We all knew it. T Harv Eker spells it out. Generating passive income is the key. This book inspired me to make the first step. I am an investor in stock market now.
I’m a money magnet, the phrase made me smile at first, but I use it ever since. Reading a biography of a successful entrepreneur is a good and valuable tip.

Skip the Live Seminar & Just Read this Book
Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2009
This is a great book for learning the mindset of millionaires. I know this as I work with hundreds of multi-millionaires and see the belief systems taught in this book in the behaviors and attitudes of my millionaire clients.
Enough said about the book... Let me tell you about the Live Seminar which is promoted in the book and which you are invited to go to for free with the coupon in the book. This T.Harv Eker MIllionaire Mind seminar is a HUGE Waste of Time!!!! I went to check it out as I have done seminars my whole life including many with the great Anthony Robbins, one of the greatest speakers of our time, Tony Robbins is a master of communication and teaching incredible skills and strategies for anything you want to achieve in life including financial wealth but this T. Harve Eker guy is not!!!....
T Harv Eker was only at his seminar for 1/2 a day of the 3 day seminar. When T. Harv did arrive he arrogantly came out on stage as if he was "The Man" and began to speak. I found he lacked creating any sort of rapport with the audience and never really connected with us. He would yell at people in the audience for leaving to go to the bathroom saying they were copping out by not staying in the room. And he would humiliate people with his comments. Its one thing to movitate someone with pain but what he did was not that at all. I noticed the audience reaction of getting a little ticked off at the guy's comments as well as people just falling asleep during their hour long sales pitches. Many participants in the audience had a problem with the guy as they told me so themselves and resented being sold @ 10 times a day during the weekend. I had never been to a seminar where I heard so many bad comments about the speaker before.
Now myself I know every phychological sales technique there is and this guy and his staff used them to manipulate and intimidate people to buy more of his books, tapes and seminars yet most of his staff were not millionaires... The 3 day weekend seminar was a huge sales pitch! They would reveiw a few things from the book which we already knew then tell you for the next hour to hour and half about some sort of seminar they have. From there they would create a sense of scarcity and fear to manipulate people to run to the back of the room and buy their seminar for a $1,000 - $4,000 or more. In their sales pitch they would say... we have the most famous or the most well know in the financial area at this seminar to teach you yet they would never tell you the guest speakers names...very secretive. Why? If I was going to spend $4,000 for a seminar I want to know who is teaching me and if they are so famous and great then telling us who they are will inspire more people to sign up. I found out from someone who went to one of his other seminars that in order to make the money they teach you to make in these other seminars you need to invest money in T.Harv's business recommendations of which I think he most likely makes money from as well. Not sure but it would make sense.
I must have been pitched 20 or more different things at this seminar in 3 days. I felt like the whole weekend was a huge waste of my time and I was watching infomercials all weekend.
I got very little out of this weekend seminar for the Millionaire Mind that wasn't in the book. Now, knowing Anthony Robbins material inside out, I noticed much of what was taught at T. Harv's seminar was stolen from Anthony Robbins seminars yet Harv Eker acted as if it as his own. Even some personal stories seemed to be very similar to Tony Robbins personal stories. Hmmmmm.... Only one thing he taught he gave Anthony Robbins credit for and it was a very elementary thing ( the legs of belief). Everything else was pretty much Robbins work yet done ineffectively by T. Harv from my expert opinion. Even the way the audience was warmed up to the exact stretching sequence routine was Tony Robbins stuff at T. Harv's seminar. Much of the same music was played also. I mean come on that kind of stuff you can switch up.
When it was time to do mental imagery, Eker read it from a piece of paper with much of the techniques again were from Anthony Robbins, but Harv and his staff couldn't quite pull them off like Tony. I have done mental imagery with large groups of people and when you know your stuff you don't need a piece of paper to read from. If you have done it so much you have it memorized in your head and you taylor it to your audience. When reading the imagery exercises of his paper, T. Harv had no emotion in his vocal tone to inspire people into emotion for making the mental changes he wanted from them. It was unimpressive to say the least.
I was completely unimpressed with T.Harv Eker as a speaker. Lots of EGO with this guy which was a turn off to me and believe me I have sat through some poor seminars in the last 30 years so I speak from broad experience. I was completely disappointed from the man I thought I knew and liked from this good Millionaire Mind book with the real man himself.
As a writer, T. Harve Eker is good and he should just stick to that in my opinion and stop ripping off other speakers material and ineffectively appling it in seminar.
Don't waste your time or money on his Millionare Mind seminar. I felt like I should have been compensated for my wasted time and weekend. As a person who has attended allot of seminars in my life attaining certifications as well with great speakers and teachers such as Anthony Robbins, Deepak Chopra, Wayne Dyer, John Grey, John Bradshaw, Jack Canfield and Mark Victor Hansen, Louis Hay, Suzy Orman, Ken Blanchard... I can say from comparison "Skip the Millionaire Mind Seminar." Instead stay home and read the book again! Even better buy those books of the Writers/Speakers I list above and read them!

