Baby steps. I don't expect to reach a billion dollars one dollar at a time. That would take forever. What I do expect to increase incrementally is my mind set. I need to prepare myself mentally to be able to receive a billion dollars and to be able to be a good steward of it. I'm responsible with the amount of money I have available to me now, but a billion dollars is a completely different level of responsibility.
Wrestling with personal and societal expectations is what I'm dealing with currently. Do I seek out another dead end, part-time, minimum wage job? I don't want to be limited to that type of employment for the rest of my life, so why should I go seeking it now? It's important to be able to meet my expenses. I know I'm taking a huge risk, hoping to support myself financially by selling poetry books and paintings. But if I want to achieve something I've never had, I need to be willing to do something I've never done.
