Lack of money is a symptom of inner turmoil

Here are a couple of powerful wealth principles given by T. Harv Eker in his book, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind:

Wealth Principle: If you want to change the fruits, you will first have to change the roots.  If you want to change the visible, you must first change the invisible.

Wealth Principle: Money is a result, wealth is a result, health is a result, illness is a result, your weight is a result.  We live in a world of cause and effect.

There are four dimensions in which we live our lives: mental, spiritual, emotional, and physical.  The first three listed are invisible aspects of our lives.  They are difficult to measure and not easily seen nor understood.  The last dimension, the physical, is the result of our mental, spiritual, and emotional labors.  If we are not happy with our physical results (i.e. our wealth, our health, or our weight) we must first look to our invisible dimensions of being to see what needs to change there.  We must first change the inner before we can achieve a different outer physical result.

If our mind, spirit, and heart do not feel worthy of making a million dollars then we will certainly never physically manifest a million dollars because our inner thoughts shun the idea.  This also goes for weight or health.  If we feel inside that we are always going to be overweight or sick, then guess what?  Our mind and our body will work hard to make what we believe on the inside to be true on the outside (i.e. your physical results).

Take the first steps to training your inner mind so that you may begin to change your physical results by attending T. Harv Eker's Millionaire Mind Intensive.  Click on the link below for free tickets to his next event near you:

Why 80% of people are unsuccessful and unhappy

T. Harv Eker references research that shows that 80% of people will never be financially free in the manner they wish to be and 80% of people are not happy.  Why is that?  Most people do not take charge of their life.  They live life on autopilot.  They wake up, they go to work, they come home, watch TV and hang out with their family for a bit if they have one, and then go to bed to get up the next day and start all over.  What are they doing that will create a change of any kind in their life?  The only way to create massive change in your life is to get out of the comfort zone you find yourself in.  Break the cycle and start doing something massively productive.  Seek to provide something of incredible value not only in your own life but in the lives of those around you.  The more people you can serve in a positive manner the greater your chance is of doing something amazing with your life.

I will quote again Stuart Wilde because I believe his quote has meaning here:

"The key to success is to raise your own energy; when you do people will naturally be attracted to you.  And when they show up, bill 'em!"

Do something amazing and then show others how they can do the same.  That is the easiest and quickest way to success.  Do something unique and travel down roads that few dare to go.  Let the following words of Robert Frost remind you that it is when you don't follow the crowd and you don't stay in the status quo that you make the most difference:


TWO roads diverged in a yellow wood,  
And sorry I could not travel both  
And be one traveler, long I stood  
And looked down one as far as I could  
To where it bent in the undergrowth;          5
  
Then took the other, as just as fair,  
And having perhaps the better claim  
Because it was grassy and wanted wear;  
Though as for that, the passing there  
Had worn them really about the same,   10
  
And both that morning equally lay  
In leaves no step had trodden black.  
Oh, I marked the first for another day!  
Yet knowing how way leads on to way  
I doubted if I should ever come back.   15
  
I shall be telling this with a sigh  
Somewhere ages and ages hence:  
Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,  
I took the one less traveled by,  
And that has made all the difference.   20

Your income can only grow to the extent that you do - T. Harv Eker

As I was reading the book, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, by T. Harv Eker I came across a quote he gave by one of his favorite authors, Stuart Wilde.  The quote reads as follows:

"The key to success is to raise your own energy; when you do, people will naturally be attracted to you.  And when they show up, bill 'em!"

Needless to say Stuart Wilde is now one of my favorite authors.

Here are a couple of the declarations that T. Harv Eker teaches at his Millionaire Mind Intensive:

"I get rich doing what I love."

"I deserve to be rich because I add value to other people's lives."

"I am a generous giver and an excellent receiver."

All of these declarations reinforce the quote by Stuart Wilde, as we increase our energy and our ability to benefit others we should not be afraid to ask just compensation and we should be open to receiving the rewards of our labors.

What is your money blueprint?

T. Harv Eker starts his book, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, off with a story of how he didn't start to have success in his business ventures until he learned to think like a millionaire and unlearn his then current mind set.  He had tried business after business after business and failed at every one of them.  He had listened to all the tapes and CDs, read all the books, gone to the seminars, and still wasn't experiencing any success.  Then he relates how one of his dad's rich friends gave him the advice that if he wanted to be successful in business as rich people are he needed to learn first how to think like a rich person and stop thinking like a middle class or poor person.

