Power of Persistence

Some satellites are able to stay in orbit for years because they exert small amounts of force over long periods of time. Likewise, small drips of water can drill holes in the hardest rock over millenia.

The same law applies to value. Exerting small amounts of force is doable. Three or four visits to a store to return items or replace them until you're satisfied doesn't require momentous efforts. However, the results can mean thousands in savings. Apply this smal effort over a lifetime and you're talking about considerable wealth.

Just ask yourself what small thing you did today to accumulate wealth and bring more value into your life. You don't have to find the deal of the century to be a mogul by the end of the century.
