Single Most Important Question

By Steve Siebold

This blog has 15,945  subscribers, among whom are some the smartest, most successful, goal-oriented people I’ve ever encountered. You can read it in the quality of their comments. Our community is group of people who know how to get what they want, which is what mental toughness is all about. In this short video post I pose what believe is the single most important question a lot of successful people fail to ask themselves and their families. It’s a question so far out of the average person’s belief system that it never crosses their mind. It never crossed my mind before

The Secret of World-Class Success and Security

By Steve Siebold

Have you ever wondered how ordinary people break into the circles of the wealthy and successful? How do you gain the trust of someone who earns 10, 20 or 100 times as much as you? I get this question in almost every interview I do, and it’s a subject I’ve spent a lot of time studying, and even more time practicing. I started this process in 1984, and it’s still something I employ every day. Not only will it help to catapult your career, but it will give you a level of security for you and your family that most people

Are You a Comeback Artist?

By Steve Siebold

]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

End of Optimism in America?

By Steve Siebold

Mort Zuckerman, the editor of U.S. News and World Report, wrote an article recently in the Wall Street Journal, entitled, The End Of Optimism in America. I received several calls from the press asking for a comment on the article, and have given my response on numerous radio and TV shows. I like Mort Zuckerman. He’s a smart guy. This time he’s wrong. I’m proud to be an American, but I’ll refrain from beating my chest too much on this one because I think the question extends far beyond our shores. There are so many great countries in the world struggling in

Are You Willing To Fight?

By Steve Siebold

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

By Steve Siebold

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

5 Steps to Getting Rich

By Steve Siebold

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

World’s Highest Paid Skill

By Steve Siebold

One of the questions I’m being bombarded with on my 50-city, How Rich People Think, TV interview tour is; how can I rebuild my 401K so I can eventually retire? This global recession has cost most of us a lot of money, and some of us our jobs. People under 50 have time to recover, but what about the baby boomers who have lost so much of their wealth and can’t land a job? This is the front page story in USA Today newspaper today, and if you’re over 50, it’s an article worth reading. I’m writing this post in the

Building a World-Class Network

By Steve Siebold

The most successful people have the largest networks of powerful people who can help them. While the average person is randomly passing out business cards and enduring endless networking mixers, the smartest business people target the rich and powerful in an attempt infiltrate their inner circle. This is not to be confused with social climbing or using people. It’s done with the sole purpose of a developing a long-term, symbiotic relationship with people who have substantial contacts, credibility, and influence in the marketplace. Neither life nor business is a level playing field, and the most strategic people end up winning most

Steve Siebold on FOX News

By Steve Siebold

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
