How to Think Like a Millionaire  Condition:  New

I just finished reading How to Think Like a Millionaire by Mark Fisher and Marc Allen and my brain cells feel like a million dollars.

The common theme through all success stories is a positive inner attitude. The role of the subconscious mind can’t be stressed enogh.  In fact, as the authors point out:  It is responsible for an individual’s success or failure.  That’s why I love the title they chose for the book so much - How to THINK Like a Millionaire, because that’s where it begins.  In the think tank!

 

We are the creators of our own happiness or misery. - “How to Think Like a Millionaire” Page 28

The book details common obstacles and mental blocks that we all face at one time or another. Then it tells us, specifically, how we can turn these negative feelings and/or feedback into something positive that can HELP us get ahead rather than to continue holding us back.

How to Think Like a Millionaire is a small book, with just a little over 100 pages. But those 114 pages have the potential and power to change the reader’s life forever. Not only is the book relatively short, it’s written is such a way that makes for very fast reading. HOWEVER, I wouldn’t do that if I were you. I’d read it slowly, allowing every word to weave itself into your life’s fabric.

I began reading it weeks ago, but realized, from page one, that there was an overwhelming amount of great information, advice, and motivation. So much so that the authors even include a Summary and Recommended Action section at the end of each chapter as well as a three page Conclusion at the end. They want, very much, for the reader to “get it” and get it all.

The subconscious mind is best represented by the image of the iceberg: The small, visible part is the conscious mind while the submerged and much larger part is the subconscious. The role of the subconscious in our lives is much greater than most of us understand. It’s teh seat of our habits, complexes, and the limitations of our personalities. No matter what we think, the subconscious - not outside circumstances - is responsible for an individual’s success or failure. - How to Think Like a Millionaire Page 29

This was one of the easiest to read and most motivating books I’ve ever read. I’ve always known about the importance of the subconscious mind, but I never knew how much power we have over it. Once we take control of the wheel, we can pretty much steer it in any direction we want to. If that sounds, to you, like a trip worth taking, make the next ten minutes of your life ten of the most important ones ever. Click through the link and order your copy right away.

The belief that dreams are impossible to achieve prevents most people from getting what they want. Their experience certainly seems to support this belief. They get exactly what they expect from life: boredom, frustration, obstacles, and small incomes. People are what they believe themselves to be, no more, no less. - How to Think Like a Millionaire Page 75

Thanks, Leo. I honestly loved this book. My daughters and husband are all 4 very busy people - we could install a revolving door in our kitchen and it’d wear out inside of a week. People are always coming and going!

That’s why, even though I’m the essence of a book worm, I make sure I only recommend the best of the best for them to read. This book was one of the ones I told them all, “You HAVE to read this book.”

It’s changed the way I think about a lot of things, not just money. The authors have a way of making you feel like you can do anything, that the solution lies INSIDE of you rather than OUTSIDE.

Thanks for the kind words, they mean a lot!
