SECTION ONE
It All Starts With You and Your Belief System
There are 2 ways people think when it comes to money.
Some people think money is scarce, they think it is only for some special
people and some other people think there is plenty of it to go around if you
know how to reach out and grab your share.
The unfortunate news is that the majority of people think that money is
something that is scarce and that it is greed for them to even think of having
plenty of it.
On the other hand, a few set of people are the ones who don‟t just think that
money is plenty. They also believe that they have the ability to attract as
many as possible of it for themselves
Which of these 2 groups do you want to belong to?
Your answer is what is going to make the remaining contents of this report
useful.
Money is one subject that has a sense of irony attached to it.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

People spend all their entire lives working to get money. Yet, they behave as
if getting money is something that is either evil or is of little importance.
Have you heard the saying before that "money is the root of all evil?"
It is a saying that was developed and spread by people with a poverty
mindset. Meanwhile, the real saying which comes from the bible is that "the
love of money is the root of all evil"
This means when you love money so much that you want to acquire it by
any means possible, it drives you to pursue all sorts of evil means to get it.
But there is also another side of the coin that is often not talked about and
that is "the lack of money as well is the root of all sorts of evils"
Think about it.
A lot of people take to robbery, kidnapping, killing just because they lack
money and the only way they think they can get it is by force even when it
means attacking other people.
Money Is Not Evil
One of the beliefs you need to have about money is that it is not evil. Money
can‟t do anything all by itself. It is the handler of the money who determines
what it is been used for.
For instance, one person might use his money to build hospitals and schools
to help other people live better lives.
Another person will use the same money to assassinate and harm other
people.
It is said that money brings out the deep heart desires of a person. In short,
if you happen to be an evil person deep inside, you are likely to become
more evil when you lay your hands on a plenty of money.
At the same time, if you are a good person, you will definitely do more good
in life based on your heart desires.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

When you understand that money is not evil, you will feel confident in
learning about how to attract more money into your life.
Some several years ago, I attended a one-week boot camp and one of the
highlights of the boot camp had to do with financial freedom.
This single part of the boot camp is one of the powerful events that changed
my life.
The speaker who delivered the training for the financial freedom aspect of
the boot camp happened to be a Polytechnic graduate who now employs a
lot of polytechnic and university graduates.
How?
It was because he decided to figure out how to solve this mystery called
"money"
When the subject of money is raised, people suddenly freeze up and behave
as if you just raised a topic that has to do with killing babies.
One of the books he recommended to us during his speech was Napoleon
Hill‟s first bestseller, Think and Grow Rich
I quickly started searching all nearby bookshops to get a copy of this book
after the programme. I eventually got one after about 3 months.
I have now read Think and Grow Rich about 40 times but the first time I
read it, I couldn‟t understand a word of it.
Meanwhile, some of my friends and course mates started to "warn" me that
I was thinking too much about getting rich.
But really, is it a bad thing to think about getting rich and is not thinking
about getting rich the good choice?
Make no mistake about this – Thoughts are things. Your consistent
thoughts eventually have a way of manifesting in your life.
I could go on and on about this but the main lessons I need you to dwell on
from this section are:
1. There are two types of mindsets about money and whichever one you
choose eventually affects the flow of money to you. It is either youHow to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

have a poverty mindset or you have a prosperity mindset.
2. People with prosperity mindset believe that there is a lot of money out
there and they also believe that it is theirs. They treat money decently
and appreciate other people.
3. People with the poverty mindset believe that money is scarce, they
treat and handle money indecently and they hate people who are
wealthy which is why they remain poor.
ACTION PLAN – Make a decision today to make yourself prosperity
conscious. Get a copy of Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill and start
reading.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

