People who are poor and wealthy speak in different ways.
They have always done so. The conversation is the foundation of all wealth. What we say, how we say it, and how certain we are of what we say.
The container that holds the results is vision. Poverty-based thinking focuses on identifying problems rather than providing guidance or solutions. People’s thinking is influenced by how they speak.
Words are simply an outward projection of how we see the world, and they can be a major deciding factor in whether or not we enjoy the success of financially independent life.
Poor people speak with an “I can’t” attitude
The findings on how people feel about themselves when they are poor may be more damaging in the long run. They are less confident in their abilities to succeed, which leads to lower professional and educational attainment, as well as depression and anxiety. The study also found a “negative self-stereotyping” effect, in which people living in poverty absorbed popular media stereotypes of people on benefits or facing unemployment as being “low in warmth and low incompetence.”
Because they believe they are fundamentally flawed, any success is tempered by a lack of confidence and subconscious self-loathing.

Rich People Always Talk to Set Attainable Goals
The written formulation of goals was important for many of the interviewees. Some of these wealthy people took to heart the advice given in popular wealth literature. They set themselves specific financial goals and deadlines to meet them.
An astonishing number of interviewees described a detailed goal-setting process that they used once a year. They took the time to define milestones for the coming year while also reviewing the goals they set for the previous year to assess their progress.
Poor people mostly say – “I don’t have much time”
The poor are often depicted as having “nothing but time,” but this is a stereotype. Many poor people are under extreme time pressure because money and time are intertwined resources.
When you have a lot of money, you can put it to good use by saving time. Dishwashers, washing machines, cleaners, cooks, and babysitters are all examples of the vast commercial and social service sector that assists the wealthy in saving time. People in poverty have the opposite experience, spending time-saving money.
According to social mobility research, it is critical to connecting with people from various socioeconomic groups. However, if you don’t have free time, you won’t be able to meet and connect with others.
Rich People Are Willing To Take Risks
If you want to become wealthy, you must be willing to take risks. There are no two ways about it. There isn’t a single wealthy person who hasn’t taken risks in their lifetime.
These wealthy people understand the importance of acting even when they are unsure of the outcome because they know that the greater the risk, the greater the reward.
Fear, whether you realize it or not, serves to keep us from trying new things because, as humans, we prefer safety. Because safety is a good thing, it is always preferable to take calculated risks. However, if you are constantly looking for ways to stay safe and avoid failure, you may remain poor.
Poor People Are Always Complaining
People who are broke complain. People, politics, money, and everything else in general. Don’t get caught up in a discussion about what’s wrong; instead, look for ways to contribute to a solution.
There is a significant difference between the wealthy and the impoverished. It’s not that wealthy people never complain, that there’s never a time when they don’t know something, or that they never feel pressed for time. The wealthy simply see things differently and ask different questions, and then they commit to a different conversation.
To break the habit of complaining, you must first understand your worth. This will give you the ability to conserve your time and energy over things over which you have no control.
Poor People Say- “They are lucky, whereas I am not.”
Some people believe that wealth is a game of chance. They may claim that someone else was simply “lucky,” that it was because of the family they were born into, or that they simply met the right person. That is the scarcity mindset, the most powerful destroyer of wealth.
Scarcity thinking puts people in a survival mindset and leads to the belief that the game is always rigged, causing them to focus on what others are doing right or wrong rather than what they can do for others. Most people today are not wealthy because of circumstances such as birth, marriage, prize money, or any other type of “luck.” According to John Bowen, 92 percent of people with a net worth of more than $5 million own a home.
If you want something done correctly, you must do it yourself
This happens when people lack trust in others, don’t spend enough time with the right people, or lack the hiring skills. If you want something done correctly, find someone who can do it better, especially if it drains you. This is a jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none mindset.
This is working hard but not doing your best. Due to constraints, this limits the possibility of constructing something substantial.
