Richest Man in Babylon: The End


Listen Later

Shoremates,

Welcome to the end of our first book.

Chapter 10 is entitled the clay tablets from Babylon, and goes over the method which Dabasir used to get out of debt.

Tablet 1: states his purpose and plan
Tablet 2: states when he'll pay and how much
Tablets 3-5: how his debt pay off journey went

Chapter 11 is entitled the luckiest man in Babylon, and speaks of how Sharru Nada got out of slavery due to the help of Arad Gula.  Arad's grandson, Hadan, was at Sharru's side and he was debating how to convey how important work was to the soul and to future prosperity. 

Action Steps for today:

  1. Write down a list of all debts that you owe, along with the monthly payments.
  2. Rework your budget so that 10% is for you to keep, 20% pays off debts, and 70% pays for your lifestyle.  If you dont have enough, consider ways to make more money (get more hours at work, side hustles) or reduce your expenditures. 
  3. What are your thoughts on work? Do you think it is below you, or do you consider it to be your friend? Why?
  4. Think about a time you shirked in your work or had a bitter attitude.  What was the result?  What was the result when you worked hard with a good attitude?
  5. Reward Yourself.  You just finished the timeless classic, the richest man in babylon. 

Always Remember, You've got this!
