How To Make A Million Dollars The Easy Way
By SaiF on Apr 26, 2008 in Gurus, law of attraction
Wherever you are in your life right now, I’m very sure that you are doing something you’re passionate about - be it a main or side activity. But do you know how to make it into something that you can profit from? Watch this:
You might already know that Jim Rohn was a farm boy, as he mentioned in this video.
And I am so happy and grateful that he was because he is living proof that every single one of us in this capitalist society can rise to the top.
“The Question Is Not Can You, It’s Will You?”
About a month ago, I was watching a video of Tony Robbins’ old seminar and that’s exactly what he said.
I don’t know about you, but hearing him say that created a paradigm shift in me instantaneously! Just like that, I was “converted.”
I don’t know if I’ve told you this before (maybe I wrote it in the new extraordinary book I’m writing now) but I think the best thing you can realise is that YOU ARE ENOUGH.
Think about it. Throughout these 4 months, I’ve written about the 17-year-old millionaire, Tyler Dikman and the 14-year-old-millionaire Farrah Gray and of course there’s tons of other (older) millionaires!
What I’m trying to say here is this: I used to think that I was too young to be a millionaire. But tell that to Tyler Dikman and especially Farrah Gray! Farrah Gray came from a poor family in the Projects! Not to mention his age! Yet he still became a millionaire because he understood something.
He understood that we should never, and I mean NEVER give up on our dreams because of our circumstances.
Remember the equation E + R = O? (Event + Response = Outcome)
It could easily be changed to C + R = L (Circumstances + Response = Life)
You are enough.
I am enough.
We are enough the way we are RIGHT NOW.
We just have to strategically play the cards we’ve been dealt, wouldn’t you agree?
Four Simple Words You Need To Win The Money Game
“Capital is any VALUE you set aside to be INVESTED in an ENTERPRISE that brings value to the MARKETPLACE hoping to make a profit.”
Let’s take a look at the four outstanding words, shall we? I’ll give you my own definitions that I believe will propel you to success and riches.
Value : The amount (of goods or services) that is 10 times or more valuable than what people pay for it.
Invested : What you give of yourself - dedication and commitment to follow-through the process until completion to come up with an outstanding good or service.
Enterprise : An undertaking or a project that benefits the community as well as yourself, especially a daring and courageous one.
Marketplace : The people whom you should be thinking about every breathing minute of your day, asking yourself, “How can I serve them better?”
One Quick Reminder
“It’s like seed corn that a farmer’s going to plant in the spring hoping for a multiplied harvest come harvest time”
They call this the Law of the Harvest.
I’ve been getting a few questions recently asking me, “SaiF, how long does this law of attraction take to work?”
I still remember what Bob Proctor said in his interview with Mike Litman : “The Law of the Harvest states that everthing has a gestation period. A seed has a gestation period of years to grow into a tree. A foetus takes nine months to become a baby.”
And here’s the kicker,”In our case, the gestation period is determined by us! The gestation period is how long you think it will take you to attract what you want.”
So at the end of the day, it boils down to the one thing that it always boils down to doesn’t it?
Your mind! I’ve written extensively on how self-made millionaires think here and also my take on Farrah Gray’s Reallionaire steps here which are must-reads if you want to make it BIG. So, please take some time out to read them =)
Just A Thought…
Today, I attracted so many ideas, people and events into my life! I know that I will attract the amount of money I asked from the Universe because I can feel it in every cell of my body. It’s an AMAZING feeling and somehow I just know that it will come.
As you may know, one of my main goals is to become a millionaire. For me, my gestation period is 3 years (for now) but I’m more interested in yours. How much time do YOU need to become a millionaire?
You are enough. You are NOT your circumstance.
Rise above it and show the world what you can do.

Hey Kyle!
Nice echo-ing here =)
I’m going to show the world what I can do for it.
I think you might have forgotten to add those 2 words ;)

That gestation period concept is very interesting.
If you think about it, becoming a millionaire is very easy if you have a “good” job. Just invest some money every year for a few decades. But where’s the fun in that?
But making a million dollars fairly quickly (just a few years)…now that’s exciting. But it can’t happen if you believe that making a million dollars is supposed to take forever!

