but i have to tell you the number one
thing
that keeps people from really having
what they want financially
is not the lack of a plan it is not the
lack of good advice
it is not the lack of possibility it's
not the lack of intelligence
it's not even lack of capital it is this
unending process that most americans go
through
of sabotaging their own financial
success
so why do we do this to ourselves why is
it that right when we start to really
make financial progress we do something
stupid or we stop following through
we stop practicing the fundamentals we
know will lead us
to financial abundance i believe the
answer is what we talked about yesterday
and let's review it
everything we do in our lives we do for
one of two reasons to either avoid
pain or to gain pleasure if you are
sabotaging yourself in any area and
we're going to talk about this again and
again
it is simply because you believe at some
level of your thinking
subconscious thinking if not conscious
thinking that this situation that you're
getting involved in
the accumulation of additional capital
is going to lead to more pain than
pleasure
and again i know that sounds insane and
crazy but i have to tell you it's
absolutely accurate in any person that
i've studied who's been living in
financial lack
in addition many people associate
pleasure to having a lack of financial
abundance
because see think about it when people
really do well financially and they're
around their friends
what happens well i can tell you from
experience when i was really young i
really went for it 19 years old had my
own company written up in newspapers and
magazines
wonderboy you remember me right ego
exploding well sure enough i was making
all this money about ten thousand
dollars a month i was jazzed
except i thought money was going to lead
to pleasure
i looked around and saw the problems in
my family said hey if i got money i can
eliminate those and i get a lot more fun
i can give to my friends and i'd go back
to my friends i want to take them with
me on a trip
or want to go someplace and they were
uncomfortable
in fact a lot of them started to judge
me and all of a sudden some of them
treated me harshly and some of them made
excuses some of them stopped going out
to dinner with me
some would say well you know i don't
have a home like yours and i said i
don't care
but what began to happen is i began to
link that having money didn't mean the
pleasure i thought it was going to mean
my brain started linking up having a lot
of money means that people reject you
people you care about aren't comfortable
with you all of a sudden i started
feeling like an outcast all of a sudden
i started feeling all this pain
and sure enough within a short period of
time my brain on some level not
consciously but
subconsciously began to just destroy
everything economically
and i already told you how i did it not
showing up for key meetings right
treating people harshly
distracting myself to eating food
continuously watching television
all those elements came up to destroy my
finances
and so we must remember how our brains
work
they don't work logically they work on
what we associate to things
so if we're going to eliminate financial
self-sabotage the answer is very simple
you've heard it over and over again
and again you'll hear it from me and
that is we must change
our neural associations about money that
is we've got to change some of our core
beliefs we've got to make sure that
earning money
is purely a positive and pleasurable
experience for us
and not one in our mind that's going to
lead to pain again
some people think god i'll have to pay
all these taxes and they don't have the
money and they're worrying about the
problem no wonder they'll never have any
why are they already
considering the negative aspects of
having money the answer i believe
is that for most people having an
abundance of money
is the unknown in its experience they've
never had before
and people are basically afraid of the
unknown see they know how it is right
now they understand it they understand
the status quo
and that's fairly comfortable i mean you
might have a little bit of pain but
the unknown that's really scary so i've
found that most people
fail to achieve what they want
financially or sabotage themselves
financially
simply because they haven't gotten
themselves ready for wealth financial
wealth
they've not conditioned themselves
emotionally to have money
they've not developed the kinds of
beliefs that would allow them to create
an abundance of money
and then continually expand that money
as well
you remember the metaphor we talked
about and we started this program
that what we have to do to really
succeed we have to build up our ability
we have to condition ourselves just as
we would physically
and you start with a little bit and you
begin to work with it each day
increasing the amounts
until pretty soon what happens is you
really develop the muscle but you've got
to be able to use it you've got to
condition your arms for example
to be able to do curls well you're gonna
have to condition your mind and your
emotions
in order to be able to have an abundance
of money and feel comfortable with it
otherwise even though it's something
that's very positive it may feel like a
weight to you because you just don't
know how to deal with it
so how do we first get beyond this sense
of lack how do we first begin
to create that wealth and then how do we
keep ourselves from destroying it once
the abundance starts to flow
the way to really create the wealth that
you want in your life starts with step
number one
the way to get wealthy right now today
is to free yourself from the illusion
that you're not already wealthy
you say what are you talking about tony
i don't have any money
listen wealth is not just money wealth
is an abundance of the things that you
really desire in your life