Understanding Money and
Its Movements
One of the main problems that people have with money is that we often
think it is a bunch of special papers printed by the CBN.
Why is it that some people have a lot of money sometimes running into
billions whereas some other people struggle to even acquire tens of
thousands?
The first thing that we should be looking at is the mentality of scarcity or
plenty but that is not all.
The other thing is what I call the law of value and that brings us to the real
definition of money.
I think if you are going to be a live breathing cash machine, you have to
know exactly what money is and how it works. Most people really have no
idea what money is.
So, what is money?
I wasn‟t a good economics student while in school but I remember that in
economics, they taught us that "Money is primarily a medium of exchange or
means of exchange.
It is a way for a person to trade what he has for what he wants"
That means the more exchange a person does to get other people what they
want, the more money you make.
In case you don‟t, this is what it means – "Money is a means of
exchanging what you have for what you need."How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine
© 7Star Courses – All Rights Reserved www.7starcourses.com
Page 21 of 99
In short, what you want to use as exchange to get what you want has to be
something that is of value so that you can get value in return.
So, if you have a lot of lands for instance and you want money, all you have
to do is to sell the lands and get money for it. People who pay you money
are also getting what they want (the land) by using what they have (money)
If you want more money, then you simply sell more land.
Now, notice the way I used "land" in the illustration above to replace value.
This tells us that at any point in time, value equals money and money equals
value which gives us this equation.
Value = Money
It also leads to this understanding.
Small Value = Small Money
Big Value = Big Money
Plenty of Big Value = Plenty of Big Money
Let Me Explain Further:
Value is anything (either concrete or abstract) that can add value to the life
of another person by helping them to solve a problem or something that
helps them to enjoy and live a better life.
Let‟s say you discover a secret combination of chemicals for instance that if
mixed together in the right proportions and under the right conditions can
help cure breast cancer within 3 days of proper usage.
Now, that is value because there are so many people all over the world who
will give anything just to get over the pain of breast cancer.
You can sell this formula to a big pharmaceutical company who will pay you
millions of dollars for it.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine
© 7Star Courses – All Rights Reserved www.7starcourses.com
Page 22 of 99
Why would they do that?
They will pay you such a huge amount of money because they know that
such a formula can be sold to millions of people all over the world.
Let me use another example that is not too crazy like the breast cancer
thing to explain this concept of how value converts to money.
Let‟s say you are a musician and you come up with a combination of lyrics
and beats that is so sweet to the ears and even reaches deep into the soul.
You can now package the music and sell it to millions of people and that will
result in getting you a lot of money as well.
In the 2 examples I have given above, you will find out that a common
element is that you exchange value for money by bringing something
valuable to the marketplace.
So, what happens when you bring it to the marketplace?
You have to sell it. In short, selling is how value is been exchanged for
money. Think about these different value items I listed below:
You sell your products (e.g. clothes, electronics, books) to make
money.
You sell your skills and services to make money (e.g teaching,
consulting)
You sell your stocks, bonds, lands and other assets e.t.c to make
money...
What determines what you get in return for the value you are
exchanging are two things:
1. The Quality of the Value
2. The Quantity of the Value
First, let‟s talk about the quality of the value:How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine
© 7Star Courses – All Rights Reserved www.7starcourses.com
Page 23 of 99
This has to do with the ascribed importance that what you are offering has
as long as the buyer is concerned.
Here are some few examples:
o Why do people buy a particular brand of Champagne for N35,000 and
they won‟t even bring out N4000 to buy some other brands of
Champagne?
o Why do some schools charge as high as N700, 000 per year while
some other schools can‟t even charge up to N35, 000 per year?
o Why do some phones sell for as high as N300,000 while some struggle
to sell for only N15,000?
o Why does it cost N2 million to buy a plot of lands in some places when
you can buy a plot of land for N200, 000 in some other areas?
o Why does it cost up to N5million to do a heart surgery whereas you
may not pay up to N300, 000 for a minor surgery like when you want
to remove a lump on your back?
The difference is in the quality of
value that is been offered.
You need to understand this.
People will willingly pay a higher amount of money for something that they
perceive to be of higher value.
Secondly, let's talk about quantity:
The more quantity of value that you exchange by selling, the more money
you will make.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine
© 7Star Courses – All Rights Reserved www.7starcourses.com
Page 24 of 99
It is simple calculation. Right? Yet, a lot of people do not realize this simple
truth.
If you happen to be a barber for instance, there is only a limited number of
haircuts that you can cut per day.
If one hair cut cost N300, and you can only do 100 haircuts in a day even
when you are working at your max, then that automatically puts a lid on
your income.
In order for you to increase how much you are making per day, you will
have to cut more and since you can‟t do that alone, you will need to bring in
other people to help you.
If you do that, your income will continue to go up until you can no longer do
so.
That is usually the problem with people who make money by selling skills
and services that take a good amount of time to deliver.
If you are a teacher for instance, it is likely that your income won‟t be much
based on the quality or quantity of your service.
In order to increase your income, you will have to do any of the
following:
1. Improve the quality of value you are selling to what your marketplace
can perceive and pay higher prices for it.
2. Improve your system of selling so that you are able to sell higher
quantities and therefore make more money.
Let me explain the 2 options above by assuming that you are own a barbing
shop.
If you charge N300 per hair-cut for instance and you want to improve the
quality of your service to make more money, you may find ways to do so
like changing the seats in your barbing shop, putting an AC, a better TV and
cable for customers to enjoy e.t.c
With that, you may bump up your charge per haircut to N500 based on
feedback from your customers.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine
© 7Star Courses – All Rights Reserved www.7starcourses.com
Page 25 of 99
With this change in price, you will see that you only need 12 haircuts to
make N6000 whereas when you were charging N300, you would need 20
hair-cuts to make N6000.
Secondly, you need to sell more to make more...
Instead of improving your barbing services for instance and increasing the
price of your haircut to N500, you may increase the number of customers
that can be served at once in your shop.
So, let‟s say you spend 30 minutes on one customer, you can employ other
well trained barbers to help you so that that same 20 minutes can now be
spent on 3 customers.
At the end of the month, you will see that you have been able to make more
money that you were doing before and you have more money to invest in
your business just by increasing the quantity of value that you are selling to
people.
Value Can Be Abstract or Concrete
In the olden days, value was usually attributed to concrete things, that is
things you can see and touch but all that has changed in today‟s world.
As a matter of fact, in today‟s world, abstract things even command far
higher value than things that are concrete.
Look at software for instance. You actually can‟t touch a software but they
sell for outrageous amounts of money based on the function they execute.
What about a company like NIKE?
If you ask most people what Nike does, they will tell you that they are into
the manufacturing and marketing of sport wears but Nike does not
manufacture any sport wears. The only thing they do is the promotion of the
Nike logo which is a powerful brand. Other companies manufacture the sport
wears and use the Nike logo to brand them and sell millions.
Smart concept. Isn‟t it?How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

