In the next few posts I’m going to touch a little on the 4 areas (Mindset – Methods – Make Money - Life) of Successfool’s.
The first and to me most important of the 4 is “They have the right Mindset.”
Here’s a powerful quote about your mind:
“Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.”
Isn’t it amazing how the things that we think about most, actually happen and become our destinies? I believe that if people realized this, they might start “thinking” twice about what they’re feeding their mind.
There’s only a certain amount of “space” we have in our mind, and if all we’re doing with that space is allowing it to be consumed by things that are not going to get us that much close to our goals and what we really want out of life, then we must evaluate our daily activities and make some major adjustments adjustments.
Having the right mindset is extremely important to becoming a Successfool. I’ve made sure to line up some of the top entrepreneurs in the world for interviews on the area of Mindset and how it pertains to becoming a successful entrepreneur.
Here’s a few things you can do right now to start working out that brain of yours:
1. Hang around the right people
- there’s nothing worse than being surrounded by negativity and the wrong environment
2. Go pick up “Think & Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill
- this will totally help you on having the right mindset
3. Evaluate frequently
- I triple dare you to take a notepad & a pen. Every hour on the hour, write down exactly what you’re thinking at that moment. Be honest and you will be surprised with what you’re thinking about.
I’m going to be talking about the Methods of a Successfool next.

Great looking blog and great content too. Mindset is essential to success. This is what Think and Grow Rich is all about. Thoughts become things.You mentioned Think and Grow Rich – I invite you to add your favorite personal development book at http://personaldevelopmenthomebusiness.com/2008/03/16/the-personal-development-book-list/
Thanks, Tom
This is one of the most important components of successful people. Having the proper mindset is absolutely critical. When I fail 90% of the time it’s because I didn’t have the proper mindset.
I was a wrestler in middle and high school. I also have been a big golfer. These sports, as well as sports in general, are perfect examples of how the mind can determine your success. It’s really won and lost in the mind. Why Tiger Woods is who he is has mostly to do with his mental game.
I love the verse Phil. 4:8 – “Finally, brothers, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.”
Looking forward to this portion of the site… You can have all the skills you want, but without the proper mindset you’ll fail!

keep up the good work; the vlog posts are a good touch; video always works well.

Alejandro!
These words are next to my laptop, over at my desk…and running through my mind…
“Watch your thoughts, for they become words.
Watch your words, for they become actions.
Watch your actions, for they become habits.
Watch your habits, for they become character.
Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny.”
Two of my other faves for me personally are:
3 John 2 – “I pray that in all things thou may prosper and be in health, even as they soul prospereth.”
Ephesians 3:20 – “Now unto him that is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,”
Also, my friend and business partner, Brett Rademacher, recently released this incredible mindset training called because it’s so important for people to understand how important their thinking is and how it dramatically impacts their lives and their finances.
I look forward to all of your future posts. Stay foolish brother.
