Fear clouds their decision making and keeps people back from doing great things. Fear makes them treat others poorly and look at everyone as a potential enemy who can take what they have. That kind of mindset is a prison.

Other people see the world as one of abundance. They don’t think there’s not enough to go around. In fact, they think that there’s enough for everyone to prosper. And when there’s not, they find ways to create enough. These are the people who start businesses, make winning investments, and live life to the fullest. They are often the nicest and most generous people you’ll ever meet. They are living a truly free life.

When you realize that the world is one of abundance, you stop operating out of fear and instead you start asking, “How can I tap into that abundance?” Once you start asking that, you start seeing the world and how you interact with it in an entirely different way. Then you’re ready for financial freedom. Why? Because the fear of losing money doesn’t control you. You’re free to learn and grow. You’re free to obtain your wealth, not just financially, but also physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
