TMS #068: The Power of Your RAS

How To Build Wealth With Your Reticular Activating System

Read time: 3 minutes

Picture yourself walking down the street, lost in your thoughts, navigating the ups and downs of being an entrepreneur. Suddenly, you see a coin glinting on the sidewalk, and you pick it up. Luck? Possibly.

But there's a powerful force at work behind the scenes, your brain's very own master filter called the Reticular Activating System (RAS).

Understanding your Secret Weapon: The RAS

Our brainstem has a part called the RAS, which helps us focus on things we care about. In our minds, it's like a spotlight in a dark theater. It shows what's important and hides the rest. The RAS helps you see the world through your own perspective, shaped by your subconscious mind.

Clarifying your Financial Goals: Be Specific, Be Measurable

Starting a business is fantastic, but remember, you're not just building a business. You're building a movement, a future, and a legacy. To turn your ideas into money, you must set clear, measurable financial goals. Ask yourself, "How much do I want to earn in a year? What do I need to achieve this financially?"

Being specific with your financial goals provides clear direction for your RAS. It starts to ignore distractions and focus on what matches your goals. Here are some actionable tips:

  • Set both short-term and long-term financial goals

  • Break down large objectives into manageable tasks

  • Apply the SMART goal framework: Specific, Measurable, Achievable, Relevant, and Time-bound

Now, to reiterate this exercise's effectiveness – write down your goals. Make them visible. Review them regularly. You'll feed your RAS with the right information, reminding it of your priorities.

Spotting Lucrative Opportunities: Train Your RAS

As young entrepreneur, training your RAS can mean the difference between perceiving a setback as a disaster or an opportunity. You can always grow by focusing on and taking advantage of opportunities to build wealth.

Here's how you can tailor your RAS to be an opportunity-magnet:

  • Network with successful entrepreneurs and share your ideas

  • Strive to be an expert in your chosen industry or business

  • Never stop learning. Read, attend webinars, and invest in personal development

Also, don't forget to stay updated. Information is power. If you understand your industry well, you can find and take advantage of good opportunities.

Cultivating a Wealth Mindset: Think Abundance

Let's get real. Sometimes, our mindsets can get in the way of reaching our financial goals. Your mindset is the software operating your RAS hardware. A wealth-creating mindset is rich in positivity and the spirit of abundance.

Consider these tips to develop an abundance-oriented mindset:

  • Surround yourself with successful individuals who inspire you

  • Keep a gratitude journal to celebrate your wins, however small

  • See challenges as opportunities in disguise, not as roadblocks

Incorporate daily practices like visualization, affirmations, and expressions of gratitude. These practices will become ingrained in your mind and shape your thoughts. In the end, they will program your RAS to support your goals of building wealth.

Wrapping Up and Taking Action

Knowing and using your Reticular Activating System can help you make more money. When it comes to harnessing your RAS power, one thing is clear. Intention, knowledge, and determination are the keys to success.

To achieve financial success, you need to set clear goals, recognize opportunities, and have a wealthy mindset. It's high time you tap into the incredible power of your RAS to make your visions of wealth a reality.

You're crafting your future. You build your legacy. You've got this!