wealth is leverage that is the ability
to have experiences that you have not
personally controlled or generated what
do i mean
well you are wealthy you live in a
country where there is abundance around
you all the time and you own it just for
living here
i mean you own the public highways you
don't have to pay anything for most of
them across the country
you own many of these government
buildings you can go in they're yours
you can use them anytime you want you
can go into a public library and get
access to any book that's ever been
written virtually
and it cost you nothing think about it
leverage in your life is everywhere you
didn't have to go out
and actually create your breakfast nor
did you have to hunt down your dinner
these things have been done for you say
well yes i paid for them yeah that's
true and it wasn't
on your back that the salt came out of
minds so that you could put it on your
food
you are truly wealthy the level of
abundance that you and i experience
every single day no matter how much
money we earn compared to the rest of
the world
is absolutely absurd and yet we walk
around
feeling like we have lack and see like
attracts like
whatever you hold on a consistent basis
in your mind is exactly what you'll
experience in your life
so the first key to becoming wealthy is
to understand that you already are
now wanting to expand that i believe
that's healthy you know
some people say well is it really right
to make more money i mean if you got a
lot is it right
let me ask you a question if you're
intelligent is it right for you to
continue to want to expand and become
smarter
is it right if you're already close to
your husband or wife
to want to deepen that relationship even
more
is it right for you to want your
children to have even more to be happier
to be stronger
to have better relationships is that
right
is it right no matter how close you feel
to your creator to want that bond to be
even stronger and to strive for it is
that right
i've got a question for you if you could
have more in your life
if you could have more than should you
if there are things you could do that
create greater abundance in any area of
your life
then should you and my answer to you is
absolutely i think i shared with you
earlier in this program
that there was a point in my life where
i thought gosh if i have so much
abundance and other people don't
there's something wrong there that's
unfair hey listen every single one of us
was born with opportunities we're equal
in our opportunities
we're not equal in our decisions we're
not equal in our education
we're not equal and how much we demand
from each other or from ourselves
we're not equal in our motivation we
could choose to be but most of us are
not
now i know there's the argument that hey
i grew up in the south bronx so i grew
up in a difficult part of town or i
didn't have the role models
i can certainly appreciate that a
hundred percent i really do believe that
there are many people in our society
that don't seem to start out with the
same level of resources no doubt about
it
so my approach to that used to be well i
really care about people that i have
less than i do i care about people that
are poor financially
in fact my strategy was the best way to
help poor people is i'll be one of them
well that's not exactly the most
intelligent approach instead what i
decided to do
was realize that no matter what
someone's resources were i didn't have
any either
i didn't have any great role models i
didn't grow up wealthy not even middle
class
and yet i was able to make the things
work because i pursued them
and no matter where i've looked in the
country no matter how horrible the
environment there are a few people from
that environment
that somehow have made it work for
themselves mentally emotionally socially
spiritually physically
and financially so why did these people
make it in spite of all the odds
the answer was not necessarily more
talent or more ability
but that they were able to get access to
their talent and ability because they
had beliefs that empowered them
in each of these areas including
financial i mean that's really what it
comes down to
your finances will not change until your
core beliefs change
trying to turn around financial sabotage
simply by working harder by the way
will not work the reason is you'll work
harder and your beliefs like this rubber
band
you'll push push push push stretch
yourself out there it'll start to make
some progress and right when you get to
a certain point of threshold
ymo the rubber band snaps you right back
to where you were
i mean haven't you experienced this
sometimes the only way to break through
is get rid of the rubber bands expand
your picture of your life financially
so that what's happening is you're on a
road a road you're always building
one that's always expanding in addition
you must believe
that by building your road what you're
also doing is creating a way for others
to travel to their dreams as well
simultaneously so since it starts with
our own beliefs
we gotta remind ourselves what beliefs
are beliefs are
nothing but a feeling of certainty about
what something means
so again if you've got limiting beliefs
it just means you've got beliefs you
have a feeling of certainty
that having money is going to be more
painful than not having it
that having an abundance of money is
going to be more painful than not having
an abundance yeah you can get
by and it'll be okay you've got to
change that
how do we do it well one the easiest way
to change anything
is to link pain to the thing we want to
change in other words
link in our own minds that if i don't
change this belief system it's going to
cost me
so much it's going to hurt so bad
that your brain says i'll do anything to
get rid of that belief and then show
your brain an alternative one that by
applying it you'll have pleasure
now what most people do in life is sit
