Small people afraid to have a big dream,
Medium people dreams what they expect they can achieve,
Big people dreams what seems impossible to achieve.
For small people, they thought they have a big dream. But in reality, their dreams are too small. Some people have very little dream or no dream at all because they don't have the self confidence to succeed. They thought they have nothing to achieve in their dreams. They thought everyone who were successful were born or nurtured in a perfect condition. They thought those who were successful depend entirely on the special connection they have with higher ranking people. They thought... well, they fail to progress or to grow themselves not because what they don't have. Instead, their thinking process has many flaws which make it almost impossible for them to identify their strength and begin with what they have.
This kind of people should invest in themselves first before they can progress. They should read more books, attend more seminars and ask from successful people. Once they realize that money is not the most important thing in property investment, they can join the bandwagon.
Medium or Most people are too lazy to dream big. They are too comfortable with what they have. They never thought their dreams are actually small for the kind of people who have a good upbringing, good family to fall to, good education background and etc.. They have been spoon fed by their families all their lives. In many cases, they were too protected by their families. Some of them may have never face any hardship. Some of them may never have been physically punished. It is the safest and most comfortable life they taught they can easily achieve. FFacing hardship, difficulties or failures in early life are what make us robust in the future. Most of them prefer to have small dreams because those are something easily achieved based on their current capability. They don't realize that their capability can be enhanced through time and experience. Without these awareness, they will never seek any way to improve themselves.
Many of them will gossip around when they saw successful people come to prominent. Yet, they don't realize that some of these successful people came from less unfortunate background (less education, less family financial background, less political connection etc.). But their determination shows what can be achieved when you have a big dream. By harnessing what they have, they managed to expand their wealth hundred times more than other people expectation. I have seen a few successful people who are my close friends.
People thought big people can afford to dream big because they have everything. Big people do not necessarily start from a big footing. Some of them are from poor family background, lesser educated or without any political connection or many disadvantages unknown to us. Although some of them start small, they like to dream something seem out of reach or impossible. By dreaming big, the potential rewards are bigger with endless possibilities which automatically motivated them to pursue for the dreams.
Some people have the opportunity to learn the background of the successful people. But, very little people have the opportunity to watch themselves these people turning the table from disadvantages to advantages. The most difficult part in achieving something is learning the process to get the objective. The most difficult part to begin is to get out from your comfort zone. Once you really mastered the process, it can easily be duplicated in many areas, in achieving other objectives, and gradually increase the ability to learn. This is what long life learning is about.
To succeed in property investment, we need the right kind of thinking based on sound philosophy. We must dare to dream big. It is not enough to just have huge capital to be very successful in property investment. If you depend too much on your capital to begin or grow your property investment, you are just a normal property investor. You may even loose if you depend too much on your capital alone. You should dreams the impossible to achieve, to explore what many people ignore, to identify endless possibilities and much more. Like playing any sport at world level, your state of mind is what separate you from the rest.
