1
There are people watching this video right now who will be wealthy in 10 years.
2
They don't know it yet, but the signs are already there.
3
The number one on this list shows up years before the money does, yet most people miss it.
4
Here are 15 signs you are going to be rich.
5
Welcome to Alux, the place where future billionaires come to get inspired.
6
Number 15: You're curious about how rich people got rich.
7
Most people study rich people's lifestyles, but you study the mechanics of how they got rich.
8
them to live that lifestyle.
9
You don't hate the rich because you can never become what you hate.
10
Instead, you're fascinated by how people build wealth because you want to do the same.
11
You don't dismiss it as luck and you believe building wealth is possible.
12
You read biographies, watch interviews, and see how others are able to build something of value even when they started with nothing.
13
At first, you want money because it solves money problems, but eventually you realize the deeper prize is freedom.
14
Freedom over your time, your location, your work, and who gets access to your life.
15
Our mind feeds on what it consumes.
16
If you consume reality TV, don't be shocked if your world is filled with drama.
17
If you consume financial content, don't be surprised how you're able to spot opportunities most people miss.
18
A clear sign that someone is going to be rich is a combination of two things: First, they have their interests aligned,
19
meaning they know where they're going. And themselves.
20
The fact that you're watching this video just proves that you are not like them.
21
Number 14: You're focused on increasing income instead of lowering spending.
22
You can cut your way to survival, but you have to earn your way to freedom.
23
There's a limit to how your lifestyle spending can go, but you've discovered that there's no limit to how much someone can earn.
24
So this is your new mantra: you just have to earn more
25
because you can't budget your way into a penthouse or a Ferrari.
26
As long as there are people out there buying supercars, yachts, and 10 million dollar plus homes,
27
you know it's The goal is not to buy what rich people buy,
28
the goal is to own what pays for it and then use that money to buy whatever you want.
29
If you want to score big, stop playing defense and go on the offense.
30
But increasing income is still not the final game.
31
The final game is turning income into ownership.
32
High income makes you comfortable.
33
Ownership makes you free.
34
Number 13: You're getting comfortable having uncomfortable conversations Poor outcomes come from expensive silence.
35
If you don't ask, the answer by default is no. So you're getting good at asking.
36
You're getting good at looking for options that move your life forward.
37
You're able to convince others to follow your lead and help you build things that are valuable.
38
You're not afraid to ask for money and you're not a people pleaser.
39
If you don't set your price or your terms, other people will set them for you.
40
Wealthy people understand that your terms are part of your wealth.
41
exit, the time commitment.
42
Bad terms can make a good opportunity poor.
43
Good terms can make a small opportunity life -changing.
44
What's a conversation that you've been avoiding that's quietly costing you?
45
12. You Think About Money As A Game Broke people think life is a movie.
46
Rich people treat it as a game.
47
Money is part of that game.
48
There are rules, resources, trades, and skills.
49
The better you are at playing the game of money, And like with most games, you don't hate the game once you learn how it's played and start having fun.
50
One of the signs that you're going to be rich is that you set financial goals for yourself and you achieve them.
51
Every wealthy person looks at life through this lens of: What is the next milestone I can get to?
52
Number 11: You're comfortable investing and betting on yourself The most valuable asset you have is yourself.
53
Nobody can take away what you know and what you're able to do, so double down on yourself.
54
You do not want to be the underdeveloped version of you.
55
Poor people see investing in yourself as a cost.
56
Spending money on books, courses, mentors, events doesn't have an immediate return.
57
This is what separates you from them.
58
You're compounding your understanding of how money works.
59
The money is already printed, you just don't know how to get it yet.
60
because every paycheck you got was proof that somebody else figured out a way to monetize your skills better.
61
People who invest in themselves report a 6 -8x return on investment in the first 24 months.
62
An executive coach charges $500 an hour.
63
The Alux app is free to try for 7 days right now.
64
Go to alux .com slash app to get the 7 -day free trial
65
and scan this QR code for 25 % off when you want to take it seriously.
66
We're on a path to make 1 ,000 new millionaires, and we've already crossed the first 100.
67
You could be next.
68
10. You have a mentor or follow people who are mentor -like
69
Sometimes the biggest upgrade in your life is not a new strategy, it's a new voice in your head, replacing the voice that wants to keep you where you are.
70
A good mentor shows you that what you're trying to do is possible because they did it.
71
And if they can do it, you can do it too.
72
Study them, but don't worship them.
73
Listen to their advice because chances are it might save you 10 years worth of mistakes.
74
Most of you don't have a network of mentors, but you can read their books, watch their interviews, or join apps like ALUX,
75
what you are trying to get through.
76
Number 9: You started making money early The earlier you make money, the more time you have to get good at making money.
77
Overnight success usually takes about 7 years and because you started early, time works in your favor.
78
You're learning quicker than your peers.
79
Getting comfortable with making money while young makes you unemployable later in life.
80
If you think of yourself as unemployable because you can't see yourself working for anyone else, Know that you are on your way to wealth.
