Happy New Year Friend!
Hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Did you get anything fun from Santa Claus? :-)
I got a new Mac Studio, which I'm using to write you this email. (Yay for me, so far, I'm loving it! :-)
But that's not the point of today's email. Today, I wanted to ask you a question that may have quite a bit to do, with your ability, to create maximum wealth and prosperity in the coming new year.
What's the price of tea in China?
If your answer is...
"I don't know, and I don't care," then, congrats Friend, you're on the right path so far.
Next question:
What's the current price on a gallon of gas?
Hopefully you have the same answer to this question as you did, the last.
Unless you own an oil rig in Texas, or are investing in petroleum futures, the current price of a gallon of gas, has very little to do with you and your fabulous fortune.
In fact, knowing this useless data, can actually be keeping you from creating all of the money you can create.
This morning on our Grow Rich Mastermind Call, we studied a little principle called Social Heredity, Which basically just means we tend to inherit the beliefs and practices of our parents, grandparents, and people around us.
Problem is, for most of us, we're not surrounded by people living lifestyles of the rich and famous.
Picking up too much of the existing thinking patterns we're exposed to on a daily basis, can cause us to accidentally adopt, beliefs, ideas, & habits, that come from a bit of a 'poverty consciousness' mentality
The price of a gallon of gas, It is one of these little beliefs & habits I've noticed, a lot of people tend to love to focus on.
A long time ago, I realized, It didn't matter what the price of gas was, I was going to have to buy it anyway.
So I stopped filling my mind with this useless data.
I no longer track my fuel mileage, or get into discussions about how high the price of fuel is.
Instead, I strive to fill my mind with all the things I want to be in my life, along with the actions I can take to make them manifest.
Seriously Friend, what can you do about the price of a gallon of gas? If we're being honest, there's really only one answer to this question.
Complain.
Complaining is useless.
Here's a better question.
What can I do today, that will put me in a position so that in the future, I can buy all the gas I want, and everything else I want and need, no matter how much it costs?
This is a question that can get you moving in ways that can actually have a positive impact on your life and your future.
And to me, a much more useful way to think, than complaining over the price of a gallon of gas or worrying about the cost of tea in China.
Wallace Wattles once wrote in The Science of Getting Rich, that "Wealthy people think and act in certain ways, and poor people think and act in certain ways."
Kudos to you for being wise enough to know the difference.
Thanks for reading, and whatever you do, always go for your dreams.
