What do you know about financial freedom?

After attended the 3 days Millionaire Mind Intensive by T Harv Eker, the biggest seminar with 5,000++ audience that I have ever been, I realize that more and more people are beginning to uncover the world is wealthy.

The power of today’s system especially with internet allows people to find ways to achieve financial freedom without the critical essence of hard work. With smart work, there is a different sense and approach to life.

However, sad to say that the current education system is still left behind with the classical teaching. Most of the things that we learn in schools, colleges or universities are refining us to work hard and harder for money. With the number of new degrees and graduates coming out, most of them still have the 20th century mindset that resulting them stuck in the typical rat race treadmill. Typically, their objective is to study hard, get a good and hottest degree in order to get a well pay job. Work hard to climb the corporate ladders in order to earn more money!

We are not learning what could have been general information for financial success. The traditional view forces most people to follow a structure and system where the rich control the world and the poor pay the bills. Being financially literate means knowing the different pitfalls and mistakes of the traditional mindset.

Personally, the 3 days millionaire mind intensive seminar is a paradigm shift. It changes the way people think. We have to have the right inner thinking in order ot be rich or financially free. For instances, think and model the rich will empower us with the value and the right attitude towards money. With that, we can find reasons why the average or poor are not successful and find ways to avoid these reasons.

As a philosophy, we can approach different aspects of our lives and see things differently. The change in perspective will allow us to be more effective and influential individuals because of our personal success.

Financial success is not governed by our talents, skills or luck. A positive mindset is the mind of people willing to change and act. Having the right mindset will allow us to find opportunities in risks and courage in hesitations.