around and hope that someday something
magical will turn it around
or again they go out and just work
harder and harder and harder
and they wonder why they still can't
make it financially no matter how much
money they make
they always end up with more month at
the end of the money
maybe i was one of the lucky ones maybe
i just have a low threshold for pain
because i just couldn't take it i found
so much frustration and not being able
to go certain places not being able
to be with certain people who are
traveling not being able to give some of
the things i really wanted to give most
of the people i cared about
not being able to have the lifestyle and
the freedom of choice in terms of my
time and my energy
and the things that i was going to have
in my life as well it was so
painful so embarrassing so frustrating
that finally one day i said i have had
it
and that is a great place to get get to
the place where you've had it where
you've gone through threshold where
you're not willing to do that anymore
but here's the key when you realize
you've got it know what the reason is
it's because of your beliefs and you
need to go inside and shift them now
so how do we do this i'm going to guide
you through a three or four step process
right now to eliminate self-sabotage in
the area of finances forever
so let's go for it get your success
journal or pull over the car now
this is the time as you pull it out
here's what we're gonna do and if you
need to stop the tape
and come back to me you have 30 seconds
go
welcome back i again hope i'm welcoming
you back and you did turn off this thing
while you went and got your success
journal you don't want to ride on a
scrap of piece of paper keep that thing
with you
okay good now here's what i'd like you
to do i'd like if you would to
write down all of the pain that you
presently experience in your life
because you don't have the level of
financial abundance that you truly
deserve
in other words what are you losing right
now what are you missing out on
what's it costing in your life not to
have financial abundance in other words
our goal here
is to not just be intellectual but to
really get ourselves to experience
once and for all tremendous amount of
pain from not having finances so
really go into your gut go into your
core and say okay what are things i
really want to do
or be or share or create or give
or make that i cannot do right now
because i don't have financial abundance
i've got enough finances to get by or
i've gotta
you know i'm maybe even worse you're
comfortable that's really a death rattle
in terms of finances
but what are some of the things beyond
that that you're missing out on maybe
just the self-esteem of knowing
that you can create as much as you want
in an instant what is it that you're
missing out on
i'm gonna give you about two and a half
minutes to do this so please begin
now
remember while you're doing this make it
compelling
what are some things you'd really like
to do in your life that you can't do
think about how much pain that could
generate if you really focused on that
enough
normally you don't pay attention
do you ever have to say someday honey
will do that
how does that make you feel or someday
son
someday daughter yeah i'd really like to
do this but
we just can't do it right now maybe
later maybe sometime and yet in your
feeling in your gut you don't think
it'll ever happen
but some of the pain you experience
because you don't have
massive financial abundance
what's it costing you in your life what
could you do to develop yourself if you
had more money
and you're missing out on it now what
could you do for your favorite
foundation
or a favorite charity would you like to
buy something
is there somebody in your family who's
suffering right now financially
and you're unable to help them how does
that make you feel
no you don't have the money to help them
someone need medical care do you like to
be able to purchase a nicer home or
something like that for
family members a mom or a dad i'd like
to take better care of your grandparents
but can't because you just don't have
the financial abundance
is there a school you like to send your
children to but you just can't
again because there isn't enough money
what are some of the prices you pay
every single day because you don't have
enough money what are some of the things
you really want
but you've had to settle for second best
because you didn't have financial
abundance
is there a studio you'd like to build
you can't do that so you got to go
somewhere else
are you having to live in a neighborhood
that is not supportive of your own
values
simply because of economic necessity how
does that make you feel
knowing that you have to do that
make sure as you write these down you
really feel the pain i know that doesn't
sound very nice
but the way we change is link pain to
something get it out on the table
okay so what we've done here if you
we've done it effectively
is gotten your brain to begin to
associate
major pain to not having money now you
might say well tony i already had that
well maybe
but maybe it was like you had one
thought at a time what we want to do is
intensify the feeling of pain
so your brain will finally say i've had
it no more i've got to have money
so what's on your list is it compelling
enough when i have people do this many
times they'll tell me things like well
gosh you know not having money means i
don't have time with my kids
or not having money means i can't live
with my son or daughter
or not having money means i can't get
them the kind of child care they really
deserve and i'm busy working too and i
don't know what to do
that's pretty strong pain that'll get
somebody motivated real quick
remember we'll do more to avoid pain
than we will to gain pleasure so put it
on yourself
some people say just the pressure of the
bills themselves
