Things I learned from It’s More Than Just Money

80% Mindset & 20% Strategy

If you want to achieve your goals, you have to change your average mindset to a millionaire mindset!

A strategy that works for me is setting my intentions for the week every Sunday. Setting your intention for the week is critical to accomplishing your goals. Think it through, write it down and display it somewhere that you will be reminded of it daily

Witness shares how your attitude ultimately determines the strategies you apply to successfully execute your skills.

Importance of Relationships

You know how they say your network is everything. Why do people work hard to send their children to prestigious schools? Why do people join country clubs and play golf? It’s all about networking, connecting and maintaining relationships.

Relationship building is important. It can help you get new customers, retain current customers and manage your reputation. 

In this book, Witness shares how he noticed that as “black peoples” we compete with each other and have a relationship deficiency and not lack of capital. He emphasises the importance of thinking of relationships as resources and moving with a long-term vision. 

The Cost of Financial Success

This book is great for you if you want to understand the basic fundamentals of changing your mindset and building generational wealth from zero. You will learn how to take control of your mindest and how that affects your life and money.
