One Decision Separates the Wealthy From the Non-Wealthy
“Courage can be developed. But it cannot be nurtured in an environment that eliminates all risks, all difficulty, all dangers. It takes considerable courage to work in an environment in which one is compensated according to one’s performance. Most affluent people have courage. What evidence supports this statement? Most affluent people in America are either business owners or employees who are paid on an incentive basis.” — Dr. Thomas Stanley
The problem with most people’s lives is that they are being shielded from the consequences of their behavior. There’s little to no accountability.
The fastest way to make success inevitable in your life is to only do work that is incentive-based. Only do that which you are rewarded and punished for the quality of your work. Everything you do needs to matter to the outcomes, consequences, and results you get in life.
So what is the decision?
The decision is to take complete ownership of every decision in your life. And how you do that is by only doing things in which you are compensated based on performance.
This goes completely against the norms in society. It goes against public education — which shields people from progressing at their own rates. It goes against most job structures, wherein a person is paid an hourly rate or salary.
If you want to make dramatic strides forward, you must only work in environments where the consequences of your actions are immediate and REAL. You need to be demanded by your situation to come up with a result.
This article will show you how:
Are You A Part Of The “Results Economy”?
Founder of the exclusive entrepreneurial coaching platform, Strategic Coach, Dan Sullivan distinguishes between those who are in the “Time-and-Effort Economy” with those who are in the “Results Economy.”
If you’re in the time and effort economy, you are focused on being busy. You actually believe the amount of time and energy you put into something merits praise. Those who are focused on being “busy” are protected in some way from the consequences of their actions.
They’re not being forced by necessity to come up with a solution. Chances are, they are an employee. They are part of a bureaucracy. And they’re striving to follow rules rather than break them.
Conversely, when you are in the results economy, you are only focused on achieving a specific result. You are focused on results because if you don’t get the result, there will be consequences to pay — for you and others.
You’re not worried about your reputation. You’re not worried about following the rules of ridiculous systems which are seeking to make you their slave anyways.
Dr. Thomas Stanley found in his research that those who are paid based on RESULTS are most courageous and also the most wealthy.
You actually have to take risks.
You can’t be sheltered from the consequences of your behavior.

Foreign Countries Keep Buying Gold. Just Not In The US
Notes From the Fild By James Hickman (Simon Black / Sovereign Man) October 26, 2026
One of the most humiliating episodes in Chinese history came in April 1895 after China lost the Sino-Japanese war. Japanese negotiators forced their Chinese counterparts to pay out the nose— one of the heaviest war indemnities of all time; it totaled 38 million British pounds, roughly three times what the Japanese government spent in a year. Today that would be roughly $2.2 TRILLION.

The Biggest Financial Mess in Decades
As Good As Gold Australia: 10-25-2026
Everywhere we look, the economic warning lights are flashing red. From civil unrest and a looming €1 trillion bailout crisis in Europe, to Japan preparing to dump $1.4 trillion in U.S. Treasury holdings, the era of central bank intervention is losing control.
Even U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent recently admitted, "The house doesn't win every hand." Meanwhile, Wall Street is sitting on a $1.5 trillion margin lending timebomb, and everyday investors are waking up to a startling reality: the 60-year "boom" in real estate is a fiat currency illusion.
