Being an employee and having a steady income every month, obviously can support your life needs.
Furthermore, have you ever thought, what should I do to become a rich person? What kind of hard work do you have to do, achieve what position, and so on?
If you want to be rich, it turns out that there are habits that you need to do. Author Thomas C. Corley has researched for five years the habits of millionaires and documented them in the book 'Change Your Habit, Change Your Life.'
Don't Just Rely on One Source of Income
According to Corley, the number one habit of the rich is not to depend on a single source of income.
For the millionaires who got rich on their own, if you want to make a lot of money, you need to have more than one source of income.
"You don't get rich without having more than one source of income," says Grant Cardone, a property entrepreneur who was in debt before becoming a billionaire.
"About 65% (of the rich) have at least three income streams that they created before making their first million dollars," Corley said.
Apart from getting a salary from their main job, they can also get additional money from other businesses, such as property rental, side jobs, or part-time jobs.
Have You Got A Side Business Too?
According to new research from hiring tools company Jobvite, only about 25% of employees have other sources of income, outside of their main job.
Relying on only one source of income is considered to be detrimental to middle-class workers. According to billionaire Steve Siebold, what separates the rich from the average person is their focus on earning.
"Most people only focus on coupons in order to live frugally so they miss out on great opportunities (of other sources of income)," he wrote in the book 'How Rich People Think.'
Even so, continued Siebold, this advice does not mean you should ignore a frugal living strategy. But if you want to be rich, you have to focus more on adding sources of income.
How are you, ready to find additional sources of income?
