3 Secrets All Millionaires Have in Common - John Assaraf

John Assaraf presents a live YouTube talk describing mindset differences that distinguish millionaires. Core claims: (1) money is a means of exchange and the more value you provide the more you can earn (plus a bonus distinction: getting rich fast via replicable processes vs. getting rich quick gimmicks); (2) millionaires are adaptationists who believe "no matter what is happening around me, I can earn money," use affirmations to prime opportunity-seeing, and act when others freeze. The video includes audience interaction, examples (lottery winners, recessions), and a promo for deeper training and a "Seven Days to a Millionaire Mindset" program.

Hey there. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Good morning. Today I'm going to be talking about three secrets all millionaires have in common. Three secrets all millionaires have in common. Do you believe that millionaires have a way of thinking and behaving that is different than everybody else? Let me know if you believe that millionaires think differently. Give me a like or love or say, give me a little comment or something. I was just talking to a friend of mine the other day who's worth about $250 million, and he and I were talking about what does it take to become a millionaire or a multimillionaire? We discovered that the way we think is so different than most people. So welcome to my achieve even more show. And if you really like this topic around the three secrets that all millionaires share in common, let me know. Yes, I believe that that is true. And let me know that you can hear me and see me as well. So there's a few things that I find really interesting, and that is when times get tough, so many people become paralyzed because they think that there isn't enough money out there somewhere. And there's the same amount of money that there was out there before. You know, any pandemic or any downturn or any recession. It just gets moved around. Do you believe that there's more than enough money? So let me ask a question. Do you believe that there's more than enough money all the time? And I'm going to share with you the three secrets. I've got a little sheet here in front of me of things I want to talk about. And do you think that millionaires think differently? Do you think that they not only think differently, but behave differently? And let me say hello to Terrence and Darlene and Anita and Deb from Alaska and Bishnu. Good morning. Good evening. So some people say yes, some people say no. All right. So if you think that millionaires think differently, just type in. Yes, they do. And if you think that they don't type in. No, they don't. And I'm going to challenge you because I know the answer to that. All right. So if you think about is there the same amount of money in the marketplace now today as there was 30 days ago? Is there the same amount of money in the marketplace all over the world right now as there was six months ago? Is the same amount of money wealth there? Did it just move around? Here's something I learned many, many years ago. If you took all the money, all the gold, all the coins, all the paper, all the value of the buildings, the real estate, the trillion dollar, Amazon or Apple company. If you took all of that wealth and you put it up into airplanes, okay, and you just let it out of the airplanes, let's say there are these jumbo jets with all of the paper and the currencies, and it flew in the air all over the place. The wind took it wherever it would go, and it landed everywhere. In Africa, in Antarctica, in Alaska, in the United States, in Canada. All the wealth just got dispersed. What do you think would happen within three years? What do you think would happen in three years around that wealth? Would the wealth stay with the people who found it on the ground? Or do you think something else would happen? What do you think would happen? Give me your answer. Right, Give me your answer. What do you think would happen if all the wealth, okay, somehow just got dispersed to every human being, you know, in the world, wherever they landed, what do you think would happen? All right. Right. So let's. Let's see. All right. Let's see what your answers are. All right, so, interesting, interesting. Many of you think that nothing would happen, that everybody would keep the money that they found. And then other people are saying that, no, it would go back to the people who originally had it. Now, I want you to think about this. Why do lottery winners who win millions of dollars, okay, why do they lose all the money within three years? 87% lose the money within three years. They get millions. Why do you think that they lose the money within three years? And so Ruth Lane says would go back to the 5% that have it, right? It would go back to the 5% who initially had it, right? About 5 to 10% of the population in the world controls 90% of all the money. And so what is the reason for that? What is the reason for that? What is the reason for that? And Felicia, please don't promote yourself in my feed. Thank you. Right, so what is the reason for that? And the reason for that is because of something that's going on in people's brains, right? So mindset is what separates the best from the rest. And so I wrote down three things that I want to discuss with you, right? So I want to discuss three things with you right now. And so, number one, this. And I learned this 40 years ago around money, right? And so what I wrote down for you, there's two things. Number one, money. Wealthy millionaires or multi millionaires understand that money is a means of exchange, right? So we exchange money for whatever it is the world, whether it's bread Milk, a building, real estate, to hire an employee. So money is a means of exchange. But more than that, the one bigger secret than that I'm going to give you more than three secrets, by the way, is that the more value that I could bring