Are You a Hammer or Nail?

If you're under 40, there's this one lesson that will teach you a lot about making money in life. You're either the hammer or you're the nail. Hammers make things happen. They drive home the point. They aren't afraid to swing hard, take calculated risks, make an impact. They don't wait for things to happen, they make them happen. Or you're the nail. They get pounded. They hold things in place, but only because someone else decided where they should be. Nails wait for instructions. They stay put. They keep their heads down, and they hope they don't get bent out of shape. Nails might hold things together, but hammer's built the house so no one remembers the nails. They remember who hammered them in. Hammers make money. Nails take orders. You know which one you want to be.
