Read previous articles of this series

In order to achieve something, besides a plan, you must also set your mindset and thinking in the correct way which will support your plan and help you to take action.

What is Mindset?

In general, Mindset is a set of system and standard that we use to model our thinking. How we think will determine what we believe. What we believe will determine how we take action and action will determine what kind of results we will get.

So if you are having a wrong mindset, then your thinking and believe system will go the other way. In this condition, you will never achieve what you want.

For example, I believe I can achieve financial freedom before age of 30. This is because I think that I deserve to have a better life, better choice and have the ability to own abundance of wealth. Because of this my mindset is totally different from my friends. All my friends went to University, graduated and get a steady job with steady income. However, I rejected the offer from University, start my business, and try to build a business system that going to generate massive of income for me. Now can you see it? Because my mindset is different, my actions and decisions are different too and guess what, my life and future will definitely different too.

Mindset and Your Plans

In last 3 parts, I hope you already make a plan for you to achieve financial freedom. Don’t worry if your plan is simple and not in details enough. You can always change your plan in future and add more details in it. Now what important is taking action! With action, you can gain experience and you can add more information into your plan accordingly at that time.

So what make you take action according your plan? It is your believe and your mindset.

Before this I make a lot of plans and I can tell you that I fail with all of them. The main reason I found is I never take action according to my plan and eventually I feel stress with it and have to throw it away in order to get back the peace for my mind. I think this is a big problem that I must solve in order to move on.

After that I read an article about mindset and believe system. I also read Anthony Robbin’s The Giant Within. Then only I know my main problem is I never believe my plans and my mindset keep fighting with it. This is why I feel stress, unmotivated and never take appropriate actions.

So from that time, I set a plan that I will believe. For example, in my new plan, making $3000 monthly from my business is reasonable. But in my old plans, I start with 1 million dollars which is not accepted by my mindset because I never believe I can make this! I must gain more knowledge and experience in order to expand my mindset to accept that I can make 1 million dollars from my business.

How to Make your Mindset Compromise with your plan

Ok, here are some tips that I can give you base on my experience in planning:

  1. Set an achievable Goal. A goal that you believe you can achieve.

  2. List out the actions that you can take to achieve the goal. This will make you feel easy with your goals.

  3. Prepare and gain more information & Knowledge for your plan. This will help you increase you confidence level on your plans.

  4. Find someone and announce your plan. The more you tell, the more confidence you get and eventually you will some kind of power inside you.

  5. Make a Contract of your goal, print it out and sign it. This is an agreement. If possible please stick this contract to a place that can easily catch your attention. I stick this on my working table.

Hi Harrison,

It is very important for anyone who has a financial plan or goal to write it down. Sometimes, creating a simple list like your second step helps. But drawing the full plan like the contract in step four, takes more effort and the more effort you put into a project, the more you commit to it. Good thoughts. Keep it up.

Yeah, the more I commit, the hardest I can give up and I make myself no choice but have to move on. ;)
