If you want to create wealth, it is imperative that you believe that you are at the steering wheel of your life, especially your financial life. If you don’t believe this, then you must inherently believe that you have little or no control over your life, and therefore you have little or no control over your financial
success. That is not a rich attitude.
Did you ever notice that it’s usually poor people who spend a fortune playing the lottery? They actually believe their wealth is going to come from someone picking their name out of a hat. They spend Saturday night glued to the TV, excitedly watching the draw, to see if wealth is going to “land” on them this week. Sure, everyone wants to win the lottery, and even rich people play for fun once in a while. But first, they don’t spend half their paycheck on tickets, and second, winning the lotto is not their primary “strategy” for creating wealth. You have to believe that you are the one who creates your success, that you are the one who creates your mediocrity, and that you are the one creating your struggle around money and success. Consciously or unconsciously, it’s still you.
Instead of taking responsibility for what’s going on in their lives, poor people choose to play the role of the victim. A victim’s predominant thought is often “poor me.” So presto, by virtue of the law of intention, that’s literally what victims get: they get to be “poor.” Notice that I said they play the role of victim. I didn’t say they are victims. I don’t believe anyone is a victim. I believe people play the victim because they think it gets them something. We’ll discuss this in more detail shortly. That said, how can you tell when people are playing the victim? They leave three obvious clues. Now, before we talk about these clues, I want you to realize that I fully understand that none of these ways of being has anything to do with anyone reading this book. But maybe, just maybe, you might know someone who can relate. And maybe, just maybe, you might know that person intimately! Either way, I suggest you pay close attention to this section
