Planning for 3 Million Dollars
Here’s what can happen late at night with a calculator, a stream of consciousness and the thought of making (not necessarily manifesting) $3 million in one year …
Would you rather come up with three million $1.00 ideas or three $1,000,000.00 ideas?
Truth: I’m afraid of one million dollar ideas.
Truth: I am not afraid of one dollar ideas.
Why?
I’m afraid of one million dollars ideas because I don’t yet have the knowledge of how to implement them. I can barely conceive what one million dollars equals. I need to learn to visualize it in terms I can understand at this point in my development. I don’t know how much money it would cost to create a one million dollar idea.
I’m not afraid of one dollar ideas because they are plentiful and easy. No real effort or cost needed.
But … there are only 8,760 hours in a year. That’s 525,600 minutes. That means I’d have to repeat the one dollar idea almost six times each minute.
Truth: I am not afraid of one hundred dollar ideas.
Truth: I get a little nervous about one thousand dollar ideas.
One hundred dollar ideas are very doable. I can create a $100 piece of art with materials I already have on hand. I could write an article or some sponsored blog posts on an easily created free blog. I can sell $100 worth of stuff on eBay.
I’m nervous about one thousand dollar ideas because I don’t give my abilities enough credit. This is a product of my scarcity mindset. There are few things I could create that I can justify paying $1,000 for, so it’s hard for me to imagine someone else willing to do so.
But … with 8,760 hours in a year, I’d have to implement 3.5 one hundred dollar ideas each hour to make $3 million. If I overcame my fear of one thousand dollar ideas, I’d only need to implement 3,000 ideas - or one about every three hours.
Truth: Ten thousand dollar ideas spread across the year don’t really frighten me.
Truth: One-hundred thousand dollar ideas spread across the year aren’t so much frightening as just harder to conceive. What do I have to offer that is $100,000 in 12 months?
But … I would need to implement one $10,000 idea every 29 hours to make $3 million. I would only need to implement one $100,000 idea every 292 hours to make $3 million - that’s one about every 12 days.
To break it down: $3,000,000 =
$1 ideas: 3,000,000
$100 ideas: 30,000
$500 ideas: 6,000
$1,000 ideas: 3,000
$2,000 ideas: 1,500
$5,000 ideas: 600
$7,500 ideas: 400
$10,000 ideas: 300
$25,000 ideas: 120
$50,000 ideas: 60
$100,000 ideas: 30
$500,000 ideas: 6
$1,000,000 ideas: 3
$3,000,000 ideas: 1
Clearly, the $3,000,000 idea is the way to go unless you get bored easily. If so, the $500,000 ideas would keep you occupied a bit longer.
