In my Rich Habits Study, one of the commonalities among the self-made rich was that they found a spouse who was a true partner in the pursuit of a successful life.
In searching for the right life partner, make sure you and your significant other are on the same page:
- Similar Beliefs
- Similar Values (Life Priorities)
- Similar Money Habits
- Similar Exercise Habits
- Similar Smart Money Habits
- Similar Spending Habits
- Similar Savings Habits
- Similar Risk Tolerance Around Money/Investing
- Similar Attitude Towards Family
- Similar Dreams/Goals
- Similar Desires or Wants
- Shared Vision of Your Future Life
- Similar Positive Outlook
- Common Hard Work Ethic
- Shared Expectations of Each Other
- Similar Attitude Towards Importance of Honesty/Integrity
- Humility
- Similar Attitude About the Importance of Education
- Similar Attitude About Trust and Fidelity
- Shared Passion for Recreational Activities
- Common Interests/Hobbies
- Common Morals
- Shared Financial Goals
- Shared Family Goals
- Shared Lifestyle/Standard of Living Goals
Success, wealth, good health and happiness are virtually impossible when the values, habits, mindset, temperament and beliefs of your significant other are not in alignment with yours. Never settle. Find a life partner who is in alignment with you.
