Are Your Files Corrupt

Think of your brain as composed of millions of files; files that you and your experiences have placed there and built up over time. You've got one for everything: Sports, food, love, business, and of course, money. Using the last one as an example, that money file, you find rules and regulations on how you feel it is appropriate and prudent to act or react to situations involving money. For instance, if you see a set of golf clubs on sale while you're in debt, your file might dictate that you buy the clubs because they are such a great deal. Your file simply may not include the information that states, "you don't buy anything you dont need if you're in debt". Your file doesn't contain that information - so there's no way you'd ever reach that conclusion.

In T. Harv Eker's best selling book, Secrets of the Millionaire Mind, Harv outlines 17 "Wealth Files" that are meant to revise the money files you currently have that may be betraying your success - and replace them with files that exist in the mind of almost all of the world's wealthy and successful individuals.

One of them is:

"Rich people constantly learn and grow. Poor people think they already know."

Essentially, the file states that one must always be open to new sources of knowledge if one desires growth and success in life. To this end, he quotes Benjamin Franklin "If you think education is expensive, try ignorance." Try accepting you have a lot to learn. You might find the results amazing.

Another example:

This file illustrates how we view ourselves in regard to money problems and challenges. "Rich people are bigger than their problems. Poor people are smaller than their problems."

When an individual with a "poor" state of mind encounters a problem, they tend to become overwhelmed by it and place focus there. And, what you focus on is what you'll eventually attain. You don't want problems do you? Comparatively, when someone with a "rich" state of mind encounters a problem, they remain focused on their goals and see the problem as simply a bump to be creatively avoided. That's a major difference that yields very different results.

The above are just two of 17 wealth files covered in depth by T. Harv Eker in this book as well as his many courses, camps and seminars through Peak Potentials Training. This reworking of your foundation and financial views represents a sound principle in any type of inner change. To create new results for yourself - you have to change much more than your actions - you need to change your core beliefs.
