Wealth File #5 Rich people focus on opportunities. Poor people focus on obstacle.

Poor people makes choices based upon fear. Their minds are constantly scanning for what is wrong or could go wrong in any situation. Their primary mindset is "What if it doesn't work? or, more often, "It won't work."

Middle class people are slightly more optimistice. Their mindset is "I sure hope this works."

Rich people expect to succeed. They have confidence in their abilities, they have confidence in their creativity, and they believe that should the doo-doo hit the fan, they can find another way to succeed.

Rich people are willing to take a risk. Rich people believe that, if worse comes to worst, they can always make their money back.

Poor people, on the other hand, expect to fail. They lack confidence in themselves and in their abilities. Poor people believe that should things not work out, it would be catastrophic. And because they constantly see obstacles, they are usually unwilling to take risk. No risk, no reward.

Rich people take educated risks. This means that they research, do their due diligence, and make decisions based on solid information and facts.

No luck or anything else worhwhile will come your way unless you take some form of action to succeed financially, you have to do something, buy something, or start something. And when you do it, is it luck or is it the universe or a higher power suopporting you in its miraculous ways for having the courage and commitment to go for it.

Rich people focus on what they want, while poor people focus on what they don't want. Again, the universal law states, "what you focus on expands."

Focus on opportunities and that's what you find. Focus on obstacles and that's what you find. I'm not saying that you don't take care of problems. Of course, handle problems as they arise, in the present. But keep your eye on your goal, keep moving forward your target. Put your time and energy into creating what you want. When obstacles arise, handle them, then quickly refocus on your vision. You don't spend all your times fighting fires. Those who do, move backwards! you spend your time and energy in thought and deed, moving steadily forward, toward your goal.

It's delusional to believe youcan prepare for every circumstance that might someday occur and protect yourself from it.

Life doesn't travel in perfectly straight lines. It moves more like a winding river. More often than not, you can only see to the next bend, and only when you reach that next turn can you see more.

If you really want to learn a business, get into it. You don't have to own the darn thing from day one. Get in the corridor by getting a job in the arena. You'll learn more by sweeping up a restaurant and washing dishes than by ten years of research from the outside.

Being in the "corridor" means entering the arena where you want to be in the future, in any capacity, to get started.This is far and away the best way to learn about a business, because you see it from the inside. Second, you can make the contacts you need, which you could never have made from the outside. Third, once you're in the corridor, many other doors of opportunity may open to you. That is, once you witness what's really going on, you may discover a niche for yourself that you hadn't recognize before. Fourth, you may find that you don't really like this field, and thank goodness you found out before you got in too deep!

"Action always beats inaction." Rich people get started. They always trust that once they get in the game, they can make intelligent decisions in the present moment, make corrections, and adjust their sails along the way.

Poor people don't trust in themselves or their abilities, so they believe they have to know everything in advance, which is virtually impossible.

In the end, with their positibe, "ready, fire, aim," attitude, rich people take action and usually win.

Rich people see an opportunitym jump on it, abd get even richer. As for poor people? They're still "preparing!"

Declarations: "I focus on opportunities over obstacles.""I get ready, I fire, I aim!"

Maximizing Your Profits with Scoring

SETTING YOUR MAXIMUM INTRADAY TRADING LOSS First things first: set a max intraday trading loss. There will be days when you just do not have it. Why do you think coaches pull their players when they are not playing well? They are more harmful on the field than off. When you are underperforming, you are hurting your team and your trading business. You need a system to yank yourself over to the bench. A stop loss is your answer. TRADING BASED UPON THE TIME OF DAY A good trader makes note of what time of day it is, when he trades most profitably, and adjusts his trading to fit such times. Your numbers at the end of the month will not reflect your true trading potential. Make the most trades with the most size during the trading periods that statistically are most profitable for you. Money saved during your weaker trading periods is money earned. Consistency The fact is that most trades you make will start working for you right away. But the new traders also hold stocks that are trading ag...

So what is your money blueprint set for?

Are you programmed for managing your money well or mismanaging it? Are you a spender or a saver ? Wealth principle: The only way to permanently change the temperature in the room is to reset the thermostat. In the same way, the only way to change your level of financial success "permanently" is to reset your financial thermostat. You can become an expert in real estate or the stock market. All of these are tremendous "tools." But in the end, without an inner "tool-box" that is big enough and strong enough for you to create and hold on to large amounts of money, all the tools in the world will be useless to you. Your income can grow only to the extent that you do. Remember that the first element of all change is awareness.Watch yourself, become conscious, observe your thoughts, your fears, your beliefs, your habits, your actions, and even your inactions. Put yourself under a microscope. Study yourself. Wealth principle: Consciousness is observin...

Wealth File #4 Rich people think big. Poor people think small

Wealth principle: The law of Income: You will be paid in direct proportion to the value you deliver according to the marketplace. The keyword is value. It's important to know that four factors determine your value in the marketplace: supply,demand,quality and quantity. The factor that presents the biggest challenge for most people is the quantity. The quantity factor simply means, how much of your value do you actually deliver to the marketplace? Another way of stating this is, how many people do you actually serve or affect? Most people choose to play small. Why? First, because of fear. They're scared to death of failure and they're even more frightened of success. Second, people play small because they feel small. They feel unworthy. They don't feel they're good enough or important enough to make a real difference in people's lives. But hear this: your life is not just about you. It's also about contributing to others. It's about living true...