T. Harv Eker took this advice to heart and devoted his efforts to learning how rich people think and how to unlearn some of his core beliefs that were holding him back.  He then went on to start several successful businesses and has been successful ever since.  Now he has created the Millionaire Mind Intensive to help others  that are struggling against their inner beliefs about money and success.  This three-day seminar is structured to change the way people think about money and to move them towards success by getting rid of their limiting beliefs.  The seminar will truly change your money blueprint and open you up to a new life and a new way of thinking.

Since I have attended the Millionaire Mind Intensive just last month I already have two businesses that are quickly proving to be very successful and I am no longer the road block to my success.  I started an eBay business where I buy electronics wholesale and sell them on eBay at the retail price.  My first shipment of external hard drives comes in next week and I will be able to turn my $1600 investment into nearly $5000 within a month!  I am also doing an eBay coaching business and with the help of my success coach, Ungenita Prevost (check out her website at www.thebilliondollarbeauty.com), I now have my first client that will start the coaching program in January!  My introductory package is $3000 for 10 one hour weekly coaching sessions and I will walk my clients through how to set up their eBay business, make it profitable, and automate it.  I am sure I am just one of hundreds if not thousands whose life has been changed dramatically by the Millionaire Mind Intensive.

Financial foundation building blocks

Here are the 10 financial building blocks that you must have in place (according to Mark Rothstein AKA Mr. Money):

1.  Money Management  - create a budget, understand where your money is coming from and where it is going, create an investment plan, and automate it.
2.  Estate Planning - Get a living trust and a will so that if anything ever happens to you your family will be taken care of.
3.  Credit and Debt - get rid of your credit card debt as quickly as possible, credit utilization should be below 30% of your credit available, work to get your credit score higher than 710 and keep it there.
4.  Income Taxes - get a good CPA to help you do your taxes, a lot of money is lost simply because people don't take advantage of various tax right offs and implement tax saving strategies that a good CPA can help you find.
5.  Insurance - make sure you have sufficient insurance so that a medical or dental issue doesn't cause you financial hardship.
6.  Understand the Economy - understand the current fiscal and monetary policies being implemented.
7.  Investment - Educate yourself on various investment strategies and get expert advice to know how to invest your money in the right markets.
8.  Real Estate - know where and when to invest and when to wait.
9.  Retirement - create a retirement plan now and automate it.
10.  Money and Relationships - you and your spouse need to be on the same page financially.

Mr. Money and T. Harv Eker have now teamed up and have an awesome wealth foundation seminar.  To learn more about it attend the next Millionaire Mind Intensive.  Get a free ticket, normally $795, by clicking on this link:

Passive income streams - your ticket to freedom!

Your goal in business should be to create enough passive income that you can pay for your desired lifestyle.  This will allow you not only financial freedom but time freedom as well.  Who wants to start a business only to become a slave to that business and never have any time to relax and enjoy yourself?  There are several types of businesses that provide passive income.  These may include any of the following:

1.  Car wash
2.  Internet business
3.  Parking lots
4.  Earning royalties from a product you invented or business you created
5.  Memberships
6.  ATM machines
7.  DVD dispensers
8.  Cell phone apps
9.  Joint ventures

Passive income may also come from investments like stocks, bonds, and real estate.  Remember your goal with passive income is to be able to live off of it so you may want to use more than one source to build up the income you will need.  If your passive income is coming from stocks or some other similar investment be sure to only take the interest from that investment as your passive income.  If you wipe out the entire investment then your passive income stream is gone and you have essentially killed the goose that was laying the golden eggs.

To learn more about setting up passive income streams attend T. Harv Eker's next Millionaire Mind Intensive.  You can get a free ticket from the link below (these are usually $795):

I rule money, money doesn't rule me!

I rule money, money doesn't rule me!

Are you in control of money or is money in control of you?  How do you know?  Think of something you really want to do that will stretch your limits and bring you to a new level in your life.  What is the first thing that pops into your head?  Is it, I don't have enough money to do that?  Are you putting your goals and dreams on hold because of money?  Are you working at a job you hate because of money?  Are you missing your kids activities because of money?  Who is in control?  You or money?  If you answered yes to one or more of the above questions it is highly likely that money is in control of you.

If you do or don't do things because of money than money is controlling you.  How do you take back control?  You do the things you want to do and live the life you want to live without making money the guiding factor.  Say you want to start a new business.  Instead of letting your money issues defeat your business before it even starts sit down and strategize.  What are your main obstacles?  How will you overcome those obstacles?  If one of your obstacles is a lack of money, instead of giving up, think how to create more money to fund your business!  Or think of a creative way to start your business with none of your own money.  Partner with someone who has money or who has an audience that may respond positively to your ideas.  You rule money!  Money doesn't rule you!

