Yet another self-help book that sucks immensely. This one is extra frustrating, too, because apart from the usual clichés it feels like encouraging a cultist mindset. So many pseudo-scientific stuff are mentioned as real science and of course so much advertising of the author's seminars. But in the end, there's not even actual practical advice.

Quick and easy to read. Went through it since Dave Ramsey recommended it. Definitely interesting and will be implementing the things he says that I wasn't already doing.

You want to get paid for your results, not your actions.
Rich people think a certains way, and poor people think a completely different way, and those ways of thinking determine their actions and therefore determine their results.
It's not what we know that prevents us from succeeding; it's what we know that ain't so that is our greatest obstacle.
Do you truly feel that you deserve wealth?
When self-made millionaire lose their money, they usually have it back within a relatively short time.
The motivation you have for making money is vital.
Your income can only grow to the extent that you do.
Thoughts lead to feelings, feelings lead to actions, and actions lead to results. Don't let negative thoughts live in your head "rent free".
When you're in debt, don't buy more!
Rich people believe, "I create my life". Poor people believe, "Life happens to me." You have to believe that you are the only one who creates your success, that you are the one who creates your mediocrity, and that you are the one creating your struggle around money and success.
I challenge you not to complain at all. Not just not out loud, but in your head as well.
Don't have a victim mentality. There's no such thing as a rich victim. You can be a victim or you can be rich, but you can't be both at the same time.
Rich People play the money-game to win. Poor people play it not to lose.
The number one reason most people don't get want they want is that they don't know what they want.
Rich people focus on opportunities. Poor people focus on obstacles.
Rich people associate with positive, successful people. Poor people associate with negative unsuccessful people. Most people earn within 20 percent of the average income of their closest friends. Instead of mocking rich people, model them.
Rich people are willing to promote themselves and their value. Poor people think negatively about selling and promotion. You have to be adept at selling, inspiring, and motivation people to buy into your vision.
Selling is one of the world's highest-paid professions.
Rich people have their money work hard for them. Poor people work hard for their money. Without passive income you can never be free.

If you hated "Think and Grow Rich" or "Rich Dad, Poor Dad" as did I, you'll probably hate this one too. Like the title implies, it's a self-help book attempting to teach you how to create a millionaire mind through positive thinking with which to attract wealth to your life. It smacks of "The Secret," another book I detested. The book has such an "us" and "them" attitude that I couldn't really get into it. It's probably filled with wonderful stuff as many other reviewers believe, but it's not the book for me.
