7 steps to financial freedom


I was watching one of Brian Tracy's videos, where he talked about achieving financial freedom. It was a very good video with some really good insights, so I decided to take notes and share what I learned from this video with everybody.
1. Build a positive attitude towards money.
If you believe that the rich are greedy or you can not be rich by being honest, you are likely to begin to sabotage your own success and work against yourself.
If you believe that too much money is not noble, you do not want to pursue for prosperity also.
2. Set yourself financial goals.
In order to achieve financial success, a specific plan and goals are needed.
Without a target, financial freedom is very difficult to achieve.
3. Plan your day ahead.
It's best to do it the night before.
Making a plan helps you to focus on the important and not to be carried away by not important stuff.

 4. 80/20 rule.
80% of the results comes from 20% of the things we do.
Focus only on those things that have the greatest impact on your life.
5. Invest in your own development.
Use this time for studying when you do not have to spend extra time for it.
For example, you can listen to audio books while driving or walking or doing workouts.
6. Analyze your  results.
Ask yourself: "What worked? Why was this project  successful?" or "What can I do better the next time? ". This way you`re constantly evolving and getting better 
every day.If you want to make more money, you need to get better.
7. Treat everybody well.
If you want to achieve something great, it can not be achieved alone - this requires the help of other people. If you treat other people well, then they also want to help you.
In addition, good relationships make life much more happier and reduce stress levels.

List of accomplishments

In March 2017 I went to T. Harv Eker`s live seminar Millionaire Mind Intensive. We were taught a very useful trick there that a lot of successful people use. It seemed as an useful idea and I decided to try it myself as well.
Turns out that many successful people have a habit to write down a list of the things they have accomplished over the course of their lives and which they are really proud of.  Every time they accomplish something big again, they add it to the list.
Before taking on a new project, they are going to take this list and read it.

When we start to do something new and frightening, the mind immediately begins to produce fears and all sorts of negative scenarios and think what can all go wrong. Reading our achievements brings focus back to positiveness and reminds us that if we have accomplished something big in the past, then we are quite likely to be able to do it this time also. It boosts self-confidence and we become more courageous.
Self-confidence is largely dependent on past successes. By constantly reminding ourselves of what we have done in our lives, it enhances self-esteem and self-confidence.
On autopilot the mind is always focusing on a limited period of time and what`s negative in the world and begins to look for obstacles. Often, we have completely forgotten the great achievements of our past. However, if you read your achievements from time to time, it gives a boost of confidence before starting a new project.
I have used this method many times and found an enourmous help from it. I kindly recommend for you to try it as well :)
