BOOK SUMMARY
Secrets of the Millionaire Mind by T. Harv Eker explores the psychological and emotional patterns that shape our relationship with money. Eker argues that wealth isn’t just about financial strategies — it’s about mindset. He introduces the concept of a “money blueprint” — the set of subconscious beliefs and habits we inherit from our upbringing that determine how we think, feel, and act around money.
The book is divided into two parts. The first explains how to identify and reprogram limiting beliefs that keep people stuck in scarcity. The second presents 17 Wealth Files — practical ways that rich and poor people think differently. For example, wealthy people focus on opportunities, take responsibility for their results, and play to win; while poor people focus on obstacles, blame others, and play not to lose.
Eker combines motivational psychology with actionable steps, showing readers how to adopt a mindset of abundance, discipline, and confidence. The message is clear: to change your financial life, you must first change your thinking.
