RICH, RICH & MORE RICH

Being rich is not just about having loads of material items, it’s about a state of mind. The first step to becoming wealthy is to stop thinking poor! Often when we are in the situation of not having much of a disposable income, we try to change our conditions first to better our situation. Really the first thing we have to do is change our mindset. If we constantly tell ourselves we don’t have much money eventually our subconscious mind starts to believe it and often this is how we live our lives. There is however, ways that we can change this.

First and foremost you have to start believing in yourself and your abilities. People like Donald Trump didn’t get to where they are thinking they weren’t good enough. Believing in yourself doesn’t mean that you are arrogant, it merely means you are comfortable with you as a person and what you can achieve. You also need to be committed. Becoming wealthy does mean hard work and total commitment to your cause. If you want to earn a lot of money then you have to be prepared to work a lot of hours.

Don’t be afraid to “blow your own horn”. Most of us were raised to believe that it’s not polite to rave about your own successes, however if you want people to know about you and what you can do, you have to be able to tell them confidently without sounding “full of yourself” of course.

Surround yourself with people that make you feel good and are positive thinkers. A negative environment is often contagious so if the people that you associate with are negative about everything around them then eventually you will comply with this too. Wealthy people are rarely negative about anything. They are open to learning new experiences and challenges and remain positive about life. Model yourself on someone who is wealthy, someone who has been there and done that successfully. After all if you wanted to learn something new, you wouldn’t choose to learn it from someone who failed at the same task, you would find someone who succeeded so do the same with your wealth.

There are some great books out there that can help change your way of thinking to a positive mindset such as “The Power of your Subconscious Mind” by Joseph Murphy. Your local bookstore will have many more than can help you on your way.

Positive thinking takes time and a strong willpower to deflect the negative thoughts or talk in your mind but eventually it will become a way of life – if you’re committed to making it so and once you have the ability to change your thinking you will be well on the way to achieving everything that you want out of life!
