“If you don’t pay, you probably won’t pay attention.” — Joe Polish

Your level of investment reflects your level of commitment.

When you invest in something, you begin to wrap your identity around that thing. The more invested you are, the more you see yourself as that thing.

If you invest in a cause, you’ll become incredibly committed to that cause. So much so that motivation is no longer an issue. Your level of investment compels you to do everything in your power to advance the cause.

Want evangelists? Get people to invest more into what you’re doing.

Want to become an evangelist yourself? Then invest more.

What about yourself?

How invested are in you in yourself? Said Jim Rohn, “Work hard at your job and you can make a living. Work hard on yourself and you can make a fortune.”

Very few people invest in themselves. Sure, they may buy a book or occasionally get themselves a massage. But again, their subconscious beliefs are limiting. You get in life what you subconsciously believe you deserve. As Dr. David Hawkins explains in his book, Letting Go: “If we have a small view of ourselves, then what we deserve is poverty. And our unconscious will see to it that we have that actuality.”

The more you invest in yourself, the more committed you’ll be to yourself and your own success. The more invested you are, the less entitled you feel. The more you become a giver and not a taker. And the world awards the giver.

By investing big in yourself (and you are, without question, your greatest asset) you shock your subconscious system. You forcibly tell yourself, “I am worth it. What I want matters.”
