Take a close look at your life right now and ask yourself this important question:
"Am I filling buckets or building a pipeline?"
What you ask am I talking about you ask?
Think of it this way. Say you discovered oil on your property. Wow you are rich right? Not yet. You have to move that oil so it can be sold and in fact let’s say you have to move it 5 miles from where you are at.
Which way is fastest?
1. Filling up buckets of oil and carrying it 5 miles
2. Building a pipeline so the oil can flow the 5 miles
Of course you say #2 is the fastest right?
Wrong!
It will be the fastest once you get the pipeline built but that is going to take some time right? The easiest way is to fill up buckets and carry or drive them and them come back and do it again and again and again.
After a while of carrying bucket after bucket that pipeline idea sure sounds like a good idea!
After you get the pipeline built, that oil will continue to flow day in and an day out, no matter where you are in the world. Sure you may have to do a little maintenance from time to time but there is no arguing it is the best way to go.
...but it's not the easiest.
So let’s take this example and talk about activities in your financial and business life that this can be applied to.
Examples Of Filling Up Buckets
- Working a job where you trade time for money If you stop working, you run out of money. If you want more money you have to work more (you have to carry more buckets)
- Running a traditional business Let’s say you own a franchise or other business that requires a lot of employees and overhead. Yes you are the boss but you are married to that business and it requires to you fill up a lot of buckets to keep things running. Yes you can get employees to fill and carry buckets that's true. But talk to most business owners and they will tell you that their traditional business owns them.
- Running an Internet Marketing business where you focus on product launches Ok - are you ready for the dirty little secret that most Internet Marketers won't tell you? Most online marketers focus on product launches or promotions that are one time deals. They are constantly running from promotion to promotion to stay ahead and make it work for them. They are in essence filling buckets and sometimes they run out of buckets or their buckets disappear over night...Google Slaps, Facebook changes, technology changes, etc.
- Investing in a retirement plan or long term investment strategy Most people never save any money or not enough. Start investing a small percentage of your income each month and over time you will build a "Pipeline" of income that grows and grows.
- Investing in yourself and others Taking the time to work on your self-development and helping others do the same. When people feel better about themselves, they want to accomplish more in their life and this generally leads to more financial prosperity. This is a pipeline you should invest in.
- Starting a home or online business that focuses on continuity, passive/residual/leveraged income Starting your own home business that has already been proven to create long term income that can grow each month with the power of leverage. It's a great feeling to wake up in the morning and see that your business made money from work that you did months and even years ago. It's an even better feeling to see what leverage can do for you. One day you will wake up after your hard efforts and see thousands and thousands of others just like you that are working for the same cause...and you are getting a small piece from everyone of them. All those small pieces can had up to be HUGE. That is the ultimate pipeline!
Yes!
Of course if you follow a mentor and look to others who have already done it, it is much easier.
Is building a pipeline worth it?
I guess you have to answer that question yourself!
For me the answer is pretty easy!