that is so painful having people calling
you up again and again saying hey
you've got to handle this thing that
does it for some people by itself
or maybe in this society where one out
of two people end up in divorce
some people are having to support two
households and they think about the pain
they have
in that they can't have the lifestyle
they want because they can barely take
care of themselves after taking care of
somebody else
for other people saying you know i can't
do it or i'll do it later
but knowing in their heart that later
may never come
that's pain or maybe for you it's just
the pain of knowing somebody who really
deserves
help and you just can't do it because
you don't have the money
or maybe it's the inability to travel or
visit the places you'd really like to or
maybe visit some people
i know some people have made on their
list things like i just don't have the
money even go visit
the grandparents who are about to pass
away i know i need to be there but i
just can't
because i'm busy and i have to keep
working or because i don't have the
money to even get there
again this is not negative this is the
most positive thing you can do to
yourself
creating pressure on yourself massive
pressure
where not having money hurts will make
your brain
want to change that's the only way
you'll get rid of the sabotage does that
make sense
so let's go to the second stage the
second stage is let's just find out what
you think of when you think about money
itself
so now i'm going to give you about 60
seconds but in these 60 seconds what i'd
like you to do
is back in your success journal just
write down
anything you think of that you associate
to money if i say to you
money or a lot of money i want you to
write down
what pops up in your head just write
down singular words that you associate
to money
so you've got 60 seconds please begin
now go for it
okay time so what's on your list
well i'm not sure what's on yours but i
decided to try this with the engineer
here in the studio
and he came up with some things like
this he said that he has freedom
he associates to money time with loved
ones associates to money less stress
less bills safety and stress reduction
in the form of entertainment
somebody else here has on their list
freedom of movement
security giving peace of mind
hard work the burden of responsibility
lifestyle wider social latitude
interesting what's on your list now when
you look at your list
is it mostly positive or mostly negative
what i found is when i have people do
this it depends on the individual but
oftentimes
i get a lot of positives you know most
these lists both these lists seem to be
primarily positive they think about
money and there's these positive things
they associate pleasure and you say tony
then why would somebody sabotage if they
only associate pleasure
well let's try another approach and dig
a little deeper into your brain let's
see
if all your associations really are
positive
here's what i'd like you to try for the
next two minutes
i want you to write down the things you
remember hearing growing up
about money in other words what were you
taught about money
both explicitly and implicitly
by what people told you like for example
in your family your mom your dad etc
what are some of the phrases you
remember hearing jot them down now you
have two minutes
beginning now
okay again time so my question is
do you notice any conflicts here well i
don't know what's on your list but
if i were to take the sampling i have
here in the studio it's rather
interesting
in the beginning here we have a person's
list where they say the associated money
freedom time with loved ones less stress
less bills more safety stress reduction
in the form of entertainment
but what was this person taught growing
up well
money is the root of all evil second
thing on their notes
money isn't everything person obviously
doesn't know where to shop
third one is no time to enjoy it
fourth when no no there's no time to
enjoy it time with loved ones
no time to enjoy it isn't that an
interesting conflict and we wonder why
we sabotage why we start to move towards
and then all of a sudden think there's
going to be pain here and we sabotage
ourselves
here's another sampling a person whose
notes said that they associated money
freedom of movement and security and
giving and peace of mind and hard work
and the burden of responsibility few
negatives there and lifestyle
this person has money doesn't grow on
trees how's that for conditioning you
for abundance
i'm not saying it does but that's
probably not the best frame to hold in
your mind
an ongoing basis secondly we can't
afford it interesting and that sentence
is still probably running through this
person's brain
there's the next one it costs too much
or it's too expensive
here's the next thing on this
gentleman's list take care of pennies
and the dollars will take care of
themselves now let me ask you a question
how do you feel about taking care of
pennies
does that like really create pleasure
for you you think your brain says oh man
i'm gonna take care of all these pennies
so i get a few dollars
whoa i highly doubt it
here's my point you want to know why
people are sabotaging
check out the massive contradictions
here on the one hand the person
associates to money primarily positive
experiences
yet on the other everything the person
was taught growing up
is it's going to be painful think about
that
that's why people experience approach
avoidance where they go out and start to
make some money
but only go so far before they limit
themselves like having a governor on
your car
you put your foot on the accelerator you
start going a certain pace
but that's the highest you're going to
go see that governor is all the things
you were taught in the past those old
beliefs
now how do we eradicate them again we
associate enough pain to them
think about it are you willing to pay
