1. Expect to Succeed
Rich people expect to succeed. They have confidence in their abilities and their creativity, and they believe that they can always find a way to reach their goal.
2. Be Willing To Do What’s Hard
If you’re only willing to do what’s easy, life will be hard. But if you’re willing to do what’s hard, life will be easy.
3. Manage and Train Your Mind
You have the natural ability to install self-empowering thoughts in your mind at any time, simply by choosing to focus on them. Yes, you do have the power to control your mind.
4. Appreciate What You Have
Focus on what you’re grateful for in your life. If you don’t appreciate what you have, you won’t get any more… because the universe thinks it’s not important to you, and therefore you don’t need any more.
5. Focus On Your Net Worth
The true measure of wealthy is net worth, not working income. To build net worth, you need to increase your income, your savings, and your investment returns… and decrease your cost of living by simplifying your lifestyle.
6. Get Clear On What You Want
The number one reason most people don’t get what they want is that they don’t know what they want. Clarity is power. Rich people don’t send mixed messages to the universe; poor people do.
7. Focus On Opportunities
Rich people see opportunities; poor people see obstacles. Rich people see potential growth; poor people see potential loss. Rich people focus on rewards; the poor focus on risks.
8. Work On You
You are the root of your financial success or failure. If you work on the roots, the “fruits” will take care of themselves.
9. Be Accountable For Everything In Your Life
Rich people believe that they create their lives. Poor people believe that life happens to them. If you want to be wealthy, you must believe that you’re the one causing your success, mediocrity, or struggle.
10. Become A Great Learner
Rich people constantly learn and grow. Poor people think that they already know. Every master was once a disaster… you can learn to be great at anything.
11. Forget “Comfortable” Go For “Rich”
If your goal is to be comfortable, chances are you’ll never get rich. But if your goal is to be rich, chances are you’ll end up mighty comfortable.
12. Focus on Contribution
Your life isn’t just about you. If you want to be rich in the truest sense of the word, you must contribute to other people’s lives.
13. Promote Yourself
Rich people are willing to promote themselves and their value. Poor people think negatively about selling and promotion. Resenting promotion is one of the greatest obstacles to success.
14. Increase Your Value
You’ll be paid in direct proportion to the value you deliver to the marketplace. If you’re not earning a lot of money right now, it’s because you’re not delivering a lot of value.
15. Focus on Growing Your Money
If you want to get rich, focus on making, keeping, and investing your money. If you want to be poor, focus on spending your money.
16. Develop The Characteristics of Success
To get rich and stay rich, develop the following characteristics: a positive attitude, integrity, trustworthiness, courage, persistence, a hardworking mentality, high energy… and be an expert in at least one area.
17. Admire Rich And Successful People
Rich people admire other successful people; poor people resent them. If you view wealthy people as bad in any way, you can never be rich, because how can you be something you don’t like?
18. Play The Money Game To Win
Rich people play the money game to win. Their goal is to create massive wealth and abundance. Poor people play the money game to not lose. Their goal is survival and security.
19. Embrace Responsibility
Most people run from responsibility– that’s why they’re broke. Rich people are willing to take on big responsibilities– that’s why they’re rich.
20. Get Paid For Results, Not Time
Wealth Rule #1: No Limits on Your Income. Rich people choose to get paid based on results; poor people choose to get paid based on time, which is limited. Rich people believe in their value and their ability to deliver it; poor people live in fear and need “guarantees.”
21. Think Long-Term
Rich people think long-term: They balance their spending on enjoyment today with saving and investing for freedom tomorrow. Poor people think short-term: They live based on immediate gratification.
22. Associate With Successful People
Birds of a feather flock together. The rich associate with successful people; the poor often associate with unsuccessful people. Energy is contagious. If you want to fly with the eagles, you’ll have to stop swimming with the ducks.
23. Use Power Thinking
With positive thinking, we believe that our thoughts are true. Power thinking recognizes that nothing has meaning except for the meaning we give it. And since we’re making up a story anyway, we might as well make up one that supports us.
24. Be The Best At What You Do
To get paid the best, you must be the best. Rich people are experts in their field, middle-class people are mediocre in their field, and poor people are poor in their field.
25. Don’t Listen To Broke People
Rich people take advice from people who are richer than they are. Poor people take advice from their friends, who are just as broke as they are.
26. Own Your Own Business
Start a business full or part-time, work on commission, get a percentage of revenue or company profits, or get stock options. The vast majority of millionaires became rich by being in their own business.
