Do Millionaires think differently?
Can it be a fact that the most successful people in the world actually think differently than the average? Does something called the “Millionaire Mind” actually exist?
In order to answer this question let me ask you another.
Do you really think that it’s possible that Edison could ever have achieved the inventions that he did if he hadn’t believed beyond a shadow of a doubt that he could?
Do you think that Roger Bannister would have ever been able to break the 4 minute mile as the result of thinking “there’s no way I can do it”?
What about Donald Trump, Paul Allen, Richard Branson, Michael Dell, Bill Gates and Ty Warner? Do you really believe that these Super Successful people could have ever achieved the level of success that they did as a result of negative thinking like the average?
Yes they really do think differently than the average crowd so here are a couple tips that will help to keep you on the road to the Millionaire Mind…
Surround yourself with positive people
Success breeds success so stick around positive friends and family. Hang out with wealthy people and you might become one too.
You become a product of your environment. Yes, birds of feather really do flock together.
I can definitely speak for myself. For many, many years I too ran along with the pack of negative thinkers of this world and let me tell you, the influence is very powerful and leads only to destruction.
Misery really does like company and anyone and everyone who is miserable seems to think that you need to be miserable too. They don’t want you to be left out of all of the fun they are having moaning and groaning about how horrible life is.
We’re all Fruit in a basket; in a way.
Have you heard the phrase “one rotten apple spoils the bunch”? This statement is VERY true. That’s all it takes is one negative attitude to spread and take down everyone in sight.
Stop and think about that person in your life who is an extreme pessimist. You know, the one who is so negative and always saying “it can’t be done” or that “it won’t work out” or “there’s no way that it is going to happen”.
Now stop and imagine if someone like Bill Gates were hanging out with this person. Would they?
Of course not, so WHY ARE YOU?
Do yourself a HUGE favor and drop them like a bad habit.
It is absolutely paramount if you are going to create a millionaire mind and be super successful in any aspect of your life, you must surround yourself with the positive thinkers of this world.
Think about how much your life will improve when you share positive thoughts and attitudes with like minded people.
Write down your goals!
Here I go about writing down goals again…
I can never state this FACT enough because it is SO important to help set your mindset for success.
It is so important that you not only write your goals down but put them somewhere you can see and read them on a daily basis. Hang them on your fridge or on the bathroom mirror and read them daily.
Write your goals down and watch the magic begin to happen.
Want proof?
Let me give you a great example.
In 1966, Lou Holtz was hired as assistant head coach to Marvin Bass at the University of South Carolina.
In the mean time, Holtz’ wife was pregnant with their third child and they had just literally spent every penny that they had on a down payment for a house.
Guess what?
About a month into his new duties as assistant coach, Holtz was let go. All of that over his head and his family is now without any income.
Depressed and without a job, Holtz’ wife bought him the book “The Magic of Thinking Big” by David Schwartz. In chapter 12, “Use Goals to Help You Grow”, Schwartz outlines a 10 year planning guide which includes different “departments” such as work, home and social.
So Lou Holtz wrote down on paper 107 goals that he wanted to accomplish in his life.
His goals included things such as appearing on The Tonight Show and having dinner at the White House.
His life changes after making that list.
To my knowledge, out of that 107, he accomplished 102.
Pretty amazing stuff!
So write down your goals and take charge of your life. I might also add that you need a special ingredient called DETERMINATION, for without it your goals list is only a “wish” list.
The millionaire mindset is really a different way of thinking. Follow these tips and you will surely be another step closer to your dreams.
Be Unstoppable!

I certainly agree with your tips!! All one has to do is works with them and stay focused. I myself have been doing just that and out popped a book!! My book reveals the power of thoughts and my constant battle to stay focused with a “PMA” I first had to discover my awareness of how i had been creating my life from the start. Awareness is key for me!!
I am finally growing and coming into more of who i truly am as a divine source of creative energy!
Thanks!

Thanks for the comment and congratulation on your book Linda!!! Staying focused is the key that will unlock the door to any accomplishment.
I’m glad you discovered that awareness is also the key for you. Being aware of who and what you are is so important and is actually the first step in the process. Then you can successfully identify what changes you need to make in your physical, mental and emotional state and take the steps necessary to grow.
Thanks again for commenting here!
