept that it’s normal to feel hurt & pain. Don’t pretend you don’t feel it. The pain is real. You have to deal with it or you will never go beyond it. TIP:5 Face Your Guilty Feelings learning how to forgive and let things go can give you peace of mind and allows you to focus on important things. TIP:6 Live With Your Failures realize that the process of failing (learning) is a stepping stone in growing & maturing into a complete person.
