Have you ever wondered why some people seem to get rich easily, while others are destined for a life of financial struggle? Is the difference found in their education, intelligence, skills, timing, work habits, contacts, luck, or their choice of jobs, businesses, or investment...more

"Who The Heck is T. Harv Eker and Why Should I Read This Book?" is the title of the first chapter. I won't give away the secret, but I'll tell you this much: T.H. Eker is worth millions. That's why you should read this book.
The book is divided into two parts: 1) Your Money Blueprint and 2) The Wealth Files: Seventeen Ways Rick People Think AND Act Differently From Poor and Middle-Class People. We'll skip Part One and go straight to Part Two.

This was a nice, light read yet very thought-provoking in terms of examining my own beliefs about money and wealth.
I don't mind Harv's promotion of his seminars - after all, this book is but one product of his highly successful seminar company. It's perfectly logical to me that he underline that if one enjoys this book and wants to delve deeper into its subject matter, then the seminars are extentions of the book that allow you to go further. If you don't love it, then take what you like and lea...more

Yes, I really did read it, the whole damn thing. I'm in a business coaching group and one of the other members was raving about it, so I figured it was worth a try.
It starts out with a very interesting perspective, looking at how our thought and behavior patterns around money are formed by our childhood experiences, particularly seeing what our parents did (which we later either replicate or rebel against). That gave me something to think about: my parents both grew up at the tail end of the dep...more

This short (3-hours in audio) book is about developing the mindset required to become rich. The author defends the wealthy lifestyle, then provides motivation and action steps to become rich yourself. There’s nothing novel; the advice is common to financial self-help books: take responsibility for your life, have an abundance mindset, set high goals, own your own business, specialize, serve others, and earn passively.
The author focuses on monetary riches, not general wealth or happiness, which o...more

Nice light holiday reading. Not really ... more like thought provoking and new year resolution plotting. This book had a few "ah has" for me which makes it a good reference book for the future.
Specifically I liked the idea of putting 10% of your earnings to put away to save for investing and another 10% into a savings or "spend" account. I think I need to look at the Canadian Tax Free Savings Account (which pays a high interest rate) to save for vacations and have the second one earning interest...more

Secrets of the Millionaire Mind - Being true to your mission
This is from the book - Secrets of the Millionaire Mind.
"Your life is not just about you. It's also about contributing to others. It's about living true to your mission and reason for being here on this earth at this time. It's about adding your piece of the puzzle to the world. Most people are so stuck to their egos that everything revolves around me, me, and more me.

This book has quite a few useful pointers towards leading one in the direction of amassing money. Though the author insists that to be successful you will need to totally commit to creating wealth no matter the cost and effort.
A main theme of the book is comparing the way rich people think to the way middle-class and poor people think, and I can easily see the truth of these postulates. Moreover, it is specked with various highlighted and useful wealth principles. Here is one of them "Rich peopl...more

Great book full of practical ideas. The best part I liked is the Money Management System. What i didn't like is the excessive referring to The Millionaire Mind Intensive Seminar. The author refers people to it too many times throughout the book.
Here's what I learned from this book:
- Your income can grow only to the extent that you do.
- The Law of Income: You will be paid in direct proportion to the value you deliver according to the marketplace.
- It’s time to stop hiding out and start stepping o...more

Gordan Gekko would love this book because Time is the prime Asset:
The most valuable part for me was Wealth File #11 "Rich People choose to get paid based on results, Poor People choose to get paid based on time". Just like Gordan Gekko said in Wall Street: Money Never Sleeps
"the one thing I learned in jail is that money is not the prime asset in life. Time is."

The author's premise is that each of us has a financial blueprint that determines how much wealth we acquire and keep. (who makes this stuff up?)
His premise is that a person can increase one's 'blueprint' if one thinks and acts like a wealthy person.
The second part of the book is the explanation of the 17 most important differences in the way a rich person thinks compared to the way a poor person thinks.
There is just enough truth in this book to make it believable and appealing to some folks. Th...more

I have to say I was a bit skeptical of this book at first, thinking-- I'm not just in it for money. But I discovered that is a particular mindset (or money blueprint as the book calls it). This book is all about having a positive attitude and believing that you deserve good things and learning how to draw success towards you. Basically, you have to work on your inner self first, otherwise you will never be happy even with money and you will probably lose it. I like the idea of learning to put a...more
من أفضل الكتب اللي قرأتها في هذا المجال إن لم يكن أفضلها على الإطلاق
الكاتب لديه إسلوب فريد ومحفز جداً
الكتاب مفيد حتى للي مو مهتمين في مجال التجارة والثروة لإنه يتكلم عن مبادئي أساسية تقريباً نقدر نطبقها على جميع مجالات الحياة
وتصنفيه وترتيبه للأفكار جداً رائع وإستنتاجاته مذهلة
وأكثر هالأفكار تتطابق مع ما ذكرها الدكتور صلاح الراشد كـ قوانين للكون ، مثل قانون الجذب وقانون الوفرة وغيرها من القوانين اللي فصّل فيها الدكتور في برنامجه رسالة من الكون
راح أكتب ملخص كامل عنه إن شاء الله في المدونة قريباً

