Inc.com passed on some solid advice they received from people who want to become millionaires at a young age. They pulled together 11 tips of advice from people who became millionaires at a young age, as well as people who studied hundreds of self-made millionaires.
They may not have had internet-based businesses in mind, but these tips apply across the board.
I’ve got a ways to go to hit my millionaire status, but a number of these were already on my list.
- Increase your income in increments. Earning passive income was on the list . . . and is my business model. How about yours?
- Develop multiple streams of income. Straight out of Robert Kiyosaki’s book—The Cash Flow Quadrant. “… the more income streams you can create in life, the more secure will your financial house be.”
- “…Every one of them (folks with million dollar fortunes) had the habit of reaching decisions promptly”
- Don’t show off. Show up. Save more and spend less.
- Invest in your future. Every day, I spend time reading and taking in mentor information through videos, books, and blogs.
- Rich people are typically self-employed and determine the size of their own paycheck. “While the world-class continue starting businesses and building fortunes, average people settle for steady paychecks and miss out on the opportunity to accumulate great wealth.”
- “If you want to make more money, you have to have a clear goal and then a specific plan for how to achieve that goal.”
- Hang out with people you admire. “We become like the people we associate with.”
Whether you are young . . . and have the millionaire goal . . . these are solid habits to follow for success.
Or if you have a few years on you, like me, but you are “still in the game”, this article is an excellent read.
How do you match up with this list? Which habits are you implementing? Which are you starting?

Quick post of information today! Many things to get to on my To Do list! And that’s what I’m writing about.
I have been looking for a solution to the scraps of paper on my desk and my scattered “To Do List’.
Sound familiar?
I used TaskWise for some time, but the company disintegrated before my eyes. The site is still up (and they may still be charging). But it doesn’t work and the company doesn’t respond for requests for assistance. Buyer Beware!
Next, I turned to downloading the Day Timer app on iTunes. The idea was to sync up my Outlook Tasks with my iPhone. It looked like it might work. And the first level, customer support was pretty good and responsive through email.
However, Day Timers’ second level support drops off pretty significantly. Never did hear back from Level Two, after 2-3 emails. Again, buyer beware.
Then I tried some “work arounds”. But ultimately, I didn’t think that Outlook Tasks had the flexibility I wanted.
Then I stumbled on Wunderlist. I strongly encourage you to check it out.
Desktop based, with apps for most smart phones.
It allows seamless syncing back and forth between your smart phone and your desk top.
Wunderlist provides some pretty helpful sorting features, so you can pull out your priority “To Dos”.
And it allows you to set up multiple lists. I have one for Personal, and others for the various businesses/projects I’m running.
There are some features that would be nice. Like, the window is too big on the computer screen–it would be nice to be able to resize it much smaller than the program allows.
It does most everything I need it to do. And the price is right–free!
Pick it up . . . and get yourself organized!
