Millionaire Mindset

Day 24 of 100 DAYS: Tonight Kim D'Avanzo and I were at the Great Indoors Women's Night out. We say 30 women! Each of us did satin hands and mini makeovers on 15 women! WOW! What fun! I will be helping teach Darcie A of Brighton and her wedding party how to look Picture Perfect for her destination wedding this spring! I no longer want to call this 100 Faces in 100 days- I think it should be a 100 Day Blitz to see how many women I can see in 100 days!

Many of you know I am a voracious reader, and I am currently reading 3 books. One of my current reads is (again) "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind" by T. Harv Eker. I had an opportunity to hear Harv on a seminar and to be honest I am always skeptical of books with titles like this. Usually the secrets are to get a bunch of suckers to buy their book, so their "wisdom" falls flat with me. However, since my mentors seemed to find something of value from this particular book, I decided to give it a read. I must admit there are some rich nuggets of very very practical wisdom here-so I decided to share. You may read some of them and say "Yeah, yeah...I know."

So, I am going to invite you to take action.

Read the list, pick two items that peak your attention and take action to incorporate them into your business and your life. For the truly bold, I invite you to make your commitment out loud and to the world by listing your choices in the comments section of this blog or on my facebook wall.

I'll start by telling you my three:

-Grow yourself so that you are bigger than any problem
-The more people you help, the richer you become
-It's time to start sharing your gifts instead of hoarding them or pretending they don't exist

Millionaire Mind Notes -
What you focus on expands: Here is where I will share with you one of my favorite bible verses "if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, let your mind dwell on these things.The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things; and the God of peace shall be with you" Phil 4:9 (NAS)

Stay as far away from complainers as possible (You become like the 5 people you hang out with the most)
The Law of Attraction = Like Attracts Like Goes back to what you think about you bring about!
What do people get out of being a victim? Attention Kathe's note: Victims are volunteers- put on your big girl panties!

There's no such thing as a rich victim

The #1 reason why most people don't get what they want is that they don't know what they want

If you want to be rich you have to be adding value to other people's lives

The happiest people are those who use their natural talents to the utmost

Entrepreneur: person who solves problems for people at a profit - a problem solver

The more people you help, the richer you become

It's time to start sharing your gifts instead of hoarding them or pretending they don't exist

Poor people make choices based on fear

Rich people believe that if worst comes to worst they can always make their money back

Rich people take educated risks

Poor people claim to be preparing for an opportunity - instead they are stalling. Meanwhile the rich guy got in

Rich people expect to succeed

Rich people focus on what they want

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
------------------------------------------------------------------
Get in the game with whatever you've got

Focus on what you have, NOT what you don't have

Find as many financial mentors as possible

Most people earn within 20% of the average income of their closest friends

Make it a point to only associate with successful, positive people (and remember, use your definition of success)

Rich people hang around winners

If you don't toot your own horn, it's possible nobody else will

Rich people are excellent promoters

Rich people are skilled at packaging their value in a way that's extremely attractive

Leaders earn more money than followers

If you really believe in your value then how could it be appropriate to hide it from others?

Grow yourself so that you are bigger than any problem

If you become a master at handling problems and overcoming any obstacle, nothing can stop you from success

If you are not willing to receive, then you are "ripping off" those who want to give to you

Money will only make you more of what you already are

Get rich by helping others

Get rich and then you can help MORE PEOPLE

Never have a ceiling on your income
The majority of millionaires became rich by being in their own business
When you own a business, you can save a small fortune in taxes by writing off portions of your expenses for car, travel, education, home, etc
Selling is one of the world's highest paid professions
You'll never get rich working on a straight salary for someone else
Rich people live in a world of abundance
You can be kind, loving, caring, generous and spiritual person - and be rich
The true measure of wealth is your net worth, NOT your income
The four net worth factors are:
1. Income
2. Savings
3. Investments
4. Simplification
Rich people take the time and energy to learn about investing and investments
Simplification = consciously creating a lifestyle in which you need less money to live on
Expenses will always rise in direct proportion to income
Know your net worth
To master money you must manage money
Rich people are good at managing their money
Start properly handling the money that you already have
You must acquire skills and habits of managing a small amount of money before you can have a large amount
When you begin to manage your money, you'll have plenty of it

My commitments are 1) To take the time and energy to learn more about different kinds of investments and 2)Create a lifestyle that requires less money to live on.

What will you choose to do?
