Someone Says You Can't Be a Millionaire...Think Again

Most are happy where they are and that's a great place for them to be. It's safe, easy and no one will criticize them. I've felt the millionaire calling since I saw my first Rolex watch ad when I was eight. My problem every since was listening AND believing what everyone was telling me. It hadn't dawn on me that my unsolicited advisors were not millionaires, nor were they even aspiring for such lofty goals.

Now I realize the best person to ask "Is this really possible?" is me. I know I will look out for my best interest. I know my heart is in it. I know my limitations and obstacles are in my head.

By truly believing in yourself and understanding why you have such a passion for becoming wealthy, the ideas, resources and people will start to show up. Kind of like you're thinking of buying a blue Carrera and suddenly noticing all the blue Carreras zipping around you. What were they before? People start talking about them. You catch a glimpse of an article. It starts to feel like the world of Carrera suddenly opened its doors to you. Crazy? Maybe. But I've seen it happen time and time again. Once a set a clear focus of what I really want and why (the "why" creates powerful emotions), it truly makes me feel I'm on the right track.

Just watch out for potential de-railers! They will take you off track in a heartbeat. I found these excellent "de-railer" quotes while surfing and they really made me smile and think "Aren't we lucky that some people ignore the naysayers!" Enjoy!!
