People who are poor are always looking for the problems instead of the solutions. They end up blaming their environment, circumstances, jobs, weather, government, and will make an extensive list of excuses as to why they cannot be successful.
Rich people understand that everything happens for a reason. Rather than letting life happen to them, they take direct action and make big things happen. They put aside all the excuses and eradicate their blame lists because they have to do what must be done.
Rich people see opportunities. Poor people see obstacles. Rich people see potential growth. Poor people see potential loss. Rich people focus on rewards. Poor focus on the risks.
I would say this is fairly accurate. I wouldn't say that poor people are always looking for problems. I would say that they always see problems in everything. For some reason they don't try to fix them. People that are self-made rich people see the problems, but they find solutions. If they don't like the way something is, they change it. The take control of their own life. Poor people usually think that somebody else should do something for them. They get angry that nobody is helping.
