What keeps people from becoming rich is their desire for instantgratifications. Human beings are inherently impatient and willalways want to enjoy now rather than wait for future benefits.It is precisely this reason that they don't save enough, they don'tinvest enough, and hence, they suffer when retirement comes or whenemergency arises.There are only two ways to use your money. You can either spend itor invest it. By investing, I'm not just referring to putting yourmoney in investment instruments like stocks, currencies, or bonds.Spending $3,000 on a solid seminar/workshop is considered a form ofinvestment. I call it self-investment i.e. invest in your biggestasset - your mind. In fact, self-investment is the first form ofinvestment you should be making before anything else.Millionaires understand this and embrace the practice of 'delayedgratifications'. They have the patience to wait for greaterabundance in the future. And they invest a lot more than they spend.