I seriously loved this book. If you liked "Think and Grow Rich" or "Rich Dad, Poor Dad", you probably will too.
Let's get past what might bother some people:
-there's a good bit of promotion for Eker's seminars.
-there is a very black and white view of people (rich and poor). To be fair, though, Eker points out this himself, explains that he is using it as an illustrating tool, and (some people miss this) tries to help the reader understand that he is not talking about rich/poor people but rich-poo...more

I rated this book a high 4 star. I don't simply agree to what the author, T. Harv Eker, said in this book, but I believe he was able to layout some important principles in this book that changed my money blueprint. In addition to wealth principles, he also explains how rich people think and act differently compared to others.
There is no shortcut to becoming rich. It will always require hard work. However, changing your mindset about wealth will definitely put you in the right track to handling y...more

الحكمة الأساسية التي اصطدمت بها في هذا الكتاب تقول" لا تأخذ دروس الثراء من المدرسين، بل تعلم ممن أصبح ثرياً" .
هذا الكتاب من أروع الكتب التي قد تعيد صياغة منظورك للنجاح بشكل عام وللمال بشكل خاص .
يقوم الكاتب بإعطائك جرعات من الأفكار والمعتقدات الإيجابية ولذلك لإيمانه أن" الأشياء تنجذب إلى ما يشبهها" ، فإذا كانت معتقداتك إيجابية سيكون سلوكك إيجابياً، وستحصل على نتائج إيجابية.

Love T. Harv, he is funny! This is a nice little 'kick in the pants' type book. I'm very partial to tough love learning and so I like his writing style. He combines humor, tough love, and some very interesting facts about your subconscious to let you know that you deserve more in life. He is also a master at advertising and marketing so you may find yourself inundated with the little ads for his seminars, but who can blaim him? I mean, if you read all the testimonials from his sites and books yo...more
Some prosperity books deal with practicals, others deal with mindset. Secrets of the Millionaire Mind is one of the rare ones that links the two together.
The basis of the books is this formula: Beliefs --> Thoughts --> Feelings --> Actions = Results.
Where many people go wrong in wealth attraction is that they work on the actions. They believe that if they do the right things, they'll get the money.
But you will always act in a way that's consistent with what you believe. Unless you get y...more

Dearest reader, Who has not wished for a better life, a bigger bank account and just simply a happier life? So many of us. Mr. Eker shows us how simple it is to apply wealth principles to our lives. Have a look at the results in your life. Do you like them? Do you want to change them? Do you understand that you are responsible for everything in your life? Gear yourself towards believing that you are everything - and more - than we have been taught to believe. Go for gold, and beyond. Either one...more
Pay attention to your thinking. Discover and correct any difficult or negative underlying patterns in your relationship with money. Diversify your income. Change your habits. "Buy into" the theory or not, but after implementing just a couple of the suggestions in this book, I am now on my way to starting a second and third business while continuing to grow my first business during this recession. The writing style is really irritating and cheesy, but the content is solid. He's also a smartass, b...more

Extremely valuable book. We must learn from the people who walked this earth before us so we don't reinvent the wheel. Learning to think like a successful person takes time to override our current 'mental wealth files'

This book may warrant a second read for me, but only a 3-star rating. I disagree with spending to feel rich. He uses status spending as a means to the "millionaire mindset" but this is not something most people need help with. Too many people already spend more than they are worth. This and a few other concepts aside, content is decent. Worthwhile advice on redesigning your financial blueprint, particularly important is his call to open and unified financial discussions and goals within marriage...more

This book provides great insight into how you think about money and rich people in general. This book will help you change your "blueprint" and allow you take control of your financial life. It is written in conversational tone that lets you feel that Harv is talking directly to you. I have read it 8 times and make it a habit to reread it each year as a "tune-up". Even my husband, who can't stand reading non-fiction self-help books, managed to not only get through this one, but loved it.

Ya gotta love Harv Eker. He’s a witty, outgoing self-made millionaire with little tolerance for BS. His direct approach, affinity for storytelling, and humorous twists of phrase make this book entertaining and easy to read. And he’s got a method for millions that quite likely works for others of his temperament. Just about anyone can find a thing or two (or more!) in this book that will improve their financial life. This fact makes it a worthwhile read.

This book has some key points when comparing rich people versus poor people. It's a good book to get you thinking about where you want to be in the future and is a great motivator. Personally, I had never heard of the author and it appears he makes most of his money through his seminars. Most of the time, such seminars are run by crooks in my opinion. I have also found a lot of the information contained in this book can be found in other books just like it. If you have read a lot of those books,...more
Very interesting and helpful perspective. The author discusses our 'money blueprint' - again, this resonates with Jungian archetypes - and the way it subconsciously affects our every decision related to money. What I love about this book is that it approaches and debunks many of my subconscious stances and beliefs about money and rich people that do not serve me (to say the least). The author points out 17 main differences between the mentalities of rich people and poor people and suggests what...more
