Dear Steemians,

Do you want to become rich? But do you really? You must have a purpose and a rough plan what would you like to achieve by being rich and act do something to reach it. Do you ever read about how certain people got their wealth?
Do you know for example how Bill Gates, Snoop Dogg or Jack Ma (founder of Alibaba) got to point where they are now?

I chose these names on purpose. I'm sure you know the first name,maybe the second one as well. But the 3rd one could be a complete stranger for you. How is that we all know everything about certain stars, football players and movie stars but when it comes to real stories about how someone became rich we only know a few?

1. Read one story everyday about how other people got their wealth

Your brain needs work! Rather than checking your social media app every day (which is fun) all the time install this app:
Biography Of Famous Personalities free (Google Playstore) and read a story! Be inspired! Try to find someone you can relate to.

Lot of the times we forget most of these people didn't succeed on their first try but never gave up. They believed something else is possible rather than working from 9-5 everyday for the rest of your life. What can you lose?

2. Change the way you think about money

When you start reading these stories you will notice certain similarities, for example all of them tried to find a solution for a problem they had. But not just for them, something that is common for everybody. There is Steve Jobs, first he wanted to do build a computer available for the masses. It wasn't a big success, there were a lot of competitors, so that plan failed. He kept going and years later they presented the Iphone which was a big help bringing users closer.

Now the point I want to make is if you want to start a business on pure greed to get rich, you might not succeed. And you might not enjoy it during the process. What is that thing you would if you would be as rich as Bill Gates? What excites you? You will do that even if they don't pay for. Try to see the value, the knowledge you have in that activity. Because other people will pay for you if they feel the passion you've put into it.

Money is not the goal, being happy while you do something will attract the money.
If you know what makes you happy start embracing that. Make yourself even better and start sharing with others.

3. Appreciate yourself and gift yourself

This is connected to the previous point. What's the point of having money if you are not using it to make you happy?
Stop with the bullshit you can't deserve something. Or you can't afford it. What do you think what are you showing to the Universe by saying these things? That you don't deserve money. There is nothing in this world that you can't get. Perhaps you can't receive it, but that's a whole another story.

Buy something to gift yourself every day! It could be a cake or a chocolate bar. Doesn't have to big, just needs to be for you.

4. Realize that by having loads of money you can change everything

What do you think what would happen if you could buy a house for your parents? For your nieces and nephews? What would that change in your life? And most importantly in their life?

Having money is the most powerful superpower in this world. What's stopping you having so much money that you can't even spend it? It's only your head that keeps you away from this. Let this thoughts be in your mind be grateful for them and then choose something that will make you rich!

Start each day with saying to yourself that you have loads of money. If you will actually start to believe it, everything will change!

5. Be happy for the money!

I think it is really important. In our every day life, we get money, we spend money, but somehow we are not as excited as we could be. I mean Tom and me had a conversation about how supper happy exited we were when we got 5 dollar at age of 10.

Do you remember? You probably thought you could buy the whole world! And that is the feeling you need! Be excited for every kind of money you get! There is an amazing book Secret of the millionaire mind by Harv Etker, and he said every time he found a penny on the street, he becomes so excited and he says: " I am a money magnet!". Be excited about the money! Be excited even if you just think of it!

6. Do not be afraid

I read somewhere " The only difference between you and a master is that the master made more mistakes than you". For me it was really important to see, if I am just sitting and waiting for the change I will never be "the master". Use the money, read about the money, watch Shark Tank, check the millionaire's twitters, and most importantly Do not be afraid to become one of them.

I know it is huge, because you can say: "Shut up man, I wanna be rich, I do not want to be poor!!", even you become angry when you read this. But I think you have to sit down with yourself get that cold beer and look into those eyes and ask, super honestly: " Are you sure you wanna be rich?" . We have so many viewpoints about the money, perhaps the most, we heard rich people are devils, and the root of every evil is the money, and millionaires are selfish people...

Of course with this mindset you will never be rich! You do not want to be the bad guy! So now put your hand on your heart, stand up and say with me: " Everything I though about the money is not mine. Money is a contribution to my happiness and to my beloved ones! And now look up and say " I am millionaire!!
