people are honest and nice

10. Write your thoughts about money–
– what did you hear when you were young?
– what was modeled in your family?
– any incidents of significance?

11. Write a paragraph—
– What does money really mean to you? (e.g.,
status, safety)
– What is your attitude toward money and
success?
– Why creating wealth is (is not) important to you.
Be specific.

12. Wealth File: Rich people focus on opportunities.
Poor people focus on obstacles.
Is the glass half empty or half full?
Poor people . . .
 make choices based upon fear
 Scanning for what is wrong or could go wrong
 Focus on what if it doesn’t work

13. Rich People
 Take responsibility for the results– “It will work
because I’ll make it work.”
 Expect to succeed
 Have confidence in their abilities
 If things don’t work out, they will find another way
to succeed

14. Risk
Rich People
 See opportunity
 Willing to take risk
 Worst case– they can
always make it back
 Take educated risk
 Do not take forever to
get educated; know
you can never know all
information
Poor People
 Expect to fail
 Focus on obstacles,
they are usually
unwilling to take risk
 If things don’t work out,
it would be
catastrophic
 Preparing really is
stalling

15. Ready, Fire, Aim
“It’s nuts to think you can know everything that
may happen in the future. It’s delusional to
believe you can prepare for every
circumstance that might someday occur.”
1. Get ready quickly
2. Take action
3. Correct along the way

16. Action always beats inaction.
Rich people get started–
Adjust along the way

17. Rich People Understand the Huge
Distinction between
1. Working Income
and
2. Net Worth

18. Four Net Worth Factors
1) income: working and passive income
2) savings
3) investments
4) simplification: lifestyle where you can live on a
modest amount of money

19. Without Passive Income,
You Can Never Be Free
Most people have a tough time creating passive
income because
1. Conditioning-your money blueprint: “Go to work;
get a job”
2. Never taught how to earn passive income
3. Never given it much attention– attention is on
career (working income)

20. Why Income Alone Will Never
Create Wealth
Typically, expenses will rise in direct
proportion to income.

21. Know Your Net Worth to the Penny
 Blank Sheet: Title, Net Worth
 Chart: $0 to Net Worth Objective
 Note your current net worth
 Every 90 days, enter your net worth
What you focus on expands!!!!

22. Rich People: Manage their money well
Poor People: Mismanage their money well
To master money, you must manage money
 Wealthy people: not smarter than poor
 Poor people: either mismanage or avoid

23. You must acquire the HABITS and SKILLS of
managing a small amount of money before
you can have a large amount.
The HABIT of managing your money is more
important than the amount.

24. Either you control money, or it will control you.
To control money, you must manage it.
Rich people have their money work hard for
them. Poor people work hard for their
money.

25.  First you work hard for your money, then
you let money work hard for you.
 The more your money works, the less you
will have to work.

26. Should this be the goal?
To never have to work again . . . Unless you
choose to . . . If you work, you work by
choice, not by necessity.

27. Instant Gratification
Overspending and the need for immediate
gratification have little to do with the actual
item you’re buying, and everything to do
with lack of fulfillment in your life.

28. Rich People
 Work to pay for their
investments, which will
pay for their future
 Buy assets that
appreciate
Poor People
 Work to earn money to
live today
 Buy expenses

29. What a quote!
Rich people see every dollar as a “seed” that can be
planted to earn a hundred more dollars, which can
then be replanted to earn a thousand more dollars.
Every dollar you spend today may actually cost
you a hundred dollars tomorrow. Personally, I
consider each of my dollars to be investment
“soldiers” and their mission is “freedom”.
Needless to say, I’m careful with my “freedom
fighters” and don’t get rid of them quickly or easily.

30. Wealth File
Rich People Act in Spite of Fear
Poor People Let Fear Stop Them
 In the real world you have to take real ACTION to succeed
 Action is the bridge between the inner world (root) and
outer world (fruit/results)

31. What a quote, again!
If you are willing to do only what’s easy, life
will be hard.
But if you are willing to do what’s hard, life
will be easy.

32. If you want to create wealth or any other kind
of success, you must be a warrior.
You must train yourself to NOT be stopped by
anything.

33. The only time you are actually growing is
when you are uncomfortable.
If you want to be rich and successful, you’d
better get comfortable with being
uncomfortable.

34. Expand your comfort zone,
Expand your wealth zone
If your goal in life is to be comfortable, I
guarantee two things:
1) You will never be rich
2) You will never be happy
Happiness doesn’t come from living a
lukewarm life. Happiness comes as a
result of being in our natural state of
growth and living up to our fullest potential.

35. Task
List your three greatest worries, concerns, or
fears regarding money and wealth.
Challenge them. For each, write down what
you would do if the situation you fear
actually happened. Would you still survive?
Would you make a comeback?

36. Wealth File
Rich People Constantly Learn and Grow
The fastest way to get rich and stay rich is to
work on developing you.
Becoming rich isn’t as much about getting rich
financially as about whom you have to
become, in character and mind, to get rich.

37. The Goal of All Goals is to Grow
Yourself as a Person

38. Set-up 6 Accounts
10%: Financial Freedom Account– used for
investments & creating passive income
10%: Long-Term Savings for Spending
Account
10%: Giving
10%: Education
10%: Play account– spend $ every month
50%: Necessities Account

39. Simple but Rare Advice
 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.
Again, what you focus on expands!

40. The mark of true wealth is determined by how
much you can give away.
