The real secret to becoming wealthy and successful is merely to amend the way you think … to literally encode yourself with a different mindset inside.
To basically THINK differently from how you do now … to THINK like a Millionaire. In fact, if you don’t think like a millionaire, I can tell you now, you’ll never become one.
I know that may seem ludicrously simple but please don’t dismiss what I am about to tell you because it is so true.
It is exactly why I am a Multi-Millionaire…
When I turned 40, I basically just decided to become wealthy. I changed my thoughts entirely … I began THINKING and really BEHAVING like a Millionaire. And from that … as with that little Chinese woman … amazingly EVERYTHING else just fell into place.
The truth is, if I didn’t have these thoughts … if I hadn’t literally RE-PROGRAMMED myself … I’d still be working in some hum-drum 9-5 job with NOTHING to really look forward to other than a tiny pension at the end of it all.
You must understand that if you want to truly live the carefree existence … if you honestly want to be financially free for the rest of your life … to live where you want … drive the car of your choice … go on the holidays you want … and never have to worry about money ever again.
If you want to make your living with a cash on demand online business for example where you can spend most of your time sailing around the Caribbean…
Well you need to start RAISING your expectations … you’ve got to RE-PROGRAM your thoughts…
Now I know what that may sound like to you but the truth is, you’ll get nowhere if you don’t do this.
Look at it this way, your current belief system has got you exactly where you are right now. If that’s not where you’d ideally like to be, then you have to alter your thoughts … alter what you believe you can do.
There’s a great analogy of this which perfectly illustrates the point I’m trying to make. And forgive me if you’ve heard it before, but please read it through.
Here it is…
Do you know if you were to put fleas into a jar and place a lid on top they will jump up and down for hours getting very agitated as they try to escape the jar.
All the time jumping and banging against the lid of course. However, what’s very interesting is that after a while, in a study…
It was found that if you remove the lid a few days later something VERY odd happens…
The fleas still continue to jump … after all, they are fleas and that’s what fleas do … BUT they now ONLY jump as high as the height they reached when the lid was on the jar!
And that’s despite the fact that physically they could jump hundreds of times higher and escape their glass prison whenever they wanted.
They however remain permanently trapped because they don’t ‘THINK’ they can escape anymore … their BELIEF SYSTEM has been altered. If you like, they have conditioned themselves to fail. The fact that they are stuck has nothing to do with reality.
Well true they may be just fleas, but its EXACTLY the same for us too…
If you DON’T believe you will succeed … you WON’T. The fact that your life is currently NOT the one you’d ideally want is because you have conditioned yourself to fail … you have the belief system, thoughts and behaviour patterns of failure.
I don’t mean to be harsh here, you may indeed be successful in some way, but if its NOT the life you really want, then for you it is a failure. Sorry, but being honest with ourselves is the first step to change.
Indeed, we see it all the time. People will only aspire to climb as high as they have been PROGRAMMED to climb.
Let’s face it, when we are growing up we start off TOTALLY FREE … we can leap as high as we want in life.
But then we start to get ‘educated’. Particularly when it comes to success in life and how to achieve wealth.
This ‘education’ comes at us from all angles. From our negative experiences … from our parents … from our friends … from our relatives … from our colleagues … from our teachers etc.
But lets look at the reality… (continued here)
