Rich people are willing to promote themselves and their value. Poor people think negatively about selling and promotion.
T. HARV EKERRich people are willing to promote themselves and their value. Poor people think negatively about selling and promotion.
T. HARV EKERPoor and most middle-class people believe “If I have a lot of money, I could do what I want and I’d be a success.” Rich people understand, “If I become a successful person, I will be able to do what I need to do to have what I want, including a lot of money.”
T. HARV EKERRich people believe in themselves. They believe in their value and in their ability to deliver it. Poor people don’t. That’s why they need “guarantees.”
T. HARV EKERPoor people choose now. Rich people choose balance.
T. HARV EKERThe number one reason most people don’t get what they want is that they don’t know what they want. Rich people are totally clear that they want wealth. They are unwavering in their desire. They are fully committed to creating wealth.
T. HARV EKERYou design the life you want to have.
T. HARV EKERTherefore you must grow to be a big container so you cannot only hold more wealth but also attract more wealth. The universe abhors a vacuum and if you have a very large money container, it will rush in to fill the space.
T. HARV EKERIt means being willing to do whatever it takes for as long as it takes. This is the warrior’s way. No excuses, no ifs, no butts, no maybes-and failure isn’t an option. The warrior’s way is simple: “I will be rich or I will die trying.”
T. HARV EKERI observe my thoughts and entertain only those that empower me.
T. HARV EKERUntil you show you can handle what you’ve got, you won’t get any more!
T. HARV EKERRich people see opportunities. Poor people see obstacles. Rich people see potential growth. Poor people see potential loss. Rich people focus on rewards. Poor focus on the risks.
T. HARV EKERThe world doesn’t need more people playing small. It’s time to stop hiding out and start stepping out. It’s time to stop needing and start leading. It’s time to start sharing your gifts instead of hoarding them or pretending they don’t exist. It’s time you started playing the game of life in a “big” way.
T. HARV EKERRich people believe “You can have your cake and eat it too.” Middle-class people believe “Cake is too rich, so I’ll only have a little piece.” Poor people don’t believe they deserve cake, so they order a doughnut, focus on the hole, and wonder why they have “nothing.”
T. HARV EKERHelping people grow and achieve their dreams is the fastest route to success.
T. HARV EKERThe first rule of making progress in anything you do is setting goals, allowing yourself to always have a finish line in sight. This provides a boost in motivation during those moments when slogging forward seems impossible, giving you something tangible to work towards at every moment.
T. HARV EKERWhenever you feel uncomfortable, instead of retreating back into your old comfort zone, pat yourself on the back and say, “I must be growing,” and continue moving forward.
