# How to become wealthy

# How to develop mentorships, friendships, and strategic partnerships with nearly anyone you want
# 1. Create a wealth vision
You continually create and write your vision — every single day.
Having a vision is focused on the future.
Having a vision for your life means you no longer care what other people think of you.
The more detailed your vision the better. The more quantifiable your vision the better.
- Got a rational, knowledgeable, healthy girl friend before January 1 2020;
- Got 100 0000 yuan before September 1 2020;
- Got a muscle body before January 1 2020;
- Be a Positive and Active one;
- Experience and meet more fascinating beauties and people.
- Updated to new level. New me.
# 2. Develop a 90-day system for measuring progress/future pacing
- “Winning Achievements? Looking back over the past quarter, what are the things that make you the proudest about what you have achieved?”
- “What’s Hot? When you look at everything that’s going on today, which areas of focus and progress are making you the most confident?”
- “Bigger and Better? Now, looking ahead at the next quarter, what new things are giving you the greatest sense of excitement?”
- “What are the five new ‘jumps’ you can now achieve that will make your next 90 days a great quarter regardless of what else happens?”
Short-term goals are how you build progress. Working toward a timeline is crucial for productivity. Focusing on only a few key milestones each 90 days is how you build momentum.
# 3. Develop a daily routine to live in a flow/peak state
“A lot of people think we are creatures of habit but we’re not. We are creatures of environment.” — Roger Hamilton
Design your environment to get into flow. Flow comes when you just let it happen.
Morning routines:
- Change your environment to change your mindset.
- Begin visualizing and imagining your desired future.
- Affirm powerfully to yourself that you are going to achieve that future.
If you’re going to be a millionaire, you need to start acting like one now.
Acting a different role changes your brain
# 4. Design your environment for clarity, recovery, and creativity
- Reshape your environment.
- Matches the future you plan to create.
- Not only resonates with your values and vision, but also propels your values and vision.
# 5. Focus on results, not habits or processes
Rather than obsessing about the habits and processes, you want to gain clarity on the result you want, and then reverse-engineer how to achieve it.
It is the goal that determines the process, not the other way around.
If you’re not getting the desired result, then you need to adjust your process.
In reality, your goal is the process. You set a goal and that goal organizes your life. Once you hit it, you then set a new goal that re-organizes your life.
Goals are the means, not the end. They are means to growth and progress. Once you hit a goal, you take what you’ve learned and continue expanding.
# 6. Identify ideal mentors/partners
You create a job by providing opportunities to ideal people you want to learn from and work with.
You develop mentorships and partnerships by being useful. You dedicate your thoughts and efforts to helping them. By helping them, you position yourself in a unique place.
# 7. Become a brilliant listener and observer
It’s better to ask thoughtful questions.
# 8. Focus on who instead of how
Rather than trying to do the how yourself, you find the who to take care of the how.
What are you trying to accomplish? Why is it so important? This is how you get people excited and committed.
You need to start building a team. And like everything else, you want to do that before you feel ready. Because in truth, you’re never ready before you start. You’re never pre-qualified to do anything. It is always the leap itself and then working through the process that qualifies you.
# 9. Continually update your values/definition of success
“If you’re not [different from] who you were 12 months ago, you didn’t learn enough.”
Transformative experiences can change your life. Similarly, transformative relationships can change your life.
You can design your focus so that your external environment triggers what you want to see.
What you pay attention to is what you value.
You want to set goals around the values you aspire to have. You want to create routines and an environment that bring those values to the forefront of your attention. Your input shapes your outlook. You then want to live out those values daily. Then, you want to regularly have experiences which upgrade, expand, and refine those values.
# 10. Don’t wait too long when you know it’s time to change
Goals are means, not ends. Once you’ve achieved something big, don’t get stuck there just because it worked before.
Elon Musk is a powerful exception. You never hear Elon Musk talk about the Paypal days. Instead, you hear him talking about the problems he’s currently solving and the vision he is currently pursuing.
He’s not stuck in the past. Instead, he’s using all of his past experiences to propel bigger and bigger results and goals and challenges.
He’s always growing, transforming, changing, striving. This is a very healthy approach to life.
# Conclusion
“Become a millionaire not for the million dollars, but for what it will make of you to achieve it.”
A fundamental part of conscious evolution is learning to control and direct your attention — so that you can shine that spotlight onto what you want, rather than what you’ve been conditioned to want. Fundamental to that is updating your environment and values, since these things center your attention.
