Default Millionairemind Intensive 3 Day Weekend

The first ever one in the UK is starting Friday morning. I have a free ticket and at first I was looking forward to it until I researched why there were so many other free tickets available. I am in serious debt and there is travel and hotel for 4 nights to be taken into consideration if I choose to attend. I already read the book and watched all the videos online. Most of the reviews I read were probably written by affiliate members and the ones who wrote less favourably of the seminar complained about there being too many sales pitches for further courses.


Anyone reading this been to one of those seminars and able to give an honest review? I will not be paying for the subsequent courses, I am only going because the ticket is free and I want to be inspired and guided to make money.

I've gone to three of Harv Eker's Millionaire Mind Intensive seminars. The book is one I've read cover to cover, passed along to friends and colleagues and still find something that will apply to my life everytime I re-read it. I try to take someone new with me every time to share the experience.

Reasons why I'm a better person for going to this specific seminar:

I'm a much better money manager
Break through old beliefs about money and my past/excuses
Absorb the book's material from a live person/trainer and from my peers in the audience. Hearing and seeing and reading helped me to absorb the principles.
Faced some of my biggest obstacles during the course.
Motivation to apply the things I've learned in my real life, beyond another book.
Meeting like-minded people, the face to face could be the most important factor that the live course will give you that you can't get from a book
I've made it a habit to attend conferences and in person events related to personal development and subjects I'm interested in at least on a quarterly basis because I value education and involvement with others
There were things that I read or that I "knew" but until I went and did some of the exercises in the course that things fully clicked and things started moving forward.


Things to consider:
Travel costs, to be fair if you barely have living costs you shouldn't be going! There are always ride sharing and hotel/room shares that can lower the costs.
No sense in hurting your situation hoping any event will magically solve your most immediate issue. I do at least recommend that you attend some kind of in person event or workshop that does fit for budget or time needs. It always helps to have other like-minded people around and supporting you. Sometimes I go to events like that and think wow, I didn't know there were so many great people right around me with the same interests and beliefs!

It is very clear that the free tickets are for a high value course and his goal is to attract the right kinds of clients for his further course offerings. The MMI takes resources to put on, lots of cash. I think it was 60k to book the space one city I attended and lots of time from a very talented group of people, there should be a way for people who've never learned or experienced his courses the chance to take them if they are in a position to.

If the idea of selling his other courses upsets you or really gets under your skin, there's a lesson in that. Step outside of that feeling to ask where did this particular belief about money or selling came from? Why do I still hold it? What is this belief serving? Is this belief serving me to get to the fulfillment/success I want? Yes the courses cost money. All education costs something.

I have been to lots of courses through peak potentials (Harv's Company). Eight courses including the MMI.

My sincere opinion.

The free course is worth every cent spent to get there. His other courses cost an arm and a leg. Although I did receive a lot of value from his courses, I have realized that you can get the same value from books, other seminars (which do not cost as much), being around like mined people, etc... The biggest value I get from his other courses is being in a room full of like minded people. The people you meet the conversations you have will be wonderful.

I believe that if you are already very familiar with metaphysics and belief changing, etc... You might not get as much out of it. However if this is an intro to you for this stuff, it will change your life.

Everything happens for a reason. The fact that you have even manifested this into your life says something about you. If you can go, go. If not the universe will provide you with another opportunity to grow into that place, but you must take action. However there is never one thing that makes or breaks your entire life. The universe is here to support you. Do what is in your best interest at this time.
