Lets talk now about how self made millionaires create financial success. Now remember, a self made millionaire is a person who starts with nothing early in life and becomes a millionaire or more in the course of a working lifetime. What is it that they do? About 1% of people in our society are self made millionaires. It's now moving toward 2% and your job is to be one of them sometime in the future. One of the great secrets of human history is that you become what you think about most of the time. If you sincerely want to be rich, one of the smartest things you can do is to develop the habits of thinking and acting like a self made millionaire. These habits of financial success are learnable as all habits are learnable by practice and repetition. Now self made millionaires discipline themselves to make whatever sacrifices are necessary to achieve those financial goals. They organize and reorganize their entire financial lives. Their earning, investing, insuring and spending activities in such a way that they're all coordinated and helping them move toward hitting those specific financial targets. Most people have the opposite habits from self made millionaires with regard to money. Instead of setting financial goals and thinking in terms of accumulation and saving, the majority of people think of spending and enjoying every penny they can get their hands on and whatever else they can put on their credit cards. At a certain point in life, each person comes to a crossroads. One road leads in the direction of earning, saving and accumulating, while the other road leads in the direction of earning, spending and getting into debt. As a responsible adult, you must decide which road you're going to take. And no matter what road you have taken up until now, you're always free to choose the road that you're going to follow from this day forward. The starting point of achieving financial success and joining the self made millionaires club is for you to accept complete responsibility for your financial life. Most self made millionaires organize their financial goals and financial lives in such a way that their net worth increases at about 8 to 10% per year on the amount of money that they have from working. So they set financial goals and they don't look for get rich quick schemes or easy easy money. As a result of these habitual ways of thinking about their money, each year their wealth grows. Very much like jacking up a car, it ratchets up and it doesn't fall back. Eventually they pass the million dollar mark and usually they keep on going. When you become the kind of person who can set financial goals and accumulate a million dollars and more, even if something unfortunate happens and you lost all your money, you'll still be able to make it back again fairly quickly because you would have become the kind of person who can become a millionaire. And once you become that kind of person, you never lose it.