to the marketplace, the more value that I could bring to the marketplace, the more that I can earn. Do you believe that? Do you believe that the more value you bring the money into the marketplace, the more you can earn? So if money truly is a means of exchange, if we go back in time, right, we exchanged seashells for chocolates for goats, for pigs, for fruit, for fish, for meat, for somebody to fix somebody's teeth for some bread. So if money is a means of exchange, is it possible that one of the secrets that millionaires have that many people know about, but they don't really implement is how do I bring more value to into the marketplace so that there is a means of exchange between me and other people, companies, countries, organizations? Do you agree with that? Do you agree with that? I'm going to give you a little bonus secret of millionaire mindset. All right? I want to give you a bonus millionaire mindset. But first, let me know, do you agree with that premise? Money is a means of exchange. And. And the more value that I could bring in the marketplace to exchange my product, my service, my knowledge, my skills, the more money I can make. So would it make sense that millionaires and multimillionaires are consistently trying to figure out, how do I bring more value to the marketplace? Right? How do I bring more value to the marketplace? So I'll give you a perfect example. Every Tuesday, I do this live training. I don't charge for it. Sometimes we offer my books or programs or services, right? But for the most part, I'm just bringing value to the marketplace to help as many people as possible. And then people follow my work, and then they say, oh, what book do you have? Oh, what program do you have? Oh, what coaching or consulting do you have? And then they want to be involved because there's a means of exchange. So that's, number one I'm going to give you here. Somebody write down this bonus little secret. Bonus little secret. I wrote that down. All right? But first I want you to know, just give me a little feedback that. That makes total sense. Give me a like or a love over here. Give me a little type something that says, john, that makes total sense. And I'll give you a bonus little secret. And I wrote. I wrote this one down just a few minutes ago. Okay? This this one is actually something just popped into my head just a few minutes ago. So millionaires and multimillionaires, and I want to read this, they focus on getting rich fast versus getting rich quick. Getting rich fast versus getting rich quick. Can anybody tell me what the difference is between getting rich fast versus getting rich quick? What's the difference? What's the difference in the mindset? Somebody who's trying to get rich quick versus somebody who's trying to get rich fast. Anybody help me out here? Let's do a little participation, okay? The more you participate, the more excited I get, the more I want to share, right? So getting rich quick versus getting rich fast. All of my millionaire and multimillionaire and a couple of billionaire friends, they're not trying to come up or find some get rich quick scheme or where. They are trying to find some kind of a gimmick, right? A lot of people out there that don't have wealth are not millionaires. They are trying to come up with some kind of a gimmick versus some kind of a process that can work faster because it is predictable, right? So getting rich quick, right, Is some kind of a gimmick in my mind. And getting rich fast, okay, implies to me some kind of a process that's predictable, right? It's a way of thinking of how can I do it faster and sustainable. Do you agree with that? I came up with that just a little bit ago, and I was just thinking, I'm going to give you that as a bonus one. Like, I'm not thinking about getting rich quick schemes. I'm always thinking when somebody says to me, hey, do you want to make some money really? You know, really quick with this, with this gimmick, I'm like, stay away from that. But if you can show me how to not make mistakes, if you can show me a plan, if you can show me a process, if you can show me how to manage my risk, then I'm looking at that. Is this helpful so far? If it is, give me a like or a love, because I love doing this, right? All right, so. Hi, Carlo. Hi, Kathy, Veronica, Diane Nog Seeker says Georgie. Hi, Georgie. Hi, Nina. Hi, Becky. Hi, Becky. Hi, Becky. Hi, Becky. All right, let me go to number two. Can any of you give me a secret that you have discovered around a millionaire mindset or the three secrets of a millionaire? Like, give me one of yours. If you type it in, all right, then you're going to see a whole bunch of other people's ideas. So we can do a little Mastermind right now, right? Hi. Tara. Lee. All right. Hi, fearless Rhea. Rhea. Hi there. Hi, Georgie girl. Connie. All right, so give me one of yours. So why don't you share with me, like, what's a secret, okay. Of millionaires? What do you think a secret of a millionaire is? Right. They don't work for money is one that just came up. Well, some work for money, but then they also have money work for them. Right? So there's, there's that. So consistency. Yeah. Give me, give me a little feedback. All right. Give me a little feedback. Hello there. Hey, Carvalhato from Brazil. Millionaires see opportunities while others see problems. I like that, I like that. All right. So good, good, good, good. Saving with and being intentional with your money. I like that. Millionaires know their value proposition. They know their why. Awesome. Yeah. By the way, if you feel like sharing this, just hit the share button. Being a lifelong learner, Affirmation. They have good habits. Yeah. These are all good little secrets. Good. They all have mentors. Martina. Yeah. Positive all the time. They're not positive all the time. Becky. But they tend to get back to positivity. Everybody's positive and negative sometimes. Right. So finding problems and solving them, the process