I Will Teach You to Be Rich: The Journal: No Complicated Math. No More Procrastinating. Design Your Rich Life Today.

Product Information

We are conducting brief surveys of providers and staff involved directly in the project to collect knowledge and attitudes toward the interventions. Additionally, we asked practice administrators and/or health system leaders to complete a practice characteristic data spreadsheet at the beginning of the study. Once money isn’t a primary constraint, you’ll have the freedom to design your own Rich Life, which will almost certainly be different from the average person’s. Embrace it. This is the fun part! A good resource for couples to better understand each other's rich life and money mindset - it also makes it easier to have those awkward money conversations

Making that emotional connection with others, whether it’s your partner, family, or friend, brings an abundance into your life that money can never hope to match. All participating practices received one Omron HEM-907XL and key accessories for each full-time adult primary care provider (PCP) to facilitate adherence to the RICH LIFE protocol. The Omron HEM-907XL is one of four fully automated, commercially available BP measurement devices capable of performing AOBP. 45 It has been validated against standards published by the Association for the Advancement of Medical Instrumentation and the British Hypertension Society, 46 and it has been used in multiple clinical trials to measure study outcomes. The Omron HEM-907XL features a dial that allows users to easily toggle between a single “screening” BP measurement and a pre-programed “confirmatory” BP measurement that automatically performs and averages multiple BP readings after a timed rest period. Being patient isn’t easy in this age of instant gratification. However, with patience, you can achieve things over time that may seem impossible. Journaling my ideas and projects has taken me from being “ Missy, I need it right now or not at all,” to truly feeling the joy that more substantial, longer-term projects bring. Given the pragmatic nature of the study and extensive health system and community engagement, flexibility to adapt the protocol to respond to practice-based concerns and partner suggestions is a major strength of this study. Implementing this study would not be possible without tailoring the protocol to meet the needs and resources of health systems, patients, CMs, and CHWs. On-going engagement with participating health systems and partners resulted in study design adaptations across all of the RICH LIFE interventions including team member training and staffing models of the collaborative care team, timing of stepped-care interventions, measures included on the hypertension dashboard, the frequency and content of the HELN webinars and coaching calls, and the process for training and certifying clinical staff in the BP standardization measurement protocol. Implementing the RICH LIFE Project across five unique health systems, including FQHCs and non-FQHCs, will result in greater generalizability of study findings. Significant engagement with the different health systems resulted in a flexible protocol, with permissible adaptations, that lends itself to wider dissemination. A Rich Life is your ideal life — one where you look at your personal relationships, your finances, and your ordinary days and say, “Wow!”I realized my life had been full of riches long before I started chasing financial wealth and material gain. I realized most of the truest riches in my life actually came when I didn’t have all that much money. Chen, C., Lee, S.-y., & Stevenson, H. W. (1995). Response style and cross-cultural comparisons of rating scales among East Asian and North American students. Psychological Science, 6, 170–175. Each day, tell someone you love them, and write in your journal every time those wonderful words are said to you. 13. Vulnerability Letting down your defenses and showing your weaknesses allows others to see the full picture, not just a silhouette. Being vulnerable builds trust in relationships. This is my Achilles heel, but by consciously letting others in, initially unremarkable relationships have blossomed into great friendships.

This study includes patients who are regular attenders of primary care therefore the findings are likely only generalizable to those populations. Other approaches might be needed for populations not regularly engaged in primary care.

This study has many strengths including its cluster-randomized design, extensive engagement with community-based organizations, patients, health system leaders, providers and staff, and payers; flexibility to adapt the protocol to respond to real-world implementation challenges; implementation at five different health systems including both FQHC and non-FQHC practices; and the use of existing clinical staff whenever possible to maximize study sustainability.Ordinary riches can be stolen; real riches cannot.
