When it comes to being a successful entrepreneur and millionaire your biggest enemy is yourself.

Some people actually succeed very well to the point where they are just about to achieve greater success and then, without ever knowing it, they sabotage their own success, to prevent having to carry what they perceive as being too great a responsibility.
It sounds crazy, but many people are afraid of success.
They are afraid of the unknown, afraid of handling the risk, afraid of moving out either the comfort zone then this terrified the responsibility that success will bring.
Of course, some people are simply lazy and consequently are fearful of the input that will be required when they do finally achieve great financial success.
They are not willing to do what it takes and to deliver the input that their achievements will demand of them.
Sometimes people will simply be afraid of what other people will think of them if they become successful and wealthy.
Sometimes they are afraid of the demands that other people will place on them or the expectations it will create in their relatives and friends.
People are afraid to deal with conflict situations.
