Millionaire Mindset series 2: Your beliefs about money determine your financial growth

The vast majority of people simply do not have the internal capacity to create and hold on to large amounts of money and the increased challenges that go with more money and success. That, my friends, is the primary reason they don’t have much money.

Beliefs are the root systems that govern our lives, although we can’t see them they determine the outcomes of our lives. It’s what’s under the ground that creates what’s above the ground. It’s what’s invisible that creates what’s visible. So what does that mean? It means that 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.

As humans, we are a part of nature, not above it. Consequently, when we align with the laws of nature and work on our roots our “inner” world (beliefs) our life flows smoothly. When we don’t, life gets rough. That’s why placing your attention on the fruits that you have already grown is futile. You cannot change the fruits that are already hanging on the tree. You can, however, change tomorrow’s fruits. But to do so, you will have to dig below the ground and strengthen the roots.

A perfect example is lottery winners. Research has shown again and again that regardless of the size of their winnings, most lottery winners eventually return to their original financial state, the amount they can comfortably handle. On the other hand, the opposite occurs for self-made millionaires. Notice that when self-made millionaires lose their money, they usually have it back within a relatively short time.

Whatever you don’t hold true in your heart will never work for you. Faith works both ways generating both positive and negative energy. When you focus on the possibilities, you will tend to attract more opportunities and vice versa. And whatever you ignore, you will lose. Many people lose their wealth because they are not intentional about keeping it or worse still they don’t believe they deserve it.

What is your blue print about money? Millionaires believe they are born to be that way before they have become actual millionaires. Whatever your mind and heart can envision, that you will accomplish. If you have never anticipated to become wealthy, then don’t bother expecting it. Life serves you the things you believe and hold to be true. This same principle applies to your financial growth and independence.

When you change the way you think about money and start valuing every single coin that comes through your life then you will begin to attract wealth and more money. Money goes where it is valued and appreciated, that begins with you believing that you are able and worthy of the money that you receive.
