Like so many other things in life, the secret to making money and becoming wealthy – whether modestly so or fabulously so – is all in the mindset. There’s a chasm between the online millionaires and the average person when it comes to mentality; if you want to join them, you need to cultivate that mindset.
One of the biggest shifts in thinking is the amount of money. Far too many people start working online in the hope of finding some peanuts, and working to get those peanuts. The thing about peanuts is that while there’s an awful lot of them, they’re not going to get you anywhere fast.
Instead, you need to be thinking about the bigger picture: what you want, and how you’re going to get there, and what you’re going to do to get it. Typically, this means jobs or gigs or systems that pay out good money.
That also means asking what you think you’re worth, or what your product is worth. People will purchase, and having a high price point is often an indicator of quality – after all, people believe that experts an people who are truly good and trained at what they do are worth it – that’s why they are hiring a professional.
The mindset is all about treating your online business – which is what it is – as a real business rather than just this cool little bit of (sometimes stressful) income. By treating yourself like a high roller, your mindset is driving you to work and achieve as one. It’s only natural that results will follow.
In short, be who you want to be until you are who you want to be!
