Donald Trump - How to get Rich

Donald Trump - How to get Rich. 1. Be a General I am the chairman and president of The Trump Organization. I like saying that because it means a great deal to me. More and more, I see that running a business is like being a general. Your employees’ lives, to a large extent, are dependent on you and your decisions. Bad strategy can end up affecting a lot of people. If you are careful when finding employees, management becomes a lot easier. I rely on a few key people to keep me informed. They know I trust them, and they do their best to keep that trust intact. 2. Stay focused In the 1980s, I was riding high. I’d become a major player in Manhattan, developing Trump Tower, the Grand Hyatt Hotel, and many other top-tier properties. I had a yacht, a plane, a bestselling book. One magazine headline said, EVERYTHING HE TOUCHES TURNS TO GOLD, and I believed it. In the late eighties, I lost focus. I’d fly off to Europe to attend fashion shows, and I wasn’t looking at the clothing. Then, the

What you must do, when your life doesn’t flourish.... You just got some rose plant from your friends house. You hurriedly plant it around your house and hope that it will grow and bloom just like in your friends house. You can’t wait to see the beautiful red petals decorating your garden. What a breathtaking sight it was, in Tony’s house ! But something seems to be wrong with the ones you planted in your house, it is simply not blooming ! It looks sickly, and you begin to wonder if you got the right flower. “Is this not the same flower in Tony’s house”! Why is it not blooming?

Is it fertile enough and did you water it?” You see, this is a problem many of us encounter in life, and unfortunately we usually don’t handle it well and it has unfortunately consumed many talents. A lot of talented people are wasting, not because there is anything wrong with them, but simply because they are in the wrong environ

INSPIRATIONAL STORY: POSITIVE THINKING

Positive thinking. Jerry was the kind of guy you love to hate. He was always in a good mood and always had something positive to say. When someone would ask him how he was doing, he would reply, “If I were any better, I would be twins!” He was a unique manager because he had several waiters who had followed him around from restaurant to restaurant. The reason the waiters followed Jerry was because of his attitude. He was a natural motivator. If an employee was having a bad day, Jerry was there telling the employee how to look on the positive side of the situation. Seeing this style really made me curious, so one day I went up to Jerry and asked him, “I don’t get it! You can’t be a positive person all of the time. How do you do it?” Jerry replied, “Each morning I wake up and say to myself, Jerry, you have two choices today.

SETTING GOALS FOR YOUR BUSINESS.

SETTING GOALS FOR YOUR BUSINESS. Goal-setting is crucial to the success of any business, but is particularly important for entrepreneurs who can become distracted without focus. Goals direct actions, give you something to aim for, and can serve as a yardstick for measuring your business’ success. The way you approach goal-setting will determine whether you are able to attain your goals. Most people agree that goals are important, but less than five percent of people write down goals or have action plans for attaining them. Fear is most often the culprit. People don’t like to write goals down on paper (a crucial part of goal setting) because they are afraid to commit to them.

When you have set goals and attained them, the power of goal setting will compel you to set more. If you avoid goal-setting, th
