The Learning Hub: The Good Habits Of Wealthy People




1. They live by the “Two-minute rule”

Two-minute rule, if a new job comes in and you think you can do it in two-minutes or less, do it. If you put in on the back-burner, it will either never get done or it will take longer to schedule and review than to just finish it straight way.

2. They remember every family member’s birthday

They prioritize friendship and family. Showing the love by remembering somebody on their birthday is good business too. 80% of wealthy people make it a habit to make birthday calls, compared to only 11% of the poor people.




3. They delimit the Internet

It's more likely they see the internet as a tool, not a source of social interaction. When it comes to dating, they prefer to choose exclusive apps for people who are at their level. Thus, to avoid meaningless connections.

4. They spend on valuable things or project

You may never get rich by being frugal, but you’re a lot less likely to go broke. Even ultra-wealthy people like Mitt Romney, who has an estimated net worth of $200 million, drives a modest car. However, he is spending money on businesses and properties that have potential for growth.


5. They build calorie conscious

Wealthy folks are big calorie counters. To wealthy people, being healthy is a means to making more money. Most of them limit alcohol consumption and hardly ever consume junk food. Because of their health conscious, they keep snacks to just 300 calories per day.

6. They buy experiences not things

Material things can excite people for a moment. Experiences on the other hand, are so much more rewarding. Truly wealthy people never wasting money on luxury and designer goods, but rather on vacations and outings with their loved ones.


7. They disclose LESS

Blurting out ever thought or ideas is not going to get you very far in the business world. Only 11.6% of the rich will blurt out what’s on their mind, compared to a whopping 69% of the poor.


Born to express, not to impress.

It is man's intelligence that makes him so often behave more stupidly than the beasts. Man is impelled to invent theories to account for what happens in the world. Unfortunately, he is not quite intelligent enough, in most cases, to find correct explanations. So that when he acts on his theories, he behaves very often like a lunatic. Thus, no animal is clever enough, when there is a drought, to imagine that the rain is being withheld by evil spirits, or as punishment for its transgressions. Therefore you never see animals going through the absurd and often horrible fooleries of magic and religion. No horse, for example would kill one of its foals to make the wind change direction. Dogs do not ritually urinate in the hope of persuading heaven to do the same and send down rain. Asses do not bray a liturgy to cloudless skies. Nor do cats attempt, by abstinence from cat's meat, to wheedle the feline spirits into benevolence. Only man behaves with such gratuitous folly. It is the pr...

THE LEARNING HUB: To laugh is to risk appearing a fool,

To laugh is to risk appearing a fool, To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To reach out to another is to risk involvement, To expose feelings is to risk exposing your true self. To place your ideas and dreams before a crowd is to risk their loss. To love is to risk not being loved in return, To live is to risk dying, To hope is to risk despair, To try is to risk failure. But risks must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing. The person who risks nothing, does nothing, has nothing, is nothing. He may avoid suffering and sorrow, But he cannot learn, feel, change, grow or live. Chained by his servitude he is a slave who has forfeited all freedom. Only a person who risks is free. ~Leo Buscaglia (Art: Photograph by Izis Bidermanas) ©THE LEARNING HUB 2023

THE LEARNING HUB: ADVICE TO ALL EMPLOYEES

1. Build a home earlier. Be it rural home or urban home. Building a house at 50 is not an achievement. Don't get used to government houses. This comfort is so dangerous. Let all your family have good time in your house. 2. Go home. Don't stick at work all the year. You are not the pillar of your department. If you drop dead today, you will be replaced immediately and operations will continue. Make your family a priority. 3. Don't chase promotions. Master your skills and be excellent at what you do. If they want to promote you, that's fine if they don't, stay positive to your personal development. 4. Avoid office or work gossip. Avoid things that tarnish your name or reputation. Don't join the bandwagon that backbites your bosses and colleagues. Stay away from negative gatherings that have only people as their agenda. 5. Don't ever compete with your bosses. You will burn your fingers. Don't compete with your colleagues, you will fry your brain. 6. Ensure ...
