Are You a Comeback Artist?

]In the last 24-months some of the smartest people on the planet have taken massive financial losses. Even multinational corporations have been shocked and stunned by the depth of this international recession. The good news is things are getting better every day. All of us are smarter and tougher than we were two years ago, and we’re going to leverage what we learned to be bigger and better than ever. My critical thinking question for you in this video post is: are you a comeback artist, or are you buying into the middle-class idea that the world will never be the

Are You Willing To Fight?

I was giving a speech a few days ago in New York, and someone in the audience asked me what mental toughness was really about. I responded with, “It’s about getting what you want.”  And that’s what makes it so valuable. Maybe you want to be the best mom or dad in the world. Maybe you want to have lots of friends. Maybe you want to be a millionaire. We all want something, and mental toughness is the fastest way to get it, because it separates you from the pack. Most people never even decide what they want, so they half-heartedly

The Secret Strategy of the Super-Rich

After 26 years of interviewing the wealthy, one strategy they taught me outranks all the others. It’s the strategy that catapulted me from no money to millionaire. The first million didn’t happen overnight, but the second, third and subsequent millions came quickly. Once I learned how to think like the rich, this secret strategy was the mechanical process that generated the money. Like most strategies of the world class, it’s not really a secret, but I call it that because so few people use it. I don’t know if it’s laziness or lack of awareness, but whatever the reason, this is

Are You Still Dreaming?

As I travel across the country on my latest book tour, all I seem to hear from people (including the TV anchors interviewing me) how bad things are and how they’re never going to be the same. This is the mindset of the masses, and it’s a dangerous trap. The wealthy and successful people I’m talking to are regrouping to compete and thrive in the new economy…and they’re EXCITED about the NEW opportunities this correction has to offer all of us. Watch this short video post and ask yourself this critical thinking question: Are you still dreaming and planning for the

5 Steps to Getting Rich

Since my new book, How Rich People Think, was released a few weeks ago, I’ve been bombarded by the press with the same burning question: what are the steps to getting rich? I love this question because very few books or speakers actually address it. The idea of thinking your way into a fortune falls short, because without action it will never happen. Movies like ‘The Secret’ made people more aware of their potential, but didn’t tell the rest of the story. In this recent interview on NBC, I explain the 5 steps the rich have taught me to follow over

Steve Siebold on FOX News

The media has really taken to my new book, How Rich People Think. In the last 5 days I’ve been interviewed on FOX, CBS, NBC, and ABC. I’ll be crisscrossing the country for the next 6-months doing TV interviews, then heading over to the UK and Australia for more. Notice the kinds of questions the interviewers ask, and it will give you an idea how most people think about money. The recession has created even more fear, which will lead people to make short-term decisions with their money that will generate small returns. Now is the time to THINK BIG and

Why Your First Million is the Toughest

The first million is the hardest to make, but not for the reason most people think. Most people say it’s because it takes money to make money, and once you have a million, you can use it to make the next million. While this is technically true, it’s not the reason most millionaires cite. After interviewing millionaires for 26 years, most say the first million is the hardest because you have to believe you can do it before you have any proof or experience. Not to mention the fact that many people in your inner circle will laugh and ridicule you
