Want to be a millionaire? Start Pretending!!
|
Posted By: Hija Chang on March 15, 2026 Before more money shows up, your mindset has to shift. Take it from me, I pretended to be the millionaire I desired to become, until that very dream came true. It’s the very reason I continue to call myself a Billion Dollar CEO. I am shifting my mindset and tricking my brain to become the next level version of Ashley . (Also, I like to have very big goals that scare me.) 😂 You have to believe you are that person before the dream is ever actualized. The shift happens before the receipts! You don’t become wealthy the day the money hits your bank account. You become wealthy the day you know exactly what you’re going to do with that money when it arrives. The day you embody it all! The version of you that makes investments, commands the room, and builds generational wealth does not magically appear. That person is created, but here’s the plot twist: your brain responds to repetition, not your current circumstances. If you rehearse lack, doubt, and limitation; that identity will follow you, but if you rehearse ownership, discipline, and a million-dollar mindset, your decisions start rising to meet it. This is called “conditioning”, honey. 🤭 Make decisions like someone who expects overflow, speak from where you’re going, not where you currently are, and align your habits with the future you claim you want. You have to walk, talk, and operate like the person you desire to become. One day, what you practiced in the mirror becomes how the world experiences you. That’s when everything changes, and it’s all because you weren’t afraid to “pretend.” 😏 Image https://www.instagram.com/p/DSgYoKmmLAY/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ashleymfox1/ If you enjoyed this article, Join HBCU CONNECT today for similar content and opportunities via email! |
