During the last 5 years Ive coached a number of people for free on making money.
Here are somethings Ive found, that self-help books and gurus seldom talk about.

1. People who dont make money has their brain on IDLE mode. Few people actually use their brain to think.
If you use your brainpower to solve business problems 16 hours a day you get pretty smart, skilled and rich fast.
Poor=average people waste their brain power on drama, thinking about food, sex, angry thoughts, happy thoughts, dogs, cats you get the point

2. Your intelligence level, I found that people at or below average IQ have a hard time making money.
If you are below average iq I advice you to stick to a job (grow a dick and focus on other things in life),
if you are average go for something fairly simple and repetitive such as cashflowing real estate.
If you are over 130 in IQ you can try any type of high risk business.

3. Self-help only gets you so far.
While books like Think and Grow Rich are awesome I havent seen any correlation between people reading it and their success.
I see people who become naturally good with making money live these principals without being aware of them doing it, they learned it the real way thou.
I find that people who only learns about the principals from books never really gets it. Much like reading pick up theory without actually approaching.

4. Hang out with rich people, stay away from poor as if they had ebola. Their presence will infect you without you being aware of it, much like ebola.

5. Once you've got the hang of it you can retire and still make money.
I came to that point when I was in my mid 20's. Since then I have hardly worked and my fortune has grown from 1 to 6 mil and Ive given myself an allowance of 10 k per month.

6. Conventional motivation is BS.
If you want real motivation, you have to have constant dopamin release attached to small successes, so much that you get addicted to it.
Just like playing computer games can be addictive so can business if set up in a similar dopamin rewarding fashion.

I agree with anything you say, besides the book thing.

I wasn't born gifted with the mindset I have today. I inherited a faulty mindset, thought patterns and habits from my depressed dad, resulting in me being depressed, anxious and having intrusive thoughts. Spent all my childhood and teens being a sad little excuse of a man and one of the books that helped me a lot was 7 habits of highly effective people.

But the problem is people don't want to change, and when these books don't "work" they blame them. I knew I had to change everything about my mindset if I wanted to become mentally healthy, and I adopted the mindset within the book. It's the same values I live by today. The book was the catalyst, but you're right, I didn't read it and was then suddenly fixed. It literally took years of hard work, daily working on changing the programming within my brain. Difficult as hell, but anyone with the proper motivation could do it. My motivation was that I never wanted to feel like that again, but when I reached "mentally healthy" I didn't stop there, and to this day I keep improving myself. The same reason I feel a burning desire to conquer the world lol.

Point is, the brain can be changed and if you started with below average IQ you can increase it. If you want enough.

Good post.