is important. Time management. They build systems and processes. Mike Edwards. I'm sorry, it's going so fast. I love it. I love it, I love it. Natalie. Millionaires are committed, right? CEO Jay. My secret is knowing that they want not jumping into every business. Focus on priority action. Felicia. Great one. They focus on priority actions. You're getting way more than three because now we're masterminding and helping each other here. Let me give you one that has come up a lot lately that I know for sure. It's the way I think and I learned how to think this way many, many years ago. But it's also a little secret on how our brain works. How many of you are fascinated with how your brain works and how to use it better? Because if you are, I'm going to share something with you. I'm going to ask my team to put up a link for you, if you like, on Thursday at 5 o'. Clock. Thursday. This Thursday at 5 o', clock, I'm going to do an elongated training or a longer training called how to Develop the Mindset of a Millionaire so you can start earning like one. Can somebody type that in? How to develop the Mindset of a Millionaire so you can start earning like one. I'm going to give you a free link. I'm going to do some training and then I'm also going to introduce you to something called Seven Days to a Millionaire Mindset. So I'll have my team put up a link for you right now. Join me for a longer training, about 75 minutes. But let me go to number two and that is this. This is something I, I can't tell you. I've been through four recessions, right? And what I learned in the first one was this. No matter what is happening around me, I can earn money. No matter what. Let me repeat that. And you can use this, by the way, as a what, an affirmation. No matter what is happening around me, I can earn money. No matter what is happening around me, I can earn money. So what does that involve? Let me share something with you. When there are things that are happening in the market, okay, you lose your job, you get furloughed, business goes under, the interest rates go up, tens of thousands of businesses close. Millionaires are adaptationists. They're adaptationists, they're changeologists. They believe that just because the outside circumstances change doesn't mean that they can't earn a lot of money. They understand that just because the circumstances change. The way I think is when times get really tough, the, and take this the right way, the weak minded and the under skilled, the weak minded and the under skilled, they get paralyzed with fear and uncertainty and doubt. But the people who believe, all right, that they can make money no matter what the circumstances are, they adapt and change. And because there's less competition, they're able to make more. Do you believe that? Do you believe that? I have friends that have been making a fortune in the last 120 days. Our business has doubled in the last 120 days. Now I don't want to say that to make you feel bad, but we adapted and changed and changed and adapted and we still are changing and adapting. But what happens is when so many people are fearful, what happens? They actually are freezing. They're uncertain. They don't know what to do. They fall back to their what, to their traditional habits of wait and see what happens. But millionaires don't wait to see what happens. I mean, of course we analyze, we observe, we look for trends and patterns, but it is a fundamental belief of almost all millionaires and multimillionaires that have earned their millions, that have earned their millions, that no matter what is happening around them, all right, they are able to earn money. And that's why you see this disparity in of income. Does that make sense to you? Right. So if you've just Joined us. The first one we talked about is money is a means of exchange. So as a person in the marketplace, your job is to see how you can exchange your product, your knowledge, your service, etc. With others that want to pay you for it. And then we side bonus was focusing on getting rich fast versus getting rich quick schemes. Okay, so those are the first two or that was the first one with a bonus one. And the second one was, no matter what is happening around me, I can earn money no matter what. It just doesn't make a difference. The outside world doesn't make a difference. I am an adaptationist. I'm giving you a couple of affirmations right now, right? No matter what is happening around me, I can earn as much money as I choose. Why don't you start saying that every single day? When you say that every single day, you're actually priming your brain to open up, okay, the perspective part of your brain to see all of the opportunities that are around you. So can somebody type this out? No matter what is happening around me, I can earn as much income as I choose. Okay, then. In the worst of times, the best opportunities arise. In the worst of times, the best opportunities arise. Right. And I rise when others fail. In the worst of times, the best opportunities arise. And I rise when others fail. Now, when you have these affirmations and these beliefs, if you truly believe what we just talked about. So thank you, Aaron. Meg Queen. Right. So when you have this fundamental belief in this fundamental millionaire mindset, do you think that if you believe that in the worst of times, the best opportunities arise? And I rise when others fail? Now, what I didn't say is I rise, therefore others fail. What I did say is, while that's happening, I rise. What if you had that belief? What if you had that belief, do you think that belief would drive your perspective, your emotions and your behaviors? Do you think that belief, okay. Would open up your mind to the opportunities that are here right now? Here's a question for you. Are there opportunities right now? Are there opportunities right now in one of the worst situations we have been in since we have been born? Right, Sridhar? Thank you. No matter