You are lost if you do not believe that having money is a good thing.

You needrepparttar self-confidence and focus to follow your dream and this will be fatally undercut if you haverepparttar 123616 wrong philosophy of life and money.

No amount of effort on your part will overcome a faulty philosophy. If, deep down, you believe that wealth is a sin or that money is dirty, or wicked thenrepparttar 123617 first step is for you to correct this error or give up all hopes of wealth for you and your family.

What is a 'wrong' philosophy with regard to making money?

Anything which could be described as altruistic, socialist, collectivist, communist or any one of its thousand manifestations no matter whatrepparttar 123618 label, no matter whatrepparttar 123619 disguise, no matter whatrepparttar 123620 smoke screen.

Without exception, every self-made millionaire I have met was a rugged individualist. Most of them despised government, although many were clever enough not to say so in public. And believe me, there were approximately zero socialists amongst them.

A socialist, whatever he calls himself, is someone who believes that brute force should be used to loot fromrepparttar 123621 productive, in order to provide handouts forrepparttar 123622 unproductive. No matter how you disguise it, or make it look fancy, that'srepparttar 123623 plain truth ofrepparttar 123624 socialist doctrine.

I believe that it is impossible for you to attempt to get rich if you have some nagging doubt that money isrepparttar 123625 root of all evil, that Capitalism is bad or that wealth should be divided up amongstrepparttar 123626 needy. You have surrenderedrepparttar 123627 philosophical high ground if you sign up for any of these positions.

Changing Fear into Excitement

Written by Ted Schredd


Fear scares people. That’s what it’s supposed to do; it’s just a matter of how much and how often do we really need to be scared? Basically, there are two kinds of fear. Real fear allows you to save your butt in challenging situations (like being chased by a predator or facing imminent danger). Then there are imagined fears-which hold you back from experiencing life. Imagined fears may come from a previous unpleasant experience, other people’s fears or bad information. The way your brain sees it there is no difference between an imaginary fear and a real one. Fear can provide stress and physical anxiety as you prepare for new experiences. It can cause you to lack good judgment or to do irrational things. Chicken-heartedness can turn into terror and complete immobilization. Or you can change your panic into an exciting edge when stepping out of your comfort zone. What’s scary for some is sheer delight for others. Confronting your fears will give you an incredible sense of satisfaction and confidence. Your happiness is directly related to whether fear runs your activity schedule or your courage does. In a modern world, fear has minimal uses, especially ifrepparttar perceived concern has no basis in reality. When you are full of fear, you end up worrying about events that will never even happen. We worry aboutrepparttar 123615 environment,repparttar 123616 safety ofrepparttar 123617 neighborhood or world peace. We worry about murderers, terrorists andrepparttar 123618 stock markets. Some people call it worrying; others call it being realistic. But worrying is a waste of time; it has never paid a single bill nor stopped a hurricane. Ifrepparttar 123619 situation or problem can be remedied, there is no point worrying about it. If there is nothing you can do about your problems, there is no point worrying either. Think aboutrepparttar 123620 fears and worries in your life and how they affect your fun level. You don’t have to deny your fears, just question if they’re truly looking out for your best interests. Are you focusing on what could go wrong instead of what could go right? So many people are consumed by worry, hoping that one day their lives will get better, as another day slips away. Instead of seeingrepparttar 123621 worst-case scenario in your mind, seerepparttar 123622 best-case scenario. Become what motivational speaker Brian Tracey calls an inverse paranoid. Become convinced that there are hundreds of people waiting around every corner to show you some form of fun or pleasure. Become paranoid thatrepparttar 123623 world is out to do you good. Now, fun people do not deny their fears. Are they scared when they face their fears? You bet, but devoted delight detectors make it a habit of facing their fears instead of tucking their tails behind their legs and hiding underrepparttar 123624 bed. They change their fears from a debilitating annoyance into waves of adrenaline and excitement. When you face your fears, whether you succeed or not, you are a winner. You are a winner because you have chosen to be motivated by your passion for living and not by fear. The way to counteract your fears and worries is to gain knowledge, which gives you courage. Use wisdom, not worries, when traipsing out intorepparttar 123625 world. If you were to head out hiking inrepparttar 123626 mountains, would you worry that you could fall off a cliff, become lost, get eaten by a bear or get hit by an avalanche? These are all possible scenarios, but only remotely possible. The more you worry about it,repparttar 123627 more likely you are to create it. If you stay away fromrepparttar 123628 cliffs, take a map and a compass, avoid taping salmon to your body and stay out ofrepparttar 123629 avalanche zones, you’ll be fine. We do so many dangerous things in our everyday lives and yet we worry about a little adventure. What about crossingrepparttar 123630 street? Do you see yourself getting pegged by a bus? Of course you don’t. So when we consider new or unknown activities, why do we create such terrible visions? Chances for a major injury are much greater crossing a busy street than traipsing inrepparttar 123631 mountains. If something does happen while you’re enjoyingrepparttar 123632 world, at least you’re living! Watching TV and eating potato chips may be safe but you will get fat and it’s boring.
