Your New Business Launch In 30 Days

Day Three – Your Attitude to Money

Can you shout out loud …

“I WANT TONS OF YUMMY PROFIT”

Go on then … I dare you! Go on … do it NOW!

 

Now shout …

“I WANT TO BE RICH … I WANT LOADS OF MONEY”

 

If you are in any way embarrassed to do that, to admit to yourself that you want to earn shed loads of money, go on lots of nice holidays and all the good things that onlu having tons of money brings you, then you really must get over it and get your head sorted out!

You must really want wealth and money and have a vision that you can and will attain it, but you also must accept it won’t magically come to you. Accept that it will be truly hard graft that will totally change your life as you know it.

 

” Your job in business is to make as much money as you possibly can in a fair and ethical way.”

 

So, what’s your view on money? On the people who are exceedingly rich?

Unfortunately most of us have been brainwashed from an early age into thinking that those with money are greedy or dishonest, they are fat cats, creaming off tons of profit from poor defenceless consumers who they have conned out of their hard earned pensions, leaving the elderly and infirm homeless and in a cardboard box out on the streets, just so they can waltz round in their expensive suits and drive nice cars, right?

Some people even go one step further and quote the Bible, saying “The Bible says that money is the root of all evil.” Actually the Bible says “The LOVE of money is the root of all evil” and since entrepreneurs don’t think about money with any emotion attached to it at all, then that argument is totally invalid. But that’s beside the point.

I saw an amazing quote a few years ago and put it up on my wall. It goes like this:

“Average people think MONEY is the root of all evil. Rich people believe POVERTY is the root of all evil.” Steve Siebold

Isn’t that just incredible? I mean, isn’t that just a massive WOW moment? This is the way you should be thinking to become mega successful! You need to be thinking about making money all the time, and thinking about what you can implement in your business to make more money. As a business owner, you deserve to receive high rewards for taking the huge risks that the employed population simply don’t take.

And if you think business owners are fat cats, don’t forget:

1) Business owners create jobs

2) Business owners make countries richer through taxes

3) Entrepreneurs create wealth, and often set up charities and funds for worthwhile causes that are close to them

4) Wealth is the reward you earn for all the risks you take in business.

5) Wealthy business owners reduce unemployment and dependency on the welfare state

6) Wealthy people support the elderly, the infirm, children, the disabled etc through benefits

 

Here are some more facts about wealthy people for you:

1) Actions are what will make you rich. We can all think about doing things, but actions are really all that matter.

2) Very few people are a born genius in business. The huge majority of successful people in business have had a steep learning curve, just like you, but they have fought and fought for their riches. Many have gone bankrupt several times, but have grown and learned from the experience each time.

3) Rich people think about the future, poor people think about the past

4) Rich people think about how they can add to their fortune every minute of every day – and they know that doesn’t make them bad people

5) Wealthy people think about money without any emotional connection at all.

6) Rich people are not afraid to spend other people’s money

7) Rich people never stop learning

8) Wealthy people surround themselves with like minded people and won’t let anyone shatter their dreams

9) Rich people know you deserve it all, and, with work, they also know that you can actually have it all too.

If this is you, congratulations. If you are now happy to shout from the roof tops …”I want to be rich then well done to you.

Today we have looked in depth at you and your relationship with money. We have talked about you for a couple of days now. And with good reason.

When I started out in business, I was really embarrassed with my prices, I was embarrassed to ask for money, I was embarrassed to put my hand out and say “OK I have done the work, now pay me.” I was even embarrassed to chase people who owed me money for fear of upsetting them! This led to massive difficulties in the early days, and almost made me go bust  even before I got on my feet, but ensuring you have got your head screwed on properly in relation to money is possibly the biggest single factor to your success.

Reminding yourself that you deserve the huge amount of money you are / will be earning is vital. Remembering that huge amounts of profit is not just a luxury but is, in fact, essential to business, but also that you have gained that money in a “fair and ethical way” will really help put you on solid ground.

Now the hard work begins!
