Learn how to get rich by changing your concepts about money and adopting the habits of successful people.
“T. Harv Eker demystifies why some people are destined for wealth and others for a life of hardship. If you want to know the fundamental causes of success, read this book.” – Robert G. Allen, author of Becoming a millionaire in one minute.
If your finances are on shaky ground, perhaps it's time to reflect on what T. Harv Eker calls "your money blueprint"—a set of beliefs that each of us cultivates from childhood and that shapes our financial destiny, almost always leading us to a difficult situation.
In this book, Eker shows how to replace a destructive mindset—one you may not even realize you have—with "wealth files," 17 ways of thinking and acting that distinguish the rich from everyone else. Some of these fundamental principles are:
• Either you control your money, or it will control you.
• The habit of managing finances is more important than the amount of money you have.
• Your motivation for getting rich is crucial: if it has a negative root, such as fear, anger, or the need to prove something to yourself, money will never bring you happiness.
• The secret to success is not trying to avoid problems or get rid of them, but growing personally to become bigger than any adversity.
• Excessive spending has little to do with what you're buying and everything to do with a lack of satisfaction in your life.
The author also teaches an efficient method for managing money. You will learn to base your compensation on the results you deliver, not the hours you work. Furthermore, you will learn how to increase your net worth – the true measure of wealth.
The idea is to make your money work for you as much as you work for it. To do this, it's necessary to save and invest instead of spending. "Getting rich isn't just about becoming wealthy in financial terms," says Eker. "It's more than that: it's about the person you become to achieve that goal."“
