Well, you will find that in ANY industry, there will be a minority who will be making plenty of money, while the majority will be struggling to survive.
You hear stories of insurance agents earning $600,000 to $1 million a year (many of them are my personal friends). Again, this is the minority. The majority will be just making enough to get by.

Many people see me in the children’s education business making millions and think that it’s a lucrative business. Again, what they don’t know is that I am in the minority. The majority of businesses in education are struggling to survive.
So my answer to that question is that you can become a millionaire in ANY INDUSTRY, only if you are one of the best! If you are not one of the best, you will never become rich in ANY industry.

You CAN become a millionaire in insurance, property, stock investing, children’s education, pest-control, retail, food or Internet marketing ONLY when you are one of the best. So, how do you become the best in the market?
The answer is by being totally, absolutely one hundred percent committed towards your particular career or business. People become the best at what they do only because they eat, sleep, breathe, talk and think their business eighteen hours a day (sometimes, they even dream about it as they sleep).

In other words, they are obsessed with doing what they do and are constantly finding ways to do it better. And the only way you can become totally obsessed and committed towards something is when you have a love and passion for it!
All successful individuals have one thing in common. They love what they do. And because they have such an intense passion for their particular career or business, they do not distinguish work from play.
Their work is their play and vice versa. As a result, they spend every single day and every waking hour working (to them it’s not work), and that is why they become so good at it that they become market leaders and experts.

The reason why I dare say that I am one of the best motivational speakers around and was able to build the leading personal development training company is because I am totally obsessed with what I do.
I love writing, developing curriculum and most of all, I love training and empowering people. It gives me such a great feeling to see people change their lives and achieving success with what I have taught them.

I am so obsessed with what I do that even during Holidays like Chinese New Year, after I spend the daytime with my family visiting, at nigh, when they are in bed, I am in my study room writing speeches, developing curriculum and analyzing investments. I do it till 2am on average.
All my friends think I am nuts for being a workaholic who works 19-hours a day and 365 days a year. What people don’t realize is that to me, this is not work, it’s fun! It is because of my obsession and total focus on what I do that has allowed me to overtake all my competitors to become the best in my industry.

Every successful millionaire I know has a love and obsession for what they do. One of my friends, Thomas Fernandez who made his fortune in the pest control business (Pest Busters) has a passion for finding new ways to kill pests.
He is constantly obsessed with talking about cockroaches, bees, ants and rats. Another guy I know, Kenny Yap has an intense passion for fish. He thinks and talks about fish all the time. This guy is really mad about fish.

In fact, whenever he gives speeches on life and business, he uses fish as a metaphor. He even calls himself ‘Kenny the fish’. His love for what he does has been the key driving force that has allowed him to build one of the largest ornamental fish companies in the world, Qian Hu Corporation.
Similarly, Tiger Woods is the best golfer in the world because he is obsessed with golf. It is his intense passion for the game that gets him to hit hundreds of balls under the hot sun every single day till he gets it perfect!
It is his passion that gets him to continue competing in tournaments despite already having amassed a personal fortune of US$575 million. It is not the money that motivates him. It has always been the love for the game and the love of competing.
Have you ever wondered why Bill Gates, the richest man in the world who is worth US$46 billion still works 18-hour days, every single day? Why doesn’t he just sit back and relax on the beach? The reason is because like all millionaires, what drives him is never really the money per se; it is the love of being at the forefront of technology.
It was his obsession of ‘putting a computer in every home running Microsoft software’ that made him the best in the field. Similarly, Donald Trump loves doing deals, Michael Jordan loves basketball and Steven Spielberg loves making movies. If you read all their biographies, you will find that none of them got into their industries because they thought it was lucrative.

They got in because it was what they loved to do. They love to do it so much that they would even do it for free. This is why although they never have to work for money ever again, they keep working harder and harder. It is because it was never work in the first place.

Many people have the belief that millionaires are people who are just naturally more motivated, disciplined and focused. The truth is that when anyone does something he or she loves, the motivation, focus and discipline always comes naturally.
If you find that you lack the motivation and discipline to become successful in what you do, the reason is very obvious. It is not your passion! Haven’t you noticed that whenever you are doing what you love, the energy never stops? It’s like no matter how tired you are, you will always find the energy to do what you love.

Well, this is the secret that will lead to your success and wealth! You have to find something you are extremely passionate about and build your career or business around it!
When you do, you will find that you will be naturally focused, committed and energized to work at it. When you give your best to whatever you are crazy about, you will become the best!
