Rich people focus on opportunities.

Poor people focus on obstacles.

On your own road to financial freedom there are going to be obstacles, setbacks, failures, problems, things that won’t work, people putting you down, etc, etc.

Rich people don’t see these as problems, but rather as opportunities to learn, grow and overcome.

I like to think of these roadblocks as challenges to overcome.

Something I heard a while ago and have never forgotten, is that problems are a sign of life, and if you haven't got any problems you had better pinch yourself because you are probably dead!

If you are going to become rich, accept problems as par for the course and never give up!

In the next couple of weeks I will continue part 2 of this tutorial and further discuss these wealth files.

If you have any thoughts, comments or questions feel free to leave them below.

To your success,

John W. Newman

Thanks for the reminder John! Read this book a few years ago, and remember really enjoying it. Wonderful to find a summary here. I think these principles can be applied to anything that matters in life - not just money. e.g. Cultivating a growth mindset, following a spiritual path, healing the world...

Good job, John! I'm looking forward to part 2 =)
I have not read the book "The secrets of the millionaire mind" but a lot of people have recommended it to me so it's on my list of books to read lol. Have you read "Speed wealth" by Harv Eker?

The money make good things and the money makes bad things, it depends on who has them, good people with money will make good things, bad people with money will make bad things.

Exactly! People often says that money changes people. I believe that money only makes you more of what you already are!
It just amplifies both the good and the bad!
But I believe that you can change your beliefs around money for the better.
Money is only a tool and you should use it for good :-)

Love this kind of stuff, John! I've looked into a few courses that teach mindset and habits of the rich, a lot of credible info there which I totally use myself. I even write about this on my website. Liked and liked!
Best, Thomas
