I have always heard the story of how a book can change people’s lives. And I hope that one day, I can read a book that can change my life for the better too. Now, when I think back, there was a book that totally inspired and changed my life, and it is a book by John Assaraf, called Having It All.
Like many other youngsters, I started to learn about achieving success when I was in my secondary school.
When my brother was involved in network marketing, which was a hot part-time business at that time. He then shared a book with me called Rich Dad Poor Dad, written by the famous Robert Kiyosaki.
Now, I know that you have probably read the book too because the book was selling like hotcakes and everyone was talking about reading Rich Dad. That was many years ago.
It is true that the book, Rich Dad Poor Dad was the one that opened my mind to the idea of achieving financial freedom, but what totally inspired me to achieve success in life is the book written by John Assaraf, called “Having It All”.
What you want is a result. You have to change your mindset if you want a different result.
I was a naïve young guy then, but Having It All changed the way I think about success and taught me a lot about having the right mindset.
As you already know, what you think, you become.
It is your mindset that shapes your life. This quote below says it best:
“Sow a thought, reap a word; sow a word, reap a deed; sow a deed, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny.”
It all begins in your head.
When you have the mindset of a millionaire, you will think, make decisions, and act like a millionaire.
On the other hand, if you have the mindset of a mediocre person, you will think, make decisions, and act like a mediocre person.
Therefore, if you want to change your life and the results you get, you must first change your mindset.
I love the way Harv Eker, the best-selling author of Secrets of The Millionaire Mind puts it. This is what he said in the book:
“Imagine a tree. Let’s suppose this tree represents the tree of life. On this tree there are fruits. In life, our fruits are called our results. So we look at the fruits (our results) and we don’t like them; there aren’t enough of them, they’re too small, or
they don’t taste good.So what do we tend to do? Most of us put even more attention and focus on the fruits, our results. But what is it that actually creates those particular fruits? It’s the seeds and the roots that create those fruits.
It’s what’s under the ground that creates what’s above the ground. It’s what’s invisible that creates what’s visible. So what does that mean? It means that if you want to change the fruits, you will first have to change the roots. If you want to change the visible, you must first change the invisible.”
My friend, you have to understand that money is a result, wealth is a result, health is a result, illness is a result, and your weight too, is a result.
And if you want to change the result, you must first change the root cause, which is your mindset and the way you think.
This is why reading is so important because if you are not reading and learning, you are not improving yourself. You are not exposing yourself to the right mindset that can change your life.
In other words, the lack of money and success is not a problem. Yes, it is not a problem at all.
A lack of money and success is merely a symptom of what is going on underneath, your inner world.
Whatever results you are getting, be they rich or poor, positive or negative, you have to understand that your life, your outer world, or your result is simply a reflection of your inner world.
Therefore, if you want to change your life and the result that you are getting, you must first change the way you think.
You must change your inner world in order to change your outer world.
So how can you change yourself to be a better person that is worthy of success?
One of the simplest ways is to learn from other successful people.
This is why I recommend going through the Having It All program, where John Assaraf will take you by the hands and show you what’s possible.
The key is that you need a mentor. You need a guide to get you where you want to go. And John can be the right person.
And thanks to technology, John has totally transformed Having It All from a book into a full learning program that is much more effective.
When you go to Having It All website, you will be able to watch a presentation from John where he explained why some people are able to successfully achieved their goals while others fail.
He shared a free 3-video course where you are going to learn why you must gain clarity and focus on your goals before you can achieve them.
Not just that, John also explained the science of motivation where you can learn the proven techniques that can greatly help you in achieving what you really want in life.
Besides, the S+T+T process shared by John is also a great method to simplify your goals. After you went through the process, you will have absolute clarity and understand what you need to tackle to hit your goals.
When I first came across Having It All, it was a physical book filled with insightful and inspirational information and techniques that changed my life.
Today, John Assaraf is able to share his knowledge and expertise with the world in a more effective way through video lessons.
Thus, I strongly suggest you watch the video from John right now.
I always believe in continuous learning. That is why I read at least 2 books a month.
Seriously, I found that one of the best ways to achieve great success in life, be it financially, in your health, career, or business, is to adopt the character of never-ending improvement.
The more you learn, the better you become. The better you become, the more you can accomplish.
And it all starts with your thinking.
Hence, read as much great and inspiration materials as possible.
Of course, don’t forget to watch the free video training from John Assaraf too.
If the Having It All can inspire me to achieve greater success in life, I believe that it can do the same to you as well.
