I read recently few Robert Kiosaky books and I realized what his message really means for me. In most cases everything is in our minds. I'll give you an example based on my view on taxes.
I was very upset for long time with the amount taken from my salary for taxes. I thought that it is not fair and that if the taxes were not so high I could buy a more expensive car for example...Then I realized that if that was the case then the cars would be even more expensive, because more people could buy them. Then I realized, that what Robert Kiosaky writes makes perfect sense. It is not about problems, it is about learning the rules and playing them smart. Now I have to find the way to buy what I want even though I have high taxes (or lower them somehow), if they were low for everyone I would have to learn how to buy even more expensive car. So the taxes are not a problem, I just see it as a problem, because I didn't spend my energy on learning the rules, but on making excuses.
I believe it applies to most of the problems/challenges. In most cases it is only in our minds.
