Your Greatest Asset: Your Mind

Happy CNY! It's now officially the Year of the Rat! How's everyone's CNY celebrations coming along? Hope all's great with the visiting and catching up with relatives.

In my previous post, I mentioned about the mindset of self-made millionaires. I strongly believe that a person's mind is one of his greatest asset. It is something that everyone is given at birth so there is no discrimination. Everyone is given the same mind at birth. It is through the different experiences, training and exposure that a person will shape his thought-process and it is exactly this thought-process that is so very important in the search for wealth. Think about it, no two persons will see the world in exactly the same way. Although they can be looking at the same thing, what they see in their minds are different.

In order to achieve financial success, you will need to adopt the mindset and habits of individuals who have achieved financial success. It makes sense, doesn't it? Like for you to be able to drive a car, you need to learn from someone who knows how to drive a car. There is so much to know about the millionaire mindset. The way they see the world is totally different from the ordinary person. The way they think and their entire thought-process is totally different from the guy next door.

Napolean Hill wrote at length about the power of the subconscious mind in his book, Think and Grow Rich. He mentioned that the subconscious mind is so powerful that, if properly conditioned, can be the source of immense wealth. It will begin to attract money to the person who has that mind. That is not to be literally of course. It simply means that the person will begin to see money-making opportunities that other people who not even notice. He wrote "All impulses of thought have a tendency to clothe themselves in their physical equivalent". So if you can condition your mind to see the money-making opportunities around you, money will naturally flow towards you. You can read more about the book here.

Adam Khoo also mentioned the millionaire mindset in his book The Secrets of Self-Made Millionaires. In fact it is one of his 7 essential steps of financial success. You can learn more about his book and the 7 essential steps here.
