Differentiating Between Producers And Consumers - Part 2

For many people, one of the most important goals in life is to be
rich because it will allow freedom of choice without being bound by
money. To do so, you have to be a producer, given the fact that only
people who provide value can get richer. To be a producer, you must
produce more than you consume and because of this, you ought to have a
producer mindset. This article will now bring you through a journey of
exploring differences between producers and consumers.To start,
consumers have a tendency to regard other people as competition for
wealth and opportunities. This is because they prefer working alone
and usually trust only themselves to deliver the best job. As a
result, they often miss out on opportunities to leverage on smarter
people to do their job for them, causing them to remain entrenched in
the trap of trading time for money and doing everything alone.In
contrast, producers usually regard other people as assets and prefer
working very closely with them to create value. This is because they
strongly believe in the fact that no one is perfect and there is
always a need to find others to supplement their weaknesses. As a
result, they are more trustful of others and this creates better
relationships with the people they work with.Consequently, everyone in
the team becomes more motivated to work, allowing everyone to achieve
prosperity by providing great value and service to others. One clear
example would be Ritz Charlton which has built a great corporate
culture to sustain the excellent service they provide to their
consumers.In addition, most producers believe that personal happiness
and prosperity are internal choices where anything is achievable
regardless of circumstances. Because of this, they remain highly
optimistic and jaunty in the face of any negativity. Also, they
constantly seek to solve problems as only by providing solutions to
problems can they become ever richer. As a result, they can control
the direction of their life and are more able to remain focused on the
goals they want to achieve.In contrast, consumers are more inclined to
regard opportunities and chances of prosperity as being beyond their
control. This is because they often escape from problems which are
platforms for them to progress. Due to this fact, their problems
remain there forever and the energy they once had becomes increasingly
sapped by it.Also, when presented with opportunities, most of them
either view it too cynically and attempt to dissuade themselves from
taking action. As a result, they cannot provide enough value to people
and thus control less resources than producers.Moreover, consumers
believe that people are used to increase the money and material wealth
they possess. Because of this, they tend to exploit their employees by
underpaying but overloading them, causing unhappiness and straining
relationships. Due to this excessive emphasis on money, these
consumers tend to sacrifice many important stuff in life and incur
very huge opportunity costs. As a result, even if they are rich, most
usually are not happy.In contrast, producers instead use their money
and material wealth to serve and bless other people. This is because
they believe that giving is more important than taking. As a result,
they provide more value to this world and remain happy knowing that
they have changed lives for the better. Here, one clear example would
be Mother Teresa who contributed much value to this world.Despite the
fact that she was from an affluent family background, she nevertheless
believed more in serving people and adding value to their lives
instead of just donating money. This made her a great producer and
although she lived a simple life, she was happy because she was free
to do what she wanted.In conclusion, after covering 2 articles
highlighting the differences, I believe readers now have a better
understanding about how to cultivate a producer mindset. Sometimes,
wealth is not only external because material stuff can only satisfy
you for a moment. Instead, true wealth should also involve innate
aspects as this will make you happy for you know that the value you
created has benefited the world.
