How to develop rich Mindset: 7 Habits of financially free and wealthy people


1.       Believe in creating their own life and luck

Rich people create their own life, they believe that meticulous planning and hard work results in success. They learn the rules of the game and then play it well, not leaving anything to mere chance or luck. Rich don’t have lottery mindset and take massive actions to achieve success. They stay away from lotteries, get rich quick schemes and free lunches.



2.       Work hard and smart

They work super hard and consistently improve their skills, performance, and results. They think long-term and invest in personal development. They are much disciplined and their habits are consistent with their goals. Their work ethics and character are far better than average people because they are in business for a long-haul and know the value of brand name.



3.       Continuously think and plan about their businesses and investments

Wealthy people consistently think about new opportunities and growth. They think a lot more than average people about their wealth. Rich even think about their business when they are not working. They review and update their plan and portfolio frequently and keep a tab on events that may affect their business and wealth.


4.       Learn and grow, instead of watching soap operas

Wealthy use their time wisely, and use it in productive pursuits. Research has shown time and again, that daily TV watch time of the majority of rich people is less than one hour. They use this time to learn new skills, read business books, or doing other productive works. So cut your cable and avoid watching TV while you eat. And you can save thousands of hours every year.


5.       Look for real value

Wealthy and rich judge things on their value, not on advertising, marketing or others expectations. They find out numbers and facts about things, businesses, and investments. For example, most of them do value investing rather than speculative, short-term or emotional investing. They make big decisions based on the value and cost of the options available. For example; instead of buying an expensive luxury car, they buy fuel efficient, low maintenance and low cost used the car (preferably 1 to 2 years old).



6.       Dreams a lot and set big goals

“Hold fast to dreams, for if dreams die, life is a broken-winged bird that cannot fly.”
Langston Hughes

Rich people have concrete goals and pursue them relentlessly. They write down their dreams and goals in a diary or a notebook, and never lose sight of it. Rich people dream a lot about their goals. So, brainstorm your financial goals and write them down in a journal.



7.       Committed to being wealthy

Rich people do not hope, they are committed to their goals and take massive actions. If you really want something, you do not hope for that thing to happen, you make it happen. They do whatever it takes to achieve their goals. So, commit to the goals that you have written in your journal and write down an expected time of completion next to each goal.
