Do you wish to be rich? If so, it’s not enough to just have a general desire to be rich; the majority of people share that desire. To be different, you need to get specific. You need to be able to clearly see those riches in your own mind and internally align yourself with that vision.
Setting your goal for the riches you desire is the easy part. The challenge is in becoming the person capable of its achievement by making the necessary changes in your character and behavior.
For example, if your desire is to increase your financial net worth to $500K but you still act and manage you money like someone who only has a net worth of $50K, then you naturally won’t create your desired results. If instead, you first developed the mind state and also modeled the behaviors of someone already earning $500K, you’ll be well on your way of making that goal a reality.
Developing the right state of mind consists of two steps:
(1) Feeding your mind the right ideas. Your job is to nourish your mind with the kinds of thoughts that support your desired outcomes. This can be the ideas you get from books you read and people you surround yourself with.
(2) Guarding your mind against toxic ideas. Your job is to also stand guard at the door of your mind. Be mindful of all the “junk” and “noise” that are trying to make their way into your own mind, which can be detrimental to your desires.
I have found it to be literally true that riches of any kind, begin with your state of mind.
