I have to admit I was surprised by his answer.

Let me explain.

Yesterday I was reading one of my favorite magazines, Business 2.0, and there was a story I wanted to read on page 88.

But I didn't go right there, I started at page 1 and, by the time I got to page 88, I was ready for some great success tips.

And I got them.

2 things specifically stood out in my mind to share with you.

They had an interview with Jim Clark.

Jim Clark became a billionaire in the 'internet age.'

He was involved in starting Netscape, Silicon Graphics, and dozens of start up companies.

This guy knows a ton about the MINDSET you need to succeed and increase your in.come.

I want to share with you 1 question and 1 answer from the interview because it can help you.

Question: "What Traits Should Every Good Entrepreneur Possess?"

Answer: Discontent and anxiety. Most entrepreneurs are not content with the way things are. But if they're smart, they're extremely anxious too. Most ideas are going to happen whether you do them or someone else does.

It's the person who feels most anxious about it and builds the prototype who is likely to win.

The best entrepreneurs tend to move quickly and efficiently. They don't waste a lot of time making decisions.

I want to touch on an important point Jim is making because I rarely hear anyone else say it but myself.

A lot of people teach you to 'always be content'. It's like you can sit on top of a mountain, chant, say a few sentences, then your life changes and you become a millionaire. To me, it's ridiculous.

I've never seen it work.

Is a great athlete 'content' before a game or HUNGRY to win?

Is a great businessperson 'content' before a big deal or HUNGRY to win?

I believe in what Robert Collier, a well known author years ago, called 'The Gospel of Discontent.'

Look at the REALITY of your life, what are you not happy with?

Seriously, what area of your life are you not happy with?

You need to use this discontent, this anger, and harness it in positive ways.

Discontent, anxiety, and anger are some of the most powerful motivations you can have.

It's time to use them if you're not happy with where you are right now.

Does it make sense?

Michael Jordan ALWAYS used to find something that could get him angry before a game because he KNEW he would play his best.

Listen, I'm not saying walk around angry, but what I am sharing with you is a major secret of some of the most successful people in the world.

Jim Clark has used it to become a billionaire.

Get out there in the game of life; sure we all take some bruises, but you can perservere and create a MASTERPIECE called your life.

There are so many ways to harness your energy, to harness your passion and to build something great.

Think about this.

The Gospel of Discontent. Even write it down.

I used to be afraid to harness the powerful energy I had inside myself and then I realized I was just letting myself live beneath my potential.

Find an area of discontent and take action. Let your power rise and shine like a beautiful summer day.

You were born to live an extraordinary life, do extraordinary things, and help an extraordinary amount of people.

Are you ready to take your life to the next level today?

You in?

Talk to you soon.
