So the big question is this, how do you become financially free in today's world where you can do what you love doing and spend time with the ones you love and provide for your family without being chained and selling your soul to a nine to five corporate America job without having to sacrifice going out to eat so you can pay off the debt faster. The question isn't, how do you save more? The question is how do you make more without spending more time? That is the question at this podcast has the answers. My name is Ryan Enk and this is Cash Flow Dad Life. What's up everybody? This is Ryan Enk with cashflow dad life and you are listening to podcast number four and you will like this episode. That's not a threat. I just said it like a threat just so you would listen because it's important. It's very important because what we're going to be talking about today is mindset and more specifically how to create a million dollar mindset. Now, why is that important? Everybody's like, look, you know, show me the strategy. Show me the strategies and I've got tons of strategies and I'll show you tons of strategies for making passive income, but here's the thing, you can know the steps, but if you don't have the right mindset, then you will fail it. Mindset is everything to go into different passive income producing strategies. So just to give you an example, like how many people would you say, "how many people would you say want to look good naked?"

And what is the difference between the people who want to be in shape and the people who actually are, is not the steps, it's not the strategy. The difference is the attitude, the mindset. OK? So we're going to be talking about in the next couple episodes, the right mindset. This is so important... What I'm going to give you are the, what I consider the four pillars of having a million dollar mindset. OK? So the first one that we're going to talk about today, the first and most important fundamental, a pillar of a million dollar mindset is gratitude. And that might strike you as a little surprise. Why is gratitude important? Here's an example, a story when I was a kid, when, I don't know how old I was, but as back when Nintendo a emerged on the scene, at first it was Atari and Atari was like amazing. How in actuality it just sucked, you know, to, you know, kids, it was just amazing. And then the... came out and was phenomenal. Well, I wanted an intended so freaking bad. Um, and so I asked my parents if they would give me an intend to do for my birthday. And their answer was no, we're not buying you a Nintendo, it's like 100 bucks. So I was like, OK, you know, my parents weren't poor. We were, you know, ma
