Having a Millionaire Mindset for Building Your Dream

What comes to mind when we hear the word Mindset? Quite often this word is misinterpreted by many well meaning individuals. No doubt you have heard of the Secret? This was a big hit a few years ago and still is to this day. At first, it can be difficult to comprehend. Don't misunderstand me, I think The Secret is a great movie and I personally recommend people should view it. However, it leaves out some valid principles of having a successful "Mindset." especially if you want to prosper with a Millionaire Mindset. So we need to examine and separate the simple thought process from the actual mindset.

"If you dream it, it's realistic"

Visualization: (the ability or skill to picture something that doesn't 'really' exist in front of your eyes) is a great part of developing who you are and who you are becoming. However, without some sort of action to actually become that individual, it will never happen. I've had people close to me talk about how they have visualized this or that to come into their lives. It could be as simple as a small gift or a pay rise. And then, on a special occasion that gift or change of circumstances materializes. I don't call this having a great Mindset; in fact I would consider this inaccurate and false confidence. Until you are able to produce the results you desire through your own thoughts and actions, you have only set yourself up to be dependent on other people's thoughts and actions. This will NEVER get you to achieve a Millionaire Mindset for Entrepreneurs. There are some fundamental distinctions between what is and what isn't.

Changing wrong beliefs

Thoughts vs. Actions: I have had the pleasure of talking to people who ask for certain things in their business career and then when it comes time to take action these well thought of intentions evaporate. It's great to have goals and even better to have intentions. A goal will continue to give you something to think about and an intention will give you something to start taking action on. However positive thinking with no attached action leaves you in the same place you were before you started thinking. If your actions are not in line with your thoughts and vice-versa, you will end up wondering why you are not prospering in the results you desire. Make a thought an intention and then go all out and make this happen.

"The only thing between you and your goals is your own
limiting thoughts"


Responsibility vs. Blame: Developing a Millionaire Mindset for Entrepreneurs sometimes means you have to stand up to something adverse, such as criticism. You see, you're not going to get very far if you continue to take the easy road all the time. And, when you decide to take the road less traveled, sometimes you make senseless mistakes. Face it; you're going to screw up. This is a part of learning and growing. What matters is what you do when you screw up. If you say things like, "But you said I should..." or "You made me do this it's not my fault" then you have a long un-prosperous road ahead of you. On the other hand, the sooner you take accountability for your actions and your results, the quicker you will get to where you're headed. You are where you are because of YOU!

"You always create situations to verify what you
imagine being true about yourself."


Leadership vs. Following: Are you a follower? Do you always agree to what other people say even if deep down it's not really what you want? Do you try and talk friends and colleagues out of an idea simply because you are afraid to be challenged? If this fits your personality, you are a follower. You need to start being the person who makes claims and believes that there are bigger and better things waiting for you. Stop worrying about what other people in your life might say. DO NOT let these people's fears and weakness affect your prosperous mindset. Just because these people are afraid doesn't mean you should be. In fact, this is the perfect time for you to be a leader and show them it IS possible and there is nothing to be afraid of.
"We have nothing to fear, but fear itself"
"Courage is resistance to fear, Mastery of fear-not absence of fear"
So I hope this helps. Having a Millionaire Mindset for Entrepreneurs is a lot more than just desirous thinking. It is about keeping your mindset on your intentions and not straying from this train of thought no matter what. When a stumbling block happens, take responsibility and go around. When someone tries to talk you out of it, stay focused at all times on your intentions and keep your mindset. Turn those thoughts into aspiring actions and you'll be well on your way to having a Millionaire Mindset for Entrepreneurs.
Prosper and grow in the success you seek
