The First Secret of a Millionaire’s Mind
James Altucher interviewed T. Harv Eker in his 100th episode and it blew my mind.
It might be that I am too much into personal development right now but his key lessons resonated so much with me that I want to share them here.
The first secret he shares is …
Your thoughts lead to your actions, and your actions lead to your results. Where do our thoughts come from?
One of the biggest lessons he learned is that we have a program of thoughts and beliefs that ‘runs us’. It’s different for everyone but there is a program unconsciously guiding, controlling and manipulating us.
We make our decisions on our thoughts and beliefs that might not be true. No one really talks about it. No one is really interested in it. Most of us take our thoughts and beliefs for granted.
Technique: Verbal Programming
T. Harv Eker shares that he uses verbal programming to reprogram his thoughts. There are three steps to move to from limiting to more empowering thoughts:
- Ask yourself “Is this helpful?” “Is this a supportive thought to my own happiness and well-being” Mostly, it’s not. Then tell yourself:
- “Thank you for sharing” Acknowledge your mind. Be grateful for protecting you.
- Then, tell yourself: “I choose to think differently that [example]” (Ex: “I will be rich and a good person.”)
Listen to the podcast and get more insights. An outstanding interview, thanks to James Altucher and Harv.
