T. Harv Eker 'Secrets of the Millionaire Mind'

"You can have all the knowledge and skills in the world, but if your "blueprint" isn't set for success, you're financially doomed." --T. Harv Eker

I'd been reading 2 books every month as part of my ongoing financial education. And typically, I will read them if I'm on a tour. In July-August when I was in Taipei, I read Adam Khoo 'Secrets of Self-Made Millionaires' and I bought (and read) a Chinese book there about the way of Investing by Warren Buffett.

And over the past 6 days, I just read T. Harv Eker 'Secrets of the Millionaire Mind' and Nicholas Tan 'Handbook of Forex Trading' The forex book is rather elementary and I recommend to those who know nuts about trading (it only covers the fundamental of forex and some trading basics - which I think personally will start your forex trading journey, but not able to propel it any further).

Anyway, what I'm interested now is to share more about Eker book. The #1 New York Times, Wall Street Journal and USA Today Bestseller is definitely one book for reshaping your millionaire mindset. There are 2 major sections: (1) Your Money Blueprint, and (2) The Wealth Files.

Eker likes to ask 'Who the heck is T. Harv Eker, and Why Should I Read This Book?'. I think the answer is simple. Many of us want to be a millionaire and mastering the inner game of wealth is definitely not an obvious science! This book really demystifies why some people are destined to be rich while others, hmm, otherwise.

Definitely one of the more powerful, persuasive, and practical wealth management / personal improvement / NLP book!



p/s: I will talk more about this book as I discover more about it.

Live A Simpler Life

Many relate wealth as the ability to have a luxurious life! That's a myth, at least to me. If you make big money and you spend a big bulk of it, how can accumulate great wealth in the shortest possible time?

In actual fact, I realise a rich person normally (but but all the time) spend so much lesser and utilize what around him/her as much as possible. If he's part of the top management, he may use the company fund to get a car or go to the posh restaurant. If he buy a expensive watch (those like Cortina, The Hour Glass etc) or a luxurious apartment, he may be buying it to invest.

He only use his money to pamper his loved one (family, parents etc). He buy only the essential (apartment, and basic wants (car, TV, computers etc). He will only start' spending big money if his income is so much more than his spending.

Spend more time with your loved ones and don't be blinded by your materialistic pursuits. Save your money (so that you won't have spare cash to spend excessively). Live The Simple Life!
