This is a chapter-by-chapter summary of a book by T. Harv Eker’s Secret
of the Millionaire Mind: Mastering the Inner Game of Wealth (2005)
series. One chapter, one article. Read this summary, buy the book. Enjoy!
Wealth
File #12:
Rich People Think “Both.”
Poor People Think “Either/Or.”
As Harv Eker puts it, rich people live in a world of abundance,
poor people live in a world of limitations. Many believe money and
happiness are mutually exclusive, that either
you can be rich or you can be happy. Again,
this is nothing more than “poor”
mentality programming. Do you want a successful career or a close relationship
with your family? Seriously, think about it. What do you choose? The poor* will
choose one. But why? Why you need to choose between the two? Why not both? The rich – the wise ones, of
course – choose both. Be smart and choose both!
Do you want to focus on
business or have fun and play? Both! Do you want money or meaning in your life?
Both! Do you want to be rich or happy? Both! I choose both! You see, poor
people always choose one. Poor people* feel that there is not enough and you
can’t have everything. There is truth in that. Rich people, on the other hand,
think there is plenty for everybody and you can have everything you truly want.
You can’t have everything but you can have what you want. It’s possible. Poor people
believe in scarcity; rich people believe in abundance. The difference couldn’t
be bigger! Do you have to choose between wealth and happiness? No, of course
not! Money is important and happiness is important. You can have both. Eker
puts it in proper perspective: “Money enables
you to ‘slide’ through life instead of having to ‘scrape’ by. Money brings
freedom.” It can’t give or buy you freedom, but it can bring you freedom
and make you smile.
Harv Eker writes, “If I can be an example for anything, it
would be that you can be a kind, loving, caring, generous, and spiritual person
and be really frickin’ rich… My friends, being kind, generous, and loving has
nothing to do with what is or isn’t in your wallet. Those attributes come from
what is in your heart.” Did you hear (or to be exact, read) that? It’s all
about you! There we are again. I already cover this in the previous posts….
Money can’t make you someone you already are. You are who you are no matter
what is or isn’t inside your wallet or bank account. So, you can be happy and
you can be rich! You can choose both – I choose both. Yes, we can. Life is
abundance. Yeah!
[*I need to note that the
Harv Eker makes it clear in this book that he does not mean to degrade poor
people. He does not think that rich people are better than poor or middle-class people. They’re just richer.]
I Have A Millionaire
Mind!
If you look at the current scenario with regards to the grants for small business expansion, the federal government actually offers no direct grants. There are however, some programs by the government, through which grants for research and development activities that a small business might carry out are provided by the SBA. Then there are indirect grants in the form of small business loan guarantees as well as subsidised loans, wherein you get loans at reduced rate of interest from the bank as the government pays some part of your loan. Or if you default on your loan payment, the government pays the bank on your behalf. As you can see, there are opportunities galore for small business funding and grants through Mr Pedro and his funding company. They offer a loan at 2% rate which is very affordable. As a start-up business owner you just have to make an effort to find the one that is most suitable for your business goals.