Yes, I know…that’s why I felt compelled to put quotes around “good” job! Ha ha!

Everytime I read your mail I get a sense of value. They are so refreshing and I get enthusiastic about what I have around.
Today for the first time, I wrote to an engineer saying that I was a very good architect, and that if he needed good designs to give me a call.
And I don’t even know him. My self esteem is going up! Hooray, just what I have needed all my life.
Thank you again.

Hi SaiF, nice site! I saw you guys talking about J.O.B.’s and wanted to comment.
It’s true that the richest of people are going to be self-employed. Entrepreneurs. But people with J.O.B.’s are very important. If we all dropped what we were doing to become self-made millionaires, the world would stop. Farmers would stop making their food, construction workers would stop building houses, janitors would stop keeping the world clean, etc.
It has been said that if an angel came to Earth, it would not matter if she were a CEO or a maid. She would be happy regardless, because she understands life. She knows the game.
What is my point? My point is that it’s great to never desire to work a J.O.B. — but be sure to not look down upon those that do. I’ve met some entrepreneurs who do this. They are wrong to, and I think they have forgotten how important people with regular jobs are. I started my first successful business when I was 15. I’m not better than other teenagers because of this — just different.

Hey Jonathan! THANK YOU for your comment=)
I get where you’re coming from and I have a feeling we have offended you with our comments and I’m sorry about that.
First of all, I want to clarify that I do not look down on people who have jobs.
Secondly, I don’t think the world would stop if we all dropped everything to become self-made millionaires.
Let me explain.
I think you’re missing one very important factor here and that is passion.
Those who love building things like the construction workers will never trade it for a CEO’s job of managing paperwork and delegating tasks.
The farmers would rather spend their time farming simply because they like the way of life - and that is very relaxing to them.
And yes, even janitors would continue having their jobs because they love doing it.
You might not believe me on the last one, but it’s true! I’ve come across many people who love to keep the world clean.
There’s an abundance in the Universe and in an ideal world, the Janitors, Farmers and Construction Workers would all be self-employed and possible self-made millionaires.
Then, in an ideal world, we would all be doing what we love and trading our services for another’s without having the denomination of money.
In fact if I’m not mistaken, we all started like that and since there can be no definite measure of the value of services, money was invented.
Thirdly, I think you’re mistaking our enthusiasm to become self-made millionaires and thus saying that we will never have jobs as us looking down on people who have jobs.
Like you said, you started your first successful business pretty young and it just means that you’re different.
People who have jobs are just that, they’re different. They would rather have a certain structure around their lives that they can adhere to and find comfort in rather than living the uncertain life of a self-made millionaire who would work countless hours in the beginning with very little compensation.
And after some time only will the business thrive and maybe it wouldn’t. It takes alot effort and time and I think not everybody would want to go through that.
Come to think of it now, pursuing the path of an entrepreneur with the vision of becoming a self-made millionaire is a much more scary path than that of having a job.
We are just crazy to go on that path and we’re not better, just different.
What do you think Jonathan?
Sincerely,
SaiF

Hey SaiF,
No worries. You didn’t offend me at all. I apologize if I made it seem like you did. I didn’t feel that you or Hunter were looking down on anyone. I could tell and I assumed you were not those type of people. That’s why I said “they” instead of “you” when I wrote: “…some entrepreneurs who do this. They are wrong to…”
It was just that the whole topic reminded me of people who are like that. For example, my mother, who after many failed businesses decided to start STEALING from people instead. Long story. And she used to always make fun of people who had jobs (even though her husband supported her with one). She misinterpreted what people like Tony Robbins were talking about in their books. I’m glad her attitude in life is not genetic!
I agree with what you’ve said in your latest comment. Although, it is quite a dream to get rid of money. It is a nice ideal but the actual chances of it becoming a reality are slim. I’m not saying to give up on the idea, but rather that it is a long way ahead of us. :D
And if we were all millionaires, then a million dollars would not be worth much. We’d have to be billionaires. Heheh. Of course you already know that, but I’m just joking around now.
