Here are five effective wealth secrets that won’t cost you a dime to start doing. But they can dramatically improve your life!

1. Visualize what you want–every day. Visualizing your desired outcome is the base of achievement systems from Think and Grow Rich to the Law of Attraction (and actually runs as far back as human history).
You can find several different methods for this from several different self-help systems. The most important thing to remember is that you should focus on your desired end, with emotion, every single day.
Most people find that the beginning of the day is the best time to do this. Others prefer to do it at night, before bed. I recommend both.
That way, you subconscious can work on new ideas and solutions when you are asleep, and your consciousness will be focused on your goal on some level throughout the day.

2. Never stop learning. You don’t know it all now, and you never will. But that doesn’t mean you should quit learning with the end of college or high school. In fact it suggests that you should continually educate yourself.
This is especially true if you’re just starting out on the path to greater wealth. You’ve probably heard the phrase, “If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always gotten.” Cliché that it may be by now, it’s also true.

3. If you want to win, you have to lose a lot. Thomas Edison knew this. He tried roughly 1,000 different light bulb designs before getting one that worked like he wanted. (Light bulbs were already around; he was trying to design one that could be put to common use.)
When asked how he kept his chin up through a thousand failures, he answered, “I have not failed 1,000 times. I discovered 1,000 ways not to build a light bulb. Then I was able to deduce a way that would work.”
Adopt the same attitude if you want to succeed. After all, not everything is going to work out like you want it to. But you can learn something important from each mistake. And you probably won’t have to fail 1,000 times before you succeed!

4. When in doubt–go for it. Here is another bit from Edison; it’s a quote that pretty much says it all:
“Be courageous. I have seen many depressions in business. Always America has emerged from these stronger and more prosperous. Be brave as your fathers before you. Have faith! Go forward!”

5. Pretend you have already accomplished your goals. I have found that the best way to do this is to write down what it’s like to already be at the point in life that you want to be at. Write down how much you enjoy your new life, how you feel about it, how it has changed the various aspects of your life.

Just as importantly, write down how proud you are of yourself for the effort and skills you used to reach your goal.

You don’t have to make up events that never happened, if you don’t want. Simply write down how your persistence, consistent effort, and skills (it’s good to be specific here) carried you through to win the day. Thinking and feeling from the perspective of what you want to attain, is one of the most effective wealth secrets of all.
