Exclusive Excerpts Pat Mesiti's New Book - Milionaire Mindset
Pat Mesiti - Millionaire Mindset
I help make people rich. And to do that, I mess with people’s minds. That’s why I’ve written this book. You may wonder what a book about mindsets has to do with you! Well it’s very simple: we all need to have the right kind of mindset to achieve wealth and prosperity. You see, prosperity isn’t about money, it’s about mindsets. Change your mindset, and you can change your world.
How many times have you read about a person who has won a fortune in the lottery and a few years later is back on poverty street with nothing left of their winnings?
I remember reading about a man in the USA who won $276 million in a lottery and lost it all in just two years. (He must have had a pretty big couple of years!) World champion boxer Mike Tyson earned about $400 million over the course of his career and yet today he is bankrupt.
How does that sort of thing happen? How do you lose that much money? I’ll tell you how: the same way you lose $1,000 or $10,000. You see, it’s not about the money. It has a lot to do with your mindset. You cannot move to another level in your life with the same mindset you have right now. Here’s the key to moving to another level: change your mindset!
We need to shift our thinking if our life is going to change. Let me ask you a question: if you want your life to prosper, will the same level of thinking that you currently have be good enough to get you to another level? The answer is: no! Is it possible to change your thinking? Yes!
You might have a dream and hit every goal you set for yourself too, but a dream in and of itself is not enough. Unless you are able to change your mindset to think how wealthy people think—to think with a millionaire mindset—you won’t achieve sustainable prosperity.
Like lottery winners, you may gain a large sum of money next week, but without a millionaire mindset, it may soon disappear. The bottom line is that your income won’t keep you where your mindset can’t hold you.
What kind of mindset do you have when it comes to wealth, money and prosperity? Do you have a millionaire mindset or a poverty mindset? Are you a ‘top shelf’ kind of person or a ‘bottom shelf’ kind of person? Is prosperity something that only happens to other people? Is prosperity something you’d love to have, but can only dream about?
The word ‘prosperity’ comes from the Latin word prosperare, which means ‘to succeed’. The word ‘prosper’ means ‘to be fortunate, to bloom, to flourish, to progress, to succeed and to thrive’. To me, prosperity means wealth, well being, affluence, influence, success, and a good life. In all these meanings there is a connotation of advancement. My belief is that every one of us is meant to enjoy a prosperous life. We were never meant to only exist. We are born to live life wonderfully and amazingly! Our lives are meant to advance!
How many times in your life have you dreamed about what it would be like to be wealthy? Many people spend their whole lives wishing they had more money, but they never do anything about it. (By the way, buying a weekly lotto ticket doesn’t count!) The truth is, you can live a more prosperous life if you are prepared to make some changes in your life.
The first place in which change needs to happen is in your mind. Before you can become a millionaire, you need to develop the mindset of a millionaire. This book is all about helping you to shift your thinking from a poverty mindset to a millionaire mindset.
It isn’t just about financial prosperity, it’s also about mental and emotional wealth; it’s about abundance and success in every area of your life. Prosperity definitely includes financial wealth, but it should never be limited to this. Prosperity is something that affects your whole life...
