Book excerpt: Rat Race is a term used to describe a frustrating, hard-to-break financial lifestyle. It is a lifestyle that is lived by countless people, oblivious to the very nature of it, to a degree that even when called upon, vehemently deny it.To summarize the Rat Race, It involves subjecting one's self to a time-consuming job, saddling one's self with heavy mortgages/rents, bills, children, and liabilities, forcing the individual to continue busting his or her ass at that same job. The illusion that working at the same job will be better bars off alternatives.It is also a misconception that getting more money will solve financial distress, but those who subject themselves most voluntarily to the race, just spend more and more, digging themselves the same hole. "I'm not interested in money." They will say. If they aren't, then why are they thanklessly toiling their lives away and constantly bitching about their financial scarcity?It involves a variable combination of self-induced fear of poorness, a lack of choice, horrible spending habits, or the inability to adapt to the new changes in the work force taking place during the time of this definition entry.There exists many options for financial gain and exit of the rat race. Remember, the definition of insanity also entails doing the same thing over and over again, in an attempt to make things change.I always advise people to get their information from someone who has been there and done it. There is no point asking your morbidly obese doctor how to lose weight because he hasn't got the first clue. Of course this won't stop him giving you advice. This seems like an obvious point but day in day out intelligent people ask their poor friends for financial advice. They ask their co-workers what they think about escaping the 9 to 5. The advice they get back is 100% proof bull crap but offered with 100% certainty that it is correct. There are thousands of books out there about escaping the daily grind, living the life of your dreams and becoming fabulously wealthy. A great deal of them are written by people who are in an equally poor (or even worse) situation as the target audience the book is intended for. You can't be too critical of them because at least they are fighting to get where they want to go. Most people are passengers in life, white knuckling their trip down the river, entirely unaware the oars are just under the seat. So here's why you should listen very carefully to what I have to say in this book. Everything I am going to tell you to do, I have done myself. I have been poor, I have worked a 9 to 5 job that sucked my soul out my ass for 40 hours a week but I have also escaped it and become insanely wealthy as a result.If you are serious about finding your passion, living it and then selling this expertise for cash... lots of cash. Then this book is a vital first step on your journey to escaping the rat race.http://www.powerfullywealthy.com

Download or read book The Escape Artists written by Neal Bascomb and published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This “fast-paced account” of WWI airmen who escaped Germany’s most notorious POW camp is “expertly narrated” by the New York Times bestselling author (Kirkus, starred review). During World War I, Allied soldiers might avoid death only to find themselves in the abominable conditions of Germany’s many prison camps. The most infamous was Holzminden, a land-locked Alcatraz that housed the most escape-prone officers. Its commandant was a boorish tyrant named Karl Niemeyer, who swore that none should ever leave. Desperate to break out of “Hellminden”, a group of Allied prisoners hatch an audacious escape plan that requires a risky feat of engineering as well as a bevy of disguises, forged documents, and fake walls—not to mention steely resolve and total secrecy. Once beyond the watchtowers and round-the-clock patrols, they are then faced with a 150-mile dash through enemy-occupied territory toward free Holland. Drawing on never-before-seen memoirs and letters, historian Neal Bascomb “has unearthed a remarkable piece of hidden history, and told it perfectly. The story brims with adventure, suspense, daring, and heroism” (David Grann, New York Times bestselling author of Killers of the Flower Moon).

Have you reached that point in your job where you’re thinking ‘enough is enough’?
In this book, Christian Rodwell, the Founder of Escape The Rat Race, shows that there is a proven process anyone who is currently employed but looking to start their own business can follow: ‘The choices for someone wishing to exit a corporate 9-5 job and start a new business are numerous and this can easily lead to overwhelm, confusion….and over-analysing the options for so long that you end up taking no action at all. Finding enough time to fit your new business around your full time job and family commitments will also be a challenge, which is why I've dedicated an entire chapter to show you ways to overcome this.' Not everyone who wishes to quit the rat race and start a business knows exactly what business would be best suited to them initially. This book will help you to get to know yourself better, identifying your motives for wanting to sack your boss and answering the question, ‘what would I would love to do each day if money were no object?’. Christian Rodwell has been through all of these challenges himself, and has worked with over 1000 other ‘#escapees’ who are on the same journey. Christian illustrates within this book his process for helping such individuals map out their very own ‘9-5 escape plan’ - ‘The Five Step Freedom Formula™’. 'I’ll guide you through the steps you need to take before you identify what your winning strategy is for starting a business you love. At the end of this book, you’ll have all of the answers ready to complete your very own 90 Day Escape Plan, a specific and personalised personal development plan which I have put together for you.'