This is a great read. I don’t know if it’s my heightened consciousness and the insatiable appetite for knowledge, but this is perhaps better than the books it quoted. It’s real and practical and outlined the limitations of poor mindset vs the richness of the abundance
mindset.
The one criticism of the book is that the author keeps promoting his marketing seminar, it’s as if the book is a cheap way to get people to take his course. It was a bit too much.

I wish I was taught the principles in the book when I was young
Reviewed in the United States on May 11, 2020
This book is about principles. Money principles that will spill into other domains of your life. If you're looking for a step by step action plan of how to become wealthy, this is definitely not the book. You won't walk away with a set of tools to begin implementing on your journey to wealth. He does make some recommendations like invest in real estate, start a network marketing business, go into sales, and even to continue in your profession as a business not as an employee. But it doesn't show you how to do those things and the author doesn't make the promise that you'll do those things.
However, if you have struggled to earn more or keep more of what you earn, you might find the same thing I did: Our money blueprint, like a thermostat, will hold us back from earning more unless we understand what our money thermostat is set to, and more importantly, why it's set where it is. This book has opened my eyes to much of the programming that has been running in my and my wife's subconscious. Within a matter of days after taking to heart the principles of this book, as if by magic, I started closing more sales, thinking about my business very differently, and lo and behold, having more cash in my bank (business and personal) than I ever had in my previous 15 years of marriage, or ever for that matter. I didn't have to attend his seminar, though many reviewers say this book is only a sales pitch to his seminar. I didn't start a new business, or go into network marketing (which has always been turned off).
I also didn't just sit my butt on the couch and vision-board my way to more money. Instead, I have worked my tail off in the last few months more than I have in years but I've enjoyed it like never before, all while having more time with my wife and kids (both-and vs either-or).
I read and listened to the book 4 or 5 times now and continue to challenge my beliefs and attitudes about money and by doing that, changing how I show up for everything. For example, I had an unspoken belief that I don't deserve to earn more than minimum living standards, so even though I believe my business's services are top tier, I showed up to sales with little to no energy and as if I didn't believe in my own service. If I did make sales, I somehow found ways to get rid of the money by hiring staff unnecessarily, or "investing" in things that didn't drive my personal or business growth forward. Like a thermostat that was set at a certain level, no matter how much came in, I figured out a way to get rid of it without even realizing why I was doing it so that I only had just above minimum living standards. But when I became aware of this belief, and realized it wasn't true, I started closing more sales, being more prudent with how I allocated my money, and noticing different opportunities within the business to improve and grow.
So who is this book for?
It's certainly not for those who will only see this book as a sales pitch for his seminar. Don't get me wrong, he mentions his workshop 1000 times in the book LOL! But if you can't see past that, and throw the baby out with the bathwater, than you might have some blind spots that need to be worked out before you pass judgement on this book. Again, I say this as someone who has ONLY read this book and not paid for any of this training, coaching, seminars, products, etc.
It's also not for anyone who is looking for something more than principles. This book teaches you high-level concepts about the wealth mindset of wealthy people and puts it in terms that anyone can understand. For example, most of us are taught to work hard for your money, some of us are taught to save, and few are taught to make your money work hard for you through investments. This was an eye-opener for my wife, but for me it wasn't. It was just a reminder of what I have already known. How to invest, who to go into business with, how to hire, which network marketing to join, how to ask for more money, get better at sales, manage your business, details about building out systems, none of that is addressed in detail in this book. For that, you'll need to find additional resources from other authors. Unless T Harv Eker offers follow up books or "dip your toes in the water" low cost offers. As of this writing, I don't know if he offers any of these. I know for sure other authors provide you more detailed tools and tactical concepts not found in this book.
This book is for individuals who are stuck in their efforts to grow their wealth even when they have invested incredible amounts of time and money on pursuits that haven't panned out. It's for anyone who's tired of working the hamster wheel and not sure how to get off.
This book is for you if you want to know how the rich get richer and the poor get poorer. Hint: it's not about opportunities --- though I won't deny that the wealthier you become, the more opportunities present themselves but I would counter that they have more opportunities because they've acted upon previous opportunities and applied a positive money mindset to those opportunities.
May this book open the door to a whole new world that awaits you on the other side. I've accumulated more money in the last 4 months, in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, than I ever did during two prior bull markets and even when earning more money. May the principles of this book do tenfold and hundredfold for you as it has done for me, whether you're in your twenties and fresh out of college, like me entering your 40's and wondering if the work you do has any meaning, or in your sixties wondering if it's too late.
It's NEVER too late. Unless you never take that first step.

There is a lot of truth to what is said in this book, changing yourself is paramount to changing your results. I think one of the most important parts mentioned in this book is the need to focus on becoming wealthy as a person and your actions....and allowing them to grow into the fruits you truly desire.
