ABOUT THE AUTHOR

INTRODUCTION

I didn't grow up as a rich kid but I grew up as a highly curious kid who questioned everything and always sought answers and new ways of doing things my own way. I would say I was a very intelligent kid indeed because I was once the second-best student in my entire school during my junior high school years. I had mental and physical qualities that most of my age mates at that time could only dream of. I was still a teenager and my curiosity had already led me to embarking on some deep-rooted exploration and research about the essence of human existence and why we are all being forced to follow the same traditional way of living life. In the course of my personal quest to find answers to some pertinent questions that my teachers refused to answer because the government didn't include that in the formal curriculum, I fell out of love with schooling and started growing a deep connection with education.

I grew up believing the traditional propaganda that Education and Schooling are the same but it wasn't until my curiosity led me to my own research adventure that I found that Education and Schooling are actually two different things. At this stage, I had started banishing the traditional gameplan of life that encourages kids to go to school, get good grades, get a safe secure job and live the good life after retirement. I had already taken the narrow path on my way to discover the real world. I was on a mission to accumulate enough knowledge outside the traditional world that would make me mentally immune to society's mass propaganda machine. At this stage I had already gathered enough evidence to back my decision to rebel against the traditional system and its mass psychosis machine.

In this book, I bring you an open-play exposure of some deep fundamental truths that the people at the top of society's pyramid don't want you to ever get your hands on. You have been going along with the conventional wisdom for most of your life which has played directly into the hands of the builders and designers of this severely rigged system we live in. It's time to revoke your attention to their game plan and find your own truth. Whatever the government and the corporate elite cartel are doing to you right now was programmed into the traditional system several decades before you were even born. The bad news is that you have no control over what they do and how they run the entire game of dominance against the crowd. The good news is that you can actually recalibrate your mental programming to certain universal frequencies that would free you from their prison in order for you to achieve personal fulfillment. In this way, you can learn how to play the game their way and profit like they do. The truth is you are never going to escape their prison easily without a fight and the willingness to resist and break free.

Former World Kickboxing Champion Andrew Tate is currently facing incarceration and a coordinated attack from powerful Governments and Global Elites all because he tried to encourage and lead people out of this traditionally accepted darkness and usher young people into the light of personal fulfillment. You are deliberately being deprived from building a sovereign mindset and identity because once you do, you are no longer within their control. That should tell you the extent to which the government and its corporate elite cartel would go just to make sure you never find out about their rigged game and how to escape this system. The greatest weapon of rebellion against their rigged monopoly is not machine guns and bombs but enough knowledge and information that would establish you beyond their control.

This book reveals to you how to think about money differently that would help you put a plan in place to build generational wealth. After reading this book, you'll drop all the conventional wisdom propaganda you have consumed about money and life that has hindered your prosperity and personal sovereignty all your life. We all deserved to live in a world where financial freedom isn't just an illusion but a real possibility. Getting rich is a state of mind, achieving personal sovereignty is a state of mind; happiness really is a state of mind. This means that all the important things you need to achieve personal fulfillment starts from your mind and this book highlights how you can build those behavioural patterns that would give you the Midas touch. I am a living testimony to everything I have talked about in this book from how practicing the ideas contained in this book propelled me to making my first $100,000, building my first mansion and retiring my mother and building her dream house and business for her all in the space of few years. I hope you dedicate time to read this book, put all the ideas here into practice couple with a positive mental attitude and see if your life won’t improve drastically. Good luck to you and I hope to see you soon in best shape, financially independent and living an extremely happy life.

CHAPTER 1

DEVELOP A WINNING MENTALITY AND CULTIVATE A BURNING DESIRE TO WIN

A lot of people talk about winning but how many of these people actually have the mental preparedness to ignite that winning spark? Napoleon Hill, author of the best-seller classic Think and Grow Rich, gave a perfect story about the concept of igniting your burning desire to win. It reads, "A long time ago, a commander assembled his troops for battle against a powerful force. They travelled the journey with a boat crossing the next river.

When they crossed the river to the other side, the commander ordered his soldiers to set the boat on fire after they have unloaded their items. The Commander then assembled his men and said to them, you see that boat going up in flames? That means, we cannot leave this battlefield until we win. This means that it’s either we win or we perish so we have no choice than to win this battle.

They went ahead and won the battle. This is one of the greatest illustrations I have ever seen as regards giving accurate evidence of why winning is purely a mental game. The Commander in this story made sure his soldiers had no avenue for retreat and no feeling of comfort that might have given them any psychological hope of surrender. A lot of people are unable to achieve their ultimate dreams in life because they underestimate or cannot even figure out the true power their minds possess in that regard.

