Many people sit and think about why other people are more successful or earn more money than them. And in this situation it's very easy to play the blame game. Maybe they are luckier, or better educated, or were born into a rich family. Or maybe they are smarter, better looking or younger.

This is the same as playing the victim – I'm not lucky, my parents were poor, I didn't go to a good school. And of course the end outcomes are the same too.

There are many reasons why you may think someone is more successful than you. But the truth is that your beliefs about success, whether it be financial achievement or other form of achievement, actually form the foundation of your reality. And this is where it is self-defeating playing the blame game or by thinking of yourself as a victim of historical social inequities.

To move forward, you need to understand that you are where you are because of your beliefs about life, success and money. And if these beliefs haven't taken you where you want to be, then you need to change your beliefs about life, success and money.

It may sound simple to just change your beliefs, but they are usually so heavily ingrained in your sub-conscious that it actually takes a bit of brain training to reprogram your subconscious mind.

And to reprogram your subconscious mind, you need to know what the existing program is. So begin by writing down all the thoughts and beliefs you have about life, success and money. How many of these beliefs do you think help you create success and happiness, and which ones hold you back? Now if you can, interview someone successful and establish their beliefs on life, success and money. How many of their beliefs do you think helped them create their success and happiness? Do you see a trend?

It's now time to write your new program. Write down a list of beliefs you need to establish in your own mind to create the life you want. Use positive words, so rather than saying "I will not waste money on trivial expenses", say "I only spend money on wise purchases". The difference is that the first statement focuses on 'wasting money' where as the second focuses on 'wise purchases'. It's important to keep the focus on the positive.

Now the reprogramming process takes some time. You can help by reading these statements to yourself every night and morning. Read them out loud with conviction. Also use the technique of visualization to help your mind focus on what you are really trying to accomplish. Using your list of new beliefs, visualize what your life will look like if these beliefs became your reality. Hold this mental image as long as you can.

Be diligent and perform the above re-programming techniques every day for at least one month and see how your attitude, and your life, begins to change.

Remember, beliefs are the foundation of what will manifest in your life. So make these beliefs be the basis of a life of success and happiness. If you find yourself slipping back into those old beliefs, then stop and re-connect with the enabling beliefs you wrote above.
