A millionaire views the day differently. If you have ever examined someone successful, they are using their time to the maximum capacity. Instead of looking for when they could have down time, they are meticulously planning how to optimize their calendar to achieve their goals. Rest looks different.\u00a0 Rest only occurs when it is planned accordingly. It is crucial to avoid spontaneous and time consuming breaks. This might sound draining but many take joy in pushing themselves. Drive keeps them going. The ideas of success and what they could achieve consume their minds with excitement. The road to becoming a millionaire can be one of difficulty, but it can also be one of great achievement.<\/p>\n<p>This is demonstrated throughout the movie <em>The Pursuit of Happyness\u00a0<\/em>featuring Will Smith. Will Smith plays the role of Chris, a salesman with a young child. Chris is striving to get hired at Dean Witter. In order to secure his position, he is working to bring in the most sales within six months. The method of sales he is told to use is that of cold calling. The idea is to work from the bottom to the top of the call sheet within a day. It starts with the lowest position and ends with the CEO. Unfortunately, he has to complete in six hours what others do in nine. This is because he needs and wants to be there for his son. In order to optimize his calendar, he doesn&#8217;t set down the phone between calls. This saves him 8 minutes. He also doesn&#8217;t drink water in order to avoid going to the bathroom. Christ works without complaint consistently attempting to win the approval of his bosses, who ask way too many favors. He doesn&#8217;t give up, instead he works harder. This movie demonstrates the millionaire mindset I was previously describing extremely well. In order to live a life different than an everyday person, you must work harder than an everyday person.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What differentiates a millionaire from an everyday person?
