Step 3 - Can you handle the Money?
I keep hearing people say that they want more money. They say “If I had more money then my life would be different”. But let me ask you…
If I Offered To Give You €25,000 Each Month For The Rest Of Your Life… Would You Want It?
Would you even know what to do with it? Would you even enjoy spending it?
If you instantly said “Yes! Of course I would want it”, then now is the time to prove to me and more importantly - Yourself - that you do actually want the money.
You see…money goes to people who can offer it certainty and who have a nice warm cozy home already designed for it. Then when the money is treated with respect it will call all of its friends to come and join the party.
So what you are going to be doing this week is to Spend €25,000 per month. If you really do want the money then this will be a very fun exercise.
You will know if you have any internal conflicting beliefs about actually getting new wealth if you find that this exercise is anything other than fun.
It is Extremely Important that you don’t think about some fantasy life. Make this exercise about what you will do from today now that you have just received your first payment of €25,000.
€ £ $ :) :) :) EXERCISE :) :) :) $ £ €
- You have just received €25,000 and you need to allocate that money or it will be taken away from you.
- Take out some paper and a pen (or on your computer) and write out a list of what you will do with that money from today in your real life. What do you do first? What do you need to buy right now?
- Now make sure that all €25,000 is put somewhere and think about how you would feel about doing this now that you have the money (it will come faster than you think so the better you prepare the faster it will come).
- Make sure and do 6 months worth of spending to get to the next stage. If you want wealth to come faster then please do 12 months.
Example:
Month 1
€2,000 on clothes at the Armani Store €3,000 at the dentists to get teeth fixed €2,000 deposit on new apartment beside the park €2,000 on first months rent in new apartment €2,000 to fix up apartment before moving in €3,000 to David as a gift for helping me create this wealth ;) €5,000 for new Ducati Motorbike €1,000 health and beauty weekend getaway (nails, hair, mud bath, detox, spa). €1,000 night out with friends to celebrate my new life. €1,500 Monthly Expenses (food, electric, taxis, phone bill, water) €2,500 Savings

Is it Right to be Rich?
With all this talk of spending, there is a question that many people may be asking
…is it even right to be rich?
Or is it nobler to be poor?
I always find it fascinating that there are so many people in the world who spread the idea that we have been sent to earth to suffer. And if we do a really good job at suffering in this lifetime then in the next life we will get all the goodies that we missed out on.
When I first started to desire wealth, I would see a picture of a Ferrari and thought it was amazing. If you asked me, I would have said that without any doubt that I would love to have one and that my life would be better in every way.
Then one day a friend asked me if I was going to be Rich…..
And I said… ”if I need to be!”.
What I was really doing was avoiding the question, without even realizing it. On one side it looked like I was working as hard as I could to get more wealth. But I couldn’t even admit that I really wanted to be Rich.
It wasn’t until I attended a seminar on wealth that I first heard about limiting beliefs that we have around money. At the time it didn’t really mean very much to me, as I thought I didn’t have any beliefs that were preventing me from accepting wealth. I just thought that if the supermarket would give me a pay raise then I could get a new car.
Then over the next few weeks I kept reading more and more about this and decided to explore what I actually believed about having money and I listened deeply to what the people around me were saying about their desire to have money and people who were Rich.
I heard people saying things that sound crazy to me now, but at the time I thought they made sense. People were saying things like:
• Humans are a disease on this planet, destroying everything in our path. That the world was perfect before humans and it would be much better off without us.
• There is a limit of the amount of material goods we can produce. So for one person to have lots of nice things then others must have to do with less.
• Money is a zero sum game. For one person to win another must lose. The goal of business is to put your competition out of business and get as much money from all the suckers as possible, doing anything necessary.
• To be successful you have to cheat, steal or do business with the government.
• The Higher Power, God, Allah, Buddha, Thor, Zeus etc. wants people to suffer in this life, struggle in poverty and then if they have enough pain and sacrifice in this life they will be allowed into the magic place for an eternity of bliss.
• Some believe that having nice things and “showing off” makes people hate you. Or makes you a Pitzy.
• When they see a woman in a nice car, instantly say that she just romanced her way to wealth.
• To be Rich you need to Work Hard so you won’t have any time for your partner, fun or your family.
• Money can’t buy you love! Money doesn’t make you happy!
• Many people go around asking ‘Would you rather be Rich or Happy?” which means they think that you have to choose between being Rich or Happy. That you cannot have both.
• Rich people have fake friends who only like them for their money.
• Rich people are boring.
• Rich people don’t deserve their wealth. It should be taken from them and shared equally between everyone.
• Rich people exploit poor workers. Poor people are forced to be like slaves, having miserable lives while the Rich just sit on the beach, drinking out of coconuts.
• If I made or won lots of money I would just give it away.
When I became aware of these beliefs I started to think deeply about my own perceptions about money….
…..And I had almost all of these ideas about money within me.
They are programmed into our minds 7 Days a week, 52 weeks of the year from newspapers, radio, TV, schools, governments, churches, family and friends. So it is almost impossible to avoid them.
What is amazing is that the beliefs we hold inside us will determine the actions we take and what we will do with money if we ever manage to get it.
Over the next few weeks we will look at the most powerful and limiting of these and I will explain to you what all of the wealthy people I have met over the years believe about money and about people who are rich.
Just by being aware of the prosperous version will be enough to start making a shift in your ability to bring new wealth into your life…and keep it!
It is not what we don’t know that hurts us. It is what we think we know that just ain’t so that hurts us.
So be ready for a total shift in perception for the rest of this programme. Also notice if any of these beliefs creep into your mind when you are Spending your new €25,000 each month. If you found that exercise difficult or have not yet completed it then I would be certain it is because you have many of these beliefs deep inside.
If you want to have your friends and family join you in wealth then we would love for you to send them this link and they can go through the process with you. People who grow together stay together!
Have a prosperous week-end!