81
Your income is the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with.
82
You figured this out earlier than most, so you stop talking money with people who only dream about it.
83
The people in your daily orbit shape your standards, your vocabulary, your sense of what's possible.
84
You didn't cut everybody off, but you became intentional with it.
85
You already started segmenting people in your life based on what your expectations are from that relationship.
86
You started seeking people who were one or two levels ahead of you, even if it meant being the dumbest guy in the room.
87
You've started to realize they're not actually smarter, they've just been playing the game longer than you.
88
Number 7: You're making small investments or building proof.
89
When you join a gym, do you jump to the heaviest weights?
90
Of course not.
91
You start off with what you can lift.
92
You do that at your current level and then as you progress, you increase the weight.
93
Broke people think you need to be rich to start investing.
94
That's like saying I'll go to the gym once I'm fit.
95
Notice how dumb that sounds?
96
Most people don't know how to invest because they never bothered to open an investment account.
97
Sure, you're not going to become a millionaire, but you're not going to be a millionaire by investing $10 a month, but it's a muscle that you keep training and as your income progresses the numbers scale with you.
98
The world doesn't reward what you intend to do, it rewards what you can prove.
99
Number 6: You know how much money you earn, spend and have in your account.
100
People who will be rich love metrics.
101
They love to measure things because you cannot improve what you do not measure.
102
So measure your money, measure your net worth.
103
There's if you've never calculated your net worth before.
104
Rich people do this monthly or have an automated tool.
105
As you keep measuring it, you get a better understanding of what moves it and in which direction.
106
That becomes your internal benchmark that you compare against.
107
This is how you know if this month was better than the one before it and if you're trending upward.
108
Number 5.
109
You possess a sense of urgency Reading about it isn't doing it, planning isn't doing it, talking about it isn't doing it for you so you start before you feel ready.
110
The thing doesn't get done if you don't actually do the thing.
111
We know, revolutionary, right?
112
But it's true.
113
Doing it today puts you ahead of every other person planning to do it tomorrow.
114
Another sign
115
that you'll be rich is the sense of extreme urgency - sometimes
116
even artificially created - about getting this done in the shortest time possible.
117
If it takes you six months to do something that would take you less than a day, we're sorry to break it to you, but you don't have what it takes.
118
4. Deep down, you know you're destined to be rich.
119
It's hard to explain it, but you've always known that you're gonna be rich.
120
It's just a matter of time until your reality catches up with your potential.
121
Everybody rich is delusional about this because it's part of the equation of success.
122
Self -confidence is the cheat code.
123
You've been programming yourself to think this way.
124
You know that: "We don't get what we want.
125
We get what we are." You're a self -fulfilling prophecy, so we become what we tell ourselves we should become.
126
Never lose sight of this.
127
Number 3: You're optimistic and solution -oriented.
128
There is a saying in Silicon Valley: "Pessimists sound smart, while optimists get rich." Optimism is not pretending there are no problems,
129
no, it's believing problems can be priced, solved, or turned into opportunity.
130
Nobody wants to be around someone who's only ever thinking about the worst, who says that nothing will work, who doesn't want to try anything new.
131
because they see a future employees cannot.
132
Number 2: You never give up Most success is just keeping something going for long enough and trying to make it better.
133
Eventually, something clicks.
134
The person who stays in the game longest eventually meets luck more often, and you only need to get lucky once for it to change your life.
135
It might take 5 years, it might take 20, but the chances of things working out in your favour if you never quit are quite high.
136
Persistence It's an unfair advantage when everything else gets served to us with a tap of a button.
137
Once you decide that this is what you want to do with your life, how can you quit after six months or even three years?
138
You said this is going to be your life, you know that if this works your family is taken care of.
139
And you dare to say you quit?
140
Number 1: You have the identity of someone rich.
141
Wealth shows up in behaviour before it shows up in the bank account.
142
It starts with not asking IF you can afford something, but HOW you can afford it.
143
The goal you set is not achievable on purpose, but it's directionally correct.
144
Every "no" is a data point, every roadblock is just the world trying to see how badly you really want it.
145
The biggest challenge early on in your journey is to stop thinking and seeing the world as
146
the lens of someone for whom becoming rich is inevitable.
147
You become rich twice - first in identity, then in reality.
148
The bank account is the lagging indicator - identity moves first.
149

150
Let us know in the comments.
151
And since this is a Sunday motivational video, here's your bonus: The only truly wasted time is time spent wishing.
152
The only truly wasted time in life is the time we spend wishing ourselves elsewhere
153
while life quietly waits to be lived right where you stand.
154
It's wasted time wishing ourselves to be someone else, while life gives us the opportunity to change right now.
155
You are under no obligation to be the same person you were yesterday.
156
This is the golden nugget of this video.
157
You build them, they don't just manifest.
158
For the true Aluxers ready to change, scan this QR code and we'll offer you a full year membership to the Alux app for only $99.
159
It's our way of saying thank you.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
