Filthy Rich and Stinking Rich
Why do people use the terms "Filthy Rich" or "Stinking Rich"? That creates a negative connotation in people's minds. When someone says those words to you, what do you immediately think of? Is it a wonderful and warm feeling associated with being rich?
Do you feel glad that you're middle-class and those terms don't apply to you? That's not what you want. You'll never become rich if you keeping thinking like that.
Society, other people, and such phrases have conditioned us to think and believe that being rich is a bad thing. We need to reverse those conditionings to project a positive image of being rich. Instead of saying filthy rich or stinking rich, how about use terms like the generous rich ones, charitable rich, smart and rich, or subsitute it with other nicer phrases.
You need to respect, admire, and try to learn something from those that are wealthier than you are. Don't talk about them negatively because that affects how your mind thinks and associates with being rich. If your subconscious mind think being rich is bad, it will do all that is possible to avoid being rich. That's why sometimes people sabotage their own success.
If you are not yet rich and refer to the wealthy like that, how do you think people will refer to you when you're a millionaire? What goes around, really comes back around, so remember to say good things to rich people who are at that stage in life that you want to be at.
Don't envy them because they have nice houses, pools, cars, money, and a great family. Join them, and become like them. Absorb knowledge and ideas, and ask them for advice to increase your productivity or profits. Self-made millionaires are generous with advice and suggestions that can help you.
Despite what some people think, not all millionaires step on people's toes and do bad things to get money. Stop thinking like that. You need to think of all the good that these rich and wealthy people do. Think about their volunteer work and the huge amounts of money they donate to charities, and then you won't think of them as "FILTHY rich" anymore.
