For a lot of people, the subject of money is an uncomfortable one. People tend to think wanting it is unsavory, having it makes you evil and making it means taking advantage of others.

Nothing could be further from the truth. If you really want to get woo-woo about the topic of money, working hard and fairly and having a positive mindset about finances can make you wealthy and that attracts even more wealth. With wealth, you gain freedom. And, with this freedom, there’s no limit to how many people you can help or causes you can support.

But…where to start?

Twitter user Naval created a thread with wisdom about how to unblock yourself when it comes to money. Scroll through them and start to see your own potential for gaining wealth, freedom and happiness.

Part One

Understand that ethical wealth creation is possible. If you secretly despise wealth, it will elude you.

Part Two

You’re not going to get rich renting out your time. You must own equity – a piece of a business – to gain your financial freedom.

Part Three

Pick an industry where you can play long term games with long term people.

Part Four

Play iterated games. All the returns in life, whether in wealth, relationships, or knowledge, come from compound interest.

Part Five

Don't partner with cynics and pessimists. Their beliefs are self-fulfilling.

— Naval (@naval) May 31, 2018

Part Six

Arm yourself with specific knowledge, accountability, and leverage.

Part Seven

Specific knowledge is found by pursuing your genuine curiosity and passion rather than whatever is hot right now.

— Naval (@naval) May 31, 2018

Part Eight

When specific knowledge is taught, it’s through apprenticeships, not schools.

— Naval (@naval) May 31, 2018

Part Nine

Embrace accountability, and take business risks under your own name. Society will reward you with responsibility, equity, and leverage.

Part Ten

“Give me a lever long enough, and a place to stand, and I will move the earth.”
– Archimedes

Part Eleven

Capital means money. To raise money, apply your specific knowledge, with accountability, and show resulting good judgment.

— Naval (@naval) May 31, 2018

Part Twelve

Capital and labor are permissioned leverage. Everyone is chasing capital, but someone has to give it to you. Everyone is trying to lead, but someone has to follow you.

— Naval (@naval) May 31, 2018

Part Thirteen

An army of robots is freely available – it's just packed in data centers for heat and space efficiency. Use it.

— Naval (@naval) May 31, 2018

Part Fourteen

Leverage is a force multiplier for your judgement.

— Naval (@naval) May 31, 2018

Part Fifteen

There is no skill called “business.” Avoid business magazines and business classes.

— Naval (@naval) May 31, 2018

To start thinking about wealth in these ways is revolutionary. Can we boil it down to this? Think of something that really interests you and that you can do—a passion you’ll never tire of. Build on it. Teach yourself how to sell it. Automate systems. Amass your wealth AND your freedom.

But, first, you have to allow yourself to want it!
