Final Remarks
What are your goals? What do you want to become when you grow old? When do you want to retire?
Build businesses and invest.
Do not rely on one source of income.
If fear stops you, it may be because you lack emotional or spiritual strength. Search your heart.
A reason why people fail to achieve success is because they fail to fail enough times!
