In this video, Entrepreneur Network partner Brian Tracy discusses five reasons why most people never experience the wealth they desire.

To start, it's simple: "If you want to achieve true wealth, you have to be willing to put in the necessary work to get there," says Tracy.

Most people don't achieve wealth because they have low confidence, a lack of motivation, a lack of clarity, they are lazy or no one is supporting them. Confidence is key when it comes to success and wealth. Your level of self confidence is a critical factor -- the more things you try, the more likely you'll figure out what you like and want to do.

In terms of motivation, many people think someone will come along and motivate them. But, the hard truth is that no one is coming to the rescue and you must take charge of your own life.

From writing out clear goals to surrounding yourself with people that support your goals, you can get on track towards a wealthy life.