Has your son or daughter ever asked you for something and you told them that you can't give them what they want because you don't have the money for it?  Did they give up asking for whatever it was they wanted?  Did they try a different tactic to see if they could get around the money issue?  Did they try to negotiate with you and try to work around the money issue?  My eight-year-old son does this all the time.  It is frustrating at times because I want to say no and let that be the end of it, but on the other hand I like to encourage that behavior because it is very beneficial in life.  We should teach our children to not be defeated if the answer is no the first time.  How many successful businesses or authors exist that were turned down several times before they made their first major breakthrough?

Here is a great example of two authors who had a great idea and became major successes despite being turned down by hundreds of publishers when they tried to get their first book published:

Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen were convinced their little collection of inspirational stories had the power to make a meaningful difference in the lives of readers. Trouble was -- they couldn't find a publisher who agreed with them. They took their book to publishing conferences and literally hundreds of publishers ignored them. Finally they found a small publisher who would print a few thousand books for them and they started selling Chicken Soup for the Soul from the backs of their cars as they drove around making speeches and doing book signings. Eventually the book, that wonderful "little engine that could," turned into a worldwide bestseller and Chicken Soup for the Soul became a publishing phenomenon, one of the most successful lines of books in history.  http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Books/chicken-soup-soul-positive-foreword-deborah-norville/story?id=11827877&page=2

You rule money!  Money doesn't rule you!

The most debilitating emotion is anger

Holding onto anger is like grasping onto a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else. You are the one who gets burned. 
- Gautama Buddha


Resentment is like taking poison and waiting for the other person to die.
- Malachy McCourt


To carry a grudge is like being stung to death by one bee.
- William H. Walton


Holding on to anger, resentment and hurt only gives you tense muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth.
Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and the lightness in your life.
- Joan Lunden


We hold onto the hurt, the anger, the resentment, because we fear that if we could let it go effortlessly, then whoever caused the pain in the first place, would be getting away with it too easily.
- http://meganwyatt.wordpress.com/2008/10/10/why-we-hold-onto-anger-and-resentment/



All healing is a release from the past
- T. Harv Eker


For true healing to occur one must empty out all the stored pain, hurt, blame and hatred. We cannot just by-pass the emptying out and releasing process and jump straight to genuine forgiveness, because the consciousness connected to the issues remains stored inside the body and it continues to have a life of its own. And that can be damaging.
- Brandon Bays (http://newconnexion.net/articles/index.cfm/2007/09/Moving_Past_Pseudo-Forgiveness.html)


-------------------------------------------------------------


The quotes and articles referenced above can be a great wake up call.  Any one of us can relate to these sayings because at various times in our life we have had anger and resentment toward someone else.  Anger is very damaging but what we may not realize is that it is most damaging to us.  Being angry at someone else will only slow your progress and cause you to stumble.  The other person may not even be aware of you feelings of animosity or may not even care.  If you spend all your time and energy focused on the reason why you are angry you will never get past it.  


The greatest source of healing comes from releasing this most negative of emotions.  Therapy works great for getting in touch with why you are angry to begin with.  If you can understand the source of the emotion it is much easier to let it go.  Also remember that the other person's point of view could be completely different than your own and if you spent time trying to understand the issue from their point of view it might be easier to let go of the anger caused by that person.

Take what you save on the buy and invest it

So last Friday was Black Friday.  The day when all the retail stores give all kinds of crazy deals in an effort to attract thousands to their store hungry to buy.  How many of you went to Wal-Mart, Toys R Us, Best Buy or any of the hundreds of stores offering huge savings on their merchandise?  How much money did you save on all the purchases you made?  Depending on how avid a shopper you are you probably saved hundreds of dollars.

Now imagine if you took that savings and turned around and invested it.  That would be a nice amount of money to buy silver or gold, money to set aside to make your next real estate investment, money to invest in your next business opportunity, etc...  Instead of resting on your laurels by having saved so much money you could be making that money work for you to make you more and more money.

What is more exciting?  Money that you didn't spend today that you will probably end up spending tomorrow?  Or money that is invested wisely that brings you passive income so that you can enjoy your life?  Perhaps you are thinking that you don't know of any good investments and that the stock market is down right now so you wouldn't dream of putting your money in stocks.  These are valid concerns.  Why not learn from the best on how and where to invest your money?

Start by attending the next Millionaire Mind Intensive and it will jump start your life in the right direction.  T. Harv Eker and his company will help you understand how to create passive wealth in this economy as well as rewire you for success!  He is even giving away free seats at his next Millionaire Mind Intensive to make sure that nothing will stop you from being successful.  Click the link below to register for the next Millionaire Mind Intensive near you:
