LEADERS ARE TEACHERS I 327


             True leaders inspire us to be bigger and do things we are afraid of
             doing.

             Looking back on my life, I realize that for the new me to have
             emerged, the old me had to die.

             For example:

                 When I decided to become a rich person, the poorperson inside
                 ofme had to die.

                 When I wanted to become an entrepreneur, the employee inside
                 ofme had to die.

                 When I wanted to become a thin and healthy person, the fat
                 and lazy person inside ofme had to die.

             A friend ofmine often says, "Everyone wants to go to heaven, but no
             one wants to die." Spending the past two years around Donald has
             inspired me to go beyond the old me and seek a life few people
             experience.

         3. Leaders have vision and teach others to see. I once read that
             Winston Churchill could see 200 years into the future, I also read
             that Dr. Buckminster Fuller could see a thousand years in the future,
             Whether this istrue or not, we all know people who cannot seepast
             tomorrow. We also know that Donald Trump can see tall gleaming
             skyscrapers where others see only blighted, burned-out buildings.
             That iswhat makes Donald a leader and a very rich man. He can see
             what others cannot.

             My rich dad taught me to see what others could not see. Repeating
             an important lesson from this book, my rich dad taught me to see
             the four different forms ofincome a real estate investor receives.
