In short
Myron Golden argues that the gap between people isn't money, talent or experience, but belief. He works through the idea that Satan's first temptation was a focus on lack, explains why he treats money as seed rather than cereal, and tells the story of how a karate friend got him reading the Bible at 16, which became the source of his certainty. Ends with his formula for success: accelerate into the curves.
Chapters
Key points
- 01
Belief, not money, is the gap
If everyone in the room would attempt more if they knew they couldn't fail, then the real reason they don't attempt more is belief, not resources or experience.
- 02
Control is an illusion
He says everything he plans is 'Lord willing,' and that a funeral reminds you how little control you actually have.
- 03
He never sells blessings
At 62 he says he has never once told anyone to give him money so God would bless them, because he doesn't believe it.
- 04
Lack was the first temptation
Satan told Eve to ignore all the trees she could have and focus on the one she couldn't, because focusing on lack perpetuates lack.
- 05
Don't eat your seed
The farmer who thinks his seed is cereal at planting time will be hungry at harvest, so he gives and invests without fear.
- 06
Confidence came before competence
People assume he is confident because he is good at things, but he says he is good at things because he first had confidence in a God who cannot lie.
Lines worth keeping
“How many of you would attempt more than you attempt right now if you knew you could not fail?”
The question that sets up the whole talk and exposes belief as the limiting factor.
“If God would have wanted you to start living when you got to heaven, you would have been born there.”
His case against deferring your assignment to the afterlife.
“I'm not holding on to the seed thinking that it's cereal.”
The image that captures his whole approach to giving and investing.
“I don't have faith in faith. I have faith in the one who is faithful.”
He locates his certainty in God's reliability rather than in positive thinking.
“Accelerate into the curves. Even when you don't know what's around the corner.”
His stated formula for success and the counter to driving with one foot on the gas and one on the brake.
What to do next
- 1
Own your assignment without waiting for anyone to release you to it.
He says you don't need someone else to understand your assignment, because nobody else can fulfill it.
- 2
Stop focusing on the one thing you lack and count the trees you can freely eat from.
Focus on lack perpetuates lack, which he calls Satan's master deception.
- 3
Treat the money you're meant to sow as seed, not cereal.
The farmer who eats his seed at planting time will be hungry at harvest.
- 4
Read the Bible and actually test what it says will happen.
He tested it promise by promise as a 16-year-old and found it worked exactly as written.
- 5
Accelerate into the curves instead of driving with one foot on the gas and one on the brake.
Worrying about whether it will work is what stalls most people's progress.
