The One Minute Millionaire, written by Robert Allen and Mark Hansen, outlines some very important ideas that people must understand in order to succeed. These principles are called "Aha's." You'll understand why when you read them. Here's a summary of the first 5 Aha's:
1. Manifesting-Everyone Does It: Nothing was created in this world that did not start in the mind. First you think about something and then you bring it about. Loads of people use this to hurt themselves. They constantly think negatively and sooner or later the universe causes their thoughts to become reality. The more energy you put into the thought, the more powerful the outcome will be.
2. Be Do Have: Before starting on the path toward any financial destination, you have to begin the trip knowing that you have already arrived. Start being an Enlightened Millionaire today; don't wait until you have a million dollars.
An Enlightened Millionaire knows that abundance comes when you give to others and that the most important reason to accumulate wealth is to help those in need. It is possible to make millions without charity, however, what you will have is riches, not wealth.
3. Learn, Don't Blame: When something goes wrong, people who live life under the line tend to blame. They blame other people, the situation, or themselves. When you decide to blame you are taking away an opportunity to learn.
Those who live life above the line will learn, instead of blame when problems occur. If they are responsible for what happened, they learn from what they did and resolve to do better in the future. If they are not responsible for the mistake, they learn from the situation rather than blame. This is how the Enlightened Millionaire handles tough situations.
4. The natural state of abundance: There is a neverending supply of abundance in this Universe. The one thing that stands in the way of us having an abundance of what we need is ourselves, more specifically, our thoughts. Frequently we reject abundance without even knowing it by saying or thinking things like, "Theres no way I can afford that," or "There's never enough." By saying or thinking these thoughts, we are rejecting abundance. Before we can start living a life of abundance we must first change our thought habits, show gratitude for what we have, and have faith that we will be given more.
5. Givers get: Just like the ancient texts say, "Give, and it will be given to you." It's the same sort of principle that causes friendly people to have the most friends and those who share their knowledge to receive more. When you give to the needy, you show the Universe that you honestly believe it is eternally abundant.
To review: all your thoughts, especially the intense ones, will manifest themselves in your life, start being an Enlightened Millionaire now, live life on the "learning" side of the line instead of the "blame" side, accept the Universe's abundance, and give to others as you receive. Following these principles will lead you on the path to becoming truly wealthy.