the price
the price you wrote down to start with
here the things you're going to miss out
on your life in order to keep these
measly ideas in your mind that somebody
dumped in without realizing the impact
maybe years ago
i doubt it
so in essence what we can do right now
we've got a lot of choices
one way to change your beliefs is use
what you already know
do a dickens pattern on yourself go back
to the tape we did that and just guide
yourself right through it we've begun it
already haven't we
we've got you to begin to associate some
major pain if you don't change
but i also need you to do is associate
some pleasure to the change
and that part should be pretty easy all
you have to do now and let's do it is
make a list of all the benefits you
would have all the things you would get
in your life all the ways your life
would be absolutely
totally enhanced if money was no longer
a question in your life if you had true
financial freedom and financial
abundance i'm going to give you 120
seconds
to write down as fast as you can how
your life would be greater and better
if money was no longer an issue in your
life in other words what would be all
the additional benefits
how would your life be greater how would
your life be better immediately
if right now you handled the financial
issue you have 120 seconds write it down
now
all right time again now take a good
look at your list
this should be a whole list of things
that as you think about them
imagine if all of these things you wrote
down were actually part of your regular
daily reality
how would that make you feel see our
whole goal is to get ourselves now to
link major pleasure to financial
abundance not financial sufficiency but
financial abundance we want to link
major pleasure to that and paying to not
having it
so how did you do did your list really
produce the result
i figured as long as we're doing this if
i'd use the people here in the studio as
an example
so let me show you what they've got
they've got gosh if i had all this
additional financial abundance
my credit cards paid off that may make
me feel great my car would be paid off
i'd go to the theater more i'd go to
movies i'd go to cultural events
as a result i'd be informed i'd feel
relaxed i'd feel
cultured and increase my self-esteem i
feel more
i'd have more humor in my life i'd feel
more articulate more balanced
i'd be able to make conversation more
easily there'd be less stress in my life
i'd be able to have more time with my
son another person's list says gosh if i
had financial abundance not just
financial sufficiency
i could finish my studio i'd buy a new
home i'd have more travel time
i'd be able to get in the music business
full time and just enjoy what i love
most i could be more generous i could
give without any concern for the future
i'd have no daily pressures from
financial obligations
think about how you'd feel if these
things are really true
so what is the main strategy for turning
ourselves around financially
simple answer you've heard it many times
again repetition being in the mother of
skill and you've heard that one a few
times too haven't you
but i want to remind you that our brain
moves away from pain and towards
pleasure
right now if you don't have enough money
it's because your brain links pain to
having it
in a major abundance at least not
sufficiency but a major abundance
and a certain amount of pleasure staying
where you are we want to reverse it
how are we reversing it one create
massive pain and associate that pain to
not having it
two create tremendous pleasure to having
it get it clear in your mind that
there's a carrot and a stick and they're
going to drive you forward financially
and you'll see the financial
self-sabotage disappear from your life
now we need to go step beyond we've now
got the beliefs that work but that's not
enough by itself
got to go beyond just eliminating the
negative beliefs and by the way
one way to get rid of some of these old
beliefs that used to stop you as well
is to ridicule them see if you take
anything you've heard or said to
yourself
and all you do is say it over and over
again in a unique new way you create a
new anchor
in other words that's what advertisers
did right winston tastes good like a
winston tastes good like a winston
tastes good like a
how do you spell relief is r-o-l-a-a-s
r-o-l-a-i-d-s r-o-l-a-i-d-s and you
heard over and over again so that's what
you linked
simple anchoring so what you could do is
attach to those old phrases new beliefs
so that when your mind says money
doesn't grow on trees you say that's
absolutely right it grows
out of the positive ideas that i follow
through on every single day of my life
if you do that over and over again
pretty soon money doesn't grow on trees
won't have the negative
impact does that make sense i know that
sounds so simple
i'm sorry to help you to be free in an
easy way i guess we could make it
tougher
but that's all it really takes all
you've got to do is
identify what used to stop you destroy
it eliminate it or get it to trigger
something more positive
have you got one here that says
something like money isn't everything
say
for people who don't know where to shop
have some fun get yourself to giggle or
laugh
all you have to do is get these beliefs
to have less
heaviness to them less control over you
ridicule them play with them
and that's going to be one of your
exercises in fact it may be useful for
you to do that now
to go through right now and do things to
these beliefs to either make them
trigger a new empowering belief
or to ridicule them to the point where
they no longer affect you to where you
would think of them every time you
thought of
money isn't everything you begin to
smile think of that funny phrase well
you don't know where to shop
in other words it's not true what i'm
saying is not true
all it is is taking away a limitation
does that make sense
