Attracting Wealth is Easy!
That's
right; attracting wealth is easy. Does this
statement shock or surprise you at all? The fact is,
getting rich doesn't have to be a long, difficult uphill
struggle. You can try to get wealthy the hard way, by
struggling and clawing in the "rat race,"
or you can do it the easy way, by focusing on wealth
and prosperity, and ignoring anything to the contrary.
A few years ago I would have laughed
out loud at the following paragraph. I probably would
have gone on a rant about how foolish and gullible some
people can be because they think attracting wealth is
a function of your mindset. At the time, I believed
that only arduous hard work could achieve any level
of wealth or success whatsoever. Boy was I wrong!
I realized one day that the hardest
working people I had ever met were dirt poor. Was this
just a coincidence? At the time I wasn't sure, but today
I can tell you without reservation that it is no coincidence.
Attracting wealth is not a function of how hard a person
works. If it were, I know hundreds of people who would
be billionaires.
Attracting
wealth is a mindset, and once you "have"
this mindset, your lot in life becomes easier and easier,
and money and financial opportunities present themselves
at every turn. So how do you develop the wealth mindset?
It's all a matter of perspective. The following story
will help to explain what I mean:
I
once visited a small town in the South with my friend
David. The town was extremely poor, and not much to
look at. In fact, as I drove through the town I remember
thinking "what an awful, wretched little redneck
dump!" In other words, I focused entirely on what
was wrong with the place, and what was lacking.
But when David looked at this little
town he saw something very different. He began pointing
out to me commercial property that was for sale at a
bargain price. He noticed there was only one non-fast
food restaurant in town, which meant there was a great
opportunity to expand a restaurant chain into the area.
David rambled on for 10 minutes or more
about all the opportunity he saw around him in this
town. You see, that was his perspective. In fact, everywhere
he went, he saw opportunity and potential for growth
and advancement. My attitude at the time was quite different.
Everywhere I went I saw problems, lack and limitation.
Long story short, David ended up investing in a commercial
property in that little town that has been earning him
a nice side income for the last 15 years, and it is
all because of his perspective. Attracting wealth came
naturally to him because he had developed the habit
of looking for the best in people, places and things.

Eventually,
I figured out David's secret to success, and changed
my perspective too. I stopped focusing on lack and poverty,
and started focusing on wealth and prosperity. This
has enabled me to be aware of many opportunities I would
have missed had I continued in the negative state of
mind I lived with for so many years.
To
me, this example represents what attracting wealth is
all about. When you are focused on wealth and prosperity
and opportunity and financial success, you begin noticing
more and more of these things everywhere you go. This
is all part of the process of attracting wealth.
And it is just common sense really.
For example, if I ask you to start thinking about blue
BMW's and focus a lot of attention on this subject,
you will very likely start seeing blue BMW's everywhere
you go. Why? Because you have changed your perspective
and focused your attention on blue BMW's.
Attracting
wealth works exactly the same way. Focusing your attention
on "having," instead of "not having"
will give you the right perspective, and you will begin
noticing opportunities for wealth and success where
you probably would have overlooked them in the past.
There
is an old cliché that says, "Energy flows
where attention goes." That's a great concept to
keep in mind. We start attracting
wealth when we change our perspective, and see the
world through the eyes of a wealthy successful person.
You can begin today by focusing your attention on wealth,
opportunity and success, and ignoring anything to the
contrary. It always works.
