While most people do want to get rich, a lot of them don’t understand the meaning of being wealthy. Rich mindsets focus on the rewards. Poor mindsets focus on the risks. World seems like a huge ball full of endless opportunities to get rich but still millions, if not billions, of people are stuck in poverty. While some cases may be argued as sheer bad luck or misfortune, most people are simply not becoming rich because of various factors that have been highlighted below.

Most people don’t become rich quick because of the failure to balance the paradoxical process that is full of contradictions, requiring a strategic balance of the various elements.

  1. They never plan

Without a plan, and without sticking to the plan, becoming rich becomes a moving target or a wild goose chase. Most people do not become rich quick because they just lack the plan to take them there. Whereas plans can be subjected to turbulence, they provide goals and contingent approaches of achieving these goals or salvaging the entire venture if things become unbearable. Without a plan, and without goals, nothing can ever be accomplished, and you will keep on starting all over again every other time.

  1. They procrastinate

The best time to start acting on your plans is now. Most people, however, postpone their plans until it all remains as a thought that can never be actualized.
