1. Change the way you look at money

You were taught how to think about and handle money whether you realize it or not. At the same time, you developed a specific way of thinking about money. Right now, you probably have heaps of sources of influences about money; like parents, brother and sisters, friends, teachers, religious leaders, media and the culture we all live in as well. And this influence about money stays with you for the rest of your life unless you do something about it right now!

Once you are aware of the way you look at money you can make the choice to change it around to the positive and get you going towards the riches you deserve.
Take a look at these so-called 'money beliefs'. Think about them. Do you hear them said often? A family member perhaps? Do you even say them yourself?

  • Money is the root of all evil
  • Rich people are greedy
  • You can't be rich and spiritual
  • Money doesn't buy happiness
  • And the famous…”We can't afford it”
  • Money corrupts
  • Money doesn't matter
  • There is not enough to go around
  • You don't deserve to have that
  • Money changes people
  • Having lots of money is a hassle
  • To be rich, you have to use people and take advantage of them
  • I’m not smart or educated enough
  • If you are not born rich, chances are you will never be rich
      Rich people don't think about money this way and neither should you! Rich people know that having a lot of money is NOT greedy. It's actually very useful. Rich people that by having a lot of money they can help the world out SO much more. The best way to help poor people is to not be one of them. :D
