Most people think they’re broke because of external factors. They blame the economy, their boss, and even their upbringing.

They believe that if they could just make more money, everything would change.

But that’s actually completely wrong.

You see, the real reason you’re broke is because of your mindset.

As I say in The Money Blueprint, wealth starts in your mind.

It isn’t about luck or circumstances. It’s about how you think. Napoleon Hill, in Think and Grow Rich, studied 500 of the richest people in history and found that financial success starts in the mind before it ever shows up in the bank.

If you don’t fix your thinking you will be broke forever.

Your Thoughts Create Your Reality

If you believe money is hard to get, guess what? It will be. If you think rich people are greedy, you’ll subconsciously push wealth away. The truth is, your beliefs dictate your actions, and your actions determine your bank account.

Rich people think differently. They expect success. They believe they deserve wealth. They focus on opportunities instead of obstacles.

Meanwhile, broke people focus on what they lack, complain about their circumstances, and make excuses for why they aren’t where they want to be.

How to Fix It Today

  1. Decide to Get Rich
    Most people wish for wealth. Few people decide they will be rich no matter what. That decision alone puts you ahead of 99% of people who will spend their lives settling for mediocrity.
  2. Rewrite Your Money Story
    What do you believe about money? If your beliefs are negative, they need to go. Replace “money is hard to get” with “money flows to me easily.” Replace “I can’t afford that” with “How can I afford that?”
  3. Develop an Obsession
    Every self-made millionaire is obsessed with success. They study wealth. They hang around successful people. They take action every single day. If you’re not obsessed, you’re not serious.
  4. Start Taking Massive Action
    Thinking alone won’t make you rich. You must back your beliefs with action. Start learning high-income skills. Invest in yourself. Stop making excuses and start executing.