what is happening around me, I earn whatever amount of money I choose. Is it true that right now there are so many opportunities? Are there going to be opportunities in the stock market and have people made money in the stock market in the last 60 days? 90 days? Yes. Are there going to be opportunities in the real estate market because of all this uncertainty? Yes. In commercial and residential. Are there going to be opportunities for smart business owners to take advantage of the situation that's happening right now. Yes. Now the question is, are you sitting on the sidelines, hoping, praying, dreaming and wishing, or are you taking action? Are you upgrading your knowledge? Are you upgrading your skills? Are you taking advantage of the opportunities that are here and everywhere right now? See, if you're not, the question is why? Like, why? And the answer is going to be because of something that's going on in here, right? So you either have fear, fear of failure, fear of disappointing yourself, fear of being embarrassed, ashamed, ridiculed, or judged. Either you feel like you have doubt or uncertainty. Whatever it is, it's a mindset, Right? It's a mindset. So in the worst of times, the best opportunities arise. And what I want you to start thinking about is how do I rise while others are freezing? While others. I don't mean freezing cold. I mean freezing within action. Right, Right. And so that is some of the thinking that goes on. Everyone that I know that is successful right now is focusing on solutions versus the problem. They're focusing on how they can and why they must versus why they can't or shouldn't. Is that not just a little switch in your mindset? Is that not the razor's edge, the difference, right, between highly successful millionaires and people that don't have the financial freedom? Is that razor's edge? Not in here. Every brain works the exact same way, barring obviously, some genetic predispositions or anomalies. But 99.9% of brains work the same way. So why not train your brain, all right, to think like a millionaire, right? Why not train your emotions to empower you versus disempower you? Why not learn the skills required? Since all of the how to already exists right now, why not level up your skills to focus on all the opportunities that are here right now? So if you want to learn how to develop the mindset of a millionaire and start earning like one right now, join me for my live training as well on Thursday where I'll show you some more techniques. I'll talk to you a little bit about the Einstein brain and how to activate your genius Einstein brain and how to deactivate that Frankenstein brain that I call so that you can actually light up. It's a part of your brain called the left prefrontal cortex, which I call the genius part of your brain that's tied to your behavioral circuits, etc. So if you want to join me, my team will put up a link for you to be able to do that. And the training is free. And I'll also introduce you to my seven Days to a Millionaire mindset program as well that I just released and I'll tell you more about that on Thursday. So listen, here's what I can share with you. Millionaires think differently, they behave differently, they recover differently, they adapt differently, they change what they're doing fast, fast, fast, fast, while most people get stuck and are paralyzed. So I want you to get unstuck if you want to. I want you to start using more of your potential that's already within you. If you want to become a millionaire or multimillionaire, you can be, but it has to start with your thinking differently. It has to continue with your emotions, on how you feel about certain things and not allow outside circumstances to control you. You have to control yourself and adapt to the circumstances that make sense. All right, there is another one of my achieve even more shows every Tuesday. I am live right here. I'm doing Instagram Live and Facebook Live. And I want everybody to have financial freedom. Not because it's about having more money, it's about more choice, less stress, more time off, more time to do the things you love to do with the people that you love to do. More money to give to the charities. Listen, our charities need us right now. Whatever charity you support, whatever cause touches your heart, whether it's children, animals, the ocean, you want to have more money to do more good, right? Money is a tool for us to all live well, which I love, as well as do more good. Do you agree with that? Do you agree that the purpose of money. All right. Is to live well and to do more good for others and for our beautiful blue planet. If you agree, give me a John. Yes, I agree. And then share this. Let's share this. Let's help everybody earn more so they can have more, give more, be more. And that would make me and hopefully you happy. Alright? So more freedom, choice, freedom time, freedom, emotional freedom to do what you want to do with who you want to do it. Life is so precious, right? Let's eat it all up and have big smiles and warm hearts and let's lift each other up as we climb. I'm climbing. I want to lift you up, you climb, lift others up. We're in this together. So the more we help each other, the more we get helped, right? Life is always going to give back to you what you put out. So many of you know me from the movie the Secret and the Law of Attraction, but there's also another law called the law of reciprocity. And so whatever you give out there, here's one of my beliefs, here's a little bonus for you. You cannot out give the universe. Let me repeat, you cannot out give the universe. And I want you to start thinking of giving, okay? Not trading give because it's the right thing to do. It's the right energetic vibration. It's the right field. When you give to the field, to people, to whatever it is, it works like a boomerang. You just keep getting more back. So be a go giver and be a go getter. Be a go giver and be a go getter.
