The elephant can lift a ton with his trunk. This magnificent animal is one of the most powerful creatures on earth. But if you visit a circus you will see the elephant standing quietly, passively held by only a thin rope or chain attached to a little post dug into the ground. He could easily break free (if only he knew). Why doesn’t he? Because while the elephant was very young and considerably smaller and weaker, he was tied to a super heavy chain attached to a massive, immovable stake in the ground. He strained and strained, but try as he might, he could not break free! Soon he stopped trying and accepted his limitations and so no matter how big and powerful he has grown, he is convinced that he cannot move as long as he can see that he is tied to a stake in the ground. So many entrepreneurs and people in general, are ‘circus elephants’; immensely powerful but stuck within limitations manufactured only by their own beliefs and biases, and those of other people. In order to become wealthy quickly, you must have a particular mindset that will set you apart from all the ‘me too’ businesses out there. The mindset you must adopt is that getting rich quickly is feasible for you. Simply put, we all know people who make money easily and for that matter have great relationships as well. And do you know what popular opinion says about such people? That they’re ‘lucky’, because every thing they touch turns to gold. Wrong! What it really is, with these ‘lucky’ people, is their mind-set, they expect things to work out the way they have planned. But you need more than just a ‘rich’ mind set. That’s why there are 9 Laws, not one. As we all know, there are people who don’t believe that getting rich quickly is possible. Still others who say, “Yeah, but it only happens to someone else”. And if you listen to the average accountant, or read any standard book on business, they will tell you that it will take at least two years to break even and more to make a profit
