In this article, we will learn 5 tips to have an abundant mind according to the philosophy of Alex Kei.

What do we mean by a “poor mind”?
By referring to a “poor mind” it is meant to indicate to a person that their thoughts are focused on loss, scarcity, and stagnation, being a fixed mentality, and not necessarily a poor-minded person is also pocket-sized since he may be poor-minded but pocket-rich or vice versa.
You have to play to win
A poor mind focuses and worries more about not losing than winning, so its game is based on this logic and all the actions it takes are mentalized so as not to lose something it already has, be it time, money or reputation, instead of concentrating on what it wants to win, which is what should be prioritized and the loss accepted as part of the process.
Defeat is temporary
You cannot always play to win and it is necessary to bear in mind that defeat is temporary. When you really want something, you focus on the goal you want to achieve and you have to take action without fear being a limitation; It is not only necessary to focus on what can be lost along the way but to visualize the objective that is behind the “abyss” that our own mind is creating.
Do not wait for someone else to solve problems
Another characteristic of “poor-minded” people is that they expect others to solve their problems when we all have problems that accompany us daily, and here is a great difference between this type of person: an abundant mind never expects another to solve its own problems because it takes proactive action to resolve that conflictive situation.
Work on a good result
As we well know, it is the responsibility of each person to decide if they want to live, grow old and die poor or rich, since we all have the same opportunity to have a lifetime to create wealth or at least financial stability, with an abundant mind we can achieve these kinds of good results. On the contrary, if we maintain a “poor mind” with the wrong mentality, the only thing we will achieve are wrong results throughout our lives even when we work hard, since if our mind is based on a “poor mind”, our decisions will always be wrong, which leads to executing wrong actions, and therefore we will always obtain the same wrong results.
Change our type of mind
As we mentioned in the previous point, we are solely responsible for deciding how we want to live and grow old, therefore we must be aware that no time is late to change our way of thinking, to change from a “poor mind” to an abundant mind there is no age, any time of our life is the right time to change our type of mind; we must know that it is never too late in our life to start creating financial stability.
