Seven Mental Models That Will Make You Wealthy

you are the sum of your habits.
Successful people understand this.
They know that your habits define you.
They shape you in ways that you may not realize.
These are the 7 Metal Models I personally use to program my mind for financial success.
It all comes down to your expectations.
Wealthy people expect to be wealthy.
Unlucky people expect the opposite.
Do you really believe that one day you will be able to become wealthy? You should.
This is the first step.
Everything Comes Down to Frame
It explains how success/self-image are linked.
You are defined by your mental portrait.
This portrait is a combination of past experiences/feelings.
This image is the foundation of our personality.
If you believe that wealth will elude you, it will.
Growth Mindset is the idea that you can develop your own abilities. It is the belief in change.
And when you believe in change,
You will enter a world of possibilities.
Your confidence will improve.
You will seek out opportunities to gain experience.
Experience = Growth
Life will begin to look like an adventure.
Embrace change.
Anyone with debt is a slave to the banking industry.
I know colleagues that paid 200K for a college degree and are paying it off in their 40s.
They live in everyday life in fear, just like prisoners.
This is no way for a man to live.
I am not saying to avoid all debt. But be smart about it. Understand you need to pay it off quickly.
Once you pay off all your debts.
Your mind will change for the better.
It will become free.
You will sleep better at night.
You will never have enough when you look at what you own. Society is built to leave you wanting more.
It's a Trap.
Instead, compare yourself to those who are poorer.
Your lifestyle will seem a lot richer.
Wealth is all about perspective.
It is a journal of his thoughts.
Think like a Roman Emperor.
Train your mind to focus on what you can control.

I think life like it's a video game.
I apply this same concept to wealth.
Try this thought experiment.
What if life were an actual RPG?
Would your stats be when it comes to money?
Knowledge 81
Vision 90
Work Ethic 60
Salesmanship 45
Complete quests (adventures) to gain experience.
Start taking some Real Life Quests. NOW
Start a side hustle.
Start a business.
Learn how to create value.
It's all up to you.
What you do, becomes who you are.
You can spend $500 on a PS5 or you can purchase the Agency Course (for much less). Build an empire.
Use your time and energy to level up in real life.
Not virtual.

Distance yourself from advertising.
“Throw your TV out the window.” - @robertgriker
Advertising shifts our perception (without you even knowing). It is designed to do that.
Ad executives are trained psychologists.
They know exactly what buttons to push.
Everyone buys more than they need.
Why? Because they have been programmed to do so.
Trillions are spent to make you adopt a lifestyle of consumption. That is why most are broke.
They are programmed to be broke.
There is a reason why TV is free.
“Keeping up with the Joneses” is a dangerous mentality.
I literally know people who take out loans, to take out more loans. Limit your time spent with the Joneses.
Instead, keep friends that have the same mentality of building toward wealth.

Christine spoke about honoring your pastors even when they weren’t great, she spoke of us expecting too much of pastors and how wrong that was. She said God would use our testimony if we submitted to our pastors.

She said “honor your pastors, God will honor you.” She said more about having disagreed with her pastors but she submitted and God honored her and now she’s blessed. How if they are faithfully serving God, we need to support them and not forfeit what God has for us.

There are many reasons why the unfolding news of Ravi Zacharias\u2019 abuse is enraging. But for me, there\u2019s one other piece. The women he chose to abuse were young, massage therapists, ethnic minorities, likely women who were not in positions of power or education.

1/“What would need to be true for you to….X”
Why is this the most powerful question you can ask when attempting to reach an agreement with another human being or organization?
A thread, co-written by @deanmbrody:
2/ First, “X” could be lots of things. Examples: What would need to be true for you to
- “Feel it's in our best interest for me to be CMO"
- “Feel that we’re in a good place as a company”
- “Feel that we’re on the same page”
- “Feel that we both got what we wanted from this deal
3/ Normally, we aren’t that direct. Example from startup/VC land:
Founders leave VC meetings thinking that every VC will invest, but they rarely do.
Worse over, the founders don’t know what they need to do in order to be fundable.
4/ So why should you ask the magic Q?
To get clarity.
You want to know where you stand, and what it takes to get what you want in a way that also gets them what they want.
It also holds them (mentally) accountable once the thing they need becomes true.
5/ Staying in the context of soliciting investors, the question is “what would need to be true for you to want to invest (or partner with us on this journey, etc)?”
Multiple responses to this question are likely to deliver a positive result.