let's try it let's stop one last thing
you're giving me a lot of exercises
today
that's true but this is an issue it's
time to just get over and move on so you
can have the kind of abundance here that
you also
have and are continually developing your
relationships and in your business
and your spirituality and your emotion
and your energy and your life
go for it what i want you to do
specifically is the following
take out your success journal go through
each of those
limiting beliefs any any limiting
beliefs in other words remember we said
write down anything you used to hear
growing up about money any of them that
would be a limitation
and change the belief another attach a
new belief to it just the way we did
here monday doesn't grow on trees
that's right because it grows out of the
ideas that i generate every day and
follow through on that create good for
myself and other people
and just say it over and over again to
pretty soon you begin to link it or
maybe something simpler than that
complicated phrase i came up with
let's take another one as an example
let's say growing up you continually
hurt it's too expensive it's too
expensive now that's part of you
you say you're absolutely right it used
to be too expensive but now it's an
investment in my joy
you get the idea now you may say well
gosh this is really hard
so is not having any money you deserve
financial abundance right now get
creative and go through each of the
negative phrases or beliefs
and find a way to either counteract them
or attach something to them that will
empower you
please take the time to do this one
right now let's just eradicate these
beliefs
do it now okay time is up
so let's continue here with the people
in studio and see how they've done this
gentleman's list used to say money is
the root of all evil now it says
in the wrong hands money is the root of
all evil but i am a responsible
and sensitive person very nice
next one is money isn't everything but
added to my other qualities it'll do a
lot of good for me and those i really
care about
fabulous here's another example money
doesn't grow on trees
but it grows out of my acting on my
creative ideas
i can't afford it we can't afford not to
expand our financial resources
and share them with others as well
take care of the pennies and the dollars
will take care of themselves
if i take care of the pennies my focus
is way too narrow
if i take care of the opportunities that
exist around me right now and give great
service
the dollars will multiply massively
i have no time to enjoy money i have had
no time to enjoy money in the past but
i'm now learning to delegate and i'm
working
smarter every day these are fabulous
examples
that's what you need to do for yourself
as well free yourself from your old
beliefs
finally on today's lesson let's take a
look at what are some of the specific
empowering beliefs
that you might want to add to your
repertoire now not just to get beyond
financial self sabotage
but to really ensure financial freedom
here are a few of the beliefs that i've
modeled from people that are extremely
successful financially
and some of my own that have really
assisted me as well number one
money is nothing but a measure of the
value that i create for other people
the more i give to others the more money
i receive on an
ongoing and consistent basis number two
my belief is in order to become wealthy
i need only two things
one every single day live in an attitude
of gratitude that is
feel incredibly grateful for the wealth
that i already have in my life and my
friends and my family
and the environment and where i live and
my work
and everything around me see a sense of
possibility and feel the abundance that
is my
life that will create more wealth
without me doing anything else
like attracts light water seeks its own
level you've heard these phrases
burnt out as they may be over and over
again but they are true
in addition if you truly want to be
wealthy learn to consistently focus on
how to give
much more to others than you expect back
and by the way it's impossible
the more you give the more you're going
to receive
now you might say well tony this doesn't
work for me i tried it i tried it with
john smith you know what i did i gave
gave
dave gave me nothing well guess what
see it doesn't always come back from the
person you gave it to
sometimes they just take take take
you're right i have no argument with
that
but i'll tell you something you've got
to open your eyes you've got to start
paying attention because it's coming
back to you from somebody else somewhere
and if it hasn't already it's on its way
you got to trust you got to know that
that's true by living with those kinds
of beliefs you will attract the kind of
wealth that you deserve
how do you make certain that you develop
in your life besides eliminating the
sabotage you do what we talked about on
the seven wealth wounds
an abbreviated look of that might look
something like this one
decide exactly what you want financially
in terms of abundance remember we talked
about developing a number that was going
to be a must for you
not financial sufficiency but true
financial
abundance more than enough avalanches of
abundance that's what we're talking
about
make a decision because you got to
remember whatever you focus on
consistently you will get
so if you're always focusing on getting
by or how to pay your bills that's what
you get
if you focus on massive abundance that's
what you'll have too and as long as
in your mind now having massive
abundance is something good
having massive abundance is not negative
it's not guilt it's not
problems it's not pain it is pleasure
to be and do and create at the level
that you are as a spiritual and
successful human being
two daily condition your mind for wealth
so that your brain is looking for
opportunities to succeed financially
remember the metaphor we talked about we
