Thinking Short Term and Quick Easy Money Are Mutually Exclusive

So I am the kind of guy who has been on all the courses and read all the books. You could call me an information junkie! I have always believed with enough information you can be successful in business. I still do not believe this is a naïve statement. I still

think you can make quick easy money by following the systems that have made other people money. I know I am a capable guy so there is no reason in my mind why I cannot use someone else’s business blueprint to great success.

This belief was getting a little desperate a few months ago after another mediocre business launch. I was following the processes and still only breaking even – to be honest it was making me feel a little bit like a loser. As a believer in positive thinking, as soon as I slipped into this mindset I decided to stop and have a good hard look at the way I was doing business. This process helped me realize a few things.

While I had the best intentions, I often ended up getting distracted. I was so caught up on other people’s systems and the idea of my making quick money online on the back of one of them that I had “magpie syndrome.” I was constantly distracted by the next great opportunity or business model. I realized that I was caught in the trap of short term thinking.

Rather than thinking of the whole process of being a millionaire (my aim) I always thought in the terms of the next few thousand, the next project. It’s crazy that one thing can make so much difference to making quick easy money, but it has. I notice since I stopped thinking short- term I approach everything in a different way.

Quick Easy Money and Beliefs

A few months ago I was getting really frustrated about the fact that I seem to be using the same techniques to make quick easy money as other people but never seemed to generate the profits they did. In fact, I am a member of a fantastic business forum and people have come to me for advice on some of these techniques. So, why was it when I was acknowledged as someone who knew about the ways to make money was I still not rich? I didn't begrudge anyone else their massive successes I just wanted some to come my way!

While I would never say a penny that I have spent learning about systems and processes to make money I started realizing that what separated me from these people making quick easy money online was the people rather than the processes. Don’t get me wrong, systems are great and I stand by them, but if your brain thinks about money in the wrong way, I now believe that regardless of the system, you will always be disappointed.

I think this is why some people seem to naturally make money. Rather than it being luck or even just skill I now think it’s the way they think about it. They have complete belief in their ability to make money: they deserve it, they are capable of it and they put no limits on their ability to create it. The great thing about coming to this conclusion is that beliefs are easy to change, we change them every day. So, now when I think about making quick easy money I KNOW it is flowing into my experience.
