When we discuss the “rich vs. poor mindset,” we often refer to the underlying attitudes, behaviors, and habits that shape our approach to life. These ingrained patterns can pave the way for success or hinder our progress, often without conscious awareness.
As David Meltzer points out, the “99 percent” often adopt a scarcity mindset, believing that resources are limited and competition is fierce. This perspective can lead to a self-fulfilling prophecy, as focusing on what we lack can attract more of the same. In contrast, the “1 percent” typically embrace an abundance mindset, viewing the world as a place of opportunities and possibilities.
