I’m curious. Have you ever heard of people who call themselves “self-made”? For example, I’m a self-made millionaire….

Honestly, I don’t believe that statement is true at all. I mean, is there such thing as that you alone made yourself famous/rich/successful/___________ (fill in the blank)? For every person that ‘made it’ there are actually tons of people around this person supporting him/her.

Let me prove to you:

People who are successful in business, usually have a team of people who are working with or for them. They don’t do everything themselves.

If you are very rich, its because someone has probably mentored you before, or shared successful principles to your very soul.

Before you ever think you are ‘self made’, I hope you consider 3 these 3 groups of people who are rooting for your success…

1. People who are infront of you (your mentors or people who have imparted wisdom to you)

2. People beside you (your spouse, partners or colleagues)

3. People who are behind you (your staff)

There’s a saying:

If you want to go fast, go alone
If you want to go far, go together

Hope you remember that self-made people don’t exist, only successful people with strong teams do. Therefore, build great teams and you will be great too!
