Introduction: Your Mind is the Gateway to Wealth
Most people believe that making a million euros is about luck, talent, or having the right connections. The truth is, wealth starts in your mind before it manifests in your bank account. If you think like the average person, you will get average results. If you train your brain to think like a millionaire, you will start seeing opportunities for wealth everywhere.
This chapter will introduce scientific principles behind how your brain processes information, how successful entrepreneurs use psychology to attract money, and how you can reprogram your mind for financial success.

The Science of the Reticular Activating System (RAS)
Your Reticular Activating System (RAS) is a network of neurons in your brainstem that acts as a filter for information. Every second, your brain processes millions of bits of data, but your RAS determines what you actually focus on.
How the RAS Affects Wealth
If you constantly think, „Money is hard to make,“ your RAS will filter out opportunities and reinforce that belief.
If you train your brain to think, „Opportunities to make money are everywhere,“ your RAS will start highlighting those opportunities in your daily life.
Example of RAS in Action
Have you ever decided to buy a new car and suddenly started seeing that exact model everywhere? The cars were always there, but your RAS activated and made you notice them. The same applies to wealth-building opportunities—you must train your RAS to recognize money-making possibilities.

How Millionaires Train Their RAS for Financial Success
Many successful entrepreneurs didn’t start rich. They programmed their RAS to spot opportunities, solve problems, and take action. Here are the three key ways they do it:
1. Visualization & Mental Rehearsal
Neuroscience proves that visualizing success activates the same brain regions as actually achieving it.
Olympic athletes use mental imagery to enhance performance—you can use it to enhance wealth-building.
How to Do It:
✅ Every morning, close your eyes and visualize yourself making €1,000,000.
✅ Feel the emotions of financial freedom—see the numbers in your bank account.
✅ Your RAS will start filtering in real opportunities to match your vision.

2. Affirmations & Self-Talk Reprogramming
Your self-talk influences your subconscious beliefs about money.
Millionaires constantly reinforce positive financial affirmations.
How to Do It:
✅ Repeat these affirmations daily:
„I see profitable opportunities everywhere.“
„I am a magnet for wealth and success.“
„Making money is easy and fun.“
Why It Works:
Your RAS will align with your affirmations and begin noticing real-world opportunities that match them.

3. Exposure to High-Level Environments
The people you spend time with shape your mindset.
Millionaires surround themselves with other high-achievers who think in terms of wealth, not scarcity.
How to Do It:
✅ Join masterminds, business events, or online communities with high-level thinkers.
✅ Follow successful entrepreneurs and consume content that reinforces financial success principles.
✅ Avoid negative people who say, „That’s impossible.“
