Mind Of A Millionaire- Peak Potentials Training

• Are you better or worse off than you were five years ago?
• Has your net worth grown or shrunk – or are you saying what net worth?
• Do you have more or less free time for yourself or to spend with your family and friends?
• Do you know the secret to becoming financially free?

You have to know by now that while there are a lot of ways to put yourself on an intersect with wealth and prosperity, there’s also a certain element of luck associated with getting rich or finding any kind of success.

Take for example a guy that purchases a fantastically catchy web address for his website about pizza and goes on to sell it for $2.6 million. Or a land developer that invests in property in the middle of nowhere that suddenly becomes the middle of somewhere.

What do they both have in common? They could be brilliant strategy and preparation, or it could just be just sheer luck. Or both. Who knows!? The one thing we know for sure is that they stepped up to the banks of life’s river and jumped in with no hesitation. They took to success like ducks to water.

Here it is: No luck, or anything worthwhile for that matter, will ever come your way unless you take some form of action.

As our dear friend Brian Tracy says, “I've found that luck is quite predictable. If you want more luck, take more chances. Be more active. Show up more often.” And we couldn’t agree more.

It’s the same with finances. To succeed financially, you have to do something, buy something, or start something in order to get anywhere. And when you do, is it luck or is it the Universe (yay!) supporting you in its miraculous ways for having the courage and commitment to go for it? As far as we’re concerned, who cares? It just happens!

Rich people see an opportunity, jump on it, and get even richer. As for not-rich people, they’re still “preparing” on the banks of that river! Stop preparing to get rich and start getting rich NOW. Get those feathers wet! Trust in yourself and your abilities. Know that you can make intelligent decisions in the spur of the moment, make corrections with certainty and strength and paddle your way to success.

Also remember that what you focus on expands! Always think about what you want, instead of what you don’t want. Continue being overwhelmed by the amount of opportunities around you to become rich and you’ll find yourself there faster than you can say, “I’m a lucky duck!”

We want to hear from you! When is that last time you felt lucky? What fell into place? What became possible? What did you achieve? We’d love to hear your lucky duck story!

Did you know that there are no straight lines in the universe? (Note: we checked with the universe, but all we got back was a smirk and a wink, so we’re going with yes.) None! Don’t believe us? Try making a plan with no wiggle room and watch as those obstacles come rolling down the mountain!

Those of us who’ve learned this lesson (usually the hard way!) now know that life’s more of a winding river than a straight line; complete with raging rapids, smooth sailing and even the occasional waterfall (or two) to show us what we’re really made of. With every twist and turn, we get little glimpses of what’s coming our way, with every obstacle or opportunity we meet, there’s comfort in knowing that, no matter how good or bad it gets, the current will always keep us moving forward.

So here it is: Focus on opportunities and tune out the obstacles. In fact, let’s take the word obstacle out of your vocabulary! Pick it up by its squirmy little britches and drop kick it out the nearest window. Once he’s road pancake you can make room for your new best friend— opportunity. From here on out, every boulder that comes down the mountain, every time life comes out a-swingin’ it’s just opportunity knocking at your door, reminding you of everything you’re capable of.

If we know the river of life is where it’s at, you have one thing to ask yourself: what are you still doing standing on the sidelines? Get in there! You’ll be surprised how quickly the current can pull you toward all the success and opportunity that’s waiting for you downriver that you would never have known was there if you hadn’t jumped in.

Expect to succeed.

Be confident, and get in the game with whatever you’ve got.

The next time life throws an opportunity in your way (see what we did there?), take a breath and remember that the key is to tweak your mindset from “It won’t work” to “I sure hope this works” to “OF COURSE THIS WILL WORK!”

And in the worst of cases, as Harv always says, “Action always beats inaction,” and he tends to know what he’s talking about … so JUMP IN!!!

Happy Paddling!

Now it's your turn! Do you think you can take on this new mindset?  Can you "jump in" when new opportunities arise? Tell us your thoughts!

In today’s tough economy… wait… we can’t finish that sentence without wanting to come unglued. Enough with sentences that start with “In today’s tough economy.” There’s still money everywhere, you just have to find the drive to keep looking for it!

We’ve already talked about how placing blame on your life circumstances (i.e. the economy) is a surefire way to find failure beyond your wildest dreams, but we haven’t talked about what some of the negatives of being rich really are. Can you think of any?

If the answer is yes, you’ve got a little bit of work to do.

If the answer is no, pat yourself on the back. You’re probably getting rich just reading this! There is no negative to being rich. There’s no downside when you compare it to not being rich!

So here’s your million dollar coaching: Stop wanting to get rich and start COMMITTING to being rich.

The biggest difference between rich people and people who aren’t, is that rich people don’t just want to be rich, they aren’t even choosing to be rich, they’re 1,000,000% committed to being rich. When you commit to something what is different? What immediately changes? Does it feel empowering or daunting?

When you know beyond a shadow of a doubt that you’re committed to being rich, you’ll put everything you’ve got into it, without reservation, without even missing a beat.

Do whatever it takes? Sure!  Put the time in until the job gets done? No problem! Risk everything with no guarantee of returns? Where do I sign up?  Read this again. This is the mindset of a rich person.

When you think you can’t put in any more… you put in whatever you’ve got left and just wait and see what our ol’ pal the universe (shout-out!) has in store for you.

What’s something that you can commit to today? Can you commit to financial abundance in 2010 and beyond? Can you commit to contributing beyond yourself? Can you commit to that FTW net worth (that’s “For The Win” for those who missed that post!) right now?

We’re committing to never start a sentence with the words “in today’s tough economy” ever again!

How about you? What are you willing to commit to right now? We want to know!

You’ve SO got this . . .