As at the time of writing this report, one of the top news in the business
scene is that Facebook acquired a company known as Whatsapp for a
whopping $19 billion.
By the way, what does Whatsapp do? Whatsapp is mainly a mobile software
that allows users of different phones to chat. Facebook acquired it for $19
billion because they had already built a super system with a massive 450
million users.
The lesson here is that when you start to think of the type of value you can
exchange in order to be able to make a lot of money, you shouldn‟t be
thinking about physical products only.
Value can be abstract things like advice, concepts, codes, ideas, trademarks
e.t.c
I think I have been able to explain this money concept properly. Let us now
move to the next chapter to talk about more important things.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

SECTION TWO
Start At the Beginning
One of the questions people ask frequently concerning the world we
live in is when exactly was the beginning?
My personal answer to that is – the beginning was whenever the earth
was created.
What does this have to do with you becoming a cash machine?
Everything we do in life has a beginning.
There was a time you began to walk.
There was a time you began to go to school.
There was a time you began to read and write.
There is also a time you will begin to turn yourself into a live breathing
cash machine and that time could be now if you so desire.
In short, you have to start from somewhere and this section is all about
helping you to have a good understanding of where you are right now
and how to proceed from there. How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

Where Are You Now?
What are you doing at the moment to improve your financial life?
Are you in school studying a course with the hope of graduating and getting
a job in an oil company?
Are you an apprentice trying your hands on a skill that you hope to turn into
an income generating revenue?
Are you a small business owner hoping to grow and become big someday?
Are you an employee working at a job you do not like just because you want
to pay the bills with the hope that you will be promoted one day and earn
more?
Whatever the case may be, I want you to observe a common word in all the
scenarios above?
That word is HOPE.
That is what most people do. They hope that things will get better and while
it is good to hope, the truth is that you need something better and stronger
than just hoping.
I have mentioned it before. You need a burning desire.
This is where you start from?
Here is a question you need to ask yourself right now:
"How bad do I really want to become a live breathing cash MACHINE?"
If your desire is not as hot as it should be, no problem. You can work on it.
You can develop a burning desire and that is where you should start from.
If you are reading this and you already have a burning desire to succeed,
then you need to move ahead with the rest of the things I will be sharing
with you.
What is Your Target?
There are various levels of live breathing cash machines. How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine
© 7Star Courses – All Rights Reserved www.7starcourses.com
Page 29 of 99
Some people can generate up to N100m within a week when they need it.
Some can only generate N1m within a week.
Some can only generate N100k within a week.
These are different levels and each level is based upon the mindset,
understanding, network and skills of that person.
Which level do you intend to get to?
People who are able to generate up to N100m within a week operate at a
higher level than people who can only make N1m a week at their maximum
capacity.
That means they put in more effort.
One of the things that would determine the kind of results you can generate
and how big you can think is your environment.
Back in 2010, I was living in my hometown, a small town where you can get
a comfy, 3 bedroom apartment for around N200,000 a year.
If you decide to eat outside, you can have breakfast, lunch and dinner for
about N1,200 in total.
If you use public transport, you can‟t spend more than N400 per day and if
you have your own car, you do not need more than 10 litres per day to run
your errands within the town.
People who earn about N200,000 and above in a month can live lavishly
based on what I just told you.
I knew what I wanted but my environment wouldn‟t allow my thinking to
enter that range so, one day I was reading a book authored by Rev. Sam
Adeyemi of Daystar Christian Centre.
In the book, he said something like this: "If you want to catch a whale, you
can‟t do it hunting in the stream around your house. You have to go out into
the sea where the whales are"
That was it.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

