Change Your Focus

In Robert Kiyosaki’s book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, the author states that if you want to become rich the only thing you need to do is to increase your financial vocabulary. This is true because, in order to increase your financial vocabulary, you have to shift your focus. You will have to begin reading different types of magazines, holding different types of conversations, and so on. Philosopher Ludwig Von Witkenstein once said, “Whereof one cannot speak, one cannot think.” People who have wealth and abundance in their lives speak and think differently than those who don’t. The flashlight of their focus is on a different corner of the room.
Decide. Decide that money is important. It’s so important that you’re willing to do everything you can to learn about it - how to manage it, how to invest it, and how to multiply it. Before long you’ll find yourself holding different conversations with people, reading different types of magazines, and spending your time in ways that enable you to increase your financial intelligence. When you shift your focus, it will be as if you’ve typed the word “wealth” into your search engine. Your experience of life will actually change, and new possibilities will present themselves to you.

When you change your focus, you can change your external finances
- sometimes even instantaneously.
