20 Principles of the Wealthy Mind: Do You Have A Wealthy Mindset?
1. Broke people think that everything is too good to be true, whereas Wealthy people think getting a job sounds too
bad to be true.
2. Broke people give up when things don’t go their way; a few disappointments and they are on to something else,
saying things like “it wasn’t for me”. Wealthy people work harder and become more determined when things go bad, and
they understand you have to take the bad with the good in order to make it.
3. Broke people always have an excuse. Wealthy people say “my fault” and refuse to make excuses.
4. Broke people think not getting what they want is okay. Wealthy people are disgusted at the notion of not getting
what they want and will do whatever it takes.
5. Broke people always have to talk it over with their broke friends to make sure no one will make fun of them if they
make a decision. Wealthy people think for themselves and couldn’t care less what their broke friends think.
6. Broke people are never coach-able, nor teachable. Wealthy people are always learning; even when the money starts
coming in, they never stop learning from those who were there first.
7. Broke people are scared of others. Wealthy people entrust in others and know other people are crucial to their
success.
8. Broke people are always procrastinating. They would rather talk about it, read about it, think about it, but never
seem to do anything about it. Wealthy people hate doing anything but getting it done.
9. Broke people are glad when the day is over. Wealthy people love it when the day begins.
10. Broke people think wealthy people are “lucky”. Wealthy people put themselves in a position to be “lucky” and then
work hard to make the “luck” show up.
11. Broke people work by the hour. Wealthy people work by the month.
12. Broke people want to know that after 1 hour of work they have something to show for it. Wealthy people find broke
people who think like that – and make them their employees.
13. Broke people get excited when they just get hired. Wealthy people think it is funny someone can be fooled that
easily; they are just making a wealthy person wealthier.
14. Broke people complain a lot. Wealthy people are thankful no one shot at them today, that they didn’t have to fight
in a war, and that they don’t have a job.
15. Broke people are more concerned about what other people are doing. Wealthy people are only concerned about
what they can be doing to get more done.
16. Broke people think that if no one is doing something, it must suck. Wealthy people think that if no one is doing
something, it means more money for them.
17. Broke people think if everyone (all 200 people at a meeting in a city of 1 million) is doing something, the market must
be saturated. Wealthy people think that broke people aren’t very bright.
18. Broke people think it is okay for others to live where they want to live, drive what they want to drive, and do what
they want to do. Wealthy people expect to live where they want to live, drive what they want to drive, and do what
they want to do.
19. Broke people are accepting of the fact they cannot do these things. Wealthy people get sick just thinking about
being average.
20. Broke people think that other people’s opinions are worth more than their dreams. Wealthy people think that their
dreams are worth more than other people’s opinions.
