THERE IS MONEY INSIDE THAT PROBLEM BY SAM ADEYEMI

I want to share a very interesting series with you on how to become rich by simply solving problems. Robert Allen, a renowned author said in his book, Multiple Streams of Income that every challenge you face has a cash value. On the surface, that looks like a contradictory statement, but it is the truth.

In fact, another author says that anywhere you see problems just substitute it for cash. This is what both authors mean. It is only by solving problems that you can become wealthy.

The more significant problems you solve, the more money you have. So when you run away from problems or allow them to overwhelm you, you are by implication running away from money.

There was a time things were very tough at Daystar, the church I lead. We were not able to pay for the space we were using for Sunday service. In fact, there was a time the owner locked us out because we could not pay. Congregants were waiting outside so we had to look for another place.


The church was not growing after application of many church growth principles. I had to go on a fast specifically to ask God to increase the crowd so that our finances could improve. But God gave me a different agenda. He said I should not look at the money we could make from the crowd; rather I should look at the problems they had and proffer solutions to them. Then I would see my desired results.

That was exactly what I did. I went in search of information that could transform the people and I gave it to them consistently for about three years. That marked the beginning of the explosive growth we have continued to witness in the church.


That is the key!

Position yourself as a problem solver and you will never be poor.
