The rich invent money

Often in the real world, it's not the smart who get ahead, but the bold.

We all have tremendous potential, and we all are blessed with gifts. Yet the one thing that holds all of us back is some degree of self-doubt.

It is not much of lack of technical information that holds us back, but more the lack of self-confidence. Some are more affected than others.

Games reflect behavior. They are instant feedback systems. Rich people are often creative and take calculated risk. People who take the longest are people who are not familiar with numbers and often do not understand the power of investing.

There are a lot of people who have a lot of money and do not get ahead financially.

Limiting your option is the same as hanging on to old ideas.

It is not so much what happens, but how many different financial solutions you can think of to turn a lemon into millions. It is how creative you are in solving financial problems.

You take whatever happens and make it better. Few people realize that luck is created, just as money is. And if you want to be luckier and create money instead of working hard, then your financial intelligence is important. If you are the kind of person who is waiting for the right thing to happen you might wait for a long time. It's like waiting for all the traffic lights to be green for five miles before you'll start your trip.

The rich make money. The more real you think money is, the harder you will work for it. If you can grasp the idea that money is not real, you will grow richer faster.

The single most powerful asset we all have is our mind. If it is trained well, it can create enormous wealth seeming instantaneously. An untrained mind can also create extreme poverty that can crush a family for generations

The problem with "secure" investments it that they are often sanitized, that it, made so safe that the gains are less.

The greater your financial intelligence, the easier it its to tell whether a deal is good. It's your intelligence that can spot a bad deal, or make a bad deal a good. The more we learn - and there is a lot to learn, the more money we make simply because we gain experience and wisdom as the years go on.

It's not gambling if you know what you're doing. It's gambling if you're just throwing money into a deal and praying.

Great opportunities are not seen with your eyes. They are seen with your mind. Most people never get wealthy simply because they are not trained financially to recognize opportunities right in fron of them.

Sometimes you win and sometimes you learn. But have fun. Most people never win because they're more afraid of losing. That's why I found school silly. In school we learn that mistakes are bad, and we are punished for making them. Yet if you look at the way humans are designed to learn, we learn by making mistakes.

Winners are not afraid of losing. But losers are. Failure is part of the process of success. People who avoid failure also avoid success.

There is always risk, so learn to manage risk instead of avoiding it.

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...

How to Make Good Habits Inevitable and Bad Habits Impossible

Sometimes success is less about making good habits easy and more about making bad habits hard. This is an inversion of the 3rd Law of Behavior Change: make it dif icult. If you find yourself continually struggling to follow through on your plans, then you can take a page from Victor Hugo and make your bad habits more difficult by creating what psychologists call a commitment device. A commitment device is a choice you make in the present that controls your actions in the future. It is a way to lock in future behavior, bind you to good habits, and restrict you from bad ones. When Victor Hugo shut his clothes away so he could focus on writing, he was creating a commitment device. There are many ways to create a commitment device. You can reduce overeating by purchasing food in individual packages rather than in bulk size. You can voluntarily ask to be added to the banned list at casinos and online poker sites to prevent future gambling sprees. I’ve even heard of athletes who have to “mak...
 THE REAL REASON HABITS MATTER the true question is: “Are you becoming the type of person you want to become?” The first step is not what or how, but who. You need to know who you want to be. Otherwise, your quest for change is like a boat without a rudder. And that’s why we are starting here. You have the power to change your beliefs about yourself. Your identity is not set in stone. You have a choice in every moment. You can choose the identity you want to reinforce today with the habits you choose today. Building better habits isn’t about littering your day with life hacks. It’s not about flossing one tooth each night or taking a cold shower each morning or wearing the same outfit each day. It’s not about achieving external measures of success like earning more money, losing weight, or reducing stress. Habits can help you achieve all of these things, but fundamentally they are not about having something. They are about becoming someone. Ultimately, your habits matter because the...
