Welcome to part 2 of this training series based on multi-millionaire T. Harv Eker’s best selling book "Secrets of the Millionaire Mind"
Eker’s book is all about how rich and poor people think differently, and how their results comes down to their mindset, beliefs and the way that they think, feel and act in regards to money.
Your thoughts lead to your feelings, which lead to actions, which lead to results.
Harv refers to these as wealth files.
So let’s pick up where we left off in part 1.
Wealth file #6
Rich people admire other rich and successful people.
Poor people resent other rich and successful people.
Back when I was growing up, our family wasn’t poor but we were hardly rich.
I remember how my Mother used to refer to someone in the town that had money or was perceived as being well off:
“He’s got more money than a bull can s#*t”
Or “He’s as tight as a fishes a@#$*#le”.
It used to make me laugh at the time, but thinking back now I realise that everybody I knew would resent anyone being well off and having a go, and then whinge that they never had any money themselves.
It is classic victim talk.
Or in Australia we call it the “tall poppie syndrome”.
Anyone that rises up, people love to cut them back down to size.
But when you think about it, if you resent people with money, then how are you going to have money yourself.
I like Harv’s take on the Huna philosophy: “bless that which you want,” and that includes money and the rich!