talked about setting goals where you buy
a car
you buy a particular outfit and once you
have it all of a sudden everywhere
you start noticing everybody who has
that car noticing that outfit
well there's a part of your brain called
the reticular activating system
it's the part of your brain that
determines what you pay attention to
you recall earlier we said human beings
are deletion creatures
that we don't pay attention to most of
what's going on around us
we only pay attention to a small band of
our experience
our goals our mental conditioning tells
the ras
the reticular activating system what to
pay attention to the ras is like a
policeman
it determines what's going to get
through to your conscious awareness and
what's going to be screened out
so when you daily decide what you want
and condition yourself to look for
opportunity it's like all of a sudden
you see that car everywhere
all of a sudden you see those clothes
everywhere all of a sudden you will see
places that cash in financially
when you've now made the decision to
condition your mind to attract wealth
how can you do it well for years i
started using
affirmation for myself now you might say
well didn't you say affirmations aren't
that great
no i said that you've got to make sure
that if you're going to use an
affirmation you do it with some real
physiology that you really change your
state
and i basically i read all kinds of
books on attracting wealth and i found
this in one of those books and i really
liked it
and so i said it over and over again but
again saying an affirmation means
nothing unless you generate feeling
and before i give you this affirmation i
want you to know that it's not meant to
be religious in any way
i do want you to know that i do believe
in a creator i call it god you may call
that something else and that's fine
but i believe that you and i have this
privilege called
life because something or someone has
given it to us something greater than
our conscious awareness
and when people tell me well i don't
believe in a god i'm an atheist
my view to them is i like to ask them a
question i said so you're trying to say
to me that everything we see
the earth the plants our environment
this solar system this universe that all
works with absolute precision is all the
result of things just falling together
that's like saying webster's dictionary
is the result of an explosion in a print
factory
come on there's got to be something more
but let me just tell you how i condition
my mind for wealth i believe that we can
tap
in we can attract more in our lives when
we connect
ourselves mentally and condition
ourselves for that abundance so what i
say to myself is this
god's wealth is circulating in my life
his wealth flows to me and avalanches of
abundance
all my needs desires and goals are met
instantaneously
for i am one with god and god is
everything
and i would say this to myself over and
over and over and over again
i would go run down the beach for a
couple of miles saying this to myself
with all the intensity of feeling i
could generate
that's one of the major reasons i
believe that in 12 months i went from
totally broke
to a million dollar net worth because i
didn't just hope
i created a level of certainty in my
body
that total financial abundance was a
part of every cell every thought every
feeling and things began to
jump out at me and i began to attract
them now that may sound real
metaphysical it may sound weird to you
but anyone that i've met who has created
great financial abundance has not only
decided what they want
but they've begun to condition
themselves daily to have that level of
abundance where it felt
right for them and that's what i did
with myself i offer you the opportunity
if it's worthwhile for you or you can
correct it change the language so it
works for you
but please condition yourself for the
abundance you deserve
step three get some role models find out
what to do and get yourself a great
vehicle
one way to get a vehicle sit down and
write down what is it you love to do
most in the world to see i think
financial abundance comes from doing
what you love
most doing it massively and making sure
that in your doing it it creates
tremendous value for other people
if you do those things effectively
you're going to have financial abundance
so if you're looking for a vehicle what
do you love to do most number one
number two how could you do it in a way
where other people would benefit and be
willing to make an investment
to take part in something that you love
i mean that's what i've had the good
fortune of doing by asking that question
question three is how could you do it
massively so you could reach tons of
people and make a major difference and
hopefully get paid well in the process
and then fourthly how could you do it
intelligently so that once you've done
all the stuff and you've worked so hard
and you've helped those people there's
something called profit when you're done
there are lots of possibilities for
vehicles and there are lots of models if
you already want to stay right where you
are
and do very well financially again call
or write us we'll teach you some models
come to our seminars or find
somebody who you respect locally and
model them or go to somebody else's
program whatever it takes
please get yourself a model that's how
you'll know what to do
four make sure that on an ongoing basis
you experience yourself as a giver and i
save this for last because i want you to
remember this
i believe that the bottom line of
financial success
comes from your believing in your gut
that you deserve
everything that you've got in your life
now that may sound egotistical
but the reality is you got to feel like
you deserve it or it won't stay you
won't attract it
my way of generating that i deserved it
came in many ways number one i deserve
it because i'm alive
