F irst, I would like to thank you for picking up this book.


Your investment of time and money in reading this book
only means that you know you can and deserve to make a lot
more money and achieve greater wealth in your life.
You know that you can achieve the wealth that will allow you to
experience the freedom and security that you deserve. Money that
will allow you to live the lifestyle of your dreams, to do what you
truly love, to buy what you have always wanted, to share it with the
people you care about and to make the world a better place through
your generosity.
Well, I have great news for you. You already have in your
possession, the greatest money making asset that you will ever need.

universities. And no, it’s not the inheritance the ‘lucky’ get from
rich dad, rich uncle or rich grandma to kick-start their business.
No, this asset is so powerful that it will not just give you a
4% return like the bank or even a 20% return which you would
expect from the stock market. This asset has the potential to give
you infinite returns. In fact, it can, if passionately developed, give
you a 1000% return on your time investment.
The asset I am talking about is something that all of us have
been given at birth. It is an asset that all of us have in common.

So there you have it, an overview of the seven steps that you
must take towards financial abundance. Let’s begin to learn each of
the steps in depth, starting with...

I n this chapter, we are going to be exploring the million-dollar


mindset, the first in the Seven Step Formula to Financial
Abundance! Before learning the specific strategies and techniques
of how to make and multiply your money, your mind must first be
conditioned to wealth!
Remember, millionaires think and see the world very differently!
Where most people see problems, those with the millionaire’s
mindset see money-making opportunities. Where you see failure,
the millionaire sees a valuable learning experience that will lead to
greater opportunities and wealth.
Unless you have the millionaire’s mindset, you will never be
able to see the limitless money-making opportunities around you.
Without the millionaire’s mindset, you will not have the focus, drive
and determination to take the massive action necessary to implement
the ideas and strategies I am going to share with you.
Wealth must first be created in the mind before it can be
manifested into physical reality. You must first be mentally wealthy
before you can attract physical wealth. It has been proven time
and again that people who have the millionaire’s mindset are
able to attract and create fabulous wealth, even though they had
started with absolutely nothing. Some even had all the odds stacked
against them.
Such millionaire-minds, even if they suffer a major failure like
bankruptcy or business failure and end up deep in debt, are able
to bounce back and what’s more make back their losses plus more,
within a short space of time.
