Millionaire’s Mindset
Getting rich isn’t easy. It is hard. But, when your body, mind and soul are committed in acquiring riches, everything is very easy. There are specific guide to follow here at InvestmentTotal.com;

1. Stop working for a while – go to a silent place, have a sound of silence. Maybe in your bedroom. Where in, you are the only person in that place. Make sure no one will disturb you. Think about your fast, your current situation. Analyze the problem. Pray to God. Cry, mourn if you want.

2. Think about what you really want in life – after you have prayed, have a list on what you really want in life. Just write them down. Make sure you have a pen and notebook in your hands. Things like; specific amount of money (example P10,000,000), a great relationship with your spouse and kids, a wonderful blessed family, a great career or business, more time with yourself and with your loved ones.

Another example, living in a peaceful and secured place, a luxury car, a house and lot, a profitable business and many more that you really want in life.

If you ask me what I really want, I will share it with you today.
I want P10,000,000 worth of investment in my mutual funds, another P10,000,000 investment in my UITF accounts and extra P5,000,000 stocks equity.

I want a white Ford Everest for my family, a red Toyota Corolla Altis, a black shiny BMW car, a house and lot with music room, 3 bedrooms, office for my blogging ventures, and mini library. (study room)

I want to earn P5,000,000 per year regularly in my businesses such as swine raising and business enterprises.

I want to have a healthy lifestyle, maintain my spiritual maturity, a great relationship with God and other people, helping my community. I want to travel the whole Philippines from Luzon to Mindanao in 3 years. I want to go abroad (Paris, New York, Hawaii) not for work but for pleasure experiences (that’s it)

I have a blessed family, a healthy kids. (Granted already). Thank you Lord.

3. After thinking, set a specific goal – you have to set a specific goal, thinking is just a part of this process. You should not stop in thinking, go and make a plan. What is your plan, when do you want to achieve your goal? When do you want to become rich? At age 45 or at age 65.

4. Think how rich people think -do what millionaires are doing
You have to have a millionaire mindset. You have to know how rich get richer. How they manage their finances. How do they think when it comes to making money? How do they treat other people?

Millionaires invest, millionaires take risk. Rich people do whatever it takes to acquire more riches. Millionaires play the stock market today, rich people invest in real estate, rich people are bosses, rich people are business owners not employees, rich people play their money in these different types of investments.

5. Be happy and rich – awhile ago, I stated “be happy first and the money will follow”. If your purpose why you want to become rich is to become happy, I think you better change that purpose beginning today. Money can guarantee you happiness and contentment, however, money is just an instrument to make you happy. Therefore, be happy first and the money will follow.

Are you happy on what you are doing? Are you happy when you are investing? Are you happy on what you get from the return on your investments? Are you happy in your present job or business? Are your customers happy? Are your clients happy? Happiness is everything.

6. Thank God with all your heart – get rich slowly by means of investing small amount of money for a specific period of time. Wait patiently. After you had reached your target or goal. Do not forget to praise Almighty God and give Him thanks for the wealth, health and happiness he had given you. Give thanks by offering or tithing – the holy offerings inside the church.

For employees, you can get rich on the internet using your free hours, by means of affiliate marketing, blogging, virtual assistant, website developer,game or apps developer.

Getting rich from home is also one of the best ideas for other parents, if you love foods, then try to sell foods in your local community. Some entrepreneurs are posting their products online like Facebook, they make a sale via online.

Avoid getting scammed by learning how to invest your money wisely. Here at InvestmentTotal.com, there are lot of guides to invest your money such as stock investing, mutual funds and UITF.
