Since 2004, I’ve been immersed in studying what to do and what not to do in order to become wealthy and avoid poverty. Thanks to my Rich Habits Study and my ongoing Rich Habits research, I’ve learned an enormous amount about what it takes to become wealthy. Here are the most important things I’ve learned about building wealth:…
There once was a woman who was miserable with her life. She hated her low-paying, high-stress job, yet worried every night about losing it. She and her husband were falling behind on their bills and their credit card debt kept growing. They constantly fought with each other over their money problems. Her husband began coming…
Is happiness genetic? Is it predetermined? In 2017, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam, in the Netherlands, published a paper that, for the first time, linked genetics to happiness. In the study of nearly 300,000 people, the researchers, led by Meike Bartels, found that there was a direct link between genes and happiness. This is a groundbreaking study….
Those who struggle with poverty, while growing up, see the world as a very different place from those raised in the middle-class or in wealthy households. In my Rich Habits Study, 41% of the 177 self-made millionaires were raised in poor households. Yet, somehow they managed to break out of their poverty as adults. Ironically, according…
Most of us do as we are told. This habit forms early in life. Our parents, for our own good, make us do things we don’t want to do: wake up early for school, eat broccoli, do homework, do house chores, etc. Doing what we are told is conditioned into us from the very beginning….
Only 4% of those raised in poverty become self-made millionaires. Sadly, I could share all of the Rich Habits, success tips, wealth advice, health research, etc. with everyone in the world and still only a small percentage would take action. Why are so few willing to take action and change their lives? Because change is…
Your daily habits are the reason you are rich, poor or stuck in the middle class. They are the reason you live in the house of your dreams or a shack. 40% of all of your daily activities are habits This means that 40% of the time you’re on autopilot, every day. Habits save brain…
One of the most fascinating discoveries made in the field of quantum mechanics is that everything in the universe is connected to everything else in the universe. They call this strange phenomenon quantum entanglement. Albert Einstein famously referred to quantum entanglement as “spooky action at a distance”. What enables this universal connectivity is something called…
Being rich is really about two things: Accumulating Wealth and Keeping the Wealth You’ve Accumulated When you study rich people like I have, particularly the self-made rich, you hear a lot of very inspirational stories about how ordinary individuals accumulated their wealth. It’s clear to me that the worse the circumstances, the more important it…
It is virtually impossible to become successful with a negative mindset. Negativity puts the emotional centres of the brain in control while shutting down the logical/analytical centres of the brain. When you make decisions using the emotional centers of the brain, those decisions are always bad decisions. And decisions made out of Fear, are always…
