Get Yourself Into The Right Mindset
In order to succeed, you need to be in the right mindset, wouldn’t you agree?
If you’re thinking about starting your career in online marketing and you’ve been reading and researching all the information you can… you’re on the right track.
Before you do anything else, the first step is to get your mind in the right place. No matter how long it takes, you need to get your priorities straight. With a strong conviction in what you believe in, you are surely able to go further than the average Joe without any principles.
What is the right place?
Your mind was subconsciously conditioned to fail or stay comfortable. To stay poor.
When we were born, our minds were a blank slate. That’s when we start to absorb information and knowledge and become who we are today while we grow older. We are a product of our environment and who we communicate with. Our parents have conditioned us to not take risks, not spend too much, and to stay safe economically. Our parents want us to stay safe because if anything happened, they didn’t have enough money to alter the situation.
Let’s say your family is poor. You got into a fight that ended up you being put in jail. Your parents don’t have enough money for bail or hire a very good lawyer to keep you out of jail. You will stay in jail.
Now imagine you’re rich. Same scenario, you got into a fight that landed you in ail. Your parents, very rich, sure they seem disappointed in you, but no matter what, they bail you out or lawyer up, depending on how badly of a situation you got yourself into. You will end up home. Probably grounded for a day or two until your parents forget due to them counting their cash.
In Robert Kiyosaki’s book, that is what his biological father trained him to do all his life; to stay poor. His friend’s father, a very
wealthy man, had another plan. A different lifestyle that taught Robert Kiyosaki how to become rich and STAYED THAT WAY.
“It’s not what you say out of your mouth that determines your life, it’s what you whisper to yourself that has the most power!”
—Robert Kiyosaki
An example is sports athletes; America’s beloved children. They make millions every year but most end up bankrupt the following year. How do they make so much money but end up bankrupt? Financial illiteracy and poor spending habits.
‘Being responsible with your money’ is different from ‘saving your money’ There are several things you need to budget your money into. The 4 main things are Food, Rent, Entertainment, and Business. Food and Rent are two specific needs that are fixed. Believer or not entertainment is also a NEED. We’re human, and whether or not you spend very little or spend thousands on entertainment, it is what keeps us grounded and sane.
Of course if you are one to spend a bit too much, more than you can afford, you’ll have extra homework to tone down on your entertainment expenses. If a $10 book or a movie ticket will sweep you off your feet, excellent! You’ll have more to spend on your business. We’re here to create a long term personal business. If you’re here to get rich overnight, you’re at the wrong place.
Financial Standing ………… (Bucketing your Income)
Food ……………………………. FIXED
Rent …………………………….. FIXED
Entertainment ………………. Minimal but necessary
Business ……………….……… Investments and Reinvestments
