Identify the hidden conditions that block you from making money

Lack of money isn't random — it's emergent. It's the direct result of specific conditions you've set up in your life, often without realizing it. Your secret formula is the unique combination of things you learned or didn't learn, who you spend time with or avoid, and other life choices that interact to create your inability to make money at the level you want. Conditions are major life choices — choosing your mentor, your spouse, your job — that pre-make a bunch of other decisions for you and have long-term effects on your finances. You must first identify and disrupt those conditions before you can effectively develop money-making skills. Making money whenever you want is a higher-level skill that requires understanding and controlling the forces creating those emergent blocks — systematic ability, not occasional lucky success.
