Treat Yourself Like Someone You Love

When Warren Buffet was asked by a TV interviewer about how he measures wealth, he answered, “By how much love a person has in their life.” He said that he knows a lot of high net worth people who have few successful relationships. For Buffett, these people are not wealthy.

I agree. . In Build Your Money Muscles I say that when you feel loved, accepted, acknowledge, and appreciated, you’ll be open to greater cash flow. And experiencing these feelings depends on your relationship with yourself and others.

Feeling loved, accepted, acknowledge, and appreciated by others begins with loving, accepting, acknowledging, and appreciating yourself. Many people I talk to admit that their internal dialog is more critical than loving. When this is your internal state, people will reflect criticism rather than love, and it is difficult to generate acknowledgement in the form of money.

To alter your internal dialog, start focusing on treating yourself like someone you love. Here are some suggestions:

1. Listen to how you talk to yourself. When the critical voice comes into your head, tell it, “Thanks for sharing, but we don’t talk like that any more.” Take a deep breath and tell yourself that you are a good girl/boy, followed by your power word.
2. Stand close to a mirror and look directly into your eyes. Say outloud, “(Your Name), I unconditionally love and accept you exactly the way you are.” This can bring up a lot of emotion, don’t try to hold it back.
3. Buy yourself some flowers.
4. Stroke your body gently.
5. Give your body what it needs to function well.

You can also use the following statements with your power word to help overcome your resistance to loving yourself:

• I give myself permission to treat myself like someone I love. Power word.
• I release my resistance to loving myself. Power word.
• I am willing to treat myself in a loving way. Power word.
• I am willing to speak kindly to myself.Power word.
• I want to love myself. Power word.
• I am lovable. Power word.

Instructions for the power word

Millionaire Minds are Coachable

Live Well and Prosper,

Each day as we declare our ‘Attitudes of Wealth’, we state, “I play the money game to win. My intention is to create wealth and abundance.” We use “Playing the Money Game To Win!” as the motto of the Millionaire Mind Support Network™ as a way to state our intention for our community. For me, day two helped define just what “Winning the Money Game” looked like and what it was going to take to reach my Financial Freedom.

Growing our Financial Freedom Account is Job ONE for Millionaire Minds. Our FFA is the Golden Goose that gives us the golden eggs of passive income.
DO NOT, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES MESS WITH YOUR GOLDEN GOOSE!

Doug LOVES his Golden Goose, and feeds it EVERY DAY!

Doug stressed, in every way possible, the importance of growing and carefully managing our financial freedom account… invoking the Vegas rule — What goes into the FFA STAYS in the FFA.

Doug was so adamant about the importance of NEVER, NEVER, EVER — Killing our Goose, that one of the attendees gifted him with his very own Golden Goose.

Doug Reviewed the Five Factors of Financial Freedom

1. Working Income
2. Savings
3. Investment
4. Passive Business Income
5. Simplified Life Style

To Master Money, You Must Manage Money, and Managing Money Well is the First Step to Financial Freedom.

To help us become ‘Excellent Money Managers’ Doug and Melanie demonstrated the simplest money management system in the world —
The Money Jars — The Financial Freedom Account, Education, LTSS-Long Term Savings Spending, Necessities, Play and Give Accounts.

If you still have some questions about how to use this money management system, listen to The Millionaire Mind Action TeleClass. Peak Potentials has made this audio file available to MMI graduates to help you set up and manage your jars/accounts. They answer the most common questions that come up about the money management system. After you’ve listened to the recorded TeleClass, and you still have questions, you can EMAIL your Jar/Account questions to: jars@peakpotentials.com.

Playing the money game to win, means starting your jars/accounts is now!
Don’t let your “Better Idea” get sabotage your Financial Freedom.

“The philosophy of the rich versus the poor is this: The rich invest their money and spend what is left; the poor spend their money and invest what is left.”