People often end up resorting to external avenues to seek solutions to life’s problems without first taking care of their inner personalities. You cannot change the outer world without first changing the inner world.  If you want to change the fruit of a tree you must first change its roots. Before there can be any prospects of changing your visible environment, you must first work on changing the invisible environment as this constitutes the roots of the entire human existence. The basic element of our thinking is the reason why so many people are living without any knowledge of the real purpose of their existence. Most of these thoughts of self-doubt and hopelessness emanate to some extent from the programming these people received from their parents, society, the school system and religion. We all grew up with different psychological modelling and with different views and perspectives from our surroundings.  The stage of infancy is the most critical stage of every human life because that is where we receive our initial source of programming and it is the foundation of every human existence. We learn the rules of the game of life at this stage, the foundation of our thought patterns, attitudes, emotions and associations are developed at this stage.

From the day you were born till you reach the age of adolescence, your human brain is not mature enough for you to do your own thinking to verify some of society’s concepts so we tend to follow everything blindly whether good or bad. This stage is where most people develop faulty thinking that drags their life and prevents them from going after their true purpose in life. For example, most of us were taught as kids to go to school, get good grades, get good paying jobs and save money so we can have enough to retire at the age of 65. A whole generation of kids were given this life manual. None of us had the thinking capability to challenge the fact that this was a real bad plan. The whole idea behind this manual was to suppress our sovereignty and groom an army of obedient and loyal citizens who would keep feeding the system forever.

The sad reality is, in the end very few people tend to escape this trap and actually go after the life that fully befits their true potential. I remember when I was in primary school; teachers had this habit of asking students what they wanted to become in the future.  Most of us told our teachers we wanted to become Pilots, Lawyers, Doctors, Politicians and other lavish careers but I can tell you that over 90% of us grew up being nowhere near any of the professions we had in mind as kids. The whole system has been designed to look like it is there to give people comfort and the life of their dreams whereas in reality, it is actually all about the survival of the fittest. Unfortunately, most people are yet to figure this out. So, they give up their childhood programming and pick up new beliefs for their new life.

The stage of Emotion and Experience is typically reached during the age range of 20 to 50 years. This is the stage where we come to a personal realization and we actually begin to explore and find out things for ourselves. This is the stage where you experience the true living process of life and indeed get to realize that you are on your own and nobody is coming to save you. It is the hardest and the most intense stage of life’s process because this is basically the period where you get to take full responsibility for your life and your dreams and own up to it whether it turns to be a success or failure.

When children spend their entire teenage years absorbing these values of indoctrination from schools and religious institutions, their stage of Emotion and Experience then becomes an uphill battle of having to either break those mental chains and pick up a new belief system or go ahead with it and serve Society’s purpose instead of their own. You have been groomed since childhood to follow society’s blueprint and abandon going after your real purpose in life. These are the sort of mental chains that helped shape the current perspective you are holding now and it is the same thought patterns preventing you from going after your dreams because you assume you are not worthy enough. Most of the wealthiest people in the world were school dropouts and people who defied all odds to achieve wealth.

This is because they first discovered their real purpose and pursued it. They did not wait for the government to create jobs before they could get employed. They did not wait for some miracle prophecy from their religious leaders before they went after their dreams. They did not wait for Politicians to come and promise them a better life after election before they could take charge of their lives. Rather, they are people who dared to dream and went against systematic protocols because they realized their purpose is much bigger than anyone and that it will take only themselves to achieve that dream. Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg and former Microsoft CEO Bill Gates both dropped out of Harvard University and later ended up founding multi-billion dollar Companies.

Success and prosperity is more about believing in yourself and aiming for something rather than allowing someone else to dictate the pace of your life. If you want something hard enough you would have to go for it. It definitely will not be an easy ride but if you can ignite your natural mental drive and burning desire, then you have got a massive chance at it. Over 77% of the World’s Billionaires are self-made and didn’t inherit anything from their families. We have heard so many stories of successful people who struggled in their early life to even make ends meet but later ended up achieving immense wealth. This is what possessing a winning mentality can do for you. It ignites your burning desire and a quest to do exploits. It is so unfortunate that we are on a continent where you have to leave behind all your childhood programming and surrender your will to Society and the system. But I want to dare you to take the risk and pursue what you are destined to become.

Do not be intimidated by limitations. As kids, we were brainwashed to believe that you cannot be successful without going to school but today we literally see the direct opposite of that; there