just as much as i deserve to grow
mentally emotionally in my relationships
and my intellect all those things i
think i deserve to grow so why would
finances be any different
in addition i deserve it because i'm a
giver because i
always strive to give much more than i
would expect back
these tapes are an example i hope you
can feel i'm trying to give you ten
thousand percent of myself at each and
every time here
i'm committed to having you get much
much more a hundred times more
a minimum of ten times more than you've
invested in this program
and i know for a fact if you've really
been listening it you agree with me
the bottom line is by knowing you're
always trying to give much more
you feel like whatever comes back yeah
hey i've earned it i deserve it and it's
great
now some people might say well you
shouldn't have to earn it you should
just accept it well that's a great
strategy too if that works for you do
whatever works
but make sure that you give see you got
to take at least 10
of what you earn and give it away
minimum
now some people say well tony when i
make more money then i'll give ten
percent who are you getting
what do you think is harder to give a
dime out of a dollar
or a hundred thousand out of a million
trust me
the hundred thousand will feel quite a
bit different than the dime out of the
dollar
if you don't develop the habits now you
certainly won't do it when the numbers
get bigger
listen go get yourself a book simple
book it's called the richest man in
babylon
it's by george clayson it's a very old
classic very small you can read it in a
short time
it's like a series of short stories
that'll teach you how to use money
through allegory
it'll teach you three basic principles
one it'll teach you no matter how much
money you make or don't make
take 10 of it and give it away
immediately why
it doesn't say this but this is what i
believe when you
give away a percentage of what you have
it teaches your subconscious mind that
there's more than enough
boy that's a great belief to install
because once it believes that
your subconscious mind will create that
reality in your life
it makes you feel like a giver and we
all deserve to have that feeling of
pleasure of being a giver and not a
taker
two it'll tell you to take 10 of what
you earn and use it to reduce your debts
pay off mastercharge visa arnold's
linoleum
whatever it takes and three take ten
percent
and save it up to invest no matter how
small it is you can't believe what some
of the investments are that are
available out there there are things
that take almost no money you could get
started with
and begin to build your wealth but make
sure you give and here's the fifth step
that i want you to take to really
condition yourself for wealth and move
to the next level
and that is create experiences with
money that create tremendous pleasure
and joy for yourself
and the people around you give to
yourself
be willing to really do that and watch
your financial picture change
in other words you can't expect to work
that hard make a lot of money
and then never get any pleasure out of
it just put it in cds or just invest it
or just give it away and never feel that
direct connection
of pleasure your brain won't do it
forever so you might take a certain
amount of your money and it's just mad
money
you're just going to go out and do
stupid fun things that maybe in the past
you used to make yourself wrong for
you're going to go play that's play
money and if you do that you can't
believe it will happen your brain will
go yeah let's make some more money we
can have some more play some more
pleasure
and it'll enhance your life in virtually
every way
remember if you have financial abundance
it's because you deserve it
if you've lived by your values and
you've truly given yourself
each day try to add major value to other
people's lives
and you've had a decent vehicle you will
develop financial abundance
you'll have financial access
now the challenge with that is what
people think when they hear excess is
too much but in this case you've got to
realize that your excess
is the result of you giving much more
than what's even shown up
it's a great score card for the value
you've added in other people's lives
and as a result you have even more on
your own as well there is no need to
create limits on yourself
let yourself grow well beyond your past
limits
and create the abundance you deserve
here's your assignment for today
you go i got another assignment why not
we're on a roll the last assignment is
this
as you turn the tape off let me give you
a 10-day challenge i know i've given you
some daily challenges
like your morning questions but just for
10 days
and start it today would you be willing
to take a minute or two
and begin to condition your mind for
financial possibility
by doing the following writing down
simply
three ideas on how to make money three
new ideas
either something that already exists
that you haven't been paying attention
to before
or a brand new idea a concept for a
service or a business or an investment
or a possibility or an invention
anything at all
and let me give you one caveat maybe a
bunch of your ideas won't be worthwhile
who cares how many ideas do you need
to be able to create financial abundance
one or two good ones that's it
and that's all you need is one so if you
did this for 10 days you'll have 30
ideas at the end of 10 days plus you'll
have done something
else you'll have established a
conditioned
mental pattern or habit of looking for
financial opportunity
and you certainly deserve that if you
keep looking you're liable to find
something and if you find something
you're liable to follow through and if
you follow through you're liable to make
some major money
and then you want to focus on money
you'll be able to just have that
abundance and be able to focus on
whatever you hold is most important now
so go for it