Page 30 of 99
I packed my belongings and moved to Abuja. Living in Abuja actually
broadened my thinking. I saw life from a different perspective. My thoughts
began to change.
Where I only needed about N70,000 to pay for a year rent in a self-
contained apartment in my hometown, you had to pay about N200,000 for
the same type of apartment in Abuja.
That pushed me to improve on my money making skills.
Why am I telling you all these?
It is because your decision about how far you want to go is eventually going
to affect the types of plan you make, the people you meet and actions you
take.
So, how far do you want to go?
How far do you want to develop your cash machine abilities?
Answer that question right now before you move ahead.
Learn to Be a Good Thinker:
Once you have been able to decide where you are right now in terms of the
level of your desire and how far you want to go, the next thing is to start to
work on your thinking immediately.
Why?
The most powerful part of your body is your brain but unfortunately, that is
the part that is usually under-developed in most people.
If most people will pay more attention to developing their brains the way
they develop their bodies by going to the gym, the world will be a better
place for them.
How do you develop your brain?How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine
© 7Star Courses – All Rights Reserved www.7starcourses.com
Page 31 of 99
There is only one way to develop any part of your body and that is by
activating the law of use and disuse.
Law of Use and Disuse: This law states that any part of your body that
you stop using begins to die and any part that you use consistently
continues to develop in nature.
Think about it.
Look at the body structure of a carpenter for instance and a banker who sits
at his desk all day long and does not even go to the gym.
Over time, the body of the carpenter will become stronger and well
developed while the body and muscles of the banker will become weaker.
The same thing applies to your brain. If you consistently exercise it by using
it the right way, it will get stronger and will produce better results.
How do you exercise your brain?
By thinking of course.
Unfortunately, this is one activity that people avoid on a daily basis. Thomas
Edison, who is usually known as the greatest inventor of the new world we
live in said "There is no expedient to which a man will not go to avoid the
real labor of thinking."
The ability to think can help you get solutions to different kind of problems in
life. That is if you really know how to think because what most people refer
to as thinking is usually not thinking.
I think this is why Billionaires like Bill Gates all agree that one of the
important things that is not been taught to people in school is the fine art of
programming.
Why?
The reason is because programming forces you to think.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

Page 32 of 99
Live breathing cash machines are people who know how to think and who do
a lot of productive thinking.
This should become one of your habits too.
How Well Can You Think?
I can never forget a time in my life when it looked as if everything was
crashing right before me.
It looked as if I couldn‟t move forward no matter what I did. All the money I
had was N5 which was carefully tucked in the middle of my bible and it had
already spent 3 months there.
It was around this time that I remembered a powerful statement I read from
one little book written by Bishop David Oyedepo of Winner‟s Chapel.
The statement says:
"If you can think enough, what you have is enough"
What do you think about that?
Does it sound powerful to you?
That statement is one of the most powerful statements I have ever come
across and it is 100% true.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

But how best it works for you is going to depend on the state of your brain.
That is why you need to start putting your brain to use in various situations
right now so that you can get it stronger.
You can‟t become a live breathing cash machine without the ability to think.
Thinking produces ideas and ideas are what eventually leads to plans that
produces money.
Also, the quality of the ideas you get is based on the quality of your
thoughts.
How do you get quality thoughts?
First Within, then Without
Like I said, the quality of the thoughts you think lead to the quality of the
ideas that come to you.
One of the common sayings in programming is GIGO which is "Garbage In,
Garbage Out" in full.
This means a computer will give you an output based on the data that you
put into it. If you put in invalid data, it is also going to give you an invalid
output.
This is exactly how the human mind operates as well.
When you feed the human mind with high quality input, it will also give you
high quality output in terms of the thoughts you get which eventually leads
to high quality ideas.
So, how do you get high quality input into your mind?
There are various ways to get high quality data into your mind since
everything that enters into the mind is usually through the five senses which
are:How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

