Question? Do you think there is a problem?

Can you see why so many are unable to reach financial prosperity?

Have you ever wondered why some people seem to get rich easily and others are destined for financial struggle?

Is the difference found in their education, intelligence, skills, timing, work habits, contacts, luck or their choice of jobs, business or investment?

The shocking answer is… none of the above!!

Let’s talk about the inner laws of money. What do I mean by the inner laws of money?

Write this down….“It is not enough to be in the right place at the right time. You have to be the right person in the right place at the right time.”

Question – How are you? How do you rate you? How do others rate you? How do you think about money? What are your beliefs about money? How do you feel about you and your money? Do you truly feel that you deserve financial prosperity?

Napoleon Hill said – “Poverty is a state of mind and nothing else.”

Stuart Wilde said “The key to success is to raise your own energy. When you do, people will be naturally attracted to you. And when they show up…..BILL EM.”

Jim Rohn said “Your income can grow only to the extent you do.”

Zig Ziglar said…“Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune. Money is something that we attract and not pursue.”

Have any of you heard of the Law of Income? – the law of income says that “You will be paid in direct proportion to the value you deliver according to your marketplace.”

Research shows that 80% of individuals will never be financially free in the way they would like to be. “If you want to change the fruits, you will first have to change the roots.”

T. Harv Ecker sums it up brilliantly. “Your financial destiny is determined by your own money blueprint.”

What does he mean “your money blueprint”? What are things you have heard, seen, experienced in your blueprints about… Money? About being rich? About rich people when you were a child? As an adolescent? As an adult?

Do any of these sound familiar?

• Money is evil.
• Rich are greedy.
• Rich get richer…poor get poorer.
• What am I made of? Money?
• Money doesn’t grow on trees. Etc. etc.

You can redefine your blueprint using the Wealth Principle: The Wealth Principle is – TFAR (Thoughts, Feelings, Actions, Results) – Thoughts lead to feelings. Feelings lead to actions. Actions lead to results.

Example “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 financial success permanently is to reset your financial thermostat.”

Reset your thoughts which will then change your feelings, which will then change your actions, which will change your results and your financial success.

Ecker said ….“If you shoot for the stars, you will at least hit the moon.” Poor people don’t even shoot for the ceiling in their home and wonder why they are not successful.

This is simple arithmetic. Your income can grow only to the extent that you do.

Remember the first element of change is awareness. Are you aware of your own blueprints? Watch yourself become conscious. Observe your thoughts, your fears, your beliefs, your habits, your actions and more importantly your inactions. Put yourself under a microscope. Study yourself and your success and money blueprint. This is your formula for change:

• Awareness – consider specific thoughts, feelings, incidents, emotions around money
• Understanding – write them down and how they may have affected your current financial life
• Disassociation – Can you see how your current wealth is only what you learned, what you know and what you believe
• Declaration – I am going to reset my financial thermostat. I am going to reset that belief right now

George Clason wrote these words in his book “The Richest Man in Babylon.” Money is the medium by which earthly success is measured. Money makes possible the enjoyment of the best the earth affords. Money is plentiful for those who understand the simple laws which govern its acquisition. Money is governed today by the same laws which controlled it when prosperous men thronged the streets of Babylon, six thousand years ago. Let’s take a look at Clason’s Babylonian money laws.

I trust that you find one or two disciplines that you can implement in your personal and business finances and start your journey to a stronger financial future.