Page 34 of 99
- Sight
- Smell
- Touch
- Sound
- And ...Taste
All these senses have a way of sending in data into your mind either you like
it or not.
For instance, when you taste a type of vegetable for the first time and it is
bitter, your mind stores that data so that when you come across the same
vegetable again, your mind quickly generates an output to remind you that
this vegetable leads to something uncomfortable (bitter in the mouth)
However, the two senses I want to talk about here are that of sight and
sound.
Why?
It is because these two senses are the main gateways that we use to get
information into our minds.
Sight – Take this book you are reading now for instance, you are taking all
this information in with the aid of your eyes before your brain interprets it.
The same thing happens when you read a magazine, a newspaper, an article
etc.
The same thing also happen when you see a picture of anything as well. As a
matter of fact, it has been discovered that in most cases, the mind is able to
easily interpret pictures than words.
Sound – how do you know when someone is calling your name? A particular
sound goes in through your ear and is interpreted by your brain.
The same thing happens when you listen to your radio, when someone is
talking to you or when you are listening to an audio recording.
Atimes, your sight and sound senses work together at the same time like
when you are watching the TV or looking at someone and listening to them
at the same time.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

Since information can be passed into your mind mainly via these two senses,
that tells us that you need to do two things if you want to increase the
quantity of quality thoughts that you get.
The two things are:
1. Reduce the amount of bad information that you allow into your mind
every second.
2. Increase the amount of high quality information that you allow into
your mind.
Let's talk about bad information – this reminds me of a story I read in a
book about when the depression hit the US hard around 1930. There was a
man who owned a bakery business and his business was doing so well. He
didn‟t listen to the radio and he didn‟t read the newspaper so he didn‟t know
there was a depression.
All was going good until his son came home from school one day and told
him something like "Dad, how come you are doing all these business when
the economy is bad? Don't you know people are losing their jobs and people
are going out of business?"
He then went ahead and exposed the man to all sorts of data about how the
economy was crashing and soon enough, the man started to think about
these things and his business started to decrease until he went out of
business.
The best sources of bad information has always been from people around
you and the news.
If you have a lot of negative people around you, your journey to becoming a
live breathing cash machine will be a difficult one because these people are
going to influence you over and over with the negative data that they
consistently program into your mind.
The same thing happens with the news. While it is a good thing to have an
idea of things that are going on around you, you should limit the amount of
news that you feed on and you should train yourself not to dwell upon them.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

Feed Massively on Good Information:
You can program your mind in such a way so that it can always spit out high
quality thoughts and ideas.
You can do so by intentionally surrounding yourself with big thinkers, people
who consistently shower you with positive words and who believe in you and
let you know it.
You can do so by intentionally and consistently feeding your mind with
excellent and prosperity implying pictures.
You can do so by listening to audio recordings that are filled with valuable
information that can motivate you or help you get better in life.
You can do so by attending seminars, conferences and events where you are
exposed to information that help you think bigger, get better and do better
in life.
You can do so by reading books, reports and manuscripts that help you to
develop the mindset of an unstoppable live breathing cash machine
Become a Reader
Let‟s talk about reading.
About 10 years ago, I heard the following statements I am about to list
below for the first time and these statements affected me deeply:
Statement One – Readers are Leaders and Leaders are Readers.How to Turn Yourself Into a Live Breathing Cash Machine

Statement Two - The more that you read, the more things you will know.
The more that you learn, the more places you'll go." ― Dr. Seuss, Author of
I Can Read With My Eyes Shut!
Statement Three – If you want to hide anything valuable from a black
man, hide it in a book because he won‟t read it.
If you look closely at men who have succeeded greatly, one of the things
you will notice about all of them is that they usually have a library filled with
books.
They are always book junkies.
Why?
Let me give you a quote from Joseph Addison to answer why.
Some months ago, my very good friend and mentor, Akin Alabi just bought
a big house worth millions of naira.
I and a few friends went over and he was showing us around the house. One
thing that caught my attention was his huge library of books. Only God
knows how much this man has spent buying all sorts of books on success,
motivation, leadership, business and marketing.
No wonder he is a multi-millionaire and no wonder he is a rare live breathing
cash machine.
Apart from thinking, another productive activity that people avoid is reading.
Reading expands your mind. Reading strengthens your imagination...and
reading helps you to understand and master a lot of things.
If you want to become a huge live-breathing cash machine, you can‟t do
without reading.
